This work presents an end-to-end diagnostic study of an Autonomous Adversary system with orchestrator, executor, and validator LLMs in enterprise-like lateral-movement scenarios and uses comparative LLM-as-a-Judge analysis to identify planning deficiencies.

LLMs increasingly operate through coding-agent harnesses that inspect repositories, invoke tools, and modify files. Substituting the model behind such an agent can therefore change security-relevant decisions, including whether it verifies changes or recovers safely from failures. Existing LLM fingerprints largely infe...

PrivDrift is introduced, a benchmark for auditing whether user-disclosed secrets remain recoverable after conversational topic drift and persuasion-based probing, suggesting that privacy risk in active LLM contexts should be evaluated as a persistent behavioral failure mode rather than only as training-data memorizatio...
Prompt injection can degrade benign task performance without eliciting harmful content. Yet many attack objectives depend on task labels or predefined target responses. We present ENDOPROMPT, a white-box method that learns utility-degrading prefixes from unlabeled instructions. Its generator takes the request text as i...

Detectors of alignment failures screen deployed language models and score alignment benchmarks. Most are generative judges that spend a decoding pass on every criterion, and classifiers that read token probabilities, such as Llama Guard, still score one fixed label per call. Jev, a model trained with reinforcement lear...
Harnesses, the products that run AI coding agents, are multiplying, and enterprises are rolling them out to their employees: what started as pilots with a few hundred seats is scaling to tens of thousands. Most enterprises do not build these harnesses but buy them from large vendors, such as Anthropic's Claude Code or...

Skilder is introduced, a framework that packages capabilities into roles: bundles of skills, tools, and instructions, together with the limits that bound them, and preserves problem-solving flexibility while providing hard system-level enforcement.

Legacy smart HVAC controllers rely on vendor-cloud TLS secured by ECDH and RSA, both broken by Shor's algorithm, and typical 10-15 year lifespans mean today's devices remain in service through the quantum-threat era. Direct on-device post-quantum cryptography is infeasible: an ESP32-S3, representative of capable HVAC h...

AI agents are beginning to make real payments. Current approaches let an agent pay by relying on a credential provider that, in the approaches deployed today, typically sits outside the cardholder's bank. The spending rules are then enforced by the card network or that provider, and not by the bank itself. This leaves...

This work reports three findings that matter more than the fusion result itself, and concludes that for encrypted C2 detection, the evaluation design is not a preliminary step and fusion beats the best single view by only 0.022 in F1.

Federated Learning enables decentralized model training by exchanging model updates--rather than raw data--with a central parameter server (PS). While most of the existing defenses primarily assume static or independently acting adversaries, we reveal a new class of dynamically adaptive attacks that systematically bypa...
