AI Hacking Theater and the Crypto-Agility Wake-Up Call
OpenAI and Anthropic spent two weeks one-upping each other's AI hacking disclosures. Buried beneath the competitive theater are three developments CISOs can no longer ignore, and the defense for all three is the same.

The Last Unregulated Forecast: Why We Still Pay the Oracle
Croesus paid Delphi before crossing the Halys. Boards pay for value-at-stake slides before funding quantum programs. The need for a number is ancient and human. The exemption from audit is new, and it costs us.

Why the OpenAI Breach Matters for Quantum Strategy
Everyone is covering the OpenAI/Hugging Face breach as an AI scare. The real lesson is in the forensics: US models blocked defenders, a Chinese model did the job, and the same flawed control logic governs quantum.
