Antares: A Security Analyst That Never Leaves Your Laptop: Security Loop Series, Part 1

Cisco, Thursday, October 22nd, 2026

Cisco starts a series on Antares, a local model that finds where an advisory's vulnerability class lives in your code.

Cisco describes the 'triage tax' engineers pay when an advisory, such as a CWE-22 path traversal, names a dependency but not where the bug sits in a large repository.

Finding that location can take hours of grep before anyone can judge exposure.

This first post in the Security Loop series introduces Antares, a security analyst model that runs locally on a laptop.

Cisco positions Antares as a way to answer where a known vulnerability class actually lives in code.
