AI has crossed a new line. JadePuffer demonstrates how autonomous AI can execute sophisticated cyberattacks with minimal human involvement – adapting, escalating, and making decisions in real time. Discover why this changes the cybersecurity landscape forever, and why modernizing identity, cryptography, and AI governance is rapidly becoming a business imperative.

Most companies assume CRA compliance starts with vulnerability management, SBOMs, secure development, and incident response. In reality, the hardest first step is often figuring out which products are actually in scope, how they should be classified, and what security obligations apply to each one. Companies are discovering hidden products, legacy versions, cloud services, OEM components, and acquisitions that can multiply their CRA scope by 5x or more. The article argues that successful CRA programs begin with product inventory, classification, governance, and lifecycle ownership – not security controls – and that getting classification wrong can create compliance risk for years.

The old approach to trust infrastructure isn’t scaling. As AI, machine identities, and post-quantum cryptography reshape cybersecurity, the open-source ILM Community is bringing builders together to create the future of trust automation. Discover why the community matters—and how you can help build what’s next.

Companies selling connected products into Europe are racing to prepare for the Cyber Resilience Act – but many are discovering that their biggest compliance challenges have little to do with cybersecurity controls. Why are mature security programs still struggling? Why are product inventories, SBOMs, and support commitments becoming board-level concerns? And why do some organizations move quickly while others stall? Learn the real lessons emerging from the front lines of CRA implementation in this new blog series from OmniTrust.

- Lifecycle Lessons
Certificates, keys, and secrets need lifecycle governance — but the platform providing it has always carried its own operational cost. The updated open-source ILM operator collapses that cost into two declared Kubernetes resources: one for the whole platform, one per connector. Tested upgrade bundles, continuous reconciliation, and declarative coverage of every place your cryptographic assets live.

AI is taking over the world… so why are expired certificates still taking down companies in 2026? In a world of AI agents and quantum computing, organizations are still being brought down by expired certificates. How is that possible? OmniTrust’s Sam Delsing unpacks one of cybersecurity’s most embarrassing secrets: why certificate expiration is still causing outages in 2026.

AI is spreading across enterprises faster than governance, finance, and cybersecurity teams can control it. Shadow AI, runaway token spend, and autonomous agents are forcing CIOs and CISOs into a new role: not AI blockers, but the adults in the room helping businesses discover, control, optimize, and safely scale AI before operational chaos arrives.

- PKI & Cryptographic Governance
You cannot migrate to post-quantum cryptography without knowing what cryptographic assets you have. This post walks through the three-step process for building a comprehensive inventory — discovery, metadata collection, and structured cataloging — and explains how the Cryptography Bill of Materials (CBOM) standard from OWASP CycloneDX provides a standardized format for the result. Includes a comparison of open-source CBOM tooling.

- PKI & Cryptographic Governance
Most PKI environments grow organically without structured governance. The PKI Maturity Model (PKIMM), developed by the PKI Consortium, provides a CMMI-based assessment across 15 categories in four modules — Governance, Management, Operations, and Resources. It gives PKI architects a measurable way to identify gaps and build a concrete improvement roadmap.

- Trust Lifecycle Management
Certificates get lifecycle governance — renewal dates, revocation policies, audit trails. API tokens, service credentials, and signing keys rarely get the same treatment, even though they carry equivalent trust. This post explains why trust lifecycle management must cover every artifact that confers trust, not just X.509. The answer is not replacing Vault or AWS Secrets Manager, but adding a unified governance plane above them: one inventory, one policy, one audit stream.
