Project Glasswing found a 27-year-old zero-day in OpenBSD. Autonomously.

The finding problem just got solved. The remediation problem just got harder.

Industry average MTTR for a critical CVE: 60+ days. More CVEs, same infrastructure. Do the math.

The Illusion of the Clean Perimeter The modern software development lifecycle is no longer operating at human scale.

AI pulls open source dependencies faster than humans can vet them. The perimeter was never the problem.

The ingredients were.

We broke down where application layer security actually stands in 2026.

The axios attack highlights a gap that scanners alone can't bridge. When a hijacked credential pushes a RAT to a registry, the code has no provenance and no history. We need to pair our detection with immutable, built-from-source open source software to stay ahead.
