API Gateway Security Baseline for 2026
A practical security baseline for API gateways in 2026, covering authentication, rate limiting, schema validation, observability, and the operational habits that keep gateways trustworthy.
Stopping Risky Dependencies At PR Time, Not Production
Catching risky dependencies after they reach production is expensive. PR-time policy gates stop them at the cheapest moment, with the right context and reviewer attention.
Python 2 vs Python 3: Differences and Why 2.x Is a Security Liability
The real differences between Python 2 and Python 3 — print, strings, division, integers — and why running anything on 2.x after its end of life is now a security decision, not a compatibility one.
Phased Policy Rollout: Warn To Block In Six Weeks
Hard-blocking a new policy on day one breaks builds and trust. A phased rollout from warn to block earns the right to enforce by proving the policy is correct first.
Kubernetes Admission Policy For Supply Chain
Admission control is the last cheap chance to refuse a non-compliant workload. The right policies turn supply chain attestations into deploy-time decisions.
Open Source Security Census 2025: Who Maintains the Code We All Depend On?
An analysis of the state of open-source security in 2025. Critical infrastructure runs on projects maintained by small, often unpaid teams. Here is what the data shows and why it matters.
AI Agent Frameworks: A Security Assessment of the New Autonomous Frontier
AI agents that can execute code, browse the web, and manage infrastructure are proliferating. The security implications of these autonomous frameworks demand scrutiny.
Break-Glass Workflow Design: Audited Bypass That Works
Every policy needs a bypass path or it will be routed around. The trick is making the bypass auditable, time-bound, and rare enough to remain meaningful.
CVE Vulnerability Database: How the CVE and NVD System Actually Works
What the CVE vulnerability database is, how MITRE and the NVD divide the work, what a CVE record contains, and how to use it without drowning in noise.
Runtime Drift Detection For Supply Chain Controls
An admitted workload is not a static one. Runtime drift detection turns the SBOM into a living contract and surfaces supply chain changes before they become incidents.
Griffin AI vs Sourcegraph Cody for Security Use
Cody's codebase-wide context is valuable for security review. Griffin AI adds reachability, taint, and policy grounding that Cody doesn't target.
One Policy Set, Four Enforcement Points
Different gates with different rules create gaps and developer friction. A unified policy engine evaluates one definition at PR, build, admission, and runtime.
Self-healing security runs on Safeguard.
Your first fix PR is minutes away.
No sales call required, even your agent can complete the purchase over MCP.
