Hermes AI Agent Weaponized in Thai Finance Ministry Cyberattack

Attackers used the Hermes AI agent to automate post-exploitation activities against Thailand’s Ministry of Finance, marking one of the first documented cases of an AI agent being weaponized in a real-world state-targeted cyberattack. Security researchers at Hunt.io discovered the artifacts on a compromised C2 server. The operator installed Hermes Agent (by Nous Research), switched off […]

Claude-of-Duty: 55,000 lines of 3D game code from a single prompt

Matt Shumer did it again. His latest project, Claude-of-Duty, is a first-person shooter built entirely from a single prompt to Claude, generating about 55,000 lines of Three.js code with zero external art assets. The result is a playable 3D FPS that looks more like a tech demo than a AAA game, but that misses the […]

Slopsquatting, phantom domains, and HalluSquatting are the same AI attack

There is a flurry of names floating around for essentially the same attack: slopsquatting, phantom domains, and HalluSquatting. They all describe one thing – attackers registering domains that large language models hallucinate, then tricking developers or users into visiting those domains through AI-generated content. The core mechanism is simple. LLMs do not know the difference […]

Managed Virtual Network for Evaluations Now GA in Microsoft Foundry

Microsoft Foundry just made managed virtual network support generally available for evaluations. If you are running AI evaluation jobs against models or agents that sit behind private endpoints, this is one of those infrastructure features that does not sound exciting until you have tried to do it without it. The short version: Foundry now handles […]

Azure Monitor now protects AI telemetry with dedicated access controls

The problem: AI prompts in the wrong table If you’ve been sending AI application telemetry to Application Insights, your users’ prompts and LLM responses have been sitting in the same traces and custom events tables as your infrastructure logs. That means anyone with access to your Application Insights instance — typically the whole monitoring team […]

Fake Claude app on Bing ads delivers SectopRAT malware

How the attack works A malvertising campaign on Bing is pushing a fake Claude desktop app installer that delivers SectopRAT, a .NET-based remote access trojan. The campaign, tracked by researchers as FakeAgent, has been active since at least April 2026 and has compromised 29 organizations so far, according to Huntress and IT Security Guru reports. […]

Azure Monitor adds dedicated storage for sensitive AI telemetry

If you run AI powered applications on Azure, your Application Insights logs have been storing something you might not have thought about. Every prompt you send to an LLM and every response the model returns has been sitting in the same logs as your standard application telemetry, accessible to anyone with log read permissions. That […]

Agent mode for GitHub Copilot arrives in SQL Server Management Studio

SQL Server Management Studio just got a lot more useful if you rely on GitHub Copilot. The public preview of Agent mode for Copilot in SSMS means you can describe database tasks in plain English and let the AI figure out the steps. No more clicking through half a dozen dialog boxes to check wait […]

GitHub Copilot and Claude Code connectors now generally available in Microsoft Agent Framework

Microsoft has shipped generally available connectors for GitHub Copilot and Claude Code in the Microsoft Agent Framework, letting developers build .NET and Python agents that delegate coding tasks to either system without writing custom adapter code. The connectors plug into the Agent Framework’s standard tool-use pipeline, so agents can call out to Copilot or Claude […]

Microsoft Agent Framework Hits GA with Multi-Agent Orchestration and the Magentic Pattern

Microsoft Agent Framework now supports multi-agent orchestration at GA, and the most interesting part is the Magentic pattern — a dynamic orchestration approach that picks which agent handles what based on the task, rather than following a fixed workflow. The patterns available The framework ships with five orchestration patterns out of the box. Sequential runs […]
