After months of digging and reporting, I have learned where Facebook's bizarre AI spam (like "Shrimp Jesus") comes from, who is making it, how it works, and how it is monetized.

Turns out Meta is directly paying people to spam FB with this stuff

Resorts World Las Vegas announced they're performing periodic room checks for the duration of the blackhat / defcon hacking conference. When asked what they are looking for, one of the employees responded with "people hacking our stuff" ☠️

Reminds me of that old blog post by some dude who got pulled aside by the TSA so they could search his bag for "bitcoins".

The original Pentium chip was introduced in 1993. It was the first "superscalar" x86 chip, able to run two instructions per clock cycle. I took this die photo of the chip yesterday. The chip has three metal layers; the thick lines you see are the top metal layer, mostly power and ground. The silicon itself is almost entirely obscured. Around the edges of the chip, tiny bond wires connect to the bond pads, providing the connections to the chip's external pins. 1/N

Elastic: Dismantling Smart App Control
Elastic claims that Windows Smart App Control and SmartScreen have several design weaknesses that allow attackers to gain initial access with no security warnings or popups. A bug in the handling of LNK files can also bypass these security controls. They research bypasses for reputation-based systems and develop detections to identify indicators of attack. No CVE IDs associated.

@alexstamos starts off strong on his latest @riskybiz episode.

Note to sec company CTOs/CISOs:

If u put in the work to engage with the community on topics that don’t directly affect what u are selling, it buys u some leeway when u have to discuss products that do..

Many would be flamed for taking this stance openly. He pulls it off.
