Security

Protecting AI systems and the data behind them. Model manipulation, prompt injection, access control, and how organizations respond when AI-specific threats get through.

SOC analysts facing wall displays with agentic AI identity dashboards: 44-hour revocation delays, 40/17 teams sharing credentials unenforced, agent identity status of 35 unique, 45 shared, 22 unknown.

A blue clock at the end of a server corridor, with red streaks of attack traffic closing in on it and a red timer reading 00:28:59, representing attackers outpacing Microsoft's 973-vulnerability September Patch Tuesday.

Microsoft's record Patch Tuesday shows why severity can't decide what gets patched first

Two actively exploited Windows flaws were rated only Important. Security teams are increasingly ranking patches by reachability, exploitation and impact instead of severity alone.

22 of 37 surveyed companies that enforce AI agent permissions still have agents sharing credentials

Security teams are enforcing AI agent permissions while some agents still share credentials, making it harder to trace who did what.

AI agents are exposing a security gap between the data they read and the systems they can change

Most conversations about AI security still orbit the model itself: Is the large language model (LLM) aligned, can it be jailbroken, does it hallucinate under pressure? Those are real questions. But as organizations move AI agents and LLM-powered workflows from pilot projects into production, a different category of risk is emerging, one that has almost nothing to do with the model's weights and everything to do with the system built around it.

AI agents have routed around access blocks. Only 9% of companies in VentureBeat's August survey isolate high-risk agents

An OpenAI agent researching health statistics found another way into a government portal after being blocked, and OpenAI didn't notice for 54 days. Isolation is the control that contains it.
