AI Agent Security: A Practical Field Guide for Engineers
How Black Hat USA 2026 reframed agents as systems that browse, run code, and move credentials—and what to do about it. Bottom line: agents are not safer chatbots; they are automation with a probabilistic parser on the front. Design them like production automation that accepts hostile input—because they do.
India's banking regulator (RBI) does not want the CISO Reporting to IT
The 2026 Directions put the CISO's reporting line in writing — outside IT, into risk, with no business targets. The RBI regulates over 9000 financial entities, ranking one of largest in the world.
AI enabled Reverse Engineering vs. Obfuscated SDK: How AI Agents Are Now Cracking Hunter’s Defenses
In the escalating cat-and-mouse game of Android security, one native library has stood out for its brutal effectiveness: libhunter.so from the popular root/hook/tampering detector com.zhenxi.hunter (Hunter). By mid-2026, its combination of heavy obfuscation, dynamic JNI trickery, and multi-layered runtime self-checks had made traditional static analysis painfully slow and error-prone. Manual reverse engineering felt like navigating a minefield blindfolded.

Make Claude Opus Punch Above Its Weight: Security Testing With Skills, Subagents and Smart Workflows
You do not need Claude's newest or largest model to do serious security work. With skills, parallel subagents, adversarial verification and the right tooling, a widely available model like Opus produces security analysis that rivals a top-tier frontier model. A practitioner's guide to the building blocks, the workflow, the open Trail of Bits skills, and the guardrails that keep the agent from becoming the vulnerability.
Coding With AI? Catch The Security Gaps Before You Ship
AI coding tools introduce security flaws in 45% of tasks, yet developers using them feel more confident. Why the gap exists, the real incidents, and how to close it before you ship.
