Experts Comment May 1, 2026 Kayne McGladrey raises another concern: the transfer of risk. AI vendors may provide the tools, but providers often carry the legal and financial consequences when things go wrong. In already stretched rural systems, that imbalance could have serious implications. There is also the issue of data. Many AI models are trained on urban populations, which may not reflect the realities of rural patients. That increases the risk of misdiagnosis or ineffective recommendations, particularly in communities with different health profiles. ](https://techround.co.uk/tech/ai-could-transform-rural-healthcare-but-who-will-benefit-the-most-experts-comment/) [ !(https://kaynemcgladrey.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Six_exploits_broke_Claude_Code__Copilot__Codex__and_Vertex_AI_Your_IAM_never_saw_them_coming.jpg) VentureBeat ### Claude Code, Copilot and Codex all got hacked. Every attacker went for the credential, not the model. May 1, 2026 Kayne McGladrey, an IEEE Senior Member who advises enterprises on identity risk, made the same diagnosis in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat. “It uses far more permissions than it should have, more than a human would, because of the speed of scale and intent.” ](https://venturebeat.com/security/six-exploits-broke-ai-coding-agents-iam-never-saw-them) [ !(https://kaynemcgladrey.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/dora-compliance-evidence-agentic-ai.webp) Teleport ### Guide: DORA Compliance Evidence for Agentic AI Apr 28, 2026 DORA compliance requires both proper documentation and comprehensive data generation. The gap between policy and practice can be bridged by rigorous, automated evidence collection alongside documented ICT risk management frameworks. But as agentic AI continues to redefine modern operations, the definition of sufficient evidence must similarly modernize. Organizations that adopt JIT access, unified logging, and agent-specific telemetry today will not only survive the next NCA audit, but will also achieve longstanding operational resilience. ](https://goteleport.com/blog/dora-evidence-agentic-ai/) [ !(https://kaynemcgladrey.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/nsplsh_305c99328f964bd38d5fcfac7b3f835emv2.avif) Michigan Information & Research Service ### State Fights Millions Of Daily Cyber Attacks — But Experts Say Weak Spots Remain Apr 28, 2026 “You can reduce risk,” said cybersecurity expert Kayne McGladrey. “But nobody out there can be perfect. It’s an unattainable goal.” McGladrey said he tends to think of cybersecurity in terms of risk; sometimes the risk is increased, and some things decrease risk. ](https://home.mirs.news/post/state-fights-millions-of-daily-cyber-attacks-but-experts-say-weak-spots-remain) [ !(https://kaynemcgladrey.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/eu-ai-act-requirements.webp) Teleport ### EU AI Act Compliance: Requirements, Risks, and What to Document Apr 17, 2026 This guide is for compliance officers, technical leads, CISOs, and their legal advisors preparing for increased regulatory scrutiny.
