Beyond Security: How Agentic AI is Redefining Infrastructure Operations
By Rajesh Kari
Director, Product Marketing
April 23, 2026
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping infrastructure operations. Much of the early focus has been on transforming security operations including automating threat detection, accelerating response times, and reducing security analyst fatigue. While these advancements are essential, they address only part of the problem. Modern enterprises operate highly distributed environments where network performance, application delivery, and user experience are just as critical as security. Limiting AI transformation to security operations alone is no longer sufficient. Enterprises today require a unified operational model that spans network operations, security enforcement, user experience, and infrastructure management. The real opportunity is not just to make security…

Dell’Oro Group is putting a sharper name on something enterprise teams have been feeling for a while: in the AI era, the “WAN” cannot be a collection of loosely coupled products anymore. It has to operate like one end-to-end system with one policy model, one telemetry story, and one operational workflow.

Geopolitics Is Fracturing The Cloud, And Sovereign SASE Is Emerging As An Answer
By Kumar Mehta
Founder and CDO, Versa Networks
April 3, 2026
The cloud was supposed to simplify everything: global scale, shared infrastructure, one architecture for the world. However, that model is shifting, and I don’t see it shifting back again. The pressure driving that shift is sovereignty.
The question is no longer whether organizations trust the cloud but whether they can afford to cede control of their data and security enforcement mechanisms as digital systems increasingly intersect with national policy and regulation.

Identity Is the New Perimeter. Stryker Just Taught Us That the Hard Way.

Security Engineer - Research, and Field CISO
April 2, 2026
A story on how an Iran-linked group wiped tens of thousands of Stryker’s devices A nation-state attack that changes every assumption we had For years, we have treated nation-state threats as a “Tier 1” problem — something reserved for defense contractors and the energy grid. The March 2026 attack on Stryker Corporation by Iran-linked group Handala officially kills that assumption. On March 11, 2026, Stryker’s corporate Microsoft environment was hit. Employees arrived to find their managed devices wiped out overnight through entirely legitimate Intune commands. Handala claimed 200,000+ systems affected; independent reporting confirms that tens of thousands were impacted. Stryker’s…
