Strange “heavy” electrons could be the future of quantum computing

Scientists in Japan have uncovered a strange new behavior in “heavy” electrons — particles that act as if they carry far more mass than usual. These electrons were found to be entangled, sharing a deep quantum link, and doing so in ways tied to the fastest possible time in physics. Even more surprising, the effect appeared close to room temperature, hinting that future quantum computers might harness this bizarre state of matter.

Can AI agents catch what your SOC misses?

A new research project called NetMoniAI shows how AI agents might reshape network monitoring and security. Developed by a team at Texas Tech University, the framework brings together two ideas: distributed monitoring at the edge and AI-driven analysis at the center. The work is still research stage, but it gives CISOs a sense of what could be possible if agentic AI systems make their way into enterprise environments. The project is open source, so it … More → The post Can AI agents catch what your SOC misses? appeared first on Help Net Security.

Complexity and AI put identity protection to the test

Identity has become a core pillar of cybersecurity strategy. Remote work, cloud-first adoption, and distributed supply chains have moved identity from “a tactical IT consideration to a strategic pillar of cybersecurity,” according to Cisco Duo’s 2025 State of Identity Security report. The study is based on a survey of 650 IT and security leaders across North America and Europe. It points to rising AI-driven threats, weak adoption of phishing-resistant authentication, and growing financial risk as … More → The post Complexity and AI put identity protection to the test appeared first on Help Net Security.
