Cape joins OpenAI and other tech infrastructure providers in calling for greater defense against AI attacks: nytimes.com/2026/08/27/techn… Telecom is perhaps the critical infrastructure that is most mired in legacy systems.

Without collective action toward innovative cyber defense, the consequences will only get worse.
