One signal

An Anthropic executive has warned that major cyber disruptions could get worse before they improve, as governments and companies scramble to patch two critical software flaws.

Bloomberg reports the warning, but the excerpt does not identify the executive or name the flaws. It does make the concern clear: patching widely used software under pressure may be only the start of a rough stretch. For security teams, the immediate job remains the unglamorous one: find out whether their systems are affected and apply the relevant fixes. How much more disruption should organisations expect before patching catches up?

Discuss: Should organisations prioritise rapid patching even when it risks disrupting services, or wait for a clearer picture of the flaws?
