Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Security operations teams are drowning in telemetry. Rule-based detections still do the heavy lifting, but they often force you to choose between high noise and blind spots, especially when adversaries live off the land and blend into legitimate activity. Over the past year at BlueVoyant, we’ve been testing and deploying Microsoft’s User and Entity Behavioral Analytics (UEBA) capabilities across our customer base, and the results have been eye-opening.

Agentic AI is evolving from assistants that answer questions into systems that can remember, use tools, call APIs, interact with SaaS applications, and improve over time. Hermes Agent, developed by Nous Research, reflects this shift as a self-improving agent that can create skills, persist knowledge, and build context across sessions., reflects this shift as a self-improving agent that can create skills, persist knowledge, and build context across sessions.

I signed the Free Fable letter at freefable.org. I want to explain why — and why the reasoning behind it matters for AI code security beyond any single AI model. Cybersecurity defenders are not just critics of technology. We are the builders and operators of the systems that keep real organizations running under pressure.

Most security vendors hide their documentation behind a login. Some don’t write it at all. You get a sales page, a demo, and a request to install an agent on your servers, and you’re expected to trust that the thing does what the marketing says. That’s backwards. So we wrote the docs, and we put all of them at certkit.io/docs. No login, no account gate, no “contact us for details.” You can read every page before you create an account.
