If "stdio" is a Vulnerability, So Is "git clone" - Notes on Riding the AI Vulnerability Trend

A developer clones a repository and opens it in VS Code at 10:47 a.m. Before their cursor blinks, six different configuration file formats on disk have a chance to execute shell commands on the host. A.vscode/tasks.json with runOn: folderOpen. A.devcontainer/devcontainer.json with initializeCommand. A post-checkout hook already sitting in.git/hooks/. A postinstall line waiting in package.json for the next dependency install. A.envrc in the project root.

Unlock the Power of Agents with JFrog's Skills and MCP Tools

Agents are writing code, suggesting dependencies, and reviewing PRs, without any knowledge about your trusted package sources, security posture, or governance policies. When agents operate without supply chain context, they introduce risk, create rework, and weaken the guardrails DevSecOps teams rely on to ship with confidence. JFrog is changing that.

The Three-Layer Strategy for Autonomous Agent Governance with Joe Hladik and Amit Malik

The race for AI dominance has created a dangerous imbalance between business velocity and cyber resilience. In this episode, host Caleb Tolin is joined by ⁠Joe Hladik⁠, Head of ⁠Rubrik⁠ Zero Labs, and Staff Security Researcher ⁠Amit Malik⁠ to break down the findings of their latest report on agentic adoption. The discussion centers on the Agentic Paradox. This is the technical reality that tools designed to automate high-level tasks are inherently built to find the most efficient path around obstacles, including existing security policies.

Shift-Left Testing Only Works If Your Tests Are Trustworthy

Shift-left has become the standard answer to the quality and security problems that accumulate when testing happens late. Move testing earlier. Catch defects in development, not in production. Run security checks in the pipeline, not in a post-release audit. The principle is sound. The execution is where most teams run into trouble.

Frontier AI Is Collapsing the Exploit Window. Here's How Defenders Must Respond.

The defensive timeline in cybersecurity is changing faster than most organizations are prepared for. For years, defenders operated with an assumption that there would be some delay between vulnerability disclosure and exploitation. That delay created a window for patching, mitigation, and detection. It wasn’t perfect, but it gave security teams time to act. Frontier AI is removing that buffer and changing how organizations must consider cyber risk.

Why Identity Security is Key To Managing Shadow AI

Employees are adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to enhance their productivity, but they rarely consider the security implications of doing so. When an employee pastes sensitive customer data into an unapproved AI tool, that data is processed by a third-party model outside the organization’s control, often leaving no audit trail for security teams to review.

Your auditor is about to ask about AI agents. 9 things they'll want to see

NIST CSF 2.0 and Agentic AI: Building Profiles for Autonomous Systems

AI agents are likely already running inside your infrastructure. They triage alerts, remediate incidents, provision resources, and make decisions without waiting for a human to approve each step. For teams aligned to NIST’s Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0, this creates a problem: the framework assumes human actors, human-speed decisions, and human-readable audit trails. Autonomous systems break all three assumptions. The good news is that CSF 2.0 was designed to be adapted.
