Deploying thousands of AI agents creates a hidden security blind spot: undefined identities and over‑broad permissions. Without per‑agent workload identities and short‑lived credentials, audit trails vanish and least‑privilege enforcement collapses. The New Stack guide outlines four decisions developers must make to secure AI agents now.
The Linux Foundation announced Akrites, a shared Security Incident Response Team backed by Amazon, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, and 17 other leaders. It will coordinate vulnerability discovery, disclosure, and remediation for critical open‑source projects before AI‑augmented attackers can exploit them, giving maintainers a single trusted partner.
Dapr 1.18 introduces optional cryptographic signing of workflow history events, letting sidecars produce a tamper‑evident signature chain for each step. This lets operators prove which code ran and what data was used, securing AI agents and complex workflows on Kubernetes. The release also adds access‑policy controls and other durability improvements.
