New research shows that a signed Git commit's hash is not the one-of-a-kind name that much of the software world assumes it to be. Given any signed commit, someone without the signing key can mint a second commit with the same files, author, and date, and a valid signature, GitHub still stamps "Veri...
When critical evidence is locked inside feature phones or ultra-compact devices, MSAB helps investigators go further — enabling advanced mobile extraction and analysis where other forensic tools may fall short.
For years, account takeover (ATO) followed a predictable script. Attackers bought stolen credentials in bulk, ran them through automated tools, and waited for matches. Credential stuffing was cheap, scalable, and for defenders, relatively well understood.
That era is ending. Not because attackers g...
Accenture appears to have suffered a data breach, the extent of which is currently unknown.

Scammers are hijacking government websites to upload ads for “leaked” OnlyFans content. Thousands of copyright complaints from adult creators are helping people avoid malicious links.
Burst water mains. Evacuated hospitals. In a closed-door simulation, insurers played out their response to a mass disruption by China’s Volt Typhoon hackers—and found a nightmare scenario.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) gave federal agencies until Friday to patch an actively exploited vulnerability in the Langflow visual framework for building AI agents. [...]

A Chinese threat actor tracked as UAT-7810 is actively refining its bespoke malware to expand its Operational Relay Box (ORB) network by breaking into internet-facing networking devices.
According to findings from Cisco Talos, UAT-7810 is an advanced persistent threat (APT) actor that's responsible...
The government's new AI clearinghouse risks becoming a committee that discovers more problems than it solves — unless it's designed around patching, not just scanning.
