Microsoft just gave you an extra year of protection: the free Windows 10 Extended Security Updates program for personal devices now runs through October 12, 2027. That's a welcome extension of security updates for your Windows 10 device, giving you more time to consider your next move.
Researchers have made a startling discovery about the vulnerability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to prompt injection attacks, tracing it back to a simple yet flawed design element - role tags that were meant to be a formatting trick but have become the model's de facto security architecture. This role confusion is the surprising reason why LLMs are susceptible to these types of attacks.
Confidence in automated AI vulnerability scanning has taken a nosedive, with a recent survey revealing a dramatic drop from 29% to 9% in organizations relying solely on AI for testing. Instead, nearly half are turning to a hybrid approach, combining AI with human expertise for more reliable results.
A security flaw in macOS has been discovered that allows users to quietly disable crucial enterprise security tools, including EDR and MDM, without needing administrator privileges. This gap in endpoint security models could leave businesses vulnerable to attacks.
Microsoft's latest Windows 11 update is here, bringing with it a game-changing feature: Point-in-time restore, which lets you snap your PC back to a previous state in just minutes. With this update, you can easily turn back the clock and get your computer up and running smoothly again.
A 29-year-old memory leak in the popular Squid proxy server, dubbed Squidbleed, could silently expose sensitive data, including login credentials and session tokens, to hackers in certain setups. This shocking vulnerability, rooted in a 1997 code commit, highlights the importance of regularly updating and securing even the most trusted systems.
Full-platform Rapid7 rollouts - InsightVM, InsightIDR, event sources, agents, tuning - by a Registered Partner who has done it at state-agency scale, including OT/SCADA.
Talk deployment
The clock is ticking: by December 31, 2030, federal agencies must upgrade their cryptography to protect high-value assets from the looming threat of quantum computers, with digital signatures following suit by December 31, 2031. This executive order accelerates the migration to post-quantum cryptography, compressing the government's previous timeline by four to five years.
OpenAI's new GPT-5.5-Cyber model has achieved a record 85.6% score on CyberGym's vulnerability test, outperforming its standard counterpart and paving the way for faster patching with cutting-edge tooling and partnerships. This major breakthrough enables verified defenders to accelerate vulnerability fixes with enhanced security capabilities.
The time it takes for hackers to exploit a newly discovered vulnerability has dramatically shrunk from 53 days to just 8 hours, thanks to AI-driven automation that accelerates the process of finding and weaponizing weaknesses. This alarming trend makes it increasingly challenging for organizations to keep pace with patching and remediation efforts.
The White House is taking a major step to protect America's sensitive data and digital economy by mandating a rapid migration to quantum-safe encryption, with a deadline of 2030 for key establishment and 2031 for digital signatures. This move aims to safeguard critical infrastructure, jobs, and growth by future-proofing the nation's cybersecurity.
The US government is taking a giant leap towards securing its digital future with two new executive orders, accelerating the migration to post-quantum encryption and boosting support for the domestic quantum computing industry.
