Aikido Infinite introduces continuous, self-remediating AI penetration testing

Aikido Security has unveiled Aikido Infinite, a continuous AI penetration testing solution that autonomously validates and remediates vulnerabilities. Infinite reduces risk with every release by testing software changes as they move through deployment, confirming exploitability, and fixing vulnerabilities within the same workflow. Penetration testing often relies on manual or point-in-time assessments, frequently delivered weeks after software has already shipped. In a recent survey of 500 security and engineering leaders conducted by Aikido, 76% reported deploying … More → The post Aikido Infinite introduces continuous, self-remediating AI penetration testing appeared first on Help Net Security.

Self-spreading npm malware targets developers in new supply chain attack

Security researchers have uncovered another supply chain attack targeting developers: 19 typosquatting npm packages published on npmjs.com that steal credentials, infect projects, and propagate themselves across developer environments. The operation, dubbed “SANDWORM_MODE,” represents a (still) rare example of worm-like malware designed to spread through software supply chains rather than traditional end-user systems. New npm worm builds on Shai-Hulud’s playbook After last year’s bombshell appearance of the self-replicating “Shai-Hulud” worm on the official npm registry, the … More → The post Self-spreading npm malware targets developers in new supply chain attack appeared first on Help Net Security.

Windows 365 for Agents brings managed cloud PCs to autonomous workflows

Microsoft’s Windows 365 for Agents is a cloud platform that gives AI agents secure access to cloud PCs. It lets builders run copilots, agents, and automated workflows in Windows environments without managing infrastructure. The platform includes security, policy controls, scalability, and visibility so agents can browse websites, process data, and complete tasks inside a managed cloud PC. “Windows 365 is designed to support a broad spectrum of agent solutions, operating systems, and data access controls, … More → The post Windows 365 for Agents brings managed cloud PCs to autonomous workflows appeared first on Help Net Security.

International operation dismantles fraud network, €400,000 seized

A coordinated international operation supported by Eurojust dismantled a fraudulent call centre operating from three offices and targeting citizens throughout Europe. Authorities arrested 11 suspects and seized more than €400,000 in cash. Initial investigations identified victims in Latvia and Lithuania who lost over €160,000, with more people believed to have fallen for the fake investment platform. According to the Eurojust statement, “During searches at 32 locations, authorities seized electronic equipment, documents, computers and SIM cards.” … More → The post International operation dismantles fraud network, €400,000 seized appeared first on Help Net Security.

Scientists create ultra-low loss optical device that traps light on a chip

CU Boulder researchers have designed microscopic “racetracks” that trap and amplify light with exceptional efficiency. By using smooth curves inspired by highway engineering, they reduced energy loss and kept light circulating longer inside the device. Fabricated with sub-nanometer precision, the resonators rank among the top performers made from chalcogenide glass. The technology could lead to compact sensors, microlasers, and advanced quantum systems.
