Coroot: Open-source observability and APM tool

Coroot is an open-source observability and application performance monitoring tool. The core software, published in Go and accompanied by companion repositories such as coroot-node-agent, focuses on collecting telemetry data across systems. It uses extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) technology to gather metrics and trace inter-service communications without manual instrumentation of application code. Coroot collects standard observability signals that engineering teams rely on. The software aggregates metrics, logs, traces, and continuous profiling data and makes them … More → The post Coroot: Open-source observability and APM tool appeared first on Help Net Security.

Identity verification systems are struggling with synthetic fraud

Fake and expired IDs keep showing up in routine customer transactions, from alcohol purchases to credit card applications. The problem shows up most often in industries that depend on fast onboarding and remote transactions, where identity checks rely heavily on scanned documents and automated workflows. Intellicheck analyzed nearly 100 million identity verification transactions collected through its cloud-based verification service during 2025. The company said the dataset covers about half of the adult population in the … More → The post Identity verification systems are struggling with synthetic fraud appeared first on Help Net Security.

Scientists may have found the holy grail of quantum computing

Scientists may have spotted a long-sought triplet superconductor — a material that can transmit both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance. That ability could dramatically stabilize quantum computers while slashing their energy use. Early experiments suggest the alloy NbRe behaves unlike any conventional superconductor. If verified, it could become a cornerstone of next-generation quantum and spintronic technology.

Generative AI analyzes medical data faster than human research teams

Researchers tested whether generative AI could handle complex medical datasets as well as human experts. In some cases, the AI matched or outperformed teams that had spent months building prediction models. By generating usable analytical code from precise prompts, the systems dramatically reduced the time needed to process health data. The findings hint at a future where AI helps scientists move faster from data to discovery.
