Computing’s Top 30: Nipun Jaswal

computer.org Laurel Tweed 2025-10-12 13:00:15

To keep his edge, international cybersecurity expert Nipun Jaswal does more than stay up on current security threats and trends; he literally keeps his hands in the game, regularly coding—in up to 10 different languages—and doing lab work including exploring attack vectors and hunkering down with disassemblers and debuggers. Remaining “deeply technical” is not just part of his practice, it’s also fundamental to his leadership philosophy, which centers on staying curious and “close to the core o

An ex-Meta employee sued the social media company on Monday over allegations that its WhatsApp messaging service contained "systemic cybersecurity failures" that potentially compromise user privacy. Attaullah Baig, WhatsApp's former head of security, alleged that Meta retaliated against him after he notified leaders, including CEO Mark Zuckerberg, of security issues at the messaging app. The suit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, claims that after joining W

Programmers Using AI Create Way More Glaring Security Issues, Data Shows

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-12 15:09:57

Artificial intelligence has notorious problems with accuracy — so maybe it's not surprising that using it as a coding assistant creates more security problems, too. As a security firm called Apiiro found in new research, developers who used AI produce ten times more security problems than their counterparts who don't use the technology. Looking at code from thousands of developers and tens of thousand repositories, Apiiro found that AI-assisted devs were indeed producing three or four times mo

Despite spending billions of dollars to make it happen, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Oculus founder Palmer Luckey were never able to make virtual reality a profitable consumer product. Teamed up again, the pair have found an audience that is more comfortable with spending lots of money for slow development timelines and little return: the US Army.

Time to Recycle an Old Laptop or Printer? Here's Where to Take It

Once that old laptop or printer stops working, you need to get rid of it. However, that can be easier said than done. Throwing it in the trash will only lead to more items that could be recycled slowly deteriorating in a landfill, and depending on the device in question could be illegal. That's probably why a recent CNET survey found that almost a third of US adults still have old, unused electronics hanging around the house. The good news?

Artificial intelligence might be booming on paper, but in the real world, there are signs of a major slowdown. In their latest biweekly survey of AI adoption, the US Census Bureau found evidence of an obvious drop-off in corporate AI use — the largest since the survey began in November of 2023. The survey, which compiles data from over 1.2 million firms throughout the US, shows usage of AI tools among companies with over 250 employees dropping from nearly 14 percent in mid-June to under 12 per

‘Sherlock Holmes’ May Get the Animated Treatment From a ‘Shrek’ Producer

Here’s a duo you don’t expect: Sherlock Holmes and Shrek. There won’t be any content crossover if a new animated Sherlock Holmes series—tentatively titled Animated Sherlock—gets off the ground, but the shared behind-the-scenes interests are there. Also of note, the series wouldn’t adapt the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle source material but rather a novel series that puts a more risque twist on his classic tales.

Some Heart Attacks Might Be Triggered by Germs

Germs might be even worse for us than we thought. New research suggests that certain infections could be a contributing factor to heart attacks. Scientists in Finland and the UK conducted the study, which examined arterial plaques taken from people who died from heart disease and others. They found these plaques often contained a dormant layer of bacterial biofilm; they also found evidence that bacteria released from this biofilm can then trigger heart attacks.
