Approved ≠ controlled. Shady AI is the real stealth risk most companies are still ignoring.

Looking to increase your cybersecurity knowledge
Day 31: Perform Regular Cybersecurity Check-Up “Keep your cyber health in shape; make security check-up a habit 👀” This month, we explored 30 cybersecurity diet practices that can help us protect our devices, accounts, and personal information from cyber threats. As we bring this cybersecurity diet to a close, it is important to remember that staying safe online requires consistent effort. Just as a little consistency with a healthy diet helps improve our physical health, regular cybersecurity check-ups help us maintain our cyber health. Quick Tip: Take time to review your account activity, check for software updates, assess privacy settings, and ensure that passwords and other security measures are still effective. Small, consistent checks can help us protect our cyber health by identifying potential risks early and addressing them before they become bigger problems. Which day resonated with you the most, and what insights or lessons did you take away from it?

"Your account will be locked in 10 minutes!" Sound familiar? 👀 Phishing doesn't always rely on suspicious links. Sometimes, it relies on making you panic. Urgency creates pressure. Pressure leads to rushed decisions. Before you click, pause and verify through the official app or website. Don't let urgency make the decision for you.

We’re adding support for MCP Tasks and Elicitations in Claude. Tasks let Claude give plugins long-running jobs such as deep research and report back when they’re done.

Starting next week, sessions across Claude web, desktop, and mobile apps will run in auto mode by default on Pro, Max, and Team plans. Rather than asking you to approve each step, an automated check blocks risky actions. Switch back to manual anytime.
Starting August 14, auto mode will be the default permission mode in Claude Code for Pro, Max, and Team users. Auto mode reviews shell commands and actions with a separate classifier. In testing, it caught 89% of dangerous commands. Manual approval caught 14%.
