The British AI Security Institute (AISI) tested Claude Mythos Preview for cyber capabilities. The model represents a clear leap forward compared to previous AI systems. In tests, it was able to independently find and exploit vulnerabilities. It executed complete multi-step cyberattacks without human assistance. In a 32-step simulation (corporate network), it succeeded completely 3 out […]
Basic-Fit lost the data of 200,000 Dutch members, including personal information and bank details. In total, approximately 1 million members were affected, but no passwords or ID documents were leaked. Booking.com also experienced a hack in which booking and contact details were accessed. Financial data remained secure there, but customers are at risk of phishing […]
The FBI IC3 report shows that cybercrime continues to grow strongly in 2025, with more than 1 million reports. Total damages exceed $20 billion, a historic high. Investment fraud (especially crypto) causes the largest financial losses. Common crimes include phishing, extortion, and identity fraud. The elderly (60+) are particularly vulnerable, losing billions to scams. Ransomware […]
The Dutch software provider ChipSoft is dealing with a ransomware incident. According to the company, customers’ personal data has likely not been affected. For the time being, the attack has no impact on the continuity of healthcare services. ChipSoft took immediate measures to secure systems and limit further damage. Customers remain responsible for any notifications […]
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 […]
