Why GPS fails in cities. And how it was brilliantly fixed

Our everyday GPS struggles in “urban canyons,” where skyscrapers bounce satellite signals, confusing even advanced navigation systems. NTNU scientists created SmartNav, combining satellite corrections, wave analysis, and Google’s 3D building data for remarkable precision. Their method achieved accuracy within 10 centimeters during testing. The breakthrough could make reliable urban navigation accessible and affordable worldwide.

Securing agentic AI with intent-based permissions

When seatbelts were first introduced, cars were relatively slow and a seatbelt was enough to keep drivers safe in most accidents. But as vehicles became more powerful, automakers had to add airbags, crumple zones, and (eventually) adaptive driver assistance systems that anticipate hazards and avoid collisions. Identity and access management (IAM) is now at a similar inflection point. For decades, action-based permissions have performed the role of the seatbelts of enterprise security, essential guardrails that … More → The post Securing agentic AI with intent-based permissions appeared first on Help Net Security.

Your SOC is tired, AI isn’t

Security teams have discussed AI in the SOC for years, but solid evidence of its impact has been limited. A recent benchmark study by Dropzone puts measurable evidence behind the idea, showing that AI agents can help analysts work faster and with greater accuracy during alert investigations, without major changes to existing workflows. Researchers measured how 148 security professionals performed under two conditions: using AI assistance or investigating manually. Faster investigations, less fatigue The study … More → The post Your SOC is tired, AI isn’t appeared first on Help Net Security.
