Researchers from Adversa AI have uncovered a vulnerability that enables attackers to exploit Claude Code’s automated capabilities, possibly introducing a new risk to software supply chains. Agentic AI systems are built to run automatically and often invisibly, helping streamline our workflows. AI-powered code assistants follow this same principle. Claude Code, released in May 2025, has quickly become the top choice among startups and elite engineering teams, earning the highest satisfaction scores compared to rival tools. Adversa AI has identified a technique through which an attacker could hijack Claude Code’s autonomous behavior to deliver remote code execution (RCE) with minimal effort—or…

May 7, 2026 Katie Gamanji, CNCF TOC Featured CNCF Project The CNCF Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) has officially voted to advance Microcks to CNCF incubating project status. Introducing Microcks Today’s development teams increasingly build software as a network of loosely coupled APIs and microservices—but this architecture introduces a major hurdle: how do you develop and test a single service in isolation when it relies on dozens of others? Microcks tackles this problem head-on with an open source, cloud native solution for API simulation and contract testing. With Microcks, you can instantly spin up working mock servers from your existing API…

The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled businesses to gather enormous volumes of data from diverse sources—sensors, devices, software applications, and enterprise systems. Yet a major challenge emerges when this data remains trapped in disconnected systems, forming what are known as information silos. In such scenarios, meaningful analysis and informed decision-making become extremely difficult.The ideal path from scattered data to intelligent, data-driven operations lies in system integration—a discipline that connects, synchronizes, and fully leverages the power of technology across an organization.Why are data silos problematic in IoT environments?How does system integration drive digital transformation?What technologies make effective…

Sponsored Content The artificial intelligence landscape is now packed with numerous options, ranging from chatbots and writing helpers to image makers, coding assistants, automation tools, and agent-building platforms. While most of these solutions address only a single need, Abacus AI aims to tackle a more significant challenge: providing individuals and teams with a comprehensive AI system capable of performing a wide array of tasks. This system can engage in conversation, conduct research, automate workflows, produce media, create applications, and operate continuously active agents. Abacus AI stands out as one of the most ambitious AI platforms currently accessible. It’s also not…

Human subjectsAll human samples included in this study were collected with informed consent for research use and received approval from the Institutional Review Boards of Yale University School of Medicine and Washington University School of Medicine, in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki (2013). These samples, obtained from a total of 123 human subjects, were divided into four cohorts.Cohort 1Intact and dissociated tumour samples were collected from seven patients (four with colon cancer and three with melanoma) at the time of surgery. Each sample underwent bulk RNA sequencing and the dissociated tumour samples also underwent scRNA-seq.Cohort 2Matched…

Bitcoin BTC$81,437.09, the leading cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has climbed from around $63,000 to above $80,000 over the last three months, per CoinDesk data. And the indicators that professional traders monitor are now all aligned toward a common target: $85,000.This upward move isn’t just about the price tag — it’s about the underlying forces driving it.On-chain dynamicsFurther upside appears probable because bitcoin has moved past two critical thresholds that on-chain analysts regard as among the most significant in the market: the True Market Mean at $78,200 and the Short-Term Holder Cost Basis at $79,100.BTC has topped its True Market Mean…

Badge Is Creating the Trust Framework Your AI Agents Have Been Missing This piece builds on my earlier conversation with the Badge team at RSAC 2025, which led to a follow-up discussion at RSAC 2026 in San Francisco. You can find that original article here. Here, we explore how Badge is tackling one of enterprise security’s most persistent challenges — building portable, cryptographic trust that spans humans, machines, and AI agents — all without relying on a single stored shared secret. Spend enough time walking the RSA Conference exhibition floor, and the same themes start echoing everywhere. Every vendor is…

I have been building with AI agents and MCP tools for a while now, and one question kept coming up: how do you give an agent real, authenticated access to AWS without handing it the keys to the kingdom? Today, there is an answer. I’m happy to announce the general availability of the AWS MCP Server, a managed remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents and coding assistants secure, authenticated access to all AWS services through a small, fixed set of tools. The AWS MCP Server is part of the Agent Toolkit for AWS, a suite of…
