Kubernetes is built to make communication between workloads simple. Pods receive routable IP addresses, Services provide stable endpoints, and internal DNS allows applications to locate one another without tracking where each container is running. Those features make distributed systems easier to operate, but they can also produce a broad internal attack surface when network controls…

Continuous integration and continuous delivery are often described as engineering automation: code enters a repository, tests run, an artifact is built, and a release moves into an environment. That description is operationally correct, but it leaves out the security fact that matters most. A CI/CD workflow is also a programmable access path into production. Modern…

Software bills of materials have become one of the most visible controls in software supply chain security. They provide a machine-readable inventory of the libraries, packages, modules, frameworks, and other components associated with a software product. When a new vulnerability is disclosed, an SBOM can help an organization determine which applications may contain the affected…

Prompt injection was first treated mainly as a text-security problem. An attacker typed a tempted to override its system rules, and tried to make the model produce restricted information or perform an unintended task. Multimodal models and computer-use agents have changed that threat model. Instructions no longer need to arrive through a chat box. They…

As AI agents move from chat interfaces into production systems, the security question is no longer limited to what a model can say. It is now also about what the agent can reach, what tools it can invoke, and which user-linked accounts sit behind those tool calls. That shift is what makes the Model Context…

AI agents are becoming useful for the same reason they are becoming risky: they can act. They can browse websites, read files, call APIs, search repositories, invoke MCP servers, use skill files, modify documents, and trigger workflows across external systems. That makes them very different from older chatbot deployments, where most risk stayed inside the…
