Artificial intelligence may not steal our jobs just yet, but only because humans are currently cheaper to employ. Many of the human jobs that could be replaced with AI are not "economically beneficial" to automate - at least for now - say researchers at MIT.
As cyberthreats evolve, mobile network operators need offensive security to maintain resilience. Traditional security, such as firewalls and encryption, is not sufficient on its own. Offensive security is proactive; it mimics the strategies of real attackers to stay ahead of potential threats.
Generative AI, once a buzzword, is now the subject of a focused approach, according to attorney Edward Machin of Ropes & Gray LLP. Organizations are prioritizing specific issues around gen AI and establishing governance frameworks from the outset, Machin said.
Researchers uncovered a critical vulnerability in graphic processing units of popular devices that could allow attackers to access data from large language models. They dubbed the vulnerability LeftoverLocals and said it affects the GPU frameworks of Apple, AMD and Qualcomm devices.
Arati Prabhakar, director of the White House's Office of Science and Technology Policy, said during an event at the 2024 World Economic Forum that generative artificial intelligence has the potential to "dramatically accelerate and amplify the erosion of information integrity."
This week, the U.S. SEC assessed its X account hack, attackers stole $3.3M from Socket, Do Kwon got a new trial date, Alex Mashinsky sought to dismiss charges, Google Play Store removed crypto apps for India users, IRS clarified crypto asset reporting and South Korea mulled crypto mixer legislation.
Switzerland's federal government reports that multiple federal agencies' public-facing sites were temporarily disrupted by distributed denial-of-service attacks perpetrated by a self-proclaimed Russian hacktivist group "as a means of gaining media attention for their cause."
OpenAI said it is taking steps to prevent use of its models in online influence operations throughout the 2024 election season, amid growing concerns about election security and increasing fears that political deepfakes and AI-generated election misinformation could significantly disrupt democracy.
The British data regulator is set to analyze the privacy implications of processing scraped data used for training generative artificial intelligence algorithms. The Information Commissioner's Office is soliciting comments from AI developers, legal experts and other industry stakeholders.
Federal agencies are making significant headway in achieving a series of critical cybersecurity milestones included in a sweeping executive order on artificial intelligence the president signed in October 2023, according to White House Special Advisor for AI Ben Buchanan.
Digital money is energizing Southeast Asian organized crime as a method for money laundering and as a way of reaping new revenue, warn experts who say that tether plays a heavy role in the rapidly evolving state of law-breaking in Myanmar, Thailand and elsewhere.
Cryptocurrency phishing scams designed to send crypto owners to fake versions of legitimate sites, recently disseminated via hijacked high-profile social media accounts, highlight the ongoing use of drainer scam-as-a-service offerings, which researchers say last year led to $295 million in losses.
Extended Detection and Response (XDR) has evolved significantly over the past few years, becoming more critical than ever for organizations in need of enhanced capabilities. But so, too, have the accompanying managed services evolved. Port53 Technologies President Omar Zarabi explains.
