Agentic AI: What Is It, How Does It Work, and Why Did We Limit It?
Key Takeaways Agentic AI is purpose-built for specific tasks, not general interaction. It doesn’t respond to prompts like a chatbot—it operates automatically based on system-level inputs. By limiting the scope of agentic AI, we enhance its precision and reliability. This approach removes variability and user-driven input, making the model easier to train, test, and trust […]

Find command injection in source code
When learning how to find, exploit, or prevent different types of security vulnerabilities, you’ll want to understand the vulnerability’s root causes and what happens to an application when it’s exploited. Today, we’ll talk about remote code execution (RCE), it’s mechanisms, and how you can spot it in source code. Remote code execution and command injection […]
Common Vulnerabilities in Java and How to...
Securing applications is not the easiest thing to do. An application has many components: server-side logic, client-side logic, data storage, data transportation, API, and more. With all these components to secure, building a secure application can seem really daunting. Thankfully, most real-life vulnerabilities share the same root causes. And by studying these common vulnerability types […]
Find Reflected XSS Candidates in Source Code
On March 21, the Biden administration directed US companies to "harden your cyber defenses immediately." With these new federal guidelines for application security, the White House urged software developers to deploy "modern tools that can detect known and potential vulnerabilities" in their custom and open-source software (OSS). Learn more about how ShiftLeft can help.

Static Analysis of (the Invisible) C# Sources
Does your static analysis tool see the C# source underlying your C# source? I am a compiler engineer at ShiftLeft, the designer and (main) implementor of the programming language layer of our static analysis tool for C# and Python. In this article, I discuss a bit about the static analysis of C# programs. When you […]

Add Security, Not Headaches, to the SDLC
How to integrate security into the SDLC successfully The world has an insecure software problem, which is why 84% of cyber attacks focus on the application layer. Two major factors have contributed to the writing of insecure code — cumbersome security analysis tools and a strong drive to reach the market quickly. For things to […]
