The Baltic nation's AI Council is proposing state-backed digital identities for AI agents, defining exactly what they're allowed to do before they touch your data or your bank account.
Ent Raises $100 Million Seed Round to Build Intent-Aware Endpoint Security
The stealth-mode startup says its platform reads behavioral intent before risky actions execute — a bet that pre-action inference can replace post-breach detection.
Poisoned Documents Can Freeze AI Agent Guardrails Dead in Their Tracks
Researchers found that a single malicious input can trap reasoning-based safety systems in extended thinking loops, slowing LangGraph deployments by 148x and starving co-located agents of resources.
Sovereign Cloud Gives You a Data Center. Identity Governance Gives You Control.
European enterprises spent two years and real money on sovereign cloud deployments. What they found is that data residency is the easy part — and that AI agent identities are the part nobody governed.
Agentjacking: Poisoned Sentry Error Reports Hijack AI Coding Assistants
Researchers describe a prompt-injection class that turns developer error-tracking pipelines into a remote code execution path against AI coding agents.
A Free LLM, a Custom Harness, and 27 Compromised VMs: The AI Worm You Don't Need a Lab to Build
University of Toronto researchers built a self-replicating AI worm using only locally-hosted open models. It spread to 82% of its targets. The threat model here isn't frontier AI — it's the misconfigured server you forgot about.
OpenAI's Lockdown Mode Admits the Problem It Can't Quite Fix
The new containment feature reduces AI-enabled data exfiltration — it doesn't stop it. Experts are divided on whether enterprises should even trust a vendor to police itself.
Microsoft Expands Its Agentic AI Failure Taxonomy With Seven New Attack Classes
From inter-agent trust escalation to MCP plugin abuse, the updated taxonomy surfaces threat categories that didn't exist — or weren't well-understood — when Microsoft published its first version.
The AI SOC Hit Production. Only 10% of Buyers Call It Excellent.
Budgets shifted fast. Outcomes lagged. What the next wave of agentic SOC tooling has to prove before renewal season.
Claude Mythos Preview Reportedly Breached Within Hours, Renewing Agentic AI Risk Questions
An unverified claim of unauthorized access to Anthropic's limited technical preview has defense-sector buyers asking whether agentic models belong on production networks at all.
Microsoft Cages the Agent: MXC, MDASH, and the Push to Govern Autonomous AI at Runtime
Microsoft is shipping a dedicated containment environment for agentic AI workloads, alongside open-source governance frameworks and expanded vulnerability-scanning capabilities — all aimed at reining in what autonomous coding agents can actually do.
Identity Dark Matter: Why IAM Is Losing Sight of Its Own Users
Enterprise identity has fragmented across SaaS sprawl, machine accounts, and agentic systems — leaving a growing slice of activity that centralized IAM cannot see or govern.
Agentic AI Is Doing What a Thousand Breach Reports Couldn't: Getting Boards to Open the Checkbook
Autonomous agents, AI-generated code, and frontier models capable of offensive cyber ops are finally making cybersecurity a board-level business conversation — not just an IT line item.
You Can't Audit What You Can't See: The Agent Governance Hole Nobody Wants to Talk About
Enterprises are shipping AI agents into production without inventories, without trace pipelines, and without a coherent answer to a basic question: what is this thing actually doing?
Microsoft Open-Sources Rampart and Clarity to Embed AI Agent Safety Into Dev Pipelines
Two new tools shift AI red-teaming left, targeting prompt injection and privilege escalation before code ships.
