STAYING AHEAD OF ADVERSARIAL AI THROUGH AGENTIC SOURCE CODE REVIEW

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Mandiant's Agentic Vulnerability Discovery Harness (AVDH) is a Gemini-powered multi-agent pipeline built on Google's Agent Development Kit. The tool conducts deep source code reviews by autonomously chaining threat modeling, entry-point discovery, and hypothesis generation before escalating confirmed findings for human validation. Mandiant positions the harness as a point-in-time, deep-dive complement to continuous scanning tools like CodeMender, establishing a robust two-layered defensive strategy.
