Could AI Kill All Humans in the Next Decade? The Evidence For and Against

An AI agent can now read emails, open tickets, query databases, create files, update records, and trigger workflows. That makes it useful. It also makes it risky. The awkward part is this: many organisations are starting to treat AI agents like digital employees, but their security controls still treat them like software tools. That gap is where mistakes happen. An agent might share a sensitive document with the wrong person. It might approve a request based on a convincing f

Fraud is no longer a side issue in UK crime. It is one of the main ways people, firms and public bodies lose money, trust and time.

The plant was taken offline as a precaution while engineers and cyber security specialists worked to isolate affected systems, assess the damage, and prevent the attack from spreading. Officials have not publicly confirmed the full technical details of the incident, including the identity of the attackers,

Most organisations invest heavily in defending their own perimeter, their firewalls, their endpoints, their staff awareness. Yet some of the most damaging incidents of recent years have entered not through the front door, but through a trusted supplier. When a vendor is breached, every organisation that depends on that vendor can inherit the consequences, often with little warning and no direct control over the response. This is supply-chain risk, and it has become one of the

Security teams do not fail because they lack tools. They fail when they use the wrong tool for the job, trust automated output too quickly, or miss what attackers can see from the outside. The best ethical hacking stack in 2026 is not one giant platform. It is a practical mix of scanners, packet analysers, web testing suites, password audit tools, threat detection engines, and specialist frameworks. Some are open-source classics. Others are commercial products built for scale
