The private events group, cofounded by Peter Thiel, says a 'criminal' hacker is behind a breach that exposed members' personal details. WIRED found no evidence a break-in was needed to access the files.
Famous for helping build Apple's iPhones, Foxconn just suffered another cyberattack, highlighting the perils of warehousing some of the world's most valuable data.
And the redrawn rules of engagement for the AI era are bringing back into play certain security risks, like phishing and identity theft, that previously seemed mostly solved.
Any system has only a finite number of security vulnerabilities, so if we have new AI models that are good enough to comb over the code and fix the weak points very quickly, that should privilege the defense over the offense.
Cybersecurity is inherently adversarial; if attackers use a very powerful AI coding model to hack, defenders probably have to use a model that's equally good or better to defend — and vice versa. This can lead to an arms race where neither side can afford not to shell out big bucks for the latest and greatest model they can get their hands on.
