lmao I can't stop laughing claude-code has a "Frustrated User Detection" There's a regex that detects when you're angry ( fully hard coded btw) When triggered, it changes Claude's behavior/UI state. Claude literally knows when you're cussing at it.

"Offense and defense aren't peers. Defense is offense's child." - @JohnLaTwC We built an LLM-powered AMSI provider and paired it against a red team agent. Then, @0xdab0 wrote a blog about it: dreadnode.io/blog/llm-powere… A few observations from the experiment: >>> To advance, we must generate unique, ground-truth datasets. >>> Defenses will need to live at the edge. >>> The real potential lies in the interaction between red and blue. >>> This is a blueprint for generative adversarial reinforcement learning.

We analyzed @redcanary detection data from the first half of 2024 to produce a Threat Detection Report midyear update focusing on a trend (identities) and a few emergent threats and techniques. Useful insight for everyone from the SOC to the CISO's office: redcanary.com/threat-detecti…

.@Scott_Wiener continues to falsely claim narrow opposition to SB 1047. When in reality there is massive public outcry across research, academic, public and private business and finance. Here is a mega roundup of recent announcements that fully debunk the Senator's claims 🧵

@RadPowerBikes I took my new RadWagon 5 out for its first ride and a spoke broke immediately. 😔 Further inspection revealed more loose and bent spokes. Customer support couldn't expedite a replacement rear wheel. I need assistance ASAP. Thanks!

An important question looms in the infosec conversation about AI: Will generative AI tools better benefit defenders or adversaries? Lifted from the trends section of our 2024 Threat Detection Report, here’s how we score the fight redcanary.com/threat-detecti…

This is interesting research that's worth reading. I'd encourage readers to also consider what's NOT here - these groups didn't use LLMs to make new malware or find zero-days. They used them to help research and write scripts. I'm not panicking about this...

Amazon has an overwhelming number of interconnected security and identity products for AWS. A handful of us at @redcanary tried to make sense of the madness by writing a visibility and observability guide with collection tips for logging and detection. redcanary.com/resources/guid…

Its fascinating that companies are willing to give you free access to a GPT model on their cooking websites. GPUs everywhere are weeping. Shipping production GenAI software with security in mind is such a fascinating topic these days.
