Help defend against memory poisoning in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore with multi-layer write validation
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory helps AI agents maintain context across sessions through persistent short-term and long-term memory. Because memory content is automatically retrieved and injected into future conversations, the integrity of what gets written to memory directly shapes future agent behavior, which makes the write path a valuable control point to strengthen. AgentCore already provides […]
Simplify cross-partition access with AWS IAM outbound identity federation
You can now use tokens from AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) outbound federation to assume roles in other Amazon Web Services (AWS) partitions. When your workloads run across AWS partitions such as Commercial, China, GovCloud (US), and European Sovereign Cloud, a workload in one partition might need to access resources or communicate with AWS […]
Addressing protocol security gaps in multi-tenant Kubernetes
Protocols like Android Debug Bridge (ADB) and Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC), by default, use unencrypted channels for network communications and don’t support enterprise authentication mechanisms like JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). In a multi-tenant Kubernetes cluster—including Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)—pods can reach other tenants’ open ports by default unless you configure network policies to […]

Beyond DKIM key rotation: understanding email replay attacks
As the email administrator for your organization’s domain, you receive a Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) aggregate report showing email passing DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) verification as though it came from your domain, sent from IP addresses you don’t recognize to recipients you didn’t contact. To clear the issue, you rotate your DKIM […]

Introducing Route 53 Resolved IP Validation for AWS Network Firewall
Your workloads reach most destinations by domain name, but a firewall can only act on what it sees in the traffic. For HTTP and HTTPS, AWS Network Firewall domain rules match the name that the client puts in the request, and the client chooses that name. The connections for protocols such as SSH and SSH […]

Part 3 – Cybersecurity journeys: The work behind the work
The most important work I’ve done in cybersecurity would make for terrible television. There were no countdown clocks and no frantic typing, just a lot of careful reading, a lot of hard conversations, and the occasional quiet moment where everything finally clicked. That’s the part I want to show you this week, because the three […]
