Your security stack is a set of specialists, each guarding one territory. Exposed credentials don't respect the boundaries between them, and 64% of the ones found valid in 2022 were still valid four years later.

Attackers dumped everything they harvested from LiteLLM builds during a 40-minute window in March. Here is what is inside and what it says about where secrets live.
BSidesLV 2026 presenters showed how attackers are increasingly exploiting valid trust relationships instead of breaking through the front door, and what we need to do about it.
AI agent security is an identity problem, but it often starts as a secrets and credential problem. Do your AI agents operate using static API keys, tokens, and other reusable credentials? They might bypass traditional identity controls, creating a governance blind spot.
Most vault programs track a numerator without a denominator. See how vault coverage turns secrets management into a measurable, reportable control.
A new Mini Shai-Hulud wave hit keyv and 800+ npm packages. The malware now scans 469 secret locations, including AI agents, crypto wallets, and CI/CD tools.
Millions of fake commits are flooding GitHub's public feed. We followed the trail to a rebranded gambling site hiding behind a defunct lottery brand.
A leaked n8n API key is only the start. GitGuardian's research traces the full chain, from exposed tokens and weak keys to CVE-2026-25053 and the N8N_ENCRYPTION_KEY that protects every stored credential, then lays out a hardened configuration to break it.
Credential harvesting is how attackers collect valid secrets at scale. See how it works, why developer machines are a prime target, and how to find them first.
After a laptop compromise, the hard question is which credentials were on it. See why blast radius scoping is hard, and how to turn it into a revocable list.
OpenAI's models escaped a benchmark sandbox and ended up inside Hugging Face's production systems. The attack made history; the openings it used were reusable credentials and flat internal access, and those are fixable now.
Learn how to measure time to revoke for exposed credentials using validation and invalidation timestamps, remediation SLAs, and CISO reporting metrics.
