⚠️ 80% of Fortune 500 companies run active AI agents. Only 47% have AI security controls in place. 🕵♂️ The core problem: you can't reliably force a real LLM to "go rogue" in a test suite. So how do you prove your RBAC, OAuth, and identity enforcement actually works? 💡 Tigera engineer Isaac Hawley developed the Stub Model pattern: a deterministic stand-in for the real LLM that returns hardcoded tool calls, including deliberately malicious ones, so your agent harness executes its real security pipeline against predictable inputs. ✔️ The result? Thousands of governance tests running in milliseconds. Zero API cost. Auditable proof your guardrails hold. ➡️ Read the full implementation guide (with Python and Go examples) on the Tigera blog: https://lnkd.in/epNf4rVF #StubLLM #AIsecurity #AIgovernance Alister Baroi

It requires a fundamental shift in how you handle connectivity across fragmented environments. Tigera CEO Ratan Tipirneni breaks down how a consistent networking architecture allows teams to manage both containers and VMs on a shared platform without the burden of vendor lock-in. See why portability is the key to a modern, hybrid-ready organization. 👉 Watch the Full conversation here: https://lnkd.in/eECJwMGU #HybridCloud #Modernization #Infrastructure #Tigera #EnterpriseIT

🎸 𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: Lucas Secchin Sampaio! 🌟 Lucas is Tigera's March Rock Star for his incredible Owner’s Mindset leading our L7 observability work with eBPF. He is an excellent collaborator who successfully manages differing opinions from multiple stakeholders to find the best path forward. From defaulting the dataplane to eBPF mode to resolving complex issues in Calico Open Source, Lucas does Whatever It Takes to help the team win. We are lucky to have his expertise and drive at Tigera! Congrats Lucas Secchin Sampaio! #RockOfTheMonth #EmployeeSpotlight #Tigera #CloudNative

AI Agents are here, and the rate of adoption inside enterprises has been unprecedented. These agents are autonomous, distributed, and increasingly embedded in critical business processes — running everywhere across organizations, often beyond the reach of traditional security controls. These AI agents are making decisions and taking actions. The question is whether you can authenticate them and know what they are authorized to do based on context. And can you enforce controls dynamically based on context and explain what they just did? We have built a new solution to address these challenges, and we are now deploying it in some of the largest financial institutions in the world. If you would like early access to this solution, please reach out to me directly via a DM. #ai #agents

Today, it often means more coordination, more hidden state, and more ways for things to break. #eBPF offers a different model where traffic handling lives directly in the data plane, making behavior more consistent and easier to reason about. Less about adding components. More about removing boundaries. 👉 Take a closer look at what this shift looks like in practice: https://lnkd.in/gguFtzvC #Kubernetes #eBPF #CloudNative #PlatformEngineering #DevOps #Networking

Booth #400 is officially closed after several days of Silent Disco sessions, hands-on demos, the AI governance workshop, a fantastic Calico happy hour celebration and deep technical conversations. Huge shoutout to the team who kept everything running. From early morning coffees to final pack-out. The energy never dropped. If we didn’t get a chance to connect (or finish the conversation), we’d love to pick it back up. Our inbox is open. Reza R. Aadhil A.

Day 2 at KubeCon Europe highlighted a major shift. Aadhil A. Majeed's session on #VMs in #Kubernetes showed the growing need for a unified networking and security plane across all workload types. This momentum aligns with recent news from Broadcom.
