CoDeL is presented, a defense that hardens agent against an attack distribution it reshapes as it trains, and reduces attack success rate (ASR) by 88.5% and outperforms other baselines largely (+38.0%).

Two robustness notions are formalized, each mechanism by ablation is validated by ablation, and how often the multi-source precondition holds on sanctions designations and software supply-chain provenance is measured.

SecProbe is introduced, a framework for adaptive evaluation that combines Item Response Theory (IRT) with on-demand synthesis of repository-scale vulnerability-repair tasks and achieves comparable agent ability estimates while requiring agents to solve up to 29.5\% fewer tasks.

HESP is presented, a controller that holds the investigation procedure outside the model, which keeps a ledger of competing explanations, selects read-only probes by expected information gain per cost, accepts only verdicts backed by current evidence, can end an investigation itself, and journals every prediction befor...
This work evaluates Jev, Laya, Decider, and Bespoke Nimble against specialized classifiers and language-model judges across prompt-injection detection, interaction-risk judgment, and harmful-request screening, examining decision accuracy, calibration, and selective automation.
Tool-using large language model (LLM) agents turn credential hygiene from a storage problem into an execution-security problem. A key pasted into a prompt, or embedded in a system prompt or tool configuration, crosses from an authentication boundary into a data pipeline, where it may persist in conversation history, lo...

This work presents the formal verification and bare-metal empirical validation of WERR (Waves&Errors) and Phase III Orbital Error Dynamics (OED), a non-tensor decision paradigm that procedurally synthesizes non-linear decision boundaries on demand from a 24-byte coordinate seed.
Browser-use agents often carry information in their context as they move between websites. While it may be necessary for task completion, it also creates a privacy risk, especially when the information contains a private fact regarding the user. For example, an agent may learn a user's affiliation after reading a membe...

Client-Resolved Generation (CRG), a genera- tion interface that separates server-side generation from the lexical realization of input-derived content, is introduced, which provides a practical interface for privacy-sensitive cloud LLMs by reducing plaintext exposure across both input and output pathways while preserv-...

PriCon, an end-to-end framework that transforms the task itself through recoverable mathematical reformulation rather than hiding it among alternatives, is proposed, which reduces cloud-side task-intent inference Hit@1 to nearly 0, and preserves cloud-assisted utility.

LLM agents now execute tasks end to end with permission to change real systems and increasingly orchestrate subagents that differ in capability and cost. Prior work treats the choice of subagent as an optimization problem. Yet the orchestrator makes this choice from the identities that subagents display, and an attacke...

Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
Critical flaws, compromised release channels and agentic AI threats landed within days of each other in mid-October 2026. Why “Black October” may say more about how well we now find weaknesses than about the attacks themselves. The post Black October? The Week AI Changed the Cybersecurity Conversation appeared first on GPT-Lab.
