Episode Details

Today on Prime Cyber Insights, we examine critical flaws in remote access infrastructure and the widening security gap in enterprise AI. We lead with BeyondTrust's disclosure of critical authentication bypass vulnerabilities in its Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access platforms, carrying CVSS scores of 9.2. These flaws, discovered with the help of AI models like Claude Opus 4.8, allow unauthenticated attackers to bypass access controls under specific configurations. We then break down a significant new report from DigiCert that highlights a disconnect in AI governance: while 90% of boards are discussing AI, the majority of companies are seeing security incidents caused by misconfigured agents. Finally, we look at the persistent threat of Pegasus spyware following the infection of a former Greek MEP’s device, prompting calls for urgent EU-wide accountability.
