Introducing Alfred for fully autonomous AI-built vulnerability assessments

We are excited to announce Detectify Alfred, a revolutionary system that uses AI to completely autonomously collect and prioritize threat intelligence and generate high-fidelity security tests for the CVEs that are most likely to be exploited in the wild.

Autonomous Agentic AI-Enabled Deepfake Social Engineering Malware is Coming Your Way!

I’ve been in the cybersecurity industry for over 36 years. Surprisingly, hackers and malware haven't changed all that much. The malware today is not all that different from the stuff I was disassembling for John McAfee back in the late 1980s and early 1990s. A lot of the involved programming languages, technology and communication channels have changed, but not how malware operated and what it did. We had ransomware back in 1989. We had polymorphic, crypto-morphing malware back then.

"AI is a massive power for good, but are we ready for it?"

AI is a powerful tool, but are we truly prepared for its impact? The balance between AI's benefits and the ethical concerns surrounding privacy, data security, and automation is more critical than ever. As technology advances, ensuring AI serves people—not the other way around—has become a global priority.

Software Will Become Agentic and the Security Lessons We Need To Learn

Ever since OpenAI publicly released ChatGPT in late 2022, people have been predicting the end of programmers. Supposedly, AI can do anything programmers can do. While I’m not convinced all programmers are going away, I wouldn’t want to be a brand new programmer, and I do think the field is definitely going to change, if not significantly shrink over time. I’m not going out on much of a limb in saying this as almost everyone thinks this. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella thinks this.
