Palantir is a US company that provides software to integrate and analyse data scattered across different systems, such as in the health service. It also provides artificial intelligence-enabled military targeting systems. The investigation cites an expert report, internal to the Swiss army, that assessed Palantir's status as a US company meant there was a possibility sensitive data shared with it could be accessed by the US government and intelligence services.

Sam Corcos, a former startup leader and Department of Government Efficiency affiliate now serving as chief information officer at the Treasury Department, appears to have approved spending at least $1.5 million on up to 3,000 licenses for ChatGPT, the OpenAI platform, federal spending records show. The agency has obligations to spend $1.5 million on the services, and has already outlaid more than $500,000 for the technology, those records show.

AI browsers including Perplexity Comet and OpenAI's ChatGPT Atlas present security risks that cannot be adequately mitigated, and enterprises should prevent employees using them, according to Gartner. "Gartner strongly recommends that organizations block all AI browsers for the foreseeable future because of the cybersecurity risks," analysts Dennis Xu, Evgeny Mirolyubov, and John Watts wrote in a research note last week. They made their recommendation based on risks they had already identified, "and other potential risks that are yet to be discovered, given this is a very nascent technology."

The new version combines data security, cyber recovery, and identity security in a single environment. It is designed to help organizations tackle the ever-present threat of data explosion and identity-driven attacks. According to Commvault, Cloud Unity arose from the need to tackle multiple challenges simultaneously: the growth of data due to AI, the increasing complexity of attacks on identity systems, and the management of all kinds of separate tools.

Amazon sued a prominent artificial intelligence startup on Tuesday over a shopping feature in the company's browser, which can automate placing orders for users. Amazon accused Perplexity AI of covertly accessing customer accounts and disguising AI activity as human browsing. Perplexity's misconduct must end, Amazon's lawyers wrote. Perplexity is not allowed to go where it has been expressly told it cannot; that Perplexity's trespass involves code rather than a lockpick makes it no less unlawful.

The report shows that 91% of organizations believe sensitive data should be allowed in AI model training. At the same time, 78% report high concern about theft or breaches. Experts say this discrepancy stems from a lack of understanding about the permanence of data in AI systems. Once sensitive information is used to train a model, it cannot be fully removed or made completely secure. This creates a lasting exposure risk, particularly when personal or confidential data is involved.

The release is definitely serving his purposes. One after another far right wing propagandist is screaming, Worse than Watergate!!! But the may also be an absolute gold mine for people trying to reconstruct what Trump did in 2020, to say nothing of political oppo researchers and foreign hackers. The subpoenas provide a map of all the political organizations that were close to Trump in 2020 to 2021, organized by person; not all of these are public and certainly not in such a readily usable form.

It said in a letter sent to those affected that their admission dates, financial account numbers and type, patient account numbers, medical record numbers, health insurance details, and medical treatment and claim information was stolen by cybercriminals. The usual personally identifiable information (PII), such as names, addresses, and dates of birth, was lifted too, as were Social Security numbers. The provider of

Using outdated data storage and sharing systems, such as network-attached storage devices, consumer-grade PCs as makeshift servers, and P2P networks can lead to inconsistent data access, increased risk of data breaches, and an inability to handle heavy workloads. Modernise your IT infrastructure and invest in Dell rack servers. This will help you scale up by: Enabling you to keep all files and applications in a centralised location with advanced security to keep data secure.

With Donald Trump expected to sign a deal that will keep TikTok operating in the U.S., many have speculated who might benefit the most if/when this takes place. Among the biggest potential winners is Oracle (ORCL), with the company set to oversee the algorithm of the social media platform and keep the data protected from would-be hackers.

OpenAI has released two open-weight language models designed to operate efficiently on laptops and personal computers. These models are intended to provide advanced reasoning capabilities while allowing developers greater flexibility through local deployment and fine-tuning. Unlike proprietary models, open-weight models provide public access to trained parameters, enabling developers to adapt the models for specific tasks without access to the original training datasets. This approach improves control over AI applications and supports secure, local usage in environments with sensitive data.

Every customer conversation today revolves around the same topic again and again: there's too much data, in too many places, and not enough clarity about who has access to what. In addition, AI tools like Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and Gemini are accelerating how fast data is created, replicated, and shared. Suddenly, files are being drafted, saved, and distributed without any meaningful oversight.

There's never enough time in the day for an accountant. Between balancing ledgers, chasing down missing invoices, and ensuring compliance with changing tax laws, it's easy to feel buried in work. But what if artificial intelligence (AI) can handle it for you accurately and instantly? Thanks to advancements in AI, GPT-powered tools are here to take the stress out of accounting. These tools are designed to streamline financial tasks, provide real-time insights, and help you stay organized, all while saving you time.

Most of your data in an organization is actually in the form of this unstructured data - 90% plus of most organizations - it's data in an unstructured form, but it contains an awful lot of very useful structured data as well," said Kus.
