LameHug malware uses AI LLM to craft Windows data-theft commands in real-time

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-07-21 02:57:20

A novel malware family named LameHug is using a large language model (LLM) to generate commands to be executed on compromised Windows systems. LameHug was discovered by Ukraine’s national cyber incident response team (CERT-UA) and attributed the attacks to Russian state-backed threat group APT28 (a.k.a. Sednit, Sofacy, Pawn Storm, Fancy Bear, STRONTIUM, Tsar Team, Forest Blizzard). The malware is written in Python and relies on the Hugging Face API to interact with the Qwen 2.5-Coder-32B-Instr

If you are an organization with some spare storage and bandwidth, or an engineer looking to justify an overprovisioned homelab, you should consider running a Certificate Transparency log. It’s cheaper, easier, and more important than you might think. Certificate Transparency (CT) is one of the technologies that underpin the security of the whole web. It keeps Certificate Authorities honest, and allows website owners to be notified of unauthorized certificate issuance. It’s a big pa

How Let's Encrypt made the internet safer and HTTPS standard - and free

zdnet.com Steven Vaughan-Nichols 2025-08-09 06:16:59

KTSDESIGN/Getty Images In 1996, I registered my first website, Vaughan-Nichols & Associates. After setting up the site, one of the first things I did was to secure connections with a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate. The then-new security network protocol provided an encrypted connection and a digital certificate that authenticates a website's identity. SSL was then, and is now, the minimum security a safe website should provide to its users. The protocol was also a major pain to set up

See Which Restaurants Have The Most Attractive Diners – According to AI! I scraped millions of Google Maps restaurant reviews, and gave each reviewer's profile picture to an AI model that rates how hot they are out of 10. This map shows how attractive each restaurant's clientele is. Red means hot, blue means not.The model is certainly biased. It's certainly flawed. But we judge places by the people who go there. We always have. AndThis website just puts reductive numbers on the superficial calc

APT28 hackers use Signal chats to launch new malware attacks on Ukraine

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-08-30 10:14:59

The Russian state-sponsored threat group APT28 is using Signal chats to target government targets in Ukraine with two previously undocumented malware families named BeardShell and SlimAgent. To be clear, this is not a security issue in Signal. Instead, threat actors are more commonly utilizing the messaging platform as part of their phishing attacks due to its increased usage by governments worldwide. The attacks were first discovered by Ukraine's Computer and Emergency Response (CERT-UA) in M

A Mattress Testing Expert Breaks Down Natural and Organic Certifications (2025)

wired.com Julia Forbes 2025-09-14 18:32:00

As a professional mattress tester, I’ve seen an upward trend in the past few years of people looking into organic mattresses, toppers, and sheets. Whether it’s because of a renewed focus on what is truly “healthy” and toxin-free, or a concern over the use of fiberglass (I know we all remember that blowing up on TikTok), more brands are increasingly getting products certified. However, just because someone’s throwing on a label and using buzzwords like “natural” and “organic” doesn’t mean it’s t

6 Best Organic Sheets (2025), Tested and Reviewed

wired.com Nena Farrell 2025-09-16 06:34:00

What to Look for in Organic Sheets Organic means many things. It's often used to confirm that food was grown without toxic pesticides and chemicals, and doesn't have things like growth hormones or GMOs, in order to label it as organic food. For bedding, it should mean both that organic materials were used to make the fabric—no toxic pesticides used in farming, etc.—and that they were produced organically with nontoxic chemicals. You'll want at least two certifications to prove this. Most sheet
