Anthropic's political activities have ramped up as the company continues to be enmeshed in a nasty legal battle with the Defense Department. The dispute erupted earlier this year over the government's use of Anthropic's AI models and what guidelines (if any) should exist for that usage.
This investigation continues at pace with a number of lines of inquiry being pursued by our detectives. The warrants of further detention for these three men will allow us to continue the investigation, while mitigating any potential risk to the public as we do so. This has been a long-running investigation and part of our ongoing work to disrupt malign activity where we suspect it.
The movements of a hard drive's components, keystrokes on a keyboard, even the electric charge in a semiconductor's wires produce radio waves, sound, and vibrations that transmit in all directions and can-when picked up by someone with sufficiently sensitive equipment and enough spycraft to decipher those signals-reveal your private data and activities.
The discussion focused largely on issues like model distillation - shrinking powerful AI systems into smaller versions - and export controls. The Pentagon dispute was not a central focus of the conversation, per two sources. The tone of the meeting was "friendly," according to multiple sources.
An unidentified foreign hacker broke into the FBI's field office in New York in 2023 and compromised files related to the bureau's investigation into the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to Reuters. The hack took advantage of a server at the Child Exploitation Forensic Lab in the FBI's New York Field Office that was left inadvertently vulnerable by an FBI special agent working on the case.
When the user asks "What enemy military unit is in the region?" the AIP Assistant guesses that it's "likely an armor attack battalion based on the pattern of the equipment." This prompts the analyst to request a MQ-9 Reaper drone to survey the scene. They then ask the AIP Assistant to "generate 3 courses of action to target this enemy equipment," and within moments, the assistant suggests attacking the unit with either an "air asset," a "long range artillery," or a "tactical team."
Dear Secretary Pete Hegseth, I realize that this is a big ask, but would you please invade and take possession of my son and daughter-in-law's apartment? Or maybe you'd like to make them an offer first? Either way, as a concerned mother and patriot who believes that national security begins at home, I feel it's my duty to let you know that Otis and Luna, the co-dictators of Unit 4-C, at 439 Bergen Street, in Park Slope, Brooklyn, must be overthrown.
Over the past year, waves of federal layoffs have left thousands of government employees and contractor clients suddenly out of work. For foreign intelligence services, that disruption has opened new opportunities. With more former U.S. officials seeking employment or freelance work - often in specialized national security fields - adversaries, namely China, have stepped in, posing as consulting firms, research groups and recruiters.
Russian military intelligence is recruiting young people online to carry out arson and other acts of sabotage across Europe. In this week's issue, Joshua Yaffa reports on the Kremlin's secret campaign to undermine the West's support for Ukraine-and breaks down how "single-use agents" are being deployed across the Continent. Some of their missions are small-putting up posters, or picking up a package-while others involve physical attacks, for example setting off explosives and starting fires.
CISA's guidance is intended to assist critical infrastructure stakeholders, which includes private sector entities across various sectors, with implementing an insider threat mitigation program that combines physical security, cybersecurity, personnel awareness, and community partnerships. Although framed for critical infrastructure, CISA's guidance is relevant to a broader range of organizations, including those outside of critical infrastructure sectors.
ICE has been invading U.S. cities, targeting, surveilling , assaulting , and people who are undocumented immigrants. They also have targeted people with work permits , asylum seekers , permanent residents (people holding "green cards"), naturalized citizens , and even citizens by birth.

It may be a bit of an understatement to say that Resecurity has been up in the faces of ScatteredLapsus$Hunters and ShinyHunters. Not Only did they recently embarrass the former by deceiving them with a honeypot and providing law enforcement with details about the threat actor attempting to access the synthetic data, but now they have followed up with a new article about Connor Riley Moucka ("Waifu," "Judische," "Ellyel8"), Cameron John Wagenius ("Kiberphant0m"), and John Erin Binns ("IRDev," "IntelSecrets").
