It is interesting to see forward proxies making a comeback in agent infrastructure github.com/anthropic-ex... I used claude to describe how this works, is quite interesting pulling this project apart. The structure highlights where security concerns with agents are. #ai #agents

Been working on my own evals tool, for learning, as well as to have some control over how things work. LLMs really are a "unique" system to work with. Still new so lots to improve github.com/wolfeidau/go... #golang #evals #mcp

In light of recent GitHub Actions incidents (Ultralytics, tj-actions...), I wrote up a practical guide to hardening for @wizsecurity.bsky.social

Covers permissions, secrets, 3rd-party Actions, ++

Use it to avoid learning these lessons the hard way:

What we are seeing is stricter enforcement.

So expect fewer software engineers (who can an often log on and do some remote while being a tourist!) to visit the US

In the past, this was not enforced: now it clearly is. And neither ESTA nor other tourist visas allow working remote, yes

Been really enjoying using MCP servers, it is interesting how they extend the capabilities of LLMs. That said, like anything you need to be careful and only MCP servers from trusted sources and ensure you review/vet code and docs they produce. 🤖

Overall I think they are positive. #MCP #AI #llms

We can only hope. #aws #ipv6
Is 2025 going to be the year of broad IPv6 adoption? For AWS, it might just be. In the past months many services have gained IPv6 support, which paves the way for IPv6-only VPC configurations.
AWS is on its way to full IPv6 support

AWS just released RCP examples to prevent OIDC misconfigurations from many third-party vendors. 😍 github.com/aws-samples/...

Can't help but thank @anthropic.com Claude some times, using it to rubber duck an idea and it provides some options, writes some tests and benchmarks so I can tweak things further without writing whole lot of boilerplate. #golang #llms

This deepseek r1 one thing really has blown up, props to the team behind the model. Publishing this paper, and releasing the model with open weights is really cool. Well worth a read over the GitHub repo github.com/deepseek-ai/... #deepseek #llms

Spent a couple of hours hacking on open telemetry for AWS lambda functions, what a fun journey, so much out of date information.

I am surprised I got it working, I had to go back to an old revision as things take a while to propagate. 😅🔍🪓 #AWS #OpenTelemetry #golang github.com/wolfeidau/la...

I definitely need to play with Zig now to decide how I feel about it.
I understand Mitchell Hashimoto's verdict of "it's funner than Rust" somewhat now, and I suspect I'll agree (not a high bar!).
I wonder how big those binaries will end up.

When ever I start looking at performance of the code I am working on, I always find a few bugs. Adding a quick benchmark validates the codes behavior under load, and measures it's performance. As a bonus it also leaves a baseline for future changes. 😅🏎️🔍 #golang

I am surprised just how useful @anthropic.com claude is when building out a GRPC / connectrpc.com service. It is a pretty steep learning curve, even for those with lots of backend experience, however the LLM helps you to navigate the new terminology and get things working quickly. 😅 #golang #grpc

It has been interesting how clueless @sourcegraph.com Cody is when editing cedar policies, and schema files. I need to figure out how to disable it for this file type as it is really annoying. Mostly of the time it is super helpful lol. #ai #coding

Currently catching up on the cedar policy language, which after the initial hype seems to have stalled a bit. That said with the help of some community resources, GitHub searches and the playground I managed to get it working. www.cedarpolicy.com/en/playground is really handy. #AWS #cedar #golang

Lately, every BSides seems to have a talk on reframing security teams as a “Department of Yes”

We don’t hear nearly as much about the value of a well-considered, strategically deployed “No”

I've pulled together guidance on giving a better, more constructive No:

How to Say “No” Well
Security’s pivot from ‘Department of No’ to ‘Department of Yes’ misses the real lesson - how to say ‘No’ the right way.
