Deep dives on API security, AI safety, ephemeral cryptography, and the architecture decisions behind HardenLabs.
As AI agents gain the ability to call external tools via MCP, the attack surface expands dramatically. Tool-poisoning, unsigned tool definitions, and prompt injection create new security challenges.
Most security products sit in your request path and see everything. We built HardenAPI to be out-of-path by design — here's why that matters and how it works.
API keys, client secrets, hardcoded tokens — static credentials don't expire, can't be scoped, and get leaked constantly. Here's why ephemeral key rotation is the future of service-to-service authentication.
The founding story of HardenLabs — why I started a company, what I kept seeing go wrong, and what I'm trying to build differently.
