Countering Adversary AI Agents That Run the Whole Operation

GTG-1002 showed an AI agent running recon through exfiltration at machine speed across roughly 30 targets. A blue-team analysis of the behavioral tells, the identity and SIEM signals that expose autonomous operations, how to break the adversary’s loop, and where defensive AI agents help versus where the human-in-the-loop line stays.

When netstat Lies: Detecting eBPF Magic-Packet Backdoors on Linux

A clean netstat is not proof of safety: eBPF backdoors like LinkPro keep an internal listener, rewrite ports through XDP/TC, and can make bpftool lie about themselves. The durable signal is the bpf() syscall at load time, and on Cilium-heavy fleets, telling real loaders from noise is most of the work.

Image Mode RHEL Moves the Mutable Surface to /etc and /var

Bootc and rpm-ostree turn the root filesystem read-only and push state into a handful of writable paths. That quietly invalidates half your host integrity detections. Here is the new shape of the problem and what to instrument before the first ATO review notices.
