I think AI agents are going to need an operating layer

The more autonomous AI systems become, the less I think individual security tools are enough. Right now we have agents with tool access, browser access, MCP servers, memory, workflows, external actions, and long running sessions. Most of the conversati…

Your AI agent just got hijacked. You have no idea it happened.

Not a hypothetical. This is the default state of most autonomous agents running in production right now. An attacker doesn’t send one suspicious message. They have a conversation. Turn 1 looks like curiosity. Turn 3 looks like clarification. Turn 6 is …

If your AI agent can send emails, browse websites, or call tools, I want to test something with you

Most security tools for AI agents check one message at a time. Arc Gate tracks the whole conversation. That matters because the attacks that actually work in production don’t happen in one message. They happen across 8 turns. Each one looks clean. By t…

The attack on AI agents that no security tool catches

Been working on AI agent security for a while and the attack that concerns me most barely gets talked about. Not the obvious stuff like “ignore previous instructions.” Those get caught. The scary one is when an attacker spreads the attack across multip…

Built a live red team environment for AI agent security — try to get a prompt injection through

AI agents that can use tools have a serious problem: any content they read can contain hidden instructions that hijack them. A poisoned webpage tells your agent to forward credentials. A malicious email tells it to ignore its guidelines. Built Arc Gate…

Your AI agent is one tool call away from doing something you didn’t authorize. Here’s the fix.

The attack doesn’t come from your users. It comes from your agent’s environment, the emails it reads, the webpages it visits, the documents it retrieves, the database rows it queries. Every piece of external content your agent processes is a potential …

LLM Guard scored 0/8 on a USENIX 2025 multi-turn jailbreak. Here’s what caught it instead.

Crescendo (Russinovich et al., USENIX Security 2025) is a multi-turn jailbreak designed specifically to evade output-based monitors. Each individual turn looks completely innocent. The attack only exists across turns. LLM Guard result: 0/8 turns detect…

Your AI agent is one poisoned webpage away from doing something catastrophic

If your agent browses the web, reads emails, or pulls from a database — any of that content can contain hidden instructions that hijack it. This isn’t theoretical. It’s happening in production right now. A webpage footer tells your agent to forward cre…
