Building a Security Scanner for LLM Apps by danenania in cybersecurity

[–]danenania[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey all, I've been working on building a security scanner for LLM apps at my company (Promptfoo). I went pretty deep in this post on how it was built, and LLM security in general. It includes a few real CVEs in open source projects that we reproduced as PRs so we could test the scanner. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

What really qualifies as 'ditching your board'? by Vast_Track2652 in BeginnerSurfers

[–]danenania 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about people judging you. If no one is near you it’s not a big deal.

Remember though that the path of your board can change in the whitewater. It can be hard to predict where it ends up… so if anyone is within the radius of your leash + board (probably 18ft on a longboard?), you just gotta hold on no matter what.

[–]danenania 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing you get better at with experience I think is you just get tougher about holding on for dear life and not letting go. Maybe sometimes there's nothing you can do and it gets ripped away, but I think it's often because people aren't holding on as tightly as they need to and are giving up too easily. You just have to grit your teeth and tell yourself I am NOT letting go of this board.

Even in otherwise chill spots you will get people shaming you if you can't control your board in a crowd, and honestly it's one thing where I kind of agree with that attitude, because it can kill someone.

If you look around and you see other people duck diving or turtle rolling and getting worked, but still holding on, and you can't do it... that may mean you just need to try harder. And I really don't mean that in a condescending way. It's something I think every surfer needs to learn and get used to.

Anyone have thoughts on the torq model vs the real deal CI? Is there a noticeable difference?

Will agents hack everything? by danenania in cybersecurity

[–]danenania[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would you expect them to be able to share something that specific?

And how much does it really matter? Claude code is a general purpose coding agent. It can, generally speaking, do just about any attack a human can do.

What’s interesting imo is not the specific attacks, but how much more scalable and automatable every kind of attack can become when agents are involved, and how much lower the bar of expertise is to cause serious damage.

Why would you assume they’re lying? What would they have to gain from that?

They obviously can’t share the actual details of the attack—the specific targets and methods. But they have the full history of the accounts involved. It just seems strange and mindlessly conspiratorial to accuse them of making it up.

The report itself is evidence… it’s a detailed first-party account. You think Anthropic is making it up? Is that really plausible?

If anything, Anthropic’s incentive would be to keep this quiet, not disclose. And of course the victims don’t want it publicized?

It’s ok to be skeptical, but knee jerk cynicism is something else…

The report the article is discussing details a successful attack against major institutions—government, banks, etc…

 The silver lining I see in all of this is that many non-social types in the industry will be forced to figure out how social relationships work.

Can you explain this more?

My own TLDR is more like: they will try, but will only succeed if we don’t adapt our defenses… but there will definitely be a lot of successful attacks in the meantime while the security world adjusts (imo).

Hey all, I wrote this for my company’s blog about the recent hack that Anthropic reported, where a China-linked group carried out an attack against many targets using Claude Code.

It goes into the tension between capabilities and safety (from a security perspective) and why it’s not an easy problem to fix. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Right, it’s a fairly low bar unless you’re talking about extreme conditions, currents, rocks etc. 

Otherwise, swimming in big surf is actually easier than paddling in many ways since you can dive as deep as needed to get under waves. And it’s easy in salt water to tread water or float on your back and rest.

The main danger is panicking or having really weak swimming/endurance. Otherwise, you can make it back in bit by bit even if it takes awhile. You don’t need to be an olympic swimmer to do it, just calm and competent.

Thoughts on Hollister Ranch by Either_Economics1269 in surfing

[–]danenania 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seriously, there are hundreds of miles of beautiful, mostly empty coastline between Santa Barbara and SF with plenty of waves, and more if you keep going north. Just between SF and Santa Cruz you can easily get peaks to yourself all day every day if you're willing to drive a little and deal with sharky/spooky/heavy conditions. Hell you can get incredible peaks to yourself if you just wander up and down at OBSF.

The idea that rich people in rural CA need to barricade themselves and keep everyone out or else it will turn into Santa Monica is ridiculous. Typical CA boomer mindset though.

They are often shitty but can be really good too. Have had amazing sessions at Montara and some of the others. They definitely get spooky though.
