Agentic First Security -- Customer Brown Bag - August 20th, 2026

Join Jeremy Powell, CISO of Sumo Logic, to learn how AI-powered agents are reshaping modern security operations. Discover the key principles, governance, and best practices for building an agentic security program that enhances analyst productivity, accelerates threat response, and strengthens organizational resilience.

From signals to systemic risk: Building Risk AI

Security and engineering teams contend with a constant stream of signals about vulnerabilities, incidents, misconfigurations, identity risks, control gaps, and other findings across their environments. But an individual finding’s severity does not always reflect its potential organizational impact.

Detect vulnerabilities in LLM applications with Datadog's AI-native SAST

AI coding tools help developers build and deploy LLM applications quickly, but this speed comes with new security risks. Traditional static application security testing (SAST) tools that are pattern based weren’t designed to detect LLM-specific issues such as prompt injection sinks and exposed system prompts. These vulnerabilities often don’t become apparent until applications are already running in production, when remediation is more difficult and expensive.

Decommissioning AI Agents: What to Look For in the Tooling

Gartner predicted in mid-2025 that more than forty percent of agentic AI projects would be canceled by the end of 2027, citing escalating costs, unclear business value and inadequate risk controls. Treat the figure as a forward-looking estimate rather than a measurement, since canceled projects tend to be quietly renamed, absorbed or left to lapse rather than formally closed. ‍

Why Business Leaders Need a New Response Model to AI-Enabled Incidents

Originally published by Cybersecurity Insider. Over the past decade, cybersecurity threats have evolved from a technical issue into a key driver of business and operational risk. Artificial intelligence is accelerating that shift even further, changing the game once again. In 2026, AI in cybersecurity is multifaceted: a tool for defense and incident response, but also a powerful accelerator for attackers. AI-enabled incidents rarely stay contained within the security function.

We Had 13 Engineers Spend Three Months Finding Vulnerabilities with LLMs

Blame for all flaws belongs to the flawed human author. Historically, the bottleneck for finding security bugs in software was human bandwidth. As pointed out in this great post by Tom Ptacek, it appears that large language models are exceptionally good at finding them with simple prompting. This adds substantial bandwidth to the effort of finding bugs.

How NER Finds Sensitive Data Hidden in Documents #shorts

Sensitive data detection was much easier when information lived inside structured databases. Tables, columns, field names, and predictable data types gave security teams a clear map of where sensitive information lived. But when sensitive data moved into documents and PDFs, that map disappeared. Names, addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers, and other sensitive information could be buried inside natural language.
