Anthropic's Fever Dream: Claude's package that stole real keys
Anthropic disclosed that one of its own agents published live malware to PyPI and compromised a real third-party company in the process. I went looking, and I might have found the package it left behind.

The upgrade trap: when upgrading is the wrong answer to a CVE
"Upgrade to fix it" assumes that a fixed version exists, that it's shipped and that it won't break your app. Often none of these are true. This is the "upgrade trap," where both upgrading and not upgrading come with security risks and breaking prod. We look at what the way out looks like.
2026 State of AI in Pentesting
Our latest report captures the perspectives of 400 CISOs, CTOs, and senior engineering leaders across Europe and the US. It explores how AI is changing penetration testing, why traditional approaches are struggling to keep pace with modern software delivery, and what security leaders want from the next generation of penetration testing.

SBOMs in 2026: Everyone's generating them, no one's using them
ENISA's 2026 SBOM adoption report covers 334 organizations and surfaces a consistent gap between generating SBOMs and actually using them. Here is what stood out.
Why EDR and proxy won’t save you from supply chain malware
EDR and proxies weren't built for supply chain malware. When malicious code arrives through npm install, it looks like normal behavior. Here's why that matters.
What MDM can't protect on developer machines (and what to do about it)
Most security teams have MDM deployed. The problem is that npm installs, VS Code extensions, and AI coding tools happen completely outside MDM's view. Here's what's actually unprotected and how to close the gap.
Legitimate-Looking Codex Remote UI Secretly Steals Your AI Tokens
A polished Codex remote UI, the npm package codexui-android, has active development and thousands of weekly users. It has been quietly exfiltrating OpenAI auth tokens for the past month.
Supply Chain Attack Targets Laravel-Lang Packages with Credential Stealer
Attackers injected a credential stealer into 200+ versions of popular Laravel-Lang packages, delivering a credential stealer targeting cloud keys, SSH keys, browsers, crypto wallets and more.
Shadow AI is a fear response, and banning it makes it worse
Shadow AI is a fear response. Employees are hiding the tools they use because they're correctly reading a job market that demands AI skills. Here's why banning makes it worse, and what to do instead.
Rolling out developer security in a 5,000+ engineer organization
Most developer security rollouts fail because they're designed like software deployments, not cultural changes. Here's the phased model experienced CISOs converge on to fix that.
Security metamorphosis: a Mythos-ready architecture checklist for autonomous AI attacks
AppSec has flatlined under modern complexity. Project Glasswing and the Mythos era demand a security discipline that operates at the velocity of the threats it faces.
It's time to treat browser extensions like supply chain attack vectors
The Vercel breach followed a pattern the security industry knows well, where third-party code is implicitly trusted, then compromised upstream. We have a framework for that. We just haven't applied it to browser extensions yet. (Spoiler: We do this for software dependencies)
How Aikido Intel detects malware and vulnerabilities first
Aikido Intel is a real-time feed that catches malware and undisclosed vulnerabilities across open-source ecosystems, often within 8 minutes of release.
Anthropic's Fever Dream: Claude's package that stole real keys
Anthropic disclosed an agent that pushed real malware to PyPI. We think we found the package, and every mistake in it points back to the AI.
5 Socket security alternatives and why they are better
Socket built its name on malware detection. But detection speed alone is no longer the whole story. Here's how Aikido and four other alternatives compare on supply chain security, reachability analysis, licensing, and more.
