About

AgentSec Brief is the daily brief on securing agentic AI. Every weekday morning it covers what changed in the security of AI agents, and what to do about it.

What's in every issue

  • Agent threats and vulnerabilities: CVEs and advisories in MCP, coding agents and agent frameworks, with affected and fixed versions.
  • Incidents: what agents actually broke or leaked, and the control that would have stopped it.
  • Defenses, tools and GitHub: new tools and repos worth piloting, judged on maturity rather than hype.
  • Alignment and safety: lab and government evaluations, translated into threat-model changes.
  • Protocols, policy and compliance: emerging agent standards (MCP, A2A, agent identity), new law and regulation, and a dated compliance calendar.
  • Autonomy, swarms and robotics: humanoids, military autonomy, and attacks on physical AI.
  • Efficient compute and open models: inference efficiency and open-weight models, including Chinese labs, with the security angle.
  • Learn: the concepts behind the news, such as harnesses, scaffolds, agent identity and information-flow control.

Every section ends with a TL;DR: Case (what happened) and Mitigation (how to fix it).

How it's made

Candidates are collected from more than 60 sources, scored for relevance, and checked against the primary source before they're included. Unverified figures are labeled, vendor benchmarks are marked self-reported, and every item ends with a concrete action. The brief is vendor-neutral and does not accept payment for coverage. Sponsored placements, if they ever appear, will be clearly labeled.

Who publishes it

AgentSec Brief is published by AM Technology Solutions, an agentic and on-prem AI architecture practice founded by a technologist with more than 20 years in SaaS and cloud.
