How pairing SAST with AI dramatically reduces false positives in code security
The core problem: Context vs. rules Traditional SAST tools, as we know, are rule-bound; they inspect code, bytecode, or binaries for patterns that match known security flaws. While effective, they often fail when it comes to contextual understanding, missing vulnerabilities in complex logical flaws, multi-file dependencies, or hard-to-track code paths. This gap is why their […]

Microsoft Fabric IQ adds ‘semantic intelligence’ layer to Fabric
With Fabric IQ, Microsoft is adding new semantic intelligence capabilities to its unified data and analytics platform, Fabric, that it says will help enterprises maintain a common data model and automate operational decisions. We’ll be hearing a lot more about “IQ” from Microsoft, which has also just introduced Work IQ, the semantic intelligence layer for […]

Do you really need all those GPUs?
For years, the narrative around artificial intelligence has centered on GPUs (graphics processing units) and their compute power. Companies have readily embraced the idea that expensive, state-of-the-art GPUs are essential for training and running AI models. Public cloud providers and hardware manufacturers have promoted this belief, marketing newer, more powerful chips as crucial for remaining […]

North Korea’s ‘Job Test’ trap upgrades to JSON malware dropboxes
The final payload (BeaverTail) showed previously seen capabilities, including “usage of Axioms as embedded HTTP client, enumeration and exfiltration of system information, searching browser profiles and extension directories for sensitive data, and searching for and exfiltrating Word documents, PDF files, screenshots, secret files, files containing environment variables, and other sensitive files such as the logged-in […]

Worm flooding npm registry with token stealers still isn’t under control
A coordinated token farming campaign continues to flood the open source npm registry, with tens of thousands of infected packages created almost daily to steal tokens from unsuspecting developers using the Tea Protocol to reward coding work. On Thursday, researchers at Amazon said there were over 150,000 packages in the campaign. But in an interview […]

Copy-paste vulnerability hits AI inference frameworks at Meta, Nvidia, and Microsoft
Why this matters for AI infrastructure The vulnerable inference servers form the backbone of many enterprise-grade AI stacks, processing sensitive prompts, model weights, and customer data. Oligo reported identifying thousands of exposed ZeroMQ sockets on the public internet, some tied to these inference clusters. If exploited, an attacker could execute arbitrary code on GPU clusters, […]

5G in the automotive industry: Real-world uses and benefits
Automotive vehicles — from passenger cars to commercial autonomous vehicles — have become intelligent devices, and they rely on increasing amounts of computing power and connectivity to operate. A combination of digital technologies, including machine learning, other types of AI and the internet of things, drives these advances in the automotive industry. Among the […]

Databricks fires back at Snowflake with SQL-based AI document parsing
According to analysts, Databricks and Snowflake’s offerings would help enterprises cut down the complexity of workflows required to analyze unstructured data, especially documents. Enterprises, historically, have had to build complex, slow, brittle OCR pipelines if they want to bring data from documents, such as PDFs, into an AI workflow, resulting in the culmination of RAG, […]

Malicious npm package sneaks into GitHub Actions builds
Lessons in defense Barr pointed out that higher privileges in CI/CD pipelines make them an ideal target. Attackers who compromise a build runner can inject code at the source, sign releases with legitimate credentials, or push authentic-looking artifacts. Mitigations, Cipot recommended, would include short-lived, scoped tokens with regular secret rotations. Automated scanning for suspicious packages […]
