33+ min ago (309+ words) Police Request for Asset Freeze According to reports by South Korean broadcaster KBS, investigators requested Binance to freeze around 470 million Korean won ($370,000) worth of Solana (SOL) tokens. These funds were believed to be connected to the hack on Upbit. Binance responded to the request by freezing only about $55,000, or roughly 17% of the requested amount. This action was taken after a delay of 15 hours, which Binance attributed to the need for additional verification. The delay has led to questions about the exchange's process for responding to asset freeze requests from law enforcement. Binance's Response to Law Enforcement Requests Upbit's Efforts to Track Stolen Funds In an effort to prevent further incidents, Upbit has also implemented additional security measures to protect user funds. The exchange continues to collaborate with global exchanges and law enforcement agencies to ensure that any stolen funds are…...

This is according to cyber security firm Check Point's'overview of activity, including its latest Global Threat Intelligent insights, which confirmed a 22% rise in ransomware. It also found that one in every 35 GenAI prompts posed a high risk of data leakage, impacting 87% of organisations that use GenAI regularly. Of the four African countries included in the report, Angola faced 4 251 attacks per organisation per week, followed by Nigeria at 3 374, Kenya at 2 384 and South Africa at 1 863 attacks per organisation per week. Overall, attacks in Africa declined by 13% year-over-year (YOY). In terms of African industry sectors, government, financial services, and consumer goods and services were the most attacked in November. With enterprise use of GenAI tools…...

While traditional tech roles like general coding or administrative IT are seeing a cooldown due to AI automation, one fortress remains not just standing, but expanding: Cybersecurity. Welcome to the 2026 Edition of the Cybersecurity Career Guide. A lot has changed in the last twelve months. We aren't just talking about firewalls and antivirus anymore. In 2026, we are talking about defending against AI-generated deepfakes, securing quantum-resistant encryption, and protecting the literal power grids of the United States. Whether you are a college student, an IT pro looking to pivot, or a complete beginner wondering if you can really make six figures hacking "for the good guys," this guide is your roadmap. We are going to break down the salaries, the skills you actually…...

42+ min ago (318+ words) This week at API Days Paris 2025, I sat through fascinating talks about MCP (Model Context Protocol), quantum-enhanced security, and API reliability patterns. The conversations kept circling back to one question: how do we actually implement these concepts in production? So I built MCP Secure Gateway to answer that question. It's a production-ready API gateway that demonstrates: Built with FastAPI, it serves as both a working reference implementation and a learning resource. Traditional random number generators use pseudo-random algorithms. They're deterministic'given the same seed, you get the same sequence. For JWT token IDs and cryptographic operations, that's a potential vulnerability. Quantum Random Number Generators leverage quantum mechanics (like vacuum state fluctuations) to produce truly random numbers. MCP Secure Gateway integrates three providers: 1. ANU (Australian National University) 3. ID Quantique (Hardware-based) Every JWT gets a unique jti (JWT Token ID) generated from quantum randomness:…...

43+ min ago (1180+ words) MANILA, Philippines " Cyber threats in 2025 didn't see new forms. Attackers still relied on traditional vectors such as phishing, ransomware, credential theft, and social engineering. What changed was the volume and scale of these attacks, resulting in what has become an "industrialization of cybercrime" powered by artificial intelligence." Multiple year-end reports from cybersecurity and IT firms " Viettel, Kaspersky, Cloudflare, Trend Micro, Palo Alto, and Fortinet " point to this increase in speed, scale and volume." Jonas Walker, head of threat intelligence for Fortinet told Rappler, "It sounds boring, but what works today will also continue to work next year" but attackers will be able to do it faster." Russian firm Kaspersky's data showed the same upward movement: its systems discovered an average of 500,000 malicious files per day in 2025, with certain categories growing sharply " a 59% surge in password stealer detections, 51% growth in spyware,…...

VPN providers operating in India have been directed to block access to websites that unlawfully disclose citizens' personal details, following an advisory from India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). The directive, which was issued on December 11, warns that these websites "pose a significant risk to Indian users." Authorities highlighted several specific sites that allegedly reveal sensitive personal data, including full names, addresses, mobile numbers, and email addresses. According to the advisory, these platforms remain accessible to users connecting via a virtual private network (VPN). Under the IT Act 2000 and IT Rules 2021, VPN providers must "make reasonable efforts" to prevent access to websites that operate in violation of the law. The directive also explicitly reminds providers of their obligation to assist authorities by providing information needed to verify identities or…...

Daeryun Law Firm LLC said its U.S. subsidiary, SJKP Law Firm LLP (SJKP LLP), has received applications from 2,346 individuals, mostly Korean nationals with U.S. citizenship, local residents and consumers living in Korea. The number is expected to rise, as some consumers who joined a domestic lawsuit sought by Daeryun have also indicated they plan to participate in the U.S. class action, the law firm said. During a press conference held Monday (U.S. time), SJKP LLP said it is preparing to file a class-action complaint in the U.S. Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York against Coupang, which had the personal data of its 33.7 million users in…...

1+ hour, 6+ min ago (241+ words) Sir Lindsay Hoyle has written to MPs warning them about Russian-linked attempts to target them on WhatsApp and other messaging apps. The letter, seen by the Press Association, warns parliamentarians of a rising number of phishing attempts linked to Russian actors. The attacks, where a hostile actor attempts to trick people into sharing sensitive information or compromising their accounts to access it, have been growing on messaging platforms like Signal and WhatsApp which are widely used by MPs and UK officials, the letter says. The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) urged MPs to take further steps to bolster their security in light of the rise in phishing threats, and advised MPs to not use informal messaging apps for parliamentary work. A Government spokesperson said: "Spear-phishing is a common but all-too-effective tactic used by threat actors attempting to gain access to…...

1+ hour, 20+ min ago (940+ words) In an era where AI-powered development tools are revolutionizing software engineering, a crucial question emerges: Should your code and AI infrastructure remain entirely under your control? For organizations prioritizing data sovereignty, compliance, and customization, self-hosted AI code generation solutions offer a compelling answer. " Complete Data Sovereignty When you use cloud-based AI code generation, every line of code passes through external servers. Your proprietary algorithms, business logic, and intellectual property are transmitted to third-party infrastructure. Self-hosting ensures: " IP Protection: Your competitive advantages remain within your walls " Client Confidentiality: No risk of exposing sensitive project details " Regulatory Compliance: Meet GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 requirements " Air-Gapped Environments: Support secure, isolated development networks " Long-Term Cost Efficiency While self-hosting requires upfront investment, the economics become favorable at scale. For 50 developers, cloud costs run $12,000/year ($60,000 over 5 years), while self-hosted infrastructure costs $25,000-$40,000 total over the same period…...
