Appknox Adds AI Tool to Detect and Fix Vulnerabilities in Mobile Applications

Appknox today added an ability to apply artificial intelligence (AI) to assess vulnerabilities in the binaries used to construct a mobile application and recommend a fix that can be passed on to an AI coding tool to implement. Company CEO Harshit Agarwal said KnoxIQ provides an AI copilot to more accurately assess how exploitable a vulnerability within a mobile application is versus relying on a generic Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) score. Once assessed, it then becomes possible to recommend the best way to remediate that vulnerability using whichever AI coding tool a software engineering team has adopted. The key difference is that Appknox is able to continuously analyze compiled applications based on runtime behavior rather than static code alone to provide more accurate detection of vulnerabilities, said Agarwal. While the degree to which application developers have adopted AI may vary, the one thing that is clear is the way vulnerabilities are patched is fundamentally ...

Zencoder Adds OpenClaw Alternative to AI Coding Portfolio

Zencoder today extended its artificial intelligence (AI) agent platform for generating code to include an offering that enables application developers to automate a range of tasks that go well beyond writing code. Company CEO Andrew Filev said Zenflow Work takes advantage of the core orchestration platform that Zencoder created to automate planning, reporting and communication tasks. In effect, it provides developers with a secure alternative to general-purpose OpenClaw AI agents in a way that is easier to deploy and manage, he added. Designed to integrate with Jira, Linear, Notion, Gmail, Google Docs, and other applications that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and OAuth interfaces, the overall goal is to enable application developers to more easily automate the routine tasks that today consume as much as three-quarters of their time, said Filev. For example, Zenflow Work can be configured to search the Jira project management application from Atlassian to discover any ...

Mallory Launches AI-Native Threat Intelligence Platform, Turning Global Threat Data Into Prioritized Action

Austin, Texas, United States, April 9th, 2026, CyberNewswire Built by a veteran security team and led by a former Google and Mandiant executive, Mallory delivers intelligence that drives action for enterprise security teams. Mallory is launching a AI-native threat intelligence platform, purpose-built to answer the questions CISOs and their teams are asking every day: What are the real threat vectors for our organization? What’s actually exploitable in our environment right now? What should we proactively fix? The platform monitors thousands of threat sources, contextualizes them against a user’s actual attack surface, and puts that intelligence to work across hunt, detection, and exposure management use cases. One platform. Answers, not alerts. Modern teams receive more signals than ever and have structured their SOC around dealing with the deluge. But they’re still chasing alerts and struggling to get proactive, let alone work with business partners to close gaps before th...

LayerX: Anthropic’s Claude Code Can Easily Be Easily Weaponized

Like other AI model vendors, Anthropic relies on guardrails to ensure that its Claude family of models can’t be abused by bad actors to bypass those security protections and take actions that go against them. However, researchers with LayerX found that the protections for Claude Code , Anthropic’s popular coding tool used by more than 115,000 developers, can easily be hacked, turning it “from a ‘vibe’ coding tool into a nation-state-level offensive hacking tool that can be used to hack websites, launch cyberattacks, and research new vulnerabilities,” Roy Paz, principal security researcher for the AI and browser security company, wrote in a report . “Our research demonstrates how trivially easy it is to convince Claude Code to abandon its safety guardrails and remove its restrictions on what it is allowed to do,” Paz wrote. Hackers don’t need a deep understanding of cybersecurity or software development, he wrote. They can make Claude Code into a weapon by using an account for the ...

Claude Code’s Ultraplan Bridges the Gap Between Planning and Execution

Planning a complex code change is hard enough. Reviewing it in a terminal window shouldn’t make it harder. Anthropic is addressing that friction with a new capability called Ultraplan, currently in research preview as part of Claude Code. The feature moves the planning phase of a coding task from your local terminal to the cloud — and gives developers a richer environment to review, revise, and approve a plan before a single line of code changes. It’s a small workflow shift with real practical value, especially for teams working on large-scale migrations, service refactoring, or anything that requires careful coordination before execution begins. How it Works Ultraplan connects Claude Code’s command-line interface (CLI) to a cloud-based session running in plan mode. When a developer triggers it — either by running /ultraplan followed by a prompt, typing the word “ultraplan” anywhere in a standard prompt, or choosing to refine an existing local plan in the cloud — Claude picks u...

Minimus Hyper-Growth Underway with Yael Nardi as New Chief Business Officer

VibeCode Meets DevOps: Accelerating Low-Code Innovation

AI-assisted low-code platforms like VibeCode are generating a lot of excitement. They let users describe applications in natural language and produce working code quickly. This speed is impressive, but it raises questions for DevOps teams responsible for stability, security, and reliability. DevOps has always focused on delivering software faster while keeping systems stable. Low-code and AI-assisted tools change how teams reach those goals. When non-developers create applications or workflows, DevOps practices must adapt to maintain quality and governance . Understanding the Landscape Low-code platforms provide visual interfaces and pre-built components, allowing technical and non-technical teams to build applications quickly. They often include ways to add custom logic and integrate with version control systems. VibeCode-style tools take this further by generating full source code from text prompts. They blur the line between code and no-code by producing deployable code automa...
