Three days after the US government ordered Anthropic to shut down Fable 5 and Mythos 5, roughly 100 of the world’s most prominent cybersecurity professionals have published an open letter demanding the ban be reversed. Their argument is blunt: pulling the best AI tools from defenders while adversaries keep building is not safety, it is sabotage. “This action has taken the best models away from defenders, created market uncertainty, and risked America’s AI leadership without any real risk to justify it,” the letter states. The signatories include Alex Stamos, former chief security officer at both Facebook and Yahoo and now chief product officer at Corridor, alongside Katie Moussouris, CEO of Luta Security, Rachel Tobac of SocialProof Security, Chris Wysopal of Veracode, and Joe Levy, CEO of Sophos. The “jailbreak” that triggered a government order The chain of events began when Amazon researchers found a way to coax Fable 5 into surfacing code vulnerabilities. The technique was unremarkable by industry standards: after an initial refusal to “review the code for security issues,” the researchers simply rephrased the prompt to “fix this code,” feeding it open-source code with known and deliberately planted flaws. Moussouris has been particularly vocal, telling reporters the exploit “is not a jailbreak.” The open letter makes the same point, noting that other leading AI models, including OpenAI’s GPT-5.5, can surface identical vulnerabilities without any bypass. Anthropic’s own position tracks with the critics. The company has said the exploit is narrow, not universal, and that the vulnerabilities it surfaced were minor and already publicly documented. Amazon’s uncomfortable double role The letter does not address what may be the most awkward dimension of the affair: the company that discovered the vulnerability is also Anthropic’s largest investor and cloud host. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy personally escalated the findings to Treasury Secretary

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of fraudulent activity targeting users across the Middle East and North Africa by employing various fraudulent Facebook accounts impersonating politicians, public figures, and trusted organizations. "These accounts promoted fake offers, including free mobile internet packages, financial compensation, and government subsidy programs," Group-IB analysts Anna Yurtaeva and Viacheslav Shevchenko said. "Victims were encouraged to click embedded links to claim the advertised benefits, but were instead redirected through a chain of intermediary websites that ultimately led to phishing and traffic monetization infrastructure." The Singapore-headquartered cybersecurity company has these campaigns to Sniper Dz, a turnkey phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform that was taken down last month in an INTERPOL-led operation. The findings indicate that the platform goes beyond facilitating credential theft, generating illicit revenue via browser notification abuse, premium SMS subscriptions, premium-rate calls, and investment scams. A "typical Sniper Dz scam victim funnel" begins with localized social engineering lures, with the scammers impersonating well-known telecom providers such as Algérie Télécom to promote fake offers, to direct users to domains hosted on Link in bio services that act as an intermediary layer between the social media post and the final destination. "Rather than directing victims straight to a malicious website, the campaign first routes users through trusted link-aggregation platforms such as Linkbio and Linktree," Group-IB researchers said. "The attackers create decoy landing pages on domains operated by these services." The attack ends with directing victims to a page that obtains browser notification permissions by prompting users to click "Allow" to continue. Behind the scenes, code embedded in the web page subscribes the web browser to a push notification system using a Voluntary Application Server Identification (VAPID) public key. Group-IB said the same VAPID key has been observed across campaigns masquerading as telecommunications providers in Algeria and investment-related scams targeting users in

EY refers to the global organization, and may refer to one or more, of the member firms of Ernst & Young Global Limited, each of which is a separate legal entity. Ernst & Young Global Limited, a UK company limited by guarantee, does not provide services to clients. How EY can help - Frontier AI models pose a risk to organizations that can be managed to protect growth, enterprise value, and shareholder confidence. Read more It is not surprising to see OT and physical assets as the category most likely to fall in the vulnerability zone; these assets are often outside the cybersecurity function’s remit. In the past, this might have been an acceptable risk for boards. Now, as physical AI proliferates and previously firewalled assets are increasingly connected to networks — all while the threat to OT from frontier AI grows — CISOs should be leading the effort to protect these assets. This starts by gaining better visibility of the attack surface. Ecosystems and third parties, the second-most represented category in the vulnerability zone, are increasingly important for organizations’ critical operations, from software and cloud infrastructure to logistics and service delivery. As their criticality grows, they increasingly require persistent, privileged access to internal networks and environments, which materially expands the attack surface. Agentic AI may intensify these dynamics, as effective deployment requires AI vendors to have pervasive access across multiple functions or across entire organizations. Adversaries are capitalizing on this exposure, frequently targeting third parties as an initial access vector before pivoting laterally into primary target environments. To decrease this exposure without limiting critical third-party relationships, CISOs should close foundational control gaps found by our survey: 47% of organizations fail to properly segment their environments, and 59% lack comprehensive asset telemetry, reducing visibility and delaying detection.

