Terry Gerton In recent weeks, articles about Anthropic’s latest AI model, Mythos, have been making headlines—along with growing concerns about the dangers it might bring. When a tech firm restricts access to its own AI system due to fears it could be misused, that naturally raises eyebrows. But what does that kind of reaction suggest about the way AI tools like Mythos are reshaping the cybersecurity landscape? Justin Miller The way I look at cybersecurity is through three lenses: people, processes, and technology. Right now, we’re reaching a point where—despite having highly skilled individuals working with advanced technology—we still need…

OpenAI is set to open its inaugural Applied AI Lab beyond the United States in Singapore. This initiative is part of a new collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Development and Information.Revealed at the ATx Summit, the project, named OpenAI for Singapore, is supported by funding exceeding S$300 million.Over the coming years, the facility will generate more than 200 technical roles positioned in Singapore. OpenAI highlighted that Singapore will also serve as a global hub for its on-site engineers who will assist organizations in deploying AI. The lab’s activities will align with Singapore’s AI Mission goals, including public service, finance,…

It might seem like your social media feed has an uncanny understanding of your interests. As you scroll through platforms like Instagram or TikTok, a fascinating pattern emerges: watch one video, and your entire stream quickly fills with nearly identical content. Half a decade ago, this felt almost magical. Today, we casually talk about the algorithm as though it’s some enigmatic force working behind the scenes in a Silicon Valley server room. The reality is far less cinematic, yet far more intriguing. The algorithm isn’t inherently malicious; it doesn’t deliberately try to radicalize anyone. It’s simply a program computing cosine…

This week, institutional adoption continued to reshape the cryptocurrency market, even as global tensions reminded investors that the digital asset space remains highly sensitive to broader macroeconomic conditions.Digital asset funds experienced over $1 billion in outflows as traders cut back on risk exposure amid dwindling hopes for a lasting ceasefire between the United States and Iran. Meanwhile, Tether strengthened its control over Twenty One Capital. Bernstein noted that Bitcoin miners are carving out a strategic role in building artificial intelligence infrastructure, and Polymarket joined forces with Nasdaq to launch prediction markets tied to private firms.This week’s Crypto Biz illustrates just…

1 Introduction This article provides a technical analysis of how many Windows kernel mode drivers can be interacted with from user mode without the hardware they were developed for. This work was motivated by driver-oriented vulnerability research and the need to evaluate the exploitability of individual findings, which frequently affect code whose reachability is hardware-gated. The methodology presented here should help anyone determine whether a particular Windows kernel mode driver vulnerability remains reachable – and thus potentially exploitable – even in the absence of the hardware the driver was developed for. The reader is expected to have basic Windows driver…

WASHINGTON (AP) — Tulsi Gabbard stepped down as President Donald Trump’s director of national intelligence on Friday, explaining that she needed to leave her post to care for her husband, who is fighting cancer. She is the fourth Cabinet member to resign during Trump’s second term, and all four have been women. In her resignation letter, shared on social media, Gabbard informed Trump that she would be leaving her role overseeing the coordination of 18 intelligence agencies on June 30. She shared that her husband had recently been diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer and “faces major challenges…

Have you ever thought about how to pick the right number of bins for a histogram? Have you questioned whether there’s a deeper justification behind your choices beyond just making it look visually appealing? Histograms are one of the most essential tools for visualizing data, but choosing the right resolution — that is, the number and width of bins — matters a great deal, especially if you plan to use the histogram for further analysis. Often, histograms are calculated to represent how densely packed your data is. In this article, we explore the mathematical foundations of density estimation, focusing specifically…

Automatic detection of sleep stagesDatasets: The IS-RC dataset includes one polysomnography (PSG) recording from each of 70 women, collected as part of a research study focused on sleep-disordered breathing in women aged 40 to 57 years18. All 70 recordings were scored by ten trained experts using the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) guidelines8, with annotations from six of these experts made publicly available. We combined these annotations into a single consensus using the method described by Stephansen et al.19. One recording was excluded because the filenames of its annotations did not match the corresponding EEG data.The BD (Bipolar EEG…

The Clarity Act’s biggest outcome may be the creation of an entirely new market for “yield-as-a-service,” according to Joe Vollono, chief commercial officer at stablecoin infrastructure firm STBL.At the center of the debate is Section 404 of the proposed legislation, which would prohibit Digital Asset Service Providers (DASPs) and their affiliates from offering yield solely as a function of holding a digital asset.The provision could fundamentally reshape how crypto users earn returns, pushing the market away from passive “hold-to-earn” products and toward more active, compliant yield-generation strategies.“What this effectively does is shift the industry from a hold-to-earn market to a…

Ravie LakshmananMay 23, 2026Supply Chain Attack / Malware Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a fresh software supply chain attack campaign that has targeted multiple PHP packages belonging to Laravel-Lang to deliver a comprehensive credential-stealing framework. The affected packages include – laravel-lang/lang laravel-lang/http-statuses laravel-lang/attributes laravel-lang/actions “The timing and pattern of the newly published tags point to a broader compromise of the Laravel Lang organization’s release process, rather than a single malicious package version,” Socket said. “The tags were published in rapid succession on May 22 and May 23, 2026, with many versions appearing only seconds apart.” More than 700 versions associated with…
