Cynative: Open-source deep research agent

Cynative is an open-source security research agent designed to safely use large language models for cloud security assessments. The tool mitigates the risk of an AI agent accidentally modifying cloud resources or exposing secrets by defaulting to read-only operations and enforcing those restrictions on every API call.

Why it matters: Security teams evaluating automated cloud security scanning need safe tools that can audit infrastructure without risk of unintended modification or credential exposure.

Cynative: Open-source deep research agent

Cynative is an open-source security research agent designed to mitigate risks when using large language models to probe live cloud environments. It prevents accidental destructive actions by defaulting to read-only behavior and validating that restriction on every function call. The tool aims to enable deep research without exposing cloud accounts to unintended modifications or data leaks.

Why it matters: Security teams using autonomous agents for cloud assessments should evaluate Cynative to avoid credential misuse or accidental data exposure in live environments.
