AI agent credentials live in the same box as untrusted code. Two new architectures show where the blast radius actually stops
Four separate RSAC 2026 keynotes arrived at the same conclusion without coordinating. Microsoft's Vasu Jakkal told attendees that zero trust must extend to AI. Cisco's Jeetu Patel called for a shift from access control to action control, saying in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat that agents behave "more like teenagers, supremely intelligent, but with no fear of consequence." CrowdStrike's George Kurtz identified AI governance as the biggest gap in enterprise technology. Splunk's John Morgan called for an agentic trust and governance model. Four companies. Four stages. One problem. Matt Caulfield, VP of Product for Identity and Duo at Cisco, put it bluntly in an exclusive VentureBeat interview at RSAC. "While the concept of zero trust is good, we need to take it a step further," Caulfield said. "It's not just about authenticating once and then letting the agent run wild. It's about continuously verifying and scrutinizing every single action the agent's trying to take, because at

Intuit compressed months of tax code implementation into hours — and built a workflow any regulated-industry team can adapt
When the One Big Beautiful Bill arrived as a 900-page unstructured document — with no standardized schema, no published IRS forms, and a hard shipping deadline — Intuit's TurboTax team had a question: could AI compress a months-long implementation into days without sacrificing accuracy? What they built to do it is less a tax story than a template, a workflow combining commercial AI tools, a proprietary domain-specific language and a custom unit test framework that any domain-constrained development team can learn from. Joy Shaw, director of tax at Intuit, has spent more than 30 years at the company and lived through both the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the OBBB. "There was a lot of noise in the law itself and we were able to pull out the tax implications, narrow it down to the individual tax provisions, narrow it down to our customers," Shaw told VentureBeat. "That kind of distillation was really fast using the tools, and then enabled us to start coding even before we got forms and instr

Show HN: I built a $3/yr AI workflow to stop doomscrolling Twitter for tech news
I’ve always had a simple but annoying problem: I want to stay updated on the latest open-source projects and tech trends, but I really don’t want to rely on scrolling Twitter to get them anymore. The signal-to-noise ratio is getting worse. To find a few genuinely valuable projects, most of my time is wasted on meaningless noise, outrage bait, and ads. I tried various aggregators and subscription feeds, but I still ended up having to click through and filter things manually. The core issue wasn't solved. So I built a small automated workflow called TechDistill. The goal is simple: Stop browsing the feeds entirely, and just get a curated result every day. Now, this pipeline generates four Markdown files daily: One overall Overview, to quickly catch up on what's worth paying attention to today. Three Source-specific reports (GitHub Trending, Hugging Face, Product Hunt) with more complete details. My daily routine looks like this: I scan the overview first to quickly judge if there's anyth
