qwant news | Cogent Security launches autonomous vulnerability response tools as AI-assisted exploits outpace scanners - SiliconANGLE
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Cogent Security, a startup that uses AI‑driven agents for vulnerability management, announced two new platform features—Zero Day Response and Autonomous Remediation—designed to shrink enterprise vulnerability response times from weeks to hours. Zero Day Response instantly identifies exposures as soon as a public advisory appears, leveraging CVE, pre‑CVE, and supply‑chain disclosures and scoring each finding against the customer’s own environment. Autonomous Remediation then creates a tailored fix plan for each affected asset, runs a pre‑flight business‑impact assessment, and applies the remediation with optional human approval, verifying the fix afterward. Cogent says its Fortune 500 customers have cut the mean‑time‑to‑remediate critical vulnerabilities by 97%, noting that exploit development has accelerated dramatically—average time from disclosure to a working exploit fell from 125 days in early 2025 to under a day by April 2026, with many exploits appearing before scanner signatures are released. The launch is accompanied by research highlighting this “detection gap” and underscores the need for security teams to match the speed of AI‑empowered attackers.

This won't be the end of this controversy, but a California court did not dismiss claims against Bain Capital over the PowerSchool data breach. In considering the timeline and the private equity firm's actions before and after its acquisition of PowerSchool in 2024, the court noted, in part:
"Post-closing, Bain directed PowerSchool to offshore cybersecurity, engineering, and IT functions to contractors, including offshoring required data-management tools that enabled vendors to bypass consent protocols and access protected school district computers directly.
Bain failed to assess data-breach risks from the offshoring it directed.
Post-closing, Bain directed layoffs of at least 5% of PowerSchool’s workforce, including critical domestic IT staff."

yahoo news | Bain Capital's data center unit removes disgraced tenant suspected of smuggling ...
Bain Capital’s Bridge Data Centers (BDC) has ended its contract with Megaspeed International at the Malaysian campus, reallocating the 68.4 MW of power capacity previously assigned to the tenant to U.S.–based cloud provider Zenplayer. Bloomberg reports that BDC informed its lenders in February, as part of a $2.8 billion credit line arrangement, that Megaspeed would no longer occupy the space, while Zenplayer will assume the 64.8 MW allocation. The notice did not give a specific reason, but its distribution to financial institutions suggests BDC wants to demonstrate that it does not work with companies under suspicion of illegal activity.
Megaspeed came under intense scrutiny after a New York Times investigation in October 2025 alleged the firm smuggled restricted Nvidia AI accelerators—such as H100 and H800 GPUs worth up to $2 billion—into Indonesia and Malaysia for Chinese customers. The company, founded in 2023 with backing from the PRC government, procured the hardware through Aivres Systems, a U.S. subsidiary of Chinese tech giant Inspur, which had previously been sanctioned for supplying supercomputing hardware to the Chinese military. A late‑2024 inspection by the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security found sealed Nvidia servers at Megaspeed’s Malaysian site, indicating possible diversion plans, and by mid‑2025 Megaspeed halted all Nvidia purchases and its CEO disappeared.
Removing Megaspeed helps BDC limit heightened U.S. government scrutiny as the race for high‑end AI compute intensifies between the United States and China. Maintaining compliant, stable tenants is crucial for BDC’s financing, especially as it seeks additional capital to expand in Thailand and scale operations in Malaysia amid a regional data‑center market projected to attract roughly $800 billion in investment by 2030. By replacing a suspect tenant with Zenplayer, BDC aims to preserve lender confidence and demonstrate adherence to export‑control regulations while positioning itself for growth in the booming AI‑driven data‑center sector.
China-linked multi-billion dollar neocloud provider essentially ceases to exist.
