The AlpacaX blog—security, product thinking, and what we're learning as we build AI agent execution control.

Product
Product update: what gets decided before a command runs
Choose how far commands are gated, confirm the server account during approval, and give automation credentials of its own.

Incident
SSO and MFA verify the login, not what the session does next
A five-month Zimbra zero-day shows what happens after an attacker gets inside an authenticated session.

Incident
Credential theft: entitlements without purpose
Storm-2949 turned one compromised identity into a cloud-wide breach—the gap a stolen credential's entitlements can never answer.

Insights
Offboarding access revocation: what a departing engineer leaves running
Disabling the account ends their login. It doesn't touch what they built, or tell you what they ran.

Incident
AgentForger: how one link forged a rogue AI agent with a borrowed employee session
One crafted URL stood up an attacker-controlled AI agent inside the org. No stolen credential, no malware.

Incident
An autonomous AI agent breached Hugging Face—here's the kill chain, and where execution control bounds it
An autonomous AI agent ran a real end-to-end intrusion on Hugging Face's production infrastructure. Here is the kill chain, and an honest map of where a runtime execution-control layer bounds it.

Insights
