Extending Security to MCP Servers: Closing a Critical Gap

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a de facto standard for providing structured access to privileged systems for AI agents and external integrations. It acts as a USB-C port for AI, enabling faster innovation by allowing organizations to expose tools, resources, and workflows without the time-consuming work of building APIs.  Adoption has surged in recent…

AI-enabled device code phishing campaign exploits OAuth flow for account takeover

A phishing campaign that bypasses the standard 15-minute expiration window through automation and dynamic code generation, leveraging the OAuth Device Code Authentication flow to compromise organizational accounts at scale, has been observed by the Microsoft Defender Security Research team. The campaign uses AI-assisted infrastructure and end-to-end automation. Attack overview Device Code Authentication is a legitimate…

A nearly undetectable LLM attack needs only a handful of poisoned samples

Prompt engineering has become a standard part of how large language models are deployed in production, and it introduces an attack surface most organizations have not yet addressed. Researchers have developed and tested a prompt-based backdoor attack method, called ProAttack, that achieves attack success rates approaching 100% on multiple text classification benchmarks without altering sample…

Betterleaks: Open-source secrets scanner

Secrets scanning has become standard practice across engineering organizations, and Gitleaks has been one of the most widely used tools in that space. The author of that project has now released a new tool called Betterleaks, which is designed to scan git repositories, directories, and standard input for leaked credentials, API keys, tokens, and passwords.…

Why 2025’s agentic AI boom is a CISO’s worst nightmare

By late 2025, the enterprise AI landscape had shifted. Standard RAG systems are failing at a rate of 80%, forcing a pivot to autonomous agents. But while “agentic RAG” solves the reliability problem, it introduces a terrifying new one: the autonomous execution of malicious instructions. If 2023 was the year of the chatbot and 2024…
