Microsoft published a blog post arguing that organizations should treat AI agents as a present insider threat rather than a future risk. Agents with access to critical systems can fail, be manipulated or be compromised, and their behavior can drift mid-run through prompt injection in external documents or untrusted data. Microsoft's answe…
Microsoft has warned that AI agents with access to enterprise systems can be manipulated through prompt injection, compromised inputs or shifts in task context. Agents do not need malicious intent to cause harm: their ability to read corporate data, invoke tools, approve transactions and talk to other agents widens exposure once untrusted…
Microsoft announced new enterprise security features on 19 October 2026 to monitor and control AI agents, treating them as potential insider threats.

The codes hide destination URLs from filters that cannot extract and inspect them, and they move the vi…
A keynote at Black Hat USA 2026 by associate professor Yan Shoshitaishvili and his undergraduate students at Arizona State University examined the growing use of AI models for vulnerability discovery. The team used the 479 Linux kernel vulnerabilities attributed to Anthropic's Claude Mythos (as reported by the Washington Post) as a benchm…
ESET Chief Security Evangelist Tony Anscombe reviews the main cybersecurity stories of September 2026 in a monthly video roundup.
