Atom-thin tech replaces silicon in the world’s first 2D computer

In a bold challenge to silicon s long-held dominance in electronics, Penn State researchers have built the world s first working CMOS computer entirely from atom-thin 2D materials. Using molybdenum disulfide and tungsten diselenide, they fabricated over 2,000 transistors capable of executing logic operations on a computer free of traditional silicon. While still in early stages, this breakthrough hints at an exciting future of slimmer, faster, and dramatically more energy-efficient electronics powered by materials just one atom thick.

Scientists just took a big step toward the quantum internet

A team of Danish and German scientists has launched a major project to create new technology that could form the foundation of the future quantum internet. They re using a rare element called erbium along with silicon chips like the ones in our phones to produce special particles of light for ultra-secure communication and powerful computing. With cutting-edge tools like lasers and nanotech, the researchers are working to make something that didn t seem possible just a few years ago: light that can both travel long distances and remember information.

LockBit panel data leak shows Chinese orgs among the most targeted

The LockBit ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation has netted around $2.3 million USD within 5 months, the data leak stemming from the May 2025 hack of a LockBit affiliate panel has revealed. From that sum, the operators took their 20% cut (approximately USD 456,000), and they additionally “earned” some $10,000-$11,000 USD from affiliates that registered through the panel. “What this leak truly shows is the complex and ultimately less glamorous reality of their illicit ransomware activities.

Identifying high-risk APIs across thousands of code repositories

In this Help Net Security interview, Joni Klippert, CEO of StackHawk, discusses why API visibility is a major blind spot for security teams, how legacy tools fall short, and how StackHawk identifies risky APIs and sensitive data directly from code before anything is deployed. API visibility is often cited as a major blind spot for security teams. Why do you think so many organizations still struggle to identify their full API attack surface, and how … More → The post Identifying high-risk APIs across thousands of code repositories appeared first on Help Net Security.
