Threat actors are evading phishing detection in campaigns targeting Microsoft accounts by abusing the no-code app-building platform Bubble to generate and host malicious web apps. Because the web app is hosted on a legitimate platform, email security solutions do not flag the link as a potential threat, allowing users to access the page. Security researchers at Kaspersky say that threat actors are using the new method to redirect users to the actual phishing page, which is often mimicking a Microsoft login portal that is sometimes hidden behind a Cloudflare check. Any credentials entered on these fake web pages are siphoned to…

Google noted that Google-Agent will be rolling out over the next few weeks. How Google-Agent is…
HP and Dell Technologies separately announced new security capabilities this week that strengthen hardware-level protections and data resilience against physical attacks and emerging quantum-computing threats in the AI era. HP launches TPM Guard and adds quantum-resistant cryptography to printers HP introduced hardware-based HP TPM Guard, which encrypts the link between the Trusted Platform Module and CPU to block physical bus-intercept attacks that can break full-disk encryption solutions such as Microsoft BitLocker. “With this protection in place, all TPM responses – including full disk encryption keys – are sent through an authenticated and encrypted tunnel rather than travelling across the motherboard…

Search is moving from queries typed into a box to conversations held with systems that understand intent, context, and outcomes. People no longer look for pages. They look for solutions, guidance, and confidence that they are making the right choice. Agentic AI pushes this shift further. Instead of waiting for instructions, agents act on goals. They discover information, compare options, trigger workflows, and adjust based on feedback. For digital leaders, this means visibility is no longer only a ranking problem. It becomes a problem of influence inside AI systems. SEO now touches product, data, knowledge management, and experience design. This…

Prompt engineering has become a standard part of how large language models are deployed in production, and it introduces an attack surface most organizations have not yet addressed. Researchers have developed and tested a prompt-based backdoor attack method, called ProAttack, that achieves attack success rates approaching 100% on multiple text classification benchmarks without altering sample labels or injecting external trigger words. A defense paradigm for mitigating backdoor attacks through LoRA-based fine-tuning of language models (Source: NTU Singapore) What ProAttack does Standard backdoor attacks on NLP models work by inserting unusual tokens or phrases into training samples and flipping their labels…
