Cybersecurity researchers are warning that some AI chatbots are recommending fake or dangerous websites to users instead of legitimate ones. These incorrect suggestions can lead people to phishing pages, scam websites, or malicious downloads designed to steal personal information. The problem happens when AI systems generate website recommendations that sound believable but are actually incorrect […]
Artificial intelligence company Anthropic says its advanced AI system, called Claude Mythos, has discovered more than 10,000 serious security flaws in widely used software programs around the world. The findings were made through a cybersecurity project called Project Glasswing, which was created to help protect important digital systems before hackers can exploit weaknesses. The AI […]
Cybersecurity experts are warning that hackers are now using artificial intelligence to launch smarter and more powerful cyberattacks. One growing threat is known as a DDoS attack, where criminals overload a website or online service with massive amounts of fake internet traffic until it crashes or becomes unusable. In the past, these attacks already caused […]
Cybersecurity researchers recently found a harmful software package on npm, a popular website developers use to download coding tools. The package pretended to be a normal tool, but it was actually designed to secretly steal files from people using Anthropic’s Claude AI platform. The fake package looked harmless and claimed to help organize and sync […]
Instructure, the company behind the popular online learning platform Canvas, has reportedly reached an agreement with a hacking group after a major cyberattack exposed sensitive data from thousands of schools and universities around the world. The cybercriminal group, known as “ShinyHunters,” claimed responsibility for stealing approximately 3.65 terabytes of data connected to schools, teachers, staff, […]
Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a fake AI project online that pretended to be an official OpenAI tool but was actually designed to spread malware. The malicious project appeared on Hugging Face, a popular platform where developers share artificial intelligence models and software tools. The fake project copied the name and description of a legitimate OpenAI […]
Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a series of sophisticated cyberattacks targeting an Azerbaijani oil and gas company over several months. Experts believe the attacks were carried out by a Chinese-linked hacking group known as “FamousSparrow,” which repeatedly returned to the company’s network even after earlier intrusions were discovered and blocked. According to researchers, the hackers first […]
Cybersecurity researchers have discovered what may be the first real-world cyberattack created with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) to bypass two-factor authentication (2FA). Experts believe hackers used AI tools to identify and build a “zero-day” exploit, which is a hidden software weakness that developers were not yet aware of. The attack targeted a widely […]
Security researchers have discovered a cyberattack campaign where hackers impersonate IT helpdesk staff to trick employees into giving them access to their computers. The attackers begin by flooding a victim’s email inbox with large amounts of spam. This creates confusion and pressure, making the target more likely to believe a follow up message. Shortly after, […]
Security investigators have uncovered a years long phishing campaign that successfully deceived employees at NASA and other U.S. organizations into sharing sensitive technology. The operation involved a Chinese national who posed as a trusted researcher and contacted targets through carefully crafted messages. By impersonating colleagues and collaborators, the attacker convinced victims they were participating in […]