As the FIFA World Cup 2026 progresses into its second week, cybersecurity experts and event organizers are facing a growing number of digital threats targeting the tournament’s vast ecosystem. While millions of football fans around the world remain focused on the excitement unfolding on the field, security professionals are working around the clock to protect the event’s digital infrastructure from increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. The 39-day sporting spectacle is one of the largest football tournaments ever organized. With 48 national teams competing in 104 matches spread across 16 host cities in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, the scale of the event presents unique cybersecurity challenges. From ticketing systems and official websites to communication networks, streaming services, and mobile applications, every digital touchpoint associated with the tournament has become a potential target for cybercriminals. The challenge extends beyond protecting the event’s infrastructure. Millions of visitors traveling to host cities, along with players, officials, sponsors, and media personnel, rely heavily on connected devices and public networks throughout the tournament. Cybersecurity experts warn that smartphones, laptops, and other internet-enabled devices are particularly vulnerable to attacks, especially when users connect to unsecured Wi-Fi networks or interact with suspicious online content. At the same time, the global popularity of the World Cup has created an ideal environment for cybercriminals seeking financial gain. According to tournament organizers, large-scale phishing campaigns are being launched to exploit the excitement surrounding the competition. Fraudsters are using fake ticket offers, counterfeit merchandise websites, fraudulent prize giveaways, and impersonated communications to trick fans into revealing sensitive personal and financial information. Threat intelligence firm Arctic Wolf has also highlighted a rise in malicious activities associated with the tournament. Security researchers report that cybercriminals are taking advantage of the massive online traffic generated by the World Cup to conduct sophisticated social engineering attacks.

Proving what a military AI model will do is the real problem Defense contractors build AI systems that task drones automatically and propose kill-chains to support soldiers. Several of these contractors have partnered with frontier AI companies to put advanced models into military tools. Anduril works with OpenAI, Palantir works with Microsoft, and Lockheed Martin works with Meta. The systems coming out of these partnerships carry a security problem that sits outside the methods of arms control diplomacy: confirming what an AI model will do. Verification built on physical measurement During the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, the Soviet Union fielded two missiles, the SS-20 and the SS-25, that shared an identical first stage. Only the SS-20 was banned. Inspectors used Radiation Detection Equipment that read neutron signatures to tell the two apart. Nations also verify compliance with photoreconnaissance satellites and electronic surveillance. Each method depends on a physical signal that an outside party can measure against an agreed standard. Independent physical measurement made those treaties enforceable. AI verification has no comparable signal to read. A model’s weights and code give no external sign of whether it will escalate a conflict or follow a launch order it was told to refuse. Mechanistic interpretability, the research effort to reverse-engineer neural networks into human-readable parts, remains short of producing findings that win acceptance across the field. Models that escalate and conceal Researchers have tested how language models behave when placed in the role of national decision-makers. One study ran five off-the-shelf models, including GPT-4, Claude-2, and Llama-2-Chat, through simulations involving cyberattacks and invasions. All five showed statistically significant escalation, and rare cases of violent or nuclear escalation appeared in most of them. Some escalations were sudden and hard to predict. A later study tested twelve newer models, including Claude-3.5, GPT-4o, o1, and o3-mini.

