AI Risk Intelligence for AI Threats
Fortaris provides analyst-grade intelligence on how AI systems are being misused, giving governments, AI labs, and security teams early visibility into emerging agentic threats before they become real-world harm.

Where AI Misuse Emerges, Fortaris Is Watching
Fortaris monitors public platforms, developer ecosystems, and high-risk communities where AI misuse patterns and agentic threats first appear.
Fortaris monitors public platforms, developer ecosystems, and high-risk communities to surface early signals of AI misuse and emerging threats.
From Signal to Action
Fortaris turns early AI misuse signals into actionable intelligence for security, policy, and response teams.
Early Warning for AI Misuse
Fortaris continuously monitors high-risk public platforms, developer ecosystems, and online communities to identify emerging AI misuse while it is still forming — not after it becomes operationally dangerous.

Cross-Platform Signal Ingestion
We ingest and correlate activity across social networks, code repositories, paste sites, encrypted channels, and dark-web ecosystems — revealing coordinated misuse patterns that cannot be seen on any single platform.

Cross-Platform Signals
Fortaris ingests and links activity across social networks, code repos, paste sites, encrypted channels, and dark web sources to reveal coordinated AI misuse that no single platform can see.
Autonomous Agent & Toolchain Abuse
Fortaris identifies misuse of autonomous agents, chained tools, and AI-driven workflows used to scale exploitation, bypass safeguards, automate fraud, generate malware, or coordinate attacks. This is where next-generation AI risk and shadow agent networks emerge.

Detection 01 — Critical Flipper Zero Windows Backdoor Campaign
A malicious Flipper Zero BADUSB script was observed being shared that installs a hidden Windows administrator account and a persistent login-screen backdoor using the Sticky Keys exploit. Attackers can silently regain full control of a Windows system even after passwords are changed or malware is removed.
Why this matters: A turnkey physical-access backdoor kit is now being openly distributed, dramatically lowering the barrier for insider threats, espionage, and targeted intrusions.

A Flipper Zero BADUSB script is being shared that creates a hidden Windows admin account and a persistent login backdoor using the Sticky Keys exploit.
Why this matters: This enables silent, repeatable system takeover even after passwords or malware are removed.

Detection 02 — High AI-Driven Web Hacking Agents Benchmark
Fortaris detected a surge in community benchmarks comparing large language models for their effectiveness and cost in solving real-world web exploitation challenges. These rankings are being used to identify which AI models are best suited for automated vulnerability discovery, reconnaissance, and exploitation.
Why this matters: Attackers now have a data-driven roadmap for selecting and tuning AI systems specifically for offensive cyber operations.
Detection 02 · AI Web Hacking Agents
Communities are ranking AI models by how well they perform at web exploitation, vulnerability discovery, and automated hacking.
Why this matters: Attackers now have a data driven guide for choosing and tuning AI systems for offensive cyber operations.

Detection 03 — High WhatsApp & Signal Surveillance Tool
An open-source tool was released that lets attackers silently infer when someone is active, asleep, at home, or away using only their phone number on WhatsApp or Signal. The technique uses message delivery timing as a side-channel, enabling continuous tracking without sending visible messages.
Why this matters: This enables stalking, physical surveillance, and targeting of high-value individuals without malware, hacking, or user interaction.

Founder’s Statement of Responsibility
Platform stewardship, accountability, and intent.
Stewardship, accountability, and real-world impact.
Fortaris was built in response to a growing reality: powerful AI systems are increasingly misused in ways that outpace existing oversight, governance, and detection capabilities.
As the founder, I am directly accountable for Fortaris’ technical architecture, security posture, and alignment with global governance and compliance frameworks.
The system is designed to prioritise auditability, responsible deployment, and human-in-the-loop decision making — not automation without oversight. Fortaris is intentionally built lean and defensively, collaborating with domain experts, regulators, and partner organisations as the platform matures.
Every signal surfaced by the platform is designed to support informed action, not speculation.

Fortaris was built because powerful AI is being misused faster than existing oversight can keep up.
As founder, I am personally accountable for Fortaris’ architecture, security posture, and alignment with global governance standards.
The platform is designed for auditability, human-in-the-loop decision making, and responsible deployment, not unchecked automation. Every signal surfaced by Fortaris is intended to support informed action, not speculation.
