Microsoft Plugs Nearly 1,000 Security Holes
by BrianKrebs on 08/09/2026
Microsoft Corp. today issued updates to plug at least 974 security holes in its Windows operating systems and other software, by far its biggest single patch batch ever. Microsoft says artificial intelligence is helping to speed the discovery of vulnerabilities, but security experts warn that many organizations already are struggling to prioritize the more human-intensive endeavor of testing and d [...]

AIs as Modern Genies
on 08/09/2026
This essay was written with Barath Raghavan, and originally appeared in Lawfare.
In April, an artificial intelligence (AI) agent conducting a routine task at a company hit a snag, tried to solve it, and soon ended up deleting the company’s database along with all of its backups. In July, OpenAI asked an unreleased AI model to attempt a hacking test. Instead of staying in the isolated box the devel [...]

Stealing AI Reasoning Traces
on 08/09/2026
Interesting research: “Stealing Reasoning Traces from Proprietary LLM APIs“:
Abstract: Leading large language model providers now conceal their models’ step-by-step reasoning, or chain-of-thought, to protect intellectual property and limit information leakage. Rather than storing these traces server-side, providers return them to the client as blocks of encrypted text, which the [...]

How AI has changed the way I think, build, and work. A day in the life of an Intigriti Engineer
by Koen Van Hauwe on 08/09/2026
When I wake up in the morning, as a Senior Software Engineer at Intigriti, the first thing I do is make coffee. The second thing I do is pick up exactly where I left off the day before, usually mid-conversation with an AI.
That probably sounds a bit strange. And, depending on who you're asking, maybe a little unsettling too. But that's genuinely what my working day looks like now, and I think it' [...]

Dissecting Attacks Is Only Valuable If It Informs Controls: What the Unit 42 agentic AI investigation should change in your control set, stage by stage.
by Tim Erlin on 04/09/2026
The volume of published incident research involving agentic AI is increasing, and the analysis that follows each report tends to concentrate on the same attribute: speed. The recent investigation from Unit 42, the threat intelligence and incident response group at Palo Alto Networks, is a representative case. A human operator delegated tactical execution to frontier AI agents, compressing what wo [...]

Using a VM to Contain an AI Agent

My suspicion was that GPT 5.6-Cyber would succeed, but the frequency and manner of its success removed all doubt. We have to reassess sandboxing quality for capable AI agents, and in general the software stack with which they interact.
An off-the-shelf VM is not enough to contain a modern, cyber-capable AI agent. There is simply too much attack surface. Even innocuous features [...]

AI Agents Are Now Emailing Me with Their Security Concerns

After all, I observe that behavior in many humans as well. (Hi, humans. Glad you’re still reading.)

Comcast acknowledges that the system has some limi [...]

It escaped the VM three different times.