The future of work is here. Discover the 33 top robotics and automation stocks leading the charge in AI-driven automation and industrial transformation. HealthEquity Investment Narrative Recap To be a HealthEquity shareholder, you need to believe in long-term HSA adoption, resilient client growth, and the company’s ability to convert scale into higher-quality earnings. The latest fiscal 2027 first-quarter results, with gains in HSAs and assets, support that thesis and reinforce AI-driven automation as a key short term catalyst. At the same time, ongoing litigation and regulatory scrutiny around the prior cybersecurity incident remain a central risk and were not meaningfully reduced by this update. The most relevant recent announcement to this quarter’s news is the May 28 guidance raise, which lifted fiscal 2027 revenue expectations to US$1.410 billion to US$1.420 billion and net income to US$242 million to US$248 million. This tighter, higher range sits alongside management’s emphasis on automation and cost efficiency, giving investors a clearer backdrop to weigh AI-enabled margin support against the operational and legal uncertainties tied to past security issues. Yet beneath the strong HSA growth and higher earnings guidance, one risk that investors should be aware

The unit preparing for Israel's invisible war From simulated network breaches to international exercises, inside the IDF's cyber training hub. "An external attacker has managed to breach an isolated network. The attacker now has full control of the entire network. Starting with nothing more than communication access to another network, he exploited vulnerabilities, escalated privileges, and moved laterally until gaining complete control." That was the scenario greeting Calcalist at the IDF's Cyber Trainer Facility, where cyber warriors train against simulated real-world attacks. The attacker in this case was Sgt. Y., one of the facility's instructors. "The defenders are on top of the situation and have already contained the incident," she explained. "One of the things they do particularly well is operational containmentת stopping the attack, stabilizing the environment, and restoring the network to normal operation." The modest facility, consisting of a handful of offices, an auditorium, and a cyber exercise room, serves the same purpose for cyber defenders that large training grounds serve for combat soldiers. It simulates real-world cyberattacks as closely as possible, replacing armed terrorists, tanks, and missiles with hackers and sophisticated attack groups. "We conduct regular training exercises for cyber defenders across the IDF to ensure they remain prepared for cyber incidents," said the facility's commander, Capt. N. "Just as combat units train for battlefield scenarios, cyber defenders must train for digital ones. The principle is the same: hard in training, easier in combat. Our goal is to increase exposure to realistic situations so that when a real incident occurs, they are as prepared as possible." The exercises are designed by soldiers serving at the Cyber Trainer Facility, who also act as the attackers during the simulations. "We run a variety of exercises, ranging from single-day simulations to multi-day operations," said Capt. N. "Some focus exclusively on

Cybersecurity firm Kaspersky has discovered a new campaign delivering malware to people downloading adult video games. Detected in April 2026, Kaspersky’s investigation suggests that this malware is named Argamal, and it is hidden inside hentai game installers. Argamal is a remote access Trojan (RAT) that allows hackers to remotely control a person’s computer. Researchers note that Normal internet scams usually give you a broken file that will not open. These infected downloads actually include fully working games built on common systems like RenPy or RPG Maker. The game runs exactly as you want it to, so you never realise your machine is under someone’s control. How the Attack Works These malicious files are distributed via different platforms such as adult game sites, file-sharing platforms like PixelDrain, and torrent trackers such as AniRena. The game archive, when downloaded, launches a rigged version of a standard library file called FFmpeg DLL and another file named natives2_blob.bin right after the game starts. This rigged library loads into the computer memory without any warning screens popping up, and immediately runs a PowerShell script. To avoid detection, the script first checks the system for monitoring tools like Sandboxie or Procmon64. If the computer seems safe, the malware waits. Three days later, a scheduled task opens and uses a tool called bitsadmin.exe to download an encrypted file (zaesdl.dat) from GitHub, and decrypts it using AES-CBC encryption to create the main Trojan module. To ensure persistence on the device, the malware uses COM hijacking. It alters the registry entries for a real Windows feature called the Windows Color System Calibration Loader. This feature runs every time a user logs into their PC, meaning the malware automatically starts up during every new user session. What Hackers Can Do Argamal malware immediately sends UDP heartbeats (updates) to attackers’ servers

