The future of IT is AI

AI isn’t just another tool in the belt; it’s a fundamental shift of how we do IT. From the 80% productivity gains seen by Solo Security Leads to the hard reality of AI-driven phishing and automated exploitation, the goalposts have moved. In this post, I explore why AI in security is no longer an innovation, it’s parity, and how projects like LARGflow and NCM are proving that the future belongs to the "Supervisory Engineer."

The Weekend I Gave SOME Keys to OpenClaw

But even restricted to a standard user account, this framework is unprecedented. It didn't just automate my tasks; when it realized it lacked a skill, it wrote its own code to acquire it. Here is my full weekend report on installing, configuring, and trying to control the most capable tool of 2026 without handing over the keys to the kingdom.

How AI Has Rewritten the Rules of DevSecOps Automation

For years, DevSecOps engineers lived by the strict ROI rules of automation, famously satirized in XKCD comics: the time saved must outweigh the high cost of writing and maintaining scripts. But that math has fundamentally changed. With AI lowering the barrier to coding and speeding up debugging, the old excuses for manual toil are evaporating. The new reality is that if you aren't fully automating you’re working hard, not smart.

Next NCM expansion - The Road to Governance Automated

The road to "Governance Automated" starts with a rock-solid foundation. This quarter, we expanded the LARGncm ecosystem with automated hardening for Aruba and Cisco FTD, executed a bleeding-edge upgrade to Django 6. Read how these foundational steps are clearing the path for full NIST 800-53 automation across network and server infrastructure.
