The Web Is Full of Traps, and AI Agents Walk Right into Them
The enterprise is deploying AI agents at a pace that has outrun every security framework written to govern them. These agents don’t just answer questions, they browse websites, retrieve documents, call APIs, execute code, manage email, initiate financial transactions, and spawn sub-agents to tackle complex workflows. They operate autonomously, at machine speed, often with.. First…

LLM-generated passwords are indefensible. Your codebase may already prove it
Temperature is not a remedy: A reflexive objection from practitioners familiar with LLM configuration holds that increasing sampling temperature would attenuate these distributional biases by flattening the probability landscape from which characters are drawn. Irregular’s empirical results are unambiguous in refuting this intuition. Testing conducted at temperature 1.0, the maximum setting on Claude, produces no…

What Anthropic Glasswing reveals about the future of vulnerability discovery
From backlog management to exposure-window risk: The issue, as Williams frames it, is not simply how many vulnerabilities exist, but how they are managed. “Mythos makes one thing painfully clear,” he says. “This is not a prioritization problem. It’s an exposure-window problem.”Traditional vulnerability management has been built around prioritization, ranking issues by severity, exploitability, and…
