Anthropic and OpenAI's publicly available models are explicitly guard-railed so that they refuse offensive tasks. And their cyber-focussed models are gated for enterprises. This leaves SMEs and mid market open to major vulnerabilities. AI can be used as both an adversarial and defensive tool in the world of cyber. A worst case outcome is if only the adversaries have access. Meanwhile, most existing AI cyber tools are just wrappers. The problem is that they still have all the guardrails on from the foundation model where they will inherit its refusals. For this project we've post-trained a…

Hello HN! Deploying the next-generation of security telemetry technologies to production is hard, so I’m building Impulse, a fully automated XDR platform that leverages tools like Osquery and eBPF to provide real-time threat detection & integrity monitoring for servers and workstations. It detects malware from behavioural patterns rather than signatures and enables deeper visibility than legacy tools. Impulse agents can be deployed on any device or VM running Linux such as cloud VMs in VPC networks, VPS servers or personal workstations and IoTs. In terms architecture, it is organised around…

Coding agents craft arbitrary code so securing them is more complicated than red-teaming. We post trained a cyber-security small llm, changed how it reasons and supplemented our controls using program analysis techniques such as inline reference monitoring to outperform GPT5.5-xhigh on hard benchmarks like LinuxArena and SleightBench. Free product available at harden.run and full benchmarks in the blog post.
