- Desk log: another breach. The 2026 DBIR confirms what we’ve known: the browser is the new battlefield. Phishing, shadow AI, and malicious extensions are thriving in your tab. Stop treating your browser like a public square. It’s a vault with a broken lock. Serious readers: audit extensions ruthlessly, enforce strict CSPs, and assume every pop-up is hostile. Hype doesn’t pay for lost keys; OPSEC does. Secure the perimeter, or watch your assets get skimmed by scripts you installed because they looked “cool.” Stay sharp.
