Exaforce extends its AI security tool to monitor more than just Claude
Exaforce AI Security extends beyond Claude to monitor OpenAI, Gemini, and Copilot agents using existing SOC telemetry, no new endpoint agents.
Exaforce expanded its June Claude Compliance API integration into Exaforce AI Security, adding monitoring for OpenAI, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and OAuth-connected AI apps. The tool inventories AI agents by correlating EDR, cloud, SaaS, and model-provider logs without new gateways or endpoint agents, and can respond by revoking sessions, deactivating API keys, isolating devices, or killing agent processes via existing controls. Analysts note the agentless approach lowers friction but lacks runtime inspection and inline blocking offered by competitors such as Palo Alto Prisma AIRS, SentinelOne Prompt AI Agent Security, and CrowdStrike Falcon Guardian. A March 2026 Cloud Security Alliance survey found 68% of organizations cannot distinguish human from AI-agent activity and 74% report AI agents receive excessive access.
Hackers Leverage Claude to Exfiltrate Secrets from 1.8M Android apps
ShinyHunters-linked operators used Claude to scan 1.8M Android apps for hardcoded secrets, fueling intrusions across 40+ tenants.
Anthropic's September 2026 threat intelligence report describes a French-speaking operator (aliases MeowSHA, frkoo, blazespider) tied to ShinyHunters who ran 10 AWS EC2 workers and used Claude to decompile and scan 1.8 million Android APKs for hardcoded secrets with TruffleHog. Verified credentials were sorted into 100+ Telegram channels and paired with GitHub PAT harvesting, providing initial access for confirmed intrusions. In one supply-chain incident the actors extracted data from roughly 200 downstream customer organizations and dumped 2,100+ Azure AD token sets across 40+ corporate tenants in about 34 hours using AI agents. Anthropic banned tied accounts and stressed its own systems were not compromised.
[AINews] OpenAI to reach AGI bar by end-2026
OpenAI chief scientist Jakub Pachocki says unreleased Astra model meets the 'Automated AI Research Intern' goal; Altman expects internal AGI declaration by December 2026.
OpenAI chief scientist Jakub Pachocki says the unreleased Astra model fulfills the September 2026 'Automated AI Research Intern' target. Sam Altman told TIME he expects OpenAI to declare AGI achieved internally by December 2026. The roundup also covers Zhipu's GLM-5.3-Flash (320B total parameters, 18B active, 1M context), Google's Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash video model topping the Text-to-Video Arena, and the $399 open-source Microduck biped robot from Pollen Robotics and Hugging Face.
