MCP Security for AI Agents
Start here for the supply-chain and runtime trust risks that appear when agents depend on MCP servers.
Writing archive
Technical essays, security thinking, and long-form notes spanning 2018 to 2026.
This archive mixes practical application security, AI systems thinking, and philosophy of technology. The current center of gravity is AI agent security: how autonomous systems see, reason, remember, and act through tools.
