Now You Hear Me: Audio Narrative Attacks against Large Audio-Language Models

Large audio-language models increasingly operate on raw speech inputs, enabling more seamless integration across domains such as voice assistants, education, and clinical triage. This transition, however, introduces a distinct class of vulnerabilities that remain largely uncharacterized. We exami...

On the Impossibility of Simulation Security for Quantum Functional Encryption

Functional encryption is a powerful cryptographic primitive that enables fine-grained access to encrypted data and underlies numerous applications. Although the ideal security notion for FE simulation security has been shown to be impossible in the classical setting, those impossibility results...

A new era of agents, a new era of posture

The rise of AI Agents marks one of the most exciting shifts in technology today. Unlike traditional applications or cloud resources, these agents are not passive components- they reason, make decisions, invoke tools, and interact with other agents and systems on behalf of users. This autonomy...

Cryptographic Semantic Binding Flaw

ALTCHA libraries are vulnerable to a cryptographic semantic binding flaw. The vulnerability is due to ambiguous HMAC binding between challenge parameters and the nonce, which allows an attacker to splice or reinterpret a valid proof-of-work submission for example by modifying the expiration value...

Cybersecurity in the Public Sector: Challenges, Strategies and Best Practices

Public sector cybersecurity faces outdated systems, budget gaps, and rising attacks. Learn key challenges, defense strategies, and proven best practices...

What is Identity Dark Matter?

The Invisible Half of the Identity Universe Identity used to live in one place - an LDAP directory, an HR system, a single IAM portal. Not anymore. Today, identity is fragmented across SaaS, on-prem, IaaS, PaaS, home-grown, and shadow applications. Each of these environments carries its own...

Grok apologizes for creating image of young girls in “sexualized attire”

Another AI system designed to be powerful and engaging ends up illustrating how guardrails routinely fail when development speed and feature races outrun safety controls. In a post on X, AI chatbot Grok confirmed that it generated an image of young girls in “sexualized attire.” The potential...

The Case for Dynamic AI-SaaS Security as Copilots Scale

Within the past year, artificial intelligence copilots and agents have quietly permeated the SaaS applications businesses use every day. Tools like Zoom, Slack, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and ServiceNow now come with built-in AI assistants or agent-like features. Virtually every major SaaS vendor...

Cyber Risk Management: Defenders Tell It Like It Is

Based on more than 3,000 responses from cybersecurity professionals in nearly 90 countries, our Trend Micro Defenders Survey Report 2025 shines a bright light on the current state of cyber risk management. From the impact of cloud and AI on IT environments to top technical and human challenges,...

Comparing AI Agents to Cybersecurity Professionals in Real-World Penetration Testing

We present the first comprehensive evaluation of AI agents against human cybersecurity professionals in a live enterprise environment. We evaluate ten cybersecurity professionals alongside six existing AI agents and ARTEMIS, our new agent scaffold, on a large university network consisting of 8,00...

The Developer's Newest Bug: Speed

The Developer's Newest Bug: Speed By Tola Olawale · December 2, 2025 Artificial intelligence AI has unequivocally entered its “main character” era, moving from a niche tool to a universal creator. This massive shift has given rise to "vibe coding ": the practice of using AI to generate functional...

Behind the Curtain: How Shared Hosting Providers Respond to Vulnerability Notifications

Large-scale vulnerability notifications VNs can help hosting provider organizations HPOs identify and remediate security vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit in data breaches or phishing campaigns. Previous VN studies have primarily focused on factors under the control of reporters, such as...

An In-Depth Systematic Analysis of the Security, Usability, and Automation Capabilities of Password Update Processes on Top-Ranked Websites

Password updates are a critical account security measure and an essential part of the password lifecycle. Service providers and common security recommendations advise users to update their passwords in response to incidents or as a critical cyber hygiene measure. However, password update processe...

Automated Hardware Trojan Insertion in Industrial-Scale Designs

Industrial Systems-on-Chips SoCs often comprise hundreds of thousands to millions of nets and millions to tens of millions of connectivity edges, making empirical evaluation of hardware-Trojan HT detectors on realistic designs both necessary and difficult. Public benchmarks remain significantly...

A Survey of Heterogeneous Graph Neural Networks for Cybersecurity Anomaly Detection

Anomaly detection is a critical task in cybersecurity, where identifying insider threats, access violations, and coordinated attacks is essential for ensuring system resilience. Graph-based approaches have become increasingly important for modeling entity interactions, yet most rely on homogeneou...

API Attack Awareness: Business Logic Abuse — Exploiting the Rules of the Game

As Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues, we wanted to dive even deeper into the attack methods affecting APIs. We’ve already reviewed Broken Object Level Authentication BOLA, injection attacks, and authentication flaws; this week, we’re exploring business logic abuse BLA. Unlike technical flaw...

Is Protective DNS Blocking the Wild West?

We perform a passive measurement study investigating how a Protective DNS service might perform in a Research & Education Network serving hundreds of member institutions. Utilizing freely-available DNS blocklists consisting of domain names deemed to be threats, we test hundreds of millions of...
