Endpoint Management Gains Prominence in Cybersecurity

Endpoint management has gained prominence in cybersecurity, with companies rethinking strategies that for years focused solely on the network perimeter. According to Verizon's 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report, the exploitation of unpatched vulnerabilities has become the primary initial attack vector, appearing in 31% of the breaches analyzed and surpassing stolen credentials for the first time. The median time to remediate critical flaws rose from 32 to 43 days, and only 26% of these vulnerabilities were fully remediated in 2025, highlighting organizations' challenges in incident response.

Cameras that already "sign" photographs to prove they are not AI

Some cameras already include "authenticity credentials" (Content Credentials) based on the open C2PA standard, which function as digital signatures to verify the origin of an image and track its editing history. The Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity, founded by Adobe and other technology and media companies, developed this technology to combat the growing difficulty in distinguishing real photographs from AI-generated images.

Skill-Hub applies AI to prospecting and challenges Meta Ads

Brazilian advertisers using Meta Ads face an average 12.15% cost increase since January 1, 2026, when the platform started passing on federal taxes like PIS/Cofins and ISS to clients, reducing the advertising space purchased with the same budget. Meanwhile, the real estate sector recorded the highest annual cost-per-click increase in 2026, at 27.27%, followed by personal services and health and fitness. Skill-Hub emerges as an alternative by applying artificial intelligence to prospecting, in a scenario of increasingly competitive advertising auctions, where law firms lead the cost-per-click with an average of US$8.58 on Google Ads.

"Everlasting chemicals": there is another potential risk hidden in the artificial intelligence boom

Artificial intelligence can be a valuable tool for identifying, understanding and eliminating PFAS, known as "everlasting chemicals", but the growth of the AI industry itself is significantly increasing the production and use of these chemicals harmful to the environment and human health, creating a paradox where the technological solution simultaneously contributes to the problem it aims to solve.

"Eternal chemicals": another potential risk hidden in the artificial intelligence boom

Researchers warn that, although artificial intelligence can be a valuable tool for identifying, understanding and eliminating PFAS (known as "eternal chemicals"), the exponential growth of the AI industry itself is simultaneously increasing the production and use of these harmful chemical compounds for human health and the environment. The article explores this apparent contradiction: on one hand, AI offers hope in the fight against chemical contamination; on the other, data centers and the infrastructure needed to sustain this technology depend on materials that contribute to the problem.
