An AI agent’s risk depends on what it’s allowed to do, not just how independently it operates. Understanding that distinction is essential as agents gain access to sensitive data, tools, and business systems. @CarolineWMWong will explore the questions security teams should ask to evaluate agent authority and put meaningful controls in place. Join her on November 4 at Planet Cyber Sec’s free Virtual Summit for “Autonomy Isn’t Authority: A Better Way to Think About AI Agent Risk.”

Who controls your AI—and how will you keep it secure in 2027?
Join @tbendien, CEO of GT Edge AI, for a 60-minute closing workshop on deploying AI safely at enterprise scale.
Move beyond the hype and explore:
🔹 Rogue agents, sandbox escapes, and operational vulnerabilities
🔹 Practical governance: observability, role-based access control, audit trails, and financial controls
🔹 The role of Local AI and Small Language Models in protecting your organization’s proprietary knowledge and competitive advantage
🔹 How to prepare for the AI security challenges of 2027
Bring your questions. Leave with a clearer framework for governing AI, controlling access and costs, and protecting what makes your organization unique.

AI agents are being deployed faster than security teams can track them and are becoming the shadow workforce in our enterprises. They’re now in browsers, developer pipelines, SaaS platforms, and endpoints with access to massive amounts of data.
Teams are challenged to both gain visibility and continually monitor that the agents are performing as expected. In this virtual symposium, IANS Faculty Aaron Turner provides a structured methodology to enable teams to build an AI hunting capability.

F-35 stealth parts, including a classified radar-absorbing canopy, were rerouted from Australia to Hong Kong this summer. The Pentagon says some components are missing.

Politico reports the shipment was traveling from Australia to the US for repair when an intermediary handling logistics for Lockheed Martin diverted it across the Pacific to Hong Kong instead. Nobody has publicly explained why. Nobody knows who currently has the parts.

The canopy matters specifically. It's coated with a classified radar-absorbent material that makes the F-35 invisible to radar. That coating is available only to the US and its partners. A physical canopy lets an adversary study and potentially reverse-engineer the material, something stolen digital blueprints alone can't fully replicate.

Congress has been receiving briefings since June. The Pentagon confirmed the incident and said it's working to retrieve the parts and add safeguards. Lockheed said it follows all regulations but won't discuss specific shipments. The Chinese Embassy said it wasn't familiar with the matter.

For context: a 2023 GAO report found over 1 million F-35 spare parts had gone missing over five years, and the Pentagon couldn't audit the losses because Lockheed holds the data.

The most advanced stealth fighter ever built. A classified coating that makes it invisible. Last seen in Hong Kong.

The best conversations about AI and cybersecurity usually don’t happen on a stage. They happen when people working through the same challenges get together, trade perspectives, and talk openly about what’s actually changing.

If you’re in the West LA area, join Planet Cyber Sec and AITP for an outdoor AI Social Mixer on Tuesday, September 29 at 5:30 PM at Sorry Not Sorry. Bring your current questions, recent discoveries, and opinions on what’s next for AI, security, and IT.

We’re just a few days out from Planet Cyber Sec AI AppSec, and our Opening Keynote is set to kick things off in a big way.
@irawinkler will take the stage with: The Myth of Mythos
Anthropic’s Mythos announcement triggered widespread reaction across cybersecurity - overnment briefings, boardroom concern, and headlines pointing to an “AI apocalypse.”
But how much of that is real?
Ira breaks down what Mythos actually does, what it doesn’t, and why the response has been so intense - cutting through the noise to deliver practical insight for security leaders and practitioners.
Join us next Wednesday.
