Week in review: React, Node.js flaw patched, ransomware intrusion exposes espionage foothold

Here’s an overview of some of last week’s most interesting news, articles, interviews and videos: Creative cybersecurity strategies for resource-constrained institutions In this Help Net Security interview, Dennis Pickett, CISO at RTI International, talks about how research institutions can approach cybersecurity with limited resources and still build resilience. He discusses the tension between open research and the need to protect sensitive information, noting that workable solutions come from understanding how people get their jobs done. … More → The post Week in review: React, Node.js flaw patched, ransomware intrusion exposes espionage foothold appeared first on Help Net Security.

The “impossible” LED breakthrough that changes everything

Scientists have discovered how to electrically power insulating nanoparticles using organic molecules that act like tiny antennas. These hybrids generate extremely pure near-infrared light, ideal for medical diagnostics and advanced communications. The approach works at low voltages and surpasses competing technologies in spectral precision. Early results suggest huge potential for future optoelectronic devices.

Architects gain a new superpower for complex curved designs

A researcher from the University of Tokyo and a U.S.-based structural engineer developed a new computational form-finding method that could change how architects and engineers design lightweight and free-form structures covering large spaces. The technique specifically helps create gridshells, thin, curved surfaces whose members form a networked grid. The method makes use of NURBS surfaces, a widely used surface representation format in computer-aided design (CAD). It also drastically reduces computation cost — a task that previously took 90 hours on a high-end GPU completes in about 90 minutes on a standard CPU.

Building the missing layers for an internet of agents

Cybersecurity teams are starting to think about how large language model agents might interact at scale. A new paper from Cisco Research argues that the current network stack is not prepared for this shift. The work proposes two extra layers on top of the application transport layer to help agents communicate in a structured way and agree on shared meaning before they act. Traditional OSI stack and our proposed network stack for agentic applications. We … More → The post Building the missing layers for an internet of agents appeared first on Help Net Security.
