Distributed trust at scale Enterprise AI agent systems are no longer confined to one environment. Your AI ecosystem might span: ChatGPT in Azure, authenticated via Entra LangChain in AWS, with SPIFFE-based identities CrewAI agents on-premises, running with PKCE Open-source agents embedded in CI/CD, deployed via GitHub Actions In this world, trust must be distributed but enforceable. The agent fabric supports federated identity models, connecting agents across: Multiple clouds (Azure, AWS, GCP) Multiple IDPs (Okta, Entra, Auth0, Keycloak) Different platforms (LLM tools, agent frameworks, container systems) Just like the identity fabric federates human authentication across providers, the agent fabric federates agent…

machine learning effectively means that simply training a model is no longer enough; robust, automated, and reproducible training pipelines are fast becoming standard requirements in MLOps. Many teams struggle to integrate machine learning experimentation with production-grade CI/CD practices, often becoming entangled in manual processes or complex container configurations. What if you could streamline the containerization of your training workflows and orchestrate them without ever needing to write a Dockerfile? In this tutorial, I’ll show how to automate training a GPT-2 model using open-source Tekton pipelines and Buildpacks. We’ll containerize a training workflow without writing a Dockerfile, and use Tekton to…

Cybersecurity experts at Akamai have uncovered a new threat: two separate botnets are actively exploiting a critical flaw in Wazuh security software, open source XDR and SIEM solution, to spread the Mirai malware. This vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-24016, affects Wazuh versions 4.4.0 through 4.9.0 and has since been fixed in version 4.9.1. It lets attackers run their own code on a target server by sending a specially crafted request through Wazuh’s API, hence, allowing attackers to take control of affected servers remotely. It is worth noting that this is the first time active attacks using this vulnerability have been reported,…

SAP June 2025 Security Patch Day fixed critical NetWeaver bug Pierluigi Paganini June 10, 2025 SAP fixed a critical NetWeaver flaw that let attackers bypass authorization and escalate privileges. Patch released in June 2025 Security Patch. SAP June 2025 Security Patch addressed a critical NetWeaver vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-42989 (CVSS score of 9.6), allowing threat actors to bypass authorization checks and escalate their privileges. “RFC inbound processing does not perform necessary authorization checks for an authenticated user, resulting in escalation of privileges.” reads the advisory. “On successful exploitation the attacker could critically impact both integrity and availability of the application.”…

ConnectWise is warning customers that it is rotating the digital code signing certificates used to sign ScreenConnect, ConnectWise Automate, and ConnectWise RMM executables over security concerns. Digital certificates are used to sign executables so those downloading the files know they come from a trusted source. This ensures that code has not been tampered with before it reaches the end user. According to ConnectWise, the decision was taken after a third-party security researcher raised concerns about how certain configuration data can be abused by threat actors. “We are updating the digital signing certificates used in ConnectWise ScreenConnect, Automate, and RMM due…

Joff Thyer // Editor’s Note:  This is part 1 of a 3 part series.  Part 1 will discuss configuring your virtual machine engine and virtual hardware emulation.  Part 2 covers installing Android for the emulator, and Part 3 covers installing the drozer attack framework. _______ If you’re planning to test mobile apps on Android, then you’ll need a suitable environment setup with the correct development tools, Android emulation, and the drozer security and attack framework. This blog post will walk through the steps to correctly configure an Ubuntu 16.04 system to engage in both penetration testing and development with Android apps.…

AI is supposed to make businesses faster, smarter, and more competitive, but most projects fall short. The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) says the real issue is companies cramming AI into old, rigid processes that just can’t keep up. “AI adoption in business and manufacturing is failing at least twice as often as it succeeds,” the CSA writes. “Companies are trying to integrate AI into outdated, rigid process structures that lack transparency, adaptability, and real-time data integration.” CSA introduces a model called the Dynamic Process Landscape (DPL). It’s a framework that shifts AI adoption away from fragmented automation and toward structured,…

ChatGPT remains the most widely used LLM among New Relic customers, making up over 86% of all tokens processed. Developers and enterprises are shifting to OpenAI’s latest models, such as GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini, even when more affordable alternatives are available. Why ChatGPT dominates Speed, reliability, and enterprise readiness are driving ChatGPT’s dominance. Many organizations prefer deploying proven models rather than investing time and resources into training or fine-tuning their own. That said, monitoring remains essential, even for the most trusted models. Teams need to track usage, benchmark performance, and detect anomalies to manage costs and maintain reliability. Most companies…

Bipartisan members of the U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs reintroduced legislation to save taxpayer dollars by improving how federal agencies purchase and manage software. The Strengthening Agency Management and Oversight of Software Assets (SAMOSA) Act requires federal agencies to conduct independent, comprehensive assessments of their software licensing purchases and develop plans to save costs. These assessments will provide Congress, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the General Services Administration (GSA) with critical insights to strengthen oversight of software contracts, streamline operations, and reduce wasteful spending.  Introduced by Senators Gary Peters, a Michigan Democrat and…
