Autonomous AI Agents Explained: Risks, Capabilities & Security Gaps

Apr 17, 2026 By Sysdig In Sysdig
Autonomous AI agents are no longer experimental—they’re writing code, executing commands, and making decisions in real time. But as AI coding agents become more powerful, they’re also introducing a new and often invisible attack surface. In this video, we break down: AI agents can install packages, run scripts, and modify systems instantly—often without traditional visibility. That means security teams need to rethink how they monitor and protect their environments.

Explainable AI in Email Security: From Black Box to Clarity

Apr 17, 2026 By Acronis In Acronis
Generative AI and sophisticated social engineering have reshaped the cybersecurity landscape in 2026. Traditional "castle-and-moat" defenses centered on the Secure Email Gateway (SEG) are increasingly pressured by machine-scale attacks designed to bypass static filters. As organizations shift toward Integrated Cloud Email Security (ICES) models, a new technical and psychological barrier appears: the "black box" problem of defensive AI.

Why API Discovery Is the First Step to Securing AI

Apr 17, 2026 By Wallarm In Wallarm
AI risk doesn’t live in the model. It lives in the APIs behind it. Every AI interaction triggers a chain of API calls across your environment. Many of those APIs aren’t documented or tracked. That’s your real exposure. Shadow API discovery gives you visibility into those hidden endpoints, so you can find them before attackers do. If you don’t know which APIs your AI relies on, you can’t secure the system.

Stopping AI Agent Attacks: How Falcon AIDR Blocks Prompt Injection

Apr 17, 2026 By CrowdStrike In CrowdStrike
See how attackers can exploit AI agents like OpenClaw using hidden prompt injection techniques—and how CrowdStrike Falcon AIDR stops them in real time. In this demo, we show how a seemingly harmless resume contains invisible malicious instructions that trick an AI agent into leaking sensitive data, including API tokens and system access. Then, we replay the same scenario with Falcon AIDR enabled, where the attack is detected and blocked before any damage is done.

Exposed LLM Infrastructure: How Attackers Find and Exploit Misconfigured AI Deployments

Apr 17, 2026 By Aayush Vishnoi In Indusface
Someone is scanning your LLM infrastructure right now. They are not waiting for you to finish your security review. Between October 2025 and January 2026, GreyNoise’s honeypot infrastructure captured 91,403 attack sessions targeting exposed LLM endpoints. These were two distinct campaigns systematically mapping the expanding attack surface of misconfigured AI deployments. Your team is moving fast on AI. LLM servers are going live, inference APIs are being connected, MCP endpoints are being spun up.

7 Practical Ways to Shrink Your Digital Footprint in 2026

7 Practical Ways to Shrink Your Digital Footprint in 2026

Apr 17, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
The average internet user now leaks more personal data in a single day of routine browsing than most people disclosed in a decade two generations ago. Ad networks track page views, data brokers aggregate public records into sellable dossiers, and AI systems ingest everything from social posts to leaked databases to build inferred profiles of individuals. Privacy Rights Clearinghouse has catalogued more than 750 data brokers operating in the United States alone, and industry analysts estimate the broader data-broker economy will grow past half a trillion dollars by the end of the decade.

AI Agents Are Already Running the Enterprise. Security Hasn't Caught Up.

Apr 16, 2026 By Greg Zemlin In Zenity
For years, conversations about AI security risks were framed as forward-looking. Organizations were told to prepare for a future where autonomous agents would act on their behalf, access sensitive systems, and make consequential decisions without human intervention at every step. That future, it turns out, is now.
