For teams using Atlassian’s Jira and Confluence, Claude could become a serious helper. Think drafting product specs, summarising long Confluence documents so you don’t have to wade through them, or even creating batches of linked Jira tickets at once. It might even spot potential roadblocks by analysing project data. And if you use Intercom for customer chats, this integration could be a game-changer. Intercom’s own AI assistant, Fin, can now work with Cla

Google opens its cloud to rival OpenAI, promises business data won’t train models Google Cloud is adding OpenAI models to its platform, initially through a private preview for selected business customers. The launch includes GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Luna. Google positions them as options for demanding work, lower-cost professional tasks and everyday use that requires fast responses. More choice, one bill Businesses will purchase access through Go

Hackers hijack exposed AI models to launch cyberattacks at victims’ expense An attack tool built around AI goes looking for AI models that anyone on the internet can reach, then uses them to plan break-ins while the model’s owner pays for the computing power. Symantec captured the agent’s instruction set this summer through a honeypot posing as an unprotected AI service, researchers Priti More and Susmit Yenkar wrote. Its operators sent their entire workin

Google open-sources the Elephant-Goldfish Model plugin its engineers use to catch AI coding mistakes Google has open-sourced the Elephant-Goldfish Model plugin, an internal tool that makes an AI coding agent write and defend a design document before it touches any code. The plugin hands that document to fresh AI sessions that have never seen the design conversation and tells them to find what is wrong with it. The EGM plugin in a nutshell (Source: Google)

r/opensource bans AI projects, and solo devs go down with them Moderators of r/opensource, Reddit’s catch-all forum for open source software, have barred any project that “uses AI, is made by AI, or is intended for AI.” Moderator Wolvereness announced the rules in a post over the weekend. A project now has to be at least a year old and actively maintained, carry an OSI license, have an existing community and “subjectively 3+” contributors. The poster needs

Synthetic identities leave US lenders with $2.4 billion in fraud exposure Criminals are exploiting established customer accounts and familiar brands to steal money and personal information, according to TransUnion’s Fraud in the Age of Continuous Trust report.

Forgotten AI agents may still access sensitive company data AI agents that have not run recently retain credentials and connections to company systems, according to Arrakis Security’s 2026 Autonomous Agents Threat Report. About 76% of enabled agents examined had not run in 60 days, leaving access available through inactive software. Agents by exposure family (Source: Arrakis Security) The analysis covered thousands of agents in customer production environm

Product showcase: Stellar Cyber’s ISOC platform provides full-cycle architecture An AI SOC that starts with somebody else’s alert is already too late. Stellar Cyber collects and normalizes telemetry, detects suspicious activity, correlates evidence, builds cases, investigates incidents, triages findings, and drives response from the same security architecture. That gives people and AI access to the evidence behind the alert – not just the alert itself. Ful

AI slop is piling up highest on the biggest open-source projects The maintainers of large open source projects are taking the worst of the AI slop. In a Linux Foundation survey of 234 open source contributors and maintainers, people running projects with more than 50 contributors estimated that close to a third of the code changes landing in their queue are low quality or AI-generated. Those maintainers now worry more about burning out than about the code

Anthropic details what stops Claude Duet from going rogue Anthropic has outlined the security and privacy protections behind Claude Duet, its proactive AI agent that can monitor connected accounts and complete tasks while users are away. The safeguards include approval requirements, checks for sensitive information and infrastructure that keeps credentials outside the model’s reach. Duet works through a cloud-based computer and browser to prepare briefings

Fortinet patches critical FortiOS flaws found with AI help Fortinet rolled out security hardening updates for FortiOS, FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, FortiMail, and FortiAuthenticator last week, but is keeping the details about the fixed vulnerabilities under wraps until November 10, 2026.
