  "summary": "Oslo-based AI-powered human risk platform Pistachio has announced the acquisition of Hugin.io, a Norwegian cyber-risk management platform. This acquisition aims to expand Pistachio's offerings beyond human risk to include compliance management, strengthening its proposition for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and mid-market organisations. The CEO of Pistachio, Joe Jones, emphasized the importance of effective cybersecurity that does not require constant effort from stretched teams. Hugin.io's technology will be integrated into Pistachio's platform, allowing for the extension of human risk management approaches into compliance management and helping more organisations build resilience without adding another layer of complexity. The new product is expected to launch in 2027, providing a suite of capabilities designed to help organisations define, measure, and improve their security posture, along with tools for managing devices and applications. Pistachio notes that compliance is becoming as much a business imperative as a legal one, especially with the increasing complexity of security requirements.",
