A lot of people say with AI taking the jobs universal basic income will be needed. Think about how well social security and Medicare are run then ask yourself if you really believe UBI will land correctly.

Surely you can write a book with an alien inspired from her.

Attackers Worldwide are Zeroing In on React2Shell Vulnerability Bad actors that include nation-state groups to financially-motivated cybercriminals from across the globe are targeting the maximum-severity but easily exploitable React2Shell flaw, with threat…

“From an attacker perspective, #React2Shell is the kind of vulnerability that affords massive opportunity for crime, but that also has a narrow window for exploitation, partly because of public awareness leading to patching, and partly because of competition.”

Same desert as Hell’s Kitchen I think which makes sense!

Hell’s Kitchen?

About 75% done with a new pack for Sectemplates.com focusing on appsec 'Security Partnerships'. How many of you have leveraged such as program and how did it go for you?

I wonder how long it will take for AI interfaces into your brain to
1. read your ‘database’ of memories to help with memory recovery
2. Read your thoughts on current tasks and help you optimize it
3. Write access to your memory or ‘ram’ to aid with tasks

5-10 years?

I have a bunch of solid security domain names I'm thinking of finally selling. What would be the best way to sell them to security vendors?

Random rant: If security teams understood how to represent their work as dollar savings, how much more funding and support they'd receive?

I imagine people using botnets to train AI models in the near future.

Silicon Valley Is Raving About a Made-in-China AI Model DeepSeek is called “amazing and impressive” despite working with less-advanced chips.

Chinese AI models will be cheaper at the cost of censoring certain topics and people will eat it up... Ask it about Tank man or Xi and you'll see some obvious examples. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/chin...

Feels like the future for automating exploitation is training llms and using agents to perform these attacks. Agree? Disagree?

Bill requiring US agencies to share custom source code with each other becomes law President Joe Biden signed the bipartisan legislation into law Dec. 23.

This is a good idea, however I doubt that this code on average is getting proper security testing/updates. As a result there may be a surge in agencies adopting vulnerable code and increasing their attack surface fedscoop.com/agencies-mus...
