Looks Can Be Deceiving: Silent Overwrite of Agent Skills

Agent skills are the newest piece of plumbing quietly making its way onto developer machines. They're easy to install, they get to call into the user's tools on the agent's behalf, and once they're in place they tend to stay in place. While auditing the popular installer vercel-labs/skills, we saw several ways a bad actor can make the tool install something other than what the user thought they were installing.

How the Wrong Framing Creates New Risk

The other day, someone said, “AI security is fundamentally data security”. And this got me thinking. Is it? Can AI security simply be solved with a typical data security strategy? It’s one of those statements that sounds correct when you first hear it, and it gets a few nods in the room, but then it quietly does a lot of damage to how people think about the problem. So, let’s dive into it, because the statement is really quite misleading.

Defend against frontier cyber models: Cloudflare's architecture as customer zero

A few weeks ago, we wrote about Project Glasswing and what we observed when we pointed cyber frontier models at our own code. Since then, we’ve seen that the part of the post that has resonated most deeply is the argument that the architecture around the vulnerability matters more than the speed of the patch.

How to Prevent AI Data Leakage

Artificial intelligence tools have completely revolutionized the way we work, boosting productivity to heights we couldn’t have imagined just a few years ago. But the upside comes with a high-stakes catch: every time an employee pastes proprietary code, financial records, or sensitive customer data into a public AI prompt, your company is at risk. As Shadow AI adoption skyrockets, implementing robust data leakage prevention is no longer an IT checklist item — it’s a business imperative.

Agentic AI is Calling Your APIs: Why Autonomous Agents are the New Attack Surface

On April 27, 2026, a threshold was crossed that the internet had never hit before. Cloudflare Radar data confirmed that automated systems, such as bots, crawlers, and autonomous AI agents, now generate 57.4% of all HTTP requests for web content.

What is accelerating this transformation is agentic AI: autonomous systems that browse, search, authenticate, and transact on behalf of users without any human intervention mid-task.
