Hackers Used to Be Humans. Soon, AIs Will Hack Humanity | #CyberSecurity #AI #ArtificialIntelligence

Hackers Used to Be Humans. Soon, AIs Will Hack Humanity | #CyberSecurity #AI #ArtificialIntelligence | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.wired.com - April 19, 2021 6:20 AM
IF YOU DON'T have enough to worry about already, consider a world where AIs are hackers.

Hacking is as old as humanity. We are creative problem solvers. We exploit loopholes, manipulate systems, and strive for more influence, power, and wealth. To date, hacking has exclusively been a human activity. Not for long.

As I lay out in a report I just published, artificial intelligence will eventually find vulnerabilities in all sorts of social, economic, and political systems, and then exploit them at unprecedented speed, scale, and scope. After hacking humanity, AI systems will then hack other AI systems, and humans will be little more than collateral damage.

Why (And How) Teachers Should Start Learning and Teaching Cyber-Security . What should get be taught and learned more in the 21st Century while using ICT?

 

In the 21st Century, Education has a BIG responsibility to adapt to the very quick change in the world and to teach the students the knowledge they need and which are required to fulfill the market’s needs!

 

The market’s needs are ALSO to employ people with the basics of Cyber-Security knowledge as a modern company needs to protect its online reputation and a data loss could be lethal to them, their ruin eventually! SO, the new employees is the students coming out of school, College, High school, Universities; ALL of them need to have the basic knowledge of  Cyber-Security to be competitive in a working market where there is more and more unemployment worldwide…

 

===> A company would take advantage of a new employee who as already the necessary knowledge of Cyber-Security as the company doesn’t need to train him, which saves it a lot of money! <===

===============================================

 

There has been a lot of talk both in the U.S. and internationally about a shortage in skilled IT professionals - with a predicted 864,000 IT vacancies in Europe alone by 2015.

 

What are these skills that organizations are looking for? This infographic by via resource highlights the top skills that make a successful information security professional and skills the future workforce will need to tackle emerging threats.

Amazon is Going to Listen to All Your Voice Recordings on Alexa+_ | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From gizmodo.com - March 17, 11:22 AM

Amazon’s AI-enhanced Alexa assistant is going to need all your voice recordings, and there’s nothing you can do about it. An email sent to Alexa users notes the online retail giant is ending one of its few privacy provisions about recorded voice data in the lead up to Alexa+. The only way to make sure Amazon doesn’t get ahold of any of your vocals may be to quit using Alexa entirely.

Undocumented commands found in Bluetooth chip used by a billion devices | ESP32 | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.bleepingcomputer.com - March 8, 11:12 AM

Exploitation of this backdoor would allow hostile actors to conduct impersonation attacks and permanently infect sensitive devices such as mobile phones, computers, smart locks or medical equipment by bypassing code audit controls.

The researchers warned that ESP32 is one of the world's most widely used chips for Wi-Fi + Bluetooth connectivity in IoT (Internet of Things) devices, so the risk is significant.

Critical ‘AuthQuake’ bug let attackers bypass Microsoft MFA

Critical ‘AuthQuake’ bug let attackers bypass Microsoft MFA | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.scworld.com - December 11, 2024 11:40 AM

A critical vulnerability in Microsoft’s multi-factor authentication (MFA) — dubbed "AuthQuake" — could let attackers bypass MFA and gain unauthorized access to a user’s account.

Discovered by Oasis Security, the researchers reported in a Dec. 11 blog post that the bypass could let attackers access Outlook emails, OneDrive files, Teams chats, and the Azure Cloud.

Because Microsoft has more than 400 million paid Office 365 seats, the consequences of this vulnerability has potentially high impact across numerous industries, especially since there was about a four-month gap between the time it was reported and a patch was released.

Experts say MFA is no longer enough for enterprises

Experts say MFA is no longer enough for enterprises | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.scworld.com - October 11, 2024 12:15 PM

The UK’s cyber watchdog says that companies need to be more mindful with how they handle their multi-factor authentication.

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) said companies can no longer rely on MFA as a blanket solution to their network security woes. The problem, say experts, is that in many cases attackers are now able to intercept MFA keys much in the same way they did passwords.