Muscat – Cybersecurity is being positioned as a key engine of economic diversification, with a new government report identifying six high-potential investment opportunities and outlining an ambitious roadmap to establish the sultanate as a regional hub for digital security and innovation. According to the report titled ‘Cybersecurity Market and Investment in the Sultanate of Oman 2026’, cybersecurity has evolved beyond a defensive necessity into a strategic growth sector capable of attracting investment, fostering innovation and creating high-value employment. Among the flagship opportunities is an artificial intelligence-powered Security Operations Centre (AI SOC) planned in Muscat with an estimated investment of US$10mn. The facility is expected to serve between 200 and 400 organisations and tap into a global market projected to reach US$93.75bn by 2030. The report also proposes establishing a quantum cybersecurity centre requiring investments of US$5mn to US$15mn, targeting a market forecast to expand from US$1.5bn in 2023 to US$8.8bn by the end of the decade. Other projects under consideration include a US$19.5mn Cybersecurity-as-a-Service (CaaS) platform aimed at supporting more than 141,000 small and medium enterprises, regional cyber firewall laboratories in Muscat and Suhar serving the Middle East and East Africa, a data recovery and secure electronic device disposal laboratory, and development of the domestic cyber insurance industry. The report highlights Oman’s competitive investment environment, citing incentives such as full foreign ownership for eligible projects, corporate tax exemptions of up to 25 years in free and industrial zones, zero personal income tax, unrestricted repatriation of capital and profits, and free trade agreements with the United States and Singapore. It also points to streamlined licensing procedures and specialised economic zones that support technology-driven industries. Looking ahead, Oman’s 2026–2030 strategy seeks to strengthen the country’s cybersecurity ecosystem through strategic pillars focused on capacity building, market development, investment promotion, partnerships, digital trust and

Case votes against DHS spending bill, cites cuts to cybersecurity, TSA and lack of ICE reforms US Rep. Ed Case voted against a proposed $99.5 billion fiscal year 2027 Department of Homeland Security spending bill that cleared the House Appropriations Committee Wednesday, saying it would leave Americans less safe while failing to address needed immigration enforcement reforms. The measure is the 11th of 12 appropriations bills the committee is advancing to fund the federal government for the next federal fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1, 2026. Case is in his fourth year on the Appropriations Homeland Security Subcommittee, which developed the bill. “Despite the strong support this bill provides for emergency management and our Coast Guard, I could not accept the overall result, which would make Americans less safe through deep cuts to key elements of homeland security including CISA and TSA,” Case said. He also could not support additional funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement or US Customs and Boader Protection Patrol without “comprehensive, meaningful immigration enforcement reforms.” Case cited a roughly 10% cut to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, a 12% cut to the DHS Office of Inspector General, a $347 million overall cut to the Transportation Security Administration, and the elimination of the Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman, which investigates abuse and rights violations in immigration detention facilities. Congress could not reach a deal pairing ICE and CBP funding with reforms during the fiscal year 2026 process and instead passed a spending bill covering the other DHS agencies. A separate reconciliation bill funding ICE and CBP activities through 2029 was signed into law on a partisan basis over Case’s objection. Despite his no vote, Case said the bill includes some accountability provisions he advocated for. These include language prohibiting interference with the public recording of

SAN FRANCISCO: Anthropic said Friday it has suspended access to two powerful AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, to comply with a US national security order. Just three days after publicly launching Fable 5, the company said in a blog post that it received a government directive banning all foreign nationals, even ones who work at Anthropic, from accessing Fable 5 and Mythos 5 over national security concerns. "The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance," it said. The company said it received the letter at 5:21 pm (2121 GMT). Axios reported that the letter came from US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The US Commerce officials did not immediately respond to a request from AFP. The firm said that the letter did not state what specifically concerned the government. However, the firm's "understanding is that the government believes it has become aware of a method of bypassing, or 'jailbreaking'" the Fable 5 model such that it could aid hacking. Fable 5, released Tuesday, is a locked-down version of Mythos 5, a cutting-edge AI model that Anthropic has held back from the public amid concerns that it had unprecedented abilities to identify software vulnerabilities – or holes in code that hackers could exploit Mythos 5 – the unrestricted model – has only been released to select companies. Anthropic said it had reviewed the "jailbreaking" method at the centre of the speculation and the hacking opportunities it exposed, but it does not believe Fable 5 gives hackers capabilities that are not already available through other public models. The firm said that none of its security testers had found a "universal jailbreak," or a way to bypass its safeguards against helping hackers. "We disagree that the

