I’m just trying to shed some light on security research

[Dalya Manatova @Dalyapraz]

@fredheiding @BKCHarvard It was a great panel!

Very cool research! Prompt injection against AI-robots (e.g., drone), aka how to protect yourself from drone strikes.

Can’t wait to see some cool findings from netsci researchers

Someone made a Jeffrey Epstein connection database with 500+ different nodes.

The website allows you to search for official documents that connect affiliates and co-conspirators.

@JackRhysider In the book he was actually a contractor with a team. But hated Hammond for constant need to update or change databases and systems without giving much context to it, and demanding it urgently (ofc not paying extra for such changes)

Understanding the ByBit Hack for Crypto Noobs

Crypto exchanges utilize Hot, Warm, and Cold wallets to keep their funds safe. Hot wallets are wallets the exchange that send and receive transactions every second from the exchanges users. Cold wallets are used to store large amounts of crypto for a longer period of time. Cold wallets are used to top up the balance of the Hot wallets when they get to a determined level.

ByBit was doing a routine transfer of ETH from one of their cold wallets to a warm wallet. They utilize Multi-sig which is where multiple signatures need to be given in order for a transaction to be sent. This is a common security measure used by cold wallets.

ByBit works along side @safe to help manage their multi-sig cold wallets. Safe is a smart contract cold wallet that uses multi-sig. During their routine cold wallet transfers CEO Ben Zhou said in his live stream "I checked the destination address on the Safe UI to make sure it is our warm wallet address and everything checked out". The original transfer was for 30,000 ETH ($80M). He confirmed the transaction with his ledger and the transfer was made.

30 minutes after the first 30,000 ETH transfer CEO of ByBit Ben Zhou gets an emergency call that their cold wallet has been drained for around 400,000 ETH (1.06B).

This is all we know for now, a lot of blockchain analysis people are tracking the hackers wallets so I will update you guys once we know more.

Russia-linked hackers have been phishing Ukrainian military with Signal QR codes that look like group invites but instead add a linked device that eavesdrops on messages. Update Signal now to get its fix for a tactic that’s likely to spread beyond Ukraine. https://t.co/jDiaKpFnfs

1. Topological quantum computing is here! This thread explains how Microsoft’s Majorana 1 works and what it will mean for a fault tolerant future. I was invited to Azure Quantum Labs and got to hold this amazing new chip!

🤓 I took a quick look at the BlackBasta chat log leaks, there are some interesting findings.

Here is my full analysis process using Python and generative AI.

A small thread👇

[The Record From Recorded Future News @TheRecord_Media]

Researchers have found that hackers potentially linked to the Kremlin-backed threat actor APT28 have been spying on diplomatic entities in Central Asia to gather economic and political intelligence in the region.

@jennyzhangzt Another realization comes out of this is that information on the internet is connected based on the structure of this network, so information bounded by physical aspect of this infrastructure.

Amazing 🤦🏻‍♀️