“Attackers have realized that many of the same social engineering techniques that tricked us into handing over passwords can also be updated to overcome some methods of MFA,” the NCSC said.

Linux-Malware "Perfctl" befällt offenbar schon seit Jahren Linux-Server.
Eine ausgeklügelte Malware befällt massenweise Linux-Server mit falschen Konfigurationen. Das blieb lange unentdeckt, auch wegen der guten Tarnung.


Eine jetzt entdeckte Malware hat es auf Linux-Server abgesehen: Wie die Experten der Cybersecurity-Beratung Aqua Security berichten, ist das Programm namens "Perfctl" vermutlich schon seit 2021 im Umlauf und befällt Linux-Systeme, um diese heimlich als Proxyserver und für Cryptomining zu nutzen. Das Schadprogramm kann auch als Loader für weitere unerwünschte Programme fungieren.

Details about an as-yet-non-public critical 9.9-out-of-10-severity unauthenticated remote-code execution vulnerability affecting all GNU/Linux systems could be revealed today.

That's according to software developer Simone Margaritelli, who says there's still no fix for the decade-old flaw he disclosed to developers three weeks ago. If it is as described, the bug could be used to hijack Linux-based systems from across the internet or network.

According to recent reports, there have been several active malware attacks spotted with code that’s at least partially generated by AI.

AI Could Generate 10,000 Malware Variants, Evading Detection in 88% of Case

AI Could Generate 10,000 Malware Variants, Evading Detection in 88% of Case | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From thehackernews.com - December 23, 2024 8:48 AM

Cybersecurity researchers have found that it's possible to use large language models (LLMs) to generate new variants of malicious JavaScript code at scale in a manner that can better evade detection.

"Although LLMs struggle to create malware from scratch, criminals can easily use them to rewrite or obfuscate existing malware, making it harder to detect," Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers said in a new analysis. "Criminals can prompt LLMs to perform transformations that are much more natural-looking, which makes detecting this malware more challenging.

A new ‘super-realistic’ AI scam could get your Gmail account hacked
A Microsoft security expert warns Gmail users of a new convincing social engineering attack.

Warning signs of a scam attempt
The advent of generative AI has opened up all kinds of opportunities, but it has also ramped up various risks and dangers.

We’ve previously seen hackers who can use AI-generated codes, phishing emails, or even deepfakes to make even more realistic fraud attempts — ones that even security experts can easily fall for.

Hackers Could Have Remotely Controlled Kia Cars Using Only License Plates

Hackers Could Have Remotely Controlled Kia Cars Using Only License Plates | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From thehackernews.com - September 26, 2024 12:02 PM

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a set of now patched vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that, if successfully exploited, could have allowed remote control over key functions simply by using only a license plate.

"These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription," security researchers Neiko Rivera, Sam Curry, Justin Rhinehart, and Ian Carroll said.

The issues impact almost all vehicles made after 2013, even letting attackers covertly gain access to sensitive information including the victim's name, phone number, email address, and physical address.

Qilin ransomware now steals credentials from Chrome browsers

Qilin ransomware now steals credentials from Chrome browsers | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.bleepingcomputer.com - August 22, 2024 5:40 PM

Attack overview
The attack that Sophos researchers analyzed started with Qilin gaining access to a network using compromised credentials for a VPN portal that lacked multi-factor authentication (MFA).

The breach was followed by 18 days of dormancy, suggesting the possibility of Qilin buying their way into the network from an initial access broker (IAB).

Possibly, Qilin spent time mapping the network, identifying critical assets, and conducting reconnaissance.

Hacker Stole Secrets From OpenAI

Hacker Stole Secrets From OpenAI | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.securityweek.com - July 5, 2024 11:32 AM

The New York Times reported on July 4, 2024, that OpenAI suffered an undisclosed breach in early 2023.

The NYT notes that the attacker did not access the systems housing and building the AI, but did steal discussions from an employee forum. OpenAI did not publicly disclose the incident nor inform the FBI because, it claims, no information about customers nor partners was stolen, and the breach was not considered a threat to national security. The firm decided that the attack was down to a single person with no known association to any foreign government.

Nevertheless, the incident led to internal staff discussions over how seriously OpenAI was addressing security concerns.
