Jaroona CTO presents IntentGuard at Black Hat Asia 2026
Security begins with intended purpose
With IntentGuard, we address a new security gap in modern DevOps environments: AI-generated configurations must not only be syntactically correct, but must also match the project’s actual security purpose.
From rule checks to intent validation
IntentGuard shifts the assessment standard from rule-based control to intent-based security validation. What matters is not only whether a configuration works, but whether it still secures what it is meant to secure.
Semantic Security Validation for AI-Generated Cloud Configurations
Generative AI is increasingly creating security-critical cloud and infrastructure configurations—such as Kubernetes manifests, Terraform configurations, AWS CloudFormation templates, or Helm charts. Traditional scanners primarily check syntax, known misconfigurations, and policy violations. Whether a configuration actually matches a project’s intended purpose, security architecture, and operational boundaries is often insufficiently assessed.
IntentGuard goes deeper:
The framework validates whether a generated or modified configuration still aligns with the intended project purpose and security architecture. To do this, IntentGuard reconstructs, among other things:
Roles and responsibilities of individual services
Permitted communication paths
RBAC and privilege boundaries
Expected resource and access patterns
This creates a semantic validation layer above traditional rule and syntax checks. IntentGuard detects deviations that appear technically plausible and operationally functional, but no longer fit the project’s intended security logic. This makes semantic misalignments visible that can create security-critical risks such as privilege escalation, unauthorized cloud access, RBAC drift, information leaks, or infrastructural backdoors.
The joint presentation by Anna Bacher, CTO of Jaroona, and Chris Wysopal, an internationally recognized cybersecurity thought leader, underscores Jaroona’s professional leadership role in the international AI security discourse. It also shows that Jaroona is actively shaping key future questions at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, and cybersecurity, and contributing to the debate at the highest international level.

Jaroona introduces AI-powered, energy-weighted PV analysis for customers
Our new AI solution complements existing monitoring systems or replaces them when needed with a standalone, data-driven analysis approach for higher yield, better prioritization, and predictive maintenance.
Revolutionizing PV Analysis
Jaroona presents an innovative, AI-powered solution for energy-weighted analysis of photovoltaic systems. Through the intelligent evaluation of operating, SCADA, alarm, maintenance, and inspection data, we create a better foundation for performance optimization, economic prioritization, and predictive maintenance.
While many existing monitoring systems operate reactively and rule-based, Jaroona identifies deeper patterns and gradual inefficiencies. The solution can be used as an AI extension to existing systems or as a standalone monitoring and analysis solution, depending on what is technically or economically most sensible.
Comprehensive Problem Detection
We focus on the early detection of critical issues such as MPP deviations, degradation, partial shading, and other operational inefficiencies that often lead to efficiency losses of 5 to 10 percent. Unlike conventional systems, the Jaroona approach evaluates their actual relevance for energy yield, system availability, and maintenance priority.
Flexible Integration & Scalability
The solution is technically flexible and can be connected to existing operating software or work directly with plant raw data, especially SCADA data. Our commercial model is designed for scalability, with pricing typically based on installed capacity and transparently growing with the size of individual plants or distributed portfolios.
Many operators are not yet using the full potential of their data for forward-looking decisions. We bring AI into PV analysis in a way that creates concrete action priorities for yield, efficiency, and maintenance — either as an extension of existing systems or as a standalone solution.

Can machine keep your code safe by Anna Bacher
Topic Abstract: Attackers weaponize AI. Since the early 1990s, every major machine learning open-source release has been closely followed by new attacker toolkits that add obfuscation and anti-decoding to avoid detection, polymorphism to evade antivirus tools, and deliver extremely volatile and dynamic payloads to avoid detection by network intrusion systems. Some attacker toolkits can detect a user‘s environment and deliver specific and targeted exploits. We live in an era of weaponized AI. I
