Sophos has expanded its SecOps portfolio with the first solution based on Secureworks technology to be fully integrated into the Sophos Central platform since Sophos acquired the company in February. The Sophos Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) platform, based on Secureworks’ Taegis IDR solution, protects against identity-based attacks by continuously monitoring customer environments for identity risks and misconfigurations and scanning the dark web for compromised credentials that have become one of the fastest growing threat vectors. In addition to automated remediation measures, integration with Sophos XDR and Sophos MDR ensures rapid analyst-led responses to identity‑based risks and attacks such as kerberoasting, privilege escalation, account takeover, brute force and lateral movement. … JumpCloud has enhanced its ability to secure cloud-forward IT environments with the acquisition of Breez, an Identity Threat Detection, Investigation and Response (ITDR) platform. JumpCloud’s latest acquisition, following those of VaultOne and Stack Identity earlier this year, brings sophisticated ITDR tools and faster innovation to JumpCloud’s core security data products, accelerating its mission to bring together industry innovators on a single, unified platform. In a separate development, JumpCloud is collaborating with Google Workspace on the Work Transformation Set, which combines secure, AIpowered productivity and collaboration tools from Google Workspace with JumpCloud’s Zero Trust platform for identity and access management (IAM) and unified endpoint management (UEM). The Work Transformation Set is available exclusively through Google Workspace, with the convenience of a single, cost-effective Google Workspace contract. Greg Keller, Co-founder and CTO of JumpCloud, said: “Enterprise IT and security teams are at a crossroads. The choices they face are clear: stick with legacy systems that have held back innovation for decades or embrace a modern, AI-enabled future. The combination of JumpCloud and Google Workspace provides that clear path forward, leveraging Google’s powerful AI capabilities to accelerate deeper security, productivity and value.” www.jumpcloud.com … Kaseya, the global provider of AI-powered IT management and cybersecurity software for small businesses and MSPs, has announced more than 90 enhancements to its offering, in addition to those previously announced at DattoCon such as the Siris 6 appliance, the acquisition of email security solution INKY and the launch of Datto Backup for Entra ID.

Key features include summaries of documents and insights; naturallanguage search across all work tools and files; workspaces, known as Stacks, that bring files, links and updates together for everyone on the team; and built-in privacy and security controls, with Dropbox’s commitment that user data is never sold or used to train AI models. Some of these features are also available to existing Dropbox users through AI in Dropbox, powered by Dash. Dash not only connects to the tools you already use but also works inside them. With Dash’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) server you can securely search all your content directly within MCP-compatible apps such as Claude, Cursor and Goose, without switching tabs or copying and pasting information. dropbox.com/dash … BT is partnering with CrowdStrike to deliver enterprise-grade, AI-powered cybersecurity to small and medium-sized businesses in the UK.
