Introducing Gesserit: Security in the Era of AI

SDF introduces Gesserit, an autonomous AI-powered security harness designed to find vulnerabilities in Stellar Core and other SDF products. Running 300 parallel AI agents and spending over 1 trillion tokens, Gesserit has discovered 40+ critical vulnerabilities and demonstrates 9x better detection than competing security tools.

Lumen Loop's take

As AI models became better at finding Stellar vulnerabilities, SDF realized attackers had the same tools. This sparked Gesserit: an autonomous AI harness that discovered 40+ critical vulnerabilities in Stellar Core. The breakthrough wasn't raw model power—it was orchestration. Gesserit breaks vulnerability discovery into stages, each with its own agentic session, preventing context overflow and duplication. A pseudo-vector database specialized for code deduplication lets agents learn from past failures without drowning in false positives. Running 300 parallel AI agents across 1+ trillion tokens, Gesserit finds vulnerabilities 9x faster than even the most expensive competing security tools. For any DeFi team not running similar AI-powered analysis, the message is stark: you will get hacked.
