HUMAIN Expands AWS Collaboration with ‘HUMAIN ONE’ Enterprise AI Operating System

ServiceNow has unveiled updates to its workflow management platform advancing its redefinition of itself as the “AI control tower for business reinvention” at its Knowledge customer event this week. The AI Control Tower product itself, introduced at last year’s event, gets new integrations with Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and other LLM providers to extend governance and observability of enterprise infrastructure, adding to its existing links with OpenAI and Anthropic. The integrations also span applications such as SAP, Oracle, and Workday. In addition, Control Tower can now discover non-human identities and connected devices to bring OT and IoT under the same governance as AI agents and cloud services. All this ties in to the ServiceNow Action Fabric, which opens the platform to any AI agent, whether built on ServiceNow or from another source, via a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, the company said. And thanks to the recent acquisition o

AWS announces the general availability of the AWS MCP Server, a managed remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents and coding assistants secure, authenticated access to all AWS services. The AWS MCP Server is part of the Agent Toolkit for AWS, a suite of tooling that includes the MCP Server, skills, and plugins that help coding agents build more effectively and efficiently on AWS.

The U.S. Department of Defense has signed agreements with Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Reflection AI, granting access to their AI technologies on classified networks for lawful operational use. The deals follow earlier agreements with Google, OpenAI, and SpaceX, and reflect the Pentagon’s push to build a broad, vendor-diverse AI architecture for military operations. […]

Last week, I took some time off in York, England, often described as the most haunted city in the country. I wandered through the ruins of abbeys that have stood for nearly a thousand years, walked along medieval walls, and spent an evening on a ghost tour hearing stories passed down through centuries. There’s something […]

The deals come as the DoD has doubled down on diversifying its exposure to AI vendors in the wake of its controversial dispute with Anthropic over usage terms of its AI models.

A supply chain attack on SAP-related npm packages has put fresh scrutiny on the developer tools and build workflows that enterprises rely on to produce software. The campaign, referred to as “mini Shai-Hulud,” affected packages used in SAP’s JavaScript and cloud application development ecosystem. The malicious versions added installation-time code that could steal developer credentials, GitHub and npm tokens, GitHub Actions secrets, and cloud credentials from AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes environments. Researchers at SafeDep, Aikido Security, Wiz, and several other security firms said the affected packages included mbt@1.2.48, @cap-js/db-service@2.10.1, @cap-js/postgres@2.2.2, and @cap-js/sqlite@2.2.2. The suspicious versions were published on April 29 and were later replaced by safe releases. The malware encrypted stolen data and sent it to public GitHub repositories created from victims’ own accounts, according to the researchers. It also used stolen GitHub and npm tokens to add ma

Amazon Web Services recorded its fastest growth rate in 15 quarters, with net sales rising 28% year over year to $37.6 billion, driven by surging demand for AI compute infrastructure. CEO Andy Jassy credited the AI boom as the primary engine behind AWS’s acceleration, noting the scale of growth was historically unprecedented for a business […]
