LLM flaw leaves AI models dangerously exposed to attacks
Red-teaming, which uses human testers and AI models like GPT-Red to find vulnerabilities, is fundamentally limited because it only gives models a list of prohibited actions that can never be exhaustive, as illustrated by a Simpsons analogy. Researchers discovered "chain-of-thought forgery," a nov...

AI Watermarking Changes How LLMs Handle Harmful Prompts
Major tech firms are adopting AI watermarking technologies like SynthID-Text to comply with EU regulations, using secret keys to subtly alter word selection and establish content provenance. Recent studies reveal that these watermarks can inadvertently weaken safety guardrails, causing models to ...

This adversarial pattern hides you from surveillance cameras
A security researcher has developed an algorithm that generates adversarial patterns,subtle visual distortions,to conceal individuals, faces, and vehicles from camera-based surveillance systems by exploiting weaknesses in machine learning detection models. Unlike earlier methods, the new algorith...

Audit AI Actions, Not Its Thoughts
AI presents a dual challenge for CISOs, offering defensive capabilities like fraud detection while adversaries use it for malicious purposes, requiring organizations to defend both with and against it. Ensuring AI tools are auditable, explainable, and resilient is difficult due to their complex d...

Google: Attackers Made 100,000+ Attempts to Clone Gemini AI
Google reported over 100,000 attempts to extract its Gemini AI's capabilities, attributing them to actors aiming to train cheaper, competing models through a practice it calls "model extraction." The technique, known as "distillation," allows entities to bypass the high costs of original AI train...

Google's AI Flood: Why Quality Is Slipping
Google Gemini is adding a user toggle to remove visible watermarks from AI-generated images, video, and music, raising concerns about the spread of synthetic media. While invisible protections like C2PA metadata and SynthID remain, visible watermarks and metadata are easily stripped, and SynthID ...

9 popular AI tools can be used by hackers to build massive botnets
Prompt injection has become the dominant AI security threat, as large language models cannot reliably distinguish legitimate commands from malicious instructions hidden in third-party content. Traditional push-based and pull-based prompt injection attacks have limited scalability, requiring indiv...
