Google warns quantum computing could soon break today’s encryption, threatening global digital security. Quantum machines aren’t powerful enough yet, but progress is accelerating faster than expected. A major risk is “store now, decrypt later,” where hackers collect data today to crack it in the future. Google plans to shift to post-quantum cryptography by 2029, urging […]
Indirect prompt injection is the most widespread and serious vulnerability in AI agents today, not just a theoretical risk. Research shows attacks can transfer across models and behaviors, revealing a fundamental weakness in how agents interpret context. More capable models aren’t safer, high performance often comes with equally high vulnerability. Attacks are especially dangerous because […]
Europese banken en fondsen investeerden eind 2025 minstens 27 miljard dollar in Palantir Technologies, ondanks zware kritiek op mensenrechten en democratische waarden. Het aandeel van Europese investeerders groeide met ruim 60%, terwijl het bedrijf gelinkt blijft aan surveillance, militaire operaties en migratiebeleid. Experts waarschuwen dat deze investeringen indirect een anti-democratische agenda versterken, mede door nauwe […]
De Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens waarschuwt dat de aanpak van schulden steeds vaker ten koste gaat van privacy. Bij vroegsignalering worden kleine betalingsachterstanden al snel gezien als problematische schulden.Gegevensdeling gebeurt regelmatig zonder duidelijke kaders of medeweten van betrokkenen. Ook ontstaan initiatieven buiten de wet, die soms overgaan in ongewenste bemoeizorg. De AP roept op tot strengere naleving […]
The Future Jobs: Robots, Artificial Intelligence, and Digital Platforms in East Asia and Pacific by the World Bank explores how new technologies are reshaping jobs. Robots and automation increase productivity but can replace some routine manual jobs. AI can both replace and assist workers depending on the tasks involved. Dgital platforms are creating new flexible […]
China’s National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team warned that the open-source AI agent OpenClaw has weak default security settings that attackers could exploit to gain system control. Attackers can use prompt injection, embedding malicious instructions in web pages to trick the AI into leaking sensitive data. Researchers showed that features like link previews in […]
An international operation led by Europol dismantled LeakBase, a major online forum trading stolen databases and login credentials. Active since 2021, the platform had 142,000+ users and served as a key hub for cybercriminals buying and selling leaked data. On 3–4 March, coordinated actions across multiple countries led to arrests, house searches, and about 100 […]
Security researchers uncovered “Coruna,” a powerful iPhone exploit toolkit containing 23 exploits and five attack chains that can compromise devices. The toolkit can infect iPhones simply by visiting a malicious website, requiring little or no user interaction. Evidence suggests it was originally built for U.S. intelligence contractors, but the tools were leaked. After the leak, […]
On 23 February 2026, a coalition led by the Global Privacy Assembly warned about AI systems generating realistic images and videos of individuals without consent. They highlighted rising harms such as non-consensual intimate imagery, defamation, cyberbullying, and risks to children. Organizations are urged to follow privacy laws, build strong safeguards, ensure transparency, and provide fast […]
The EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) will allow citizens to create Electronic Signatures legally equivalent to handwritten signatures across the EU. Users can sign contracts directly in their wallet or via certified trust providers, using PIN or biometrics for strong authentication. Such services enable secure online processes like employment contracts, bank onboarding, tax declarations, […]
