Adobe has undoubtedly created a product that lives up to the claim of giving the professional film industry a big efficiency boost with AI. What we're seeing here is a glimpse into the future, insofar as AI-generated scenes are adapted, extended or expanded according to individual needs. I estimate that by 2026 almost every movie will contain a large proportion of AI-generated content. Because even in Hollywood, cost efficiency is what counts in the end. And that is unbeatable with AI

Vendors who scrape us,

Send us an email and let's talk. For a monthly fee we'll let you get access to an s3 instance that has our malware ingestion feeds

You can use AWS API to pull it daily, or hourly, or whatever. Less burden for us, less burden for you, and we get paid

If Lawrence Bishnoi can easily run his criminal operations from jail then what exactly is he doing in there? Campus recruitment?

September 17th a person named Prakash filed an official complaint against our donation transaction system stating we have failed to give them the password for the malware folder.

It wasn't a meme, it was completely legitimate.

The password is 'infected'.

Analysts noticed that CCTV cameras in Taiwan and South Korea were digitally talking to crucial parts of the Indian power grid – for no apparent reason. On closer investigation, the strange conversation was the deliberately indirect route by which Chinese spies were interacting with malware they had previously buried deep inside the Indian power grid

At @RecordedFuture, we’ve been reporting on the alleged “Dark Covenant” between the cybercriminal underground and Russian intelligence for over three years.

Using Evil Corp to guide our analysis — today’s news is a vindication.

so glad to know this is what the GPUs are being used for

Can vouch for this. TMH is the closest hospital to my home, at ~3kms. Dad had a case of delirium late at night, rushed there just to deal with a bunch of imbeciles. They were poking around clueless until I mentioned that he has had hypoglycaemia in the past, and then they start checking glucose levels. This was after ~10 mins at the hospital. Glucose when checked was around ~40, at which point they administered dextrose injections. Rechecked after ~10 mins, and when we found that he was stable, rushed to BMH in the city.

[Dhanya Rajendran @dhanyarajendran]

We spoke to the hospital. Ashwin’s allegation is right. The RMO Abu Luke was not a medical doctor and hadn’t passed exam in years. Read @HarithaMaanav’s story

Summary of the Linux RCE 9.9 CVE

The vulnerability write up and disclosure is confusing. Initially the write up was scheduled for release in October. However, the write up and proof-of-concept was leaked onto Breached (???) which then resulted in the researcher / author to do an official write up (maybe?).

- Self described as 9.9, not officially declared 9.9
- Attacks CUPS

We haven't looked at it because we don't do exploit stuff and also Linux is for nerds

[Athul Krishnan @athul_krishnan]

What fresh hell is this?

[Howard Lince III @HowardL3]

A 9.9 CVE has been announced for Linux 👀 Remote code execution. No details yet. Heartbleed was 7.5, for reference. This is one of the worst in history. All GNU/Linux systems impacted.

🚨 To those who are surprised by this incident, I'd like to offer a sobering reality check. Try a simple Google search for "index of: pan card" and you'll be shocked to discover a trove of sensitive personal documents readily available on open FTP servers belonging to supposedly 'secure' websites of NBFCs, Universities and even Government offices.

The truth is, security and data protection are a farce in India, where lax and unenforceable privacy laws leave citizens personal information woefully exposed!
