With a new integration built on @AnthropicAI's Compliance API, @zenitysec now extends its AI agent security and governance platform to Claude Enterprise. Security teams get visibility into what #agents are doing inside Anthropic's #enterprise platform, with governance over the tools agents use, threat detection, and audit trails. Learn more below.
Zenity now integrates with @AnthropicAI to extend AI agent security and governance to Claude Enterprise. As Claude agents take on increasingly operational roles like writing and committing production code in Claude Code, acting on behalf of employees in Cowork, and supporting decisions across workflows in Claude Chat, security teams need visibility into what those agents are doing, what systems they're accessing, and what tools they're invoking. With Zenity for Claude Enterprise, security teams can: 🔎 Discover and inventory agent activity across Claude Code, Cowork and Chat 🛡️ Govern MCP servers, plugins and skills with consistent policy controls ⚡ Detect and respond to risky agent behavior in real time 📊 Maintain detailed audit trails of agent actions across Claude environments All from build time to runtime, across your Claude environment. As our CEO and co-founder Ben Kliger, put it: the challenge is no longer what an AI model says it's what an AI agent can do. Enterprises need security controls that match the operational reality of agents today. businesswire.com/news/home/2…

Beep has brought the first #autonomous public transit to the City of Atlanta. ATL Spoke, the company's new pilot with @AtlantaBeltline, is now in service, with four SAE Level 4 shuttles operating as a coordinated fleet through @beepAVsolutions' AutonomOS platform and operations control center. The deployment puts Beep's core premise to work: #autonomousvehicles can drive themselves, but running them as a transit network takes coordinated supervision, which is what AutonomOS was built to do. Check out more on the news below.
The full story on Atlanta's first autonomous public transit service is here! ATL Spoke is live, connecting Southwest Atlanta with free, safe autonomous transit powered by @AdastecCorp , Karsan, & Beep's AutonomOS™. ridebeep.com/press-releases/… @AtlantaBeltline

At @FortuneMagazine #BrainstormTech, @SambaNovaAI's Co-founder & CEO @RodrigoLiang sat down with @jeremyakahn for a conversation on the economics of scaling massive #AI models. Liang said the industry's next challenge is running today's largest models efficiently enough to make real-world deployment economically viable. Trillion-parameter models remain expensive and power-hungry to operate, and he pointed to hardware built specifically for large-model workloads as the way to deliver faster #inference at lower power consumption. Read more from @sharongoldman below.
"We’re getting two to 3x better than the [Nvidia] Blackwells [GPUs] on the exact same models, and so we think that at scale that’s the way to at least bring the cost down." - @RodrigoLiang One of the most interesting parts of Rodrigo Liang's conversation with @sarahookr & @jeremyakahn at @FortuneMagazine Brainstorm Tech was the mix of perspectives on stage. Jeremy's questions cut through the hype and got right to the bigger shifts happening across AI, while Sara shared an important perspective on why the future of AI can’t just be about building bigger models, but also about efficiency, adaptability, and systems that can continuously evolve. Together with Rodrigo Liang, the conversation explored a question the industry is starting to wrestle with more seriously: how do we build AI systems that deliver more intelligence with dramatically better efficiency at scale? A few themes stood out: • AI is moving from a training-first mindset into an inference-first reality • Efficiency is quickly becoming one of the biggest competitive advantages in AI • The future stack won’t be one-size-fits-all, it will be purpose-built for different workloads Read this great recap of their discussion from @sharongoldman: fortune.com/2026/06/09/ais-n…

Featured in @Cybernews , @Security_score’s #threatintelligence highlights the new malware family called “Showboat,” targeting telecom providers in a stealth cyber campaign. SecurityScorecard researcher Gilad Friedenreich Maizles shared how the company’s in-house infrastructure-tracking system, Driftnet, can reveal adversary #infrastructure beyond what is initially reported. Read more below.
📡 New headline alert 📡 Our new threat intelligence data on the China-linked “Showboat” malware campaign targeting telecommunications firms was just featured in a news article. State-sponsored cyber espionage continues to aggressively target critical infrastructure, slipping past traditional defenses. In this campaign, threat actors are leveraging specialized malware to establish long-term access within telecommunications networks — making real-time visibility across the broader digital supply chain more vital than ever. Building on the findings about the campaign, STRIKE used SecurityScorecard's Driftnet engine to observe 14 additional IP addresses presenting the same exact certificate. Get the full breakdown of the attack and STRIKE team's latest findings in the article below. 🌐👇 cybernews.com/security/china…
