Top 10 Open Source Micro Segmentation Tools in 2026
Traditional network segmentation doesn’t work for microservices. IP addresses and ports can’t protect API communications when services spin up and down dynamically across containers. Large enterprises running microservices architectures need different approach: identity-based segmentation that follows services wherever they run.
Agentic AI for Cybersecurity: Use Cases & Examples
Agentic AI refers to AI systems that combine models like large language models (LLMs) with automated workflows, tool integration, and decision support. These systems assist security teams in SecOps and AppSec by analyzing alerts, automating routine tasks, and supporting investigative work. Agentic AI tools generally operate under human oversight.
Local AI Agents: Goose, Observer AI, AnythingLLM
Local AI agents are often described as offline, on-device, or fully local. We spent three days mapping the ecosystem of local AI agents that run autonomously on personal hardware without depending on external APIs or cloud services.
Best 7 AI Test Agents for QA
We evaluated AI testing platforms embedded with AI agents; most were overhyped Selenium/Playwright with marketing. A few were capable of writing/maintaining test cases or visual testing, though even these tools still have notable limitations. From these, we selected 7 platforms and categorized them by their primary focus areas.
