Closed-Source Guardrails Hinder Forensics, HF Switches to Open Source
latticecut · x · 2026-07-20
This recounts Hugging Face's encounter with an AI-driven attack: during log analysis, they found that commercial closed-source models would block real attack commands, exploit payloads, and C2 traces due to safety guardrails, hindering forensics.
Ultimately, they switched to using the open-weights model GLM 5.2 deployed on their own infrastructure for analysis. This allowed them to complete the investigation without sensitive attack data ever leaving their internal environment.
