Webinar: Learn How to Answer “Are We Exposed?” Faster After a New CVE

Tines will host a September 2026 webinar showing security teams how to combine SBOM, endpoint, cloud, and vulnerability data into one exposure assessment workflow.

The Hacker News published a contributed webinar announcement from Tines titled "Outpacing AI-Era Attacks Starts With Faster Time to Answer." Tines Co-founder Thomas Kinsella and Senior Security Operations Engineer Andrew Katz will demonstrate connecting SBOM data, endpoint application data, cloud inventory, and vulnerability feeds into a single interactive exposure view. The session also covers pairing AI-assisted analysis with deterministic, reviewed automation to reduce time from CVE disclosure to exposure determination.

The hidden risks of shadow AI

UK NCSC guidance warns shadow AI use by employees risks data exposure, lost data control, and attacker exploitation of vulnerable AI agents.

The UK NCSC warns that 'shadow AI'—use of AI tools not captured in organizational approved systems—is widespread, with 71% of employees reporting unapproved AI tool use. Risks include exposure of sensitive company and customer data, loss of visibility and control when data goes to consumer AI services, and new attack opportunities if adversaries exploit vulnerabilities in AI agents with access to corporate systems. The NCSC advises reducing rather than eliminating the risk through positive security culture, understanding employee needs, offering secure alternatives, and following its joint guidance on careful adoption of agentic AI services.

Anthropic’s $2 trillion IPO puts powerful external trustees in spotlight

Anthropic's $2 trillion IPO spotlights its external trustee governance, removable only by an 85% shareholder supermajority that may shift post-listing.

Anthropic's reported $2 trillion IPO is drawing scrutiny of its unusual governance, in which external trustees guard the company's mission and can only be removed with 85% shareholder voting power, a threshold that could change once it goes public. Compared with OpenAI's 2023 board crisis, Anthropic's structure is seen as less risky because it includes a built-in mechanism for shareholder intervention. Early investors knowingly backed the structure, citing its safety emphasis, but experts including Harvard's Fried urge public-market investors to scrutinize and price these arrangements before IPOs.

Learning Sparse Decision Trees via Transformer Variational Auto-Encoders

TREVIS uses a Tree Transformer VAE latent space to learn decision trees matching near-optimal predictive performance while improving structural sparsity.

TREVIS learns decision trees optimized for complex objectives by exploring the latent space of a Tree Transformer Variational Auto-Encoder (TTVAE). Mapping trees to continuous latent representations replaces the discrete search space with a continuous one, enabling gradient-based optimization through a differentiable surrogate model. Experiments show TREVIS matches the predictive performance of near-optimal algorithms while improving structural sparsity, targeting high-stakes contexts needing transparent decision logic.

The AI Malware Maturity Gap

Recorded Future introduces AIM3, a five-level maturity model for AI malware, showing current attacker AI use is mostly AI-assisted rather than autonomous.

Recorded Future proposes AIM3, a five-level model defining AI malware from LLM-translated to LLM-embedded, spanning experimentation to fully autonomous agentic campaigns. Public examples remain early-stage: PROMPTFLUX uses Google Gemini to rewrite its VBScript dropper (Level 1), while Lamehug/PROMPTSTEAL, attributed to APT28, invokes the HuggingFace API to generate reconnaissance commands (Level 3). The authors argue most current AI malware augments existing tradecraft rather than enabling one-click autonomous attacks.

Anthropic’s Text Watermarking Proves AI Companies Do Not Care at All About Writing

Anthropic will watermark Claude outputs by biasing low-stakes word choices, a method it says complies with EU AI regulations.

Anthropic detailed how future Claude versions will carry a statistical watermark by altering the source of randomness used to pick among near-synonymous words, adding no hidden characters or metadata; a key holder can compute a probability that text was Claude-generated. The company says internal testing showed no impact on quality, creativity, or readability, and frames the change as compliance with new EU AI regulations. Critics including John Gruber and Jeff Jarvis argue the method treats synonyms as interchangeable and devalues writing, a view echoed in this 404 Media opinion piece.
