The authors propose a layered reference architecture combining adversarially hardened models, blockchain-anchored data provenance, AI-driven anomaly detection, and smart-contract-governed multi-agent remediation. Their core pitch is that blockchain's immutability and decentralized consensus can verify where data and model behavior actually came from, something none of the four underlying systems can guarantee on their own.\n\nSecurity tooling increasingly hands decisions to autonomous agents - patching code, flagging anomalies, retraining models - with no central authority checking their work. If those agents get fooled or their training data gets poisoned, verifying what happened after the fact becomes a forensic afterthought rather than a built-in guarantee. Anchoring that trail on a blockchain is a structural fix, not a bolt-on dashboard.\n\nIt's a reference architecture, not a shipped product, and the authors admit scalability, privacy-transparency trade-offs, and agent governance are all still unsolved - the usual caveat separating a promising diagram from something you'd actually deploy.","[\"blockchain\",\"ai agents\",\"cybersecurity\",\"llm security\"]","2026-09-25T04:00:00.000Z","2026-09-26T00:18:23.988Z","2026-09-26T00:18:29.389Z","published",null,[],"security",[26,27,28,29],"blockchain","ai agents","cybersecurity","llm security",[31],{"name":32,"url":33},"arXiv cs.AI","https:\u002F\u002Farxiv.org\u002Fabs\u002F2609.28843",0,{"sections":36},[37,42,46,51,56,61,66,71,76,81,86,91,96,101],{"name":38,"slug":39,"count":40,"latest_published_at":41},"AI","ai",4534,"2026-09-25T17:16:30.000Z",{"name":43,"slug":24,"count":44,"latest_published_at":45},"Security",741,"2026-09-25T15:52:13.000Z",{"name":47,"slug":48,"count":49,"latest_published_at":50},"Policy","policy",390,"2026-09-25T16:24:59.000Z",{"name":52,"slug":53,"count":54,"latest_published_at":55},"Deals","deals",256,"2026-09-25T17:00:53.000Z",{"name":57,"slug":58,"count":59,"latest_published_at":60},"Hardware","hardware",185,"2026-09-25T15:00:22.000Z",{"name":62,"slug":63,"count":64,"latest_published_at":65},"Science","science",140,"2026-09-25T11:55:23.000Z",{"name":67,"slug":68,"count":69,"latest_published_at":70},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",132,"2026-09-25T15:30:00.000Z",{"name":72,"slug":73,"count":74,"latest_published_at":75},"Software","software",88,"2026-09-24T23:06:55.000Z",{"name":77,"slug":78,"count":79,"latest_published_at":80},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",82,"2026-09-25T09:59:40.000Z",{"name":82,"slug":83,"count":84,"latest_published_at":85},"Startups","startups",76,"2026-09-25T18:33:59.000Z",{"name":87,"slug":88,"count":89,"latest_published_at":90},"Gaming","gaming",48,"2026-09-25T18:35:21.000Z",{"name":92,"slug":93,"count":94,"latest_published_at":95},"General","general",46,"2026-09-25T02:12:57.000Z",{"name":97,"slug":98,"count":99,"latest_published_at":100},"Reviews","reviews",30,"2026-09-24T20:07:31.000Z",{"name":102,"slug":103,"count":104,"latest_published_at":105},"How-To","how-to",6,"2026-06-16T09:00:00.000Z"]