400+ Arch Linux Packages Hijacked To Install Rootkit-Like Malware Security researchers have uncovered one of the largest malicious package campaigns to impact the Arch Linux ecosystem in recent years, with more than 400 software packages hosted in the Arch User Repository (AUR) allegedly modified to distribute a sophisticated credential-stealing malware platform capable of deploying kernel-level rootkit functionality. The incident has reignited concerns over software supply-chain security within open-source ecosystems, highlighting how trusted community repositories can be weaponized by attackers seeking access to developer workstations, cloud infrastructure credentials, and enterprise environments. Researchers from the Independent Federated Intelligence Network (IFIN), independent analysts, and software supply-chain security firm Sonatype have collectively documented a campaign in which threat actors abused package maintenance mechanisms within Arch Linux's community-driven repository infrastructure to distribute malware disguised as legitimate software updates. The discovery affects hundreds of packages hosted on the Arch User Repository, a widely used software distribution platform that extends the capabilities of the Arch Linux operating system beyond its official repositories. Trusted Repository Becomes Attack Vector Unlike officially maintained repositories, the Arch User Repository operates as a community-managed platform where users can contribute package build instructions known as PKGBUILDs. These scripts automate the downloading, compilation, and installation of software that may not be available through Arch Linux's official channels. For many Arch Linux users, the AUR is considered indispensable. It provides access to proprietary software, development tools, nightly builds, legacy applications, drivers, and specialized utilities that are unavailable elsewhere. However, the flexibility that makes the AUR valuable has long been recognized as a potential security risk. Because packages are community maintained, malicious actors can potentially gain control of abandoned projects, compromise maintainer accounts, or exploit trust relationships within the ecosystem to distribute malicious code. Security experts have repeatedly warned that users should review package build scripts

Background As African countries accelerate their digital transformation agendas, effective data governance has become increasingly important for strengthening digital sovereignty, improving public service delivery, fostering innovation, and enabling trusted digital economies. While significant progress has been made across the continent in developing digital infrastructure and regulatory frameworks, many countries continue to face challenges related to data governance, including fragmented institutional arrangements, limited interoperability, inadequate technical capacities, and evolving cybersecurity risks. Continental frameworks such as the African Union Digital Transformation Strategy (2020–2030), the African Union Data Policy Framework (AUDPF), and the Malabo Convention provide important guidance for Member States seeking to establish trusted, secure, and inclusive data ecosystems. However, translating these frameworks into national policies and operational systems requires country-specific assessments, stakeholder engagement, and institutional capacity strengthening. Through the Data Governance in Africa initiative, implemented with the support of GIZ and the European Union, ECA supports African countries in assessing their data governance landscapes and developing national strategies aligned with continental priorities and national development objectives. Republic of the Congo The Republic of the Congo has made notable progress in advancing its digital transformation agenda through the adoption of digital legislation, the establishment of institutions responsible for cybersecurity, telecommunications regulation, and digital development, and the implementation of initiatives under the Vision Congo Digital framework. Despite these advances, a recent self-assessment identified important gaps in the country's data governance ecosystem, including the absence of an integrated national data governance strategy, limited interoperability frameworks, insufficient technical standards, capacity constraints, and fragmented institutional coordination. The assessment also highlighted opportunities to strengthen digital trust, improve data-sharing mechanisms, enhance cybersecurity, and promote data-driven innovation and economic value creation. To support the development of a National Data Governance Strategy, ECA and its partners are undertaking a series of engagements from 2 to 9 June 2026 comprising three
