A cyber attacker compromised Indonesia's national data centre, disrupting immigration checks at airports, and asked for an $8 million ransom, the country's communications minister told Reuters on Monday.
The attack disrupted several government services, most notably at airports last week, with long lines forming at immigration desks. Automated passport machines were now functioning, the communications ministry said.
Personal information, including partial payment details, may have been obtained by bad actors during an automated credential-stuffing attack on Levi’s online store.
The maker of the famous Levi’s denim jeans reported that over 72,000 accounts were affected during a “security incident” that was detected on July 13th.
Android, Google’s most popular mobile operating system, powers billions of smartphones and tablets globally. Known for its open-source nature and flexibility, Android offers users a wide array of features, customization options, and access to a vast ecosystem of applications through the Google Play Store and other sources.
However, with its widespread adoption and open environment comes the risk of malicious activity. Android malware, a malicious software designed to target Android devices, poses a significant threat to users’ privacy, security, and data integrity. These malicious programs come in various forms, including viruses, Trojans, ransomware, spyware, and adware, and they can infiltrate devices through multiple vectors, such as app downloads, malicious websites, phishing attacks, and even system vulnerabilities.
At Project Zero, we constantly seek to expand the scope and effectiveness of our vulnerability research. Though much of our work still relies on traditional methods like manual source code audits and reverse engineering, we're always looking for new approaches.
As the code comprehension and general reasoning ability of Large Language Models (LLMs) has improved, we have been exploring how these models can reproduce the systematic approach of a human security researcher when identifying and demonstrating security vulnerabilities. We hope that in the future, this can close some of the blind spots of current automated vulnerability discovery approaches, and enable automated detection of "unfuzzable" vulnerabilities.
Cybercriminals behind attacks disrupting at least five London hospitals leaked nearly 400 gigabytes of data, which reportedly included blood test information.
Qilin ransomware started leaking data stolen from England National Health Service (NHS) partner Synnovis labs. According to reports from the BBC, the data includes patient names, dates of birth, NHS numbers, descriptions of blood tests, and other information.
Olga Loiek, a University of Pennsylvania student was looking for an audience on the internet – just not like this.
Shortly after launching a YouTube channel in November last year, Loiek, a 21-year-old from Ukraine, found her image had been taken and spun through artificial intelligence to create alter egos on Chinese social media platforms.
Her digital doppelgangers - like "Natasha" - claimed to be Russian women fluent in Chinese who wanted to thank China for its support of Russia and make a little money on the side selling products such as Russian candies.
One of Russia's top security officials called on Thursday for Russians to mobilise to inflict "maximum harm" on Western societies and infrastructure as payback for increasingly tough sanctions being imposed on Moscow by the U.S. and its allies.
