“This kind of thing should make everybody stop and really think before deploying any AI agents. We simply don’t know to defend against these attacks. We have zero agentic AI systems that are secure against these attacks.”

“It’s an existential problem that, near as I can tell, most people developing these technologies are just pretending isn’t there.”

@fdroidorg We have to put a lot of trust in a couple of systems: the signing server and the production buildserver. That is why they are not easy to upgrade. That provides key benefits down the line, like knowing that the client app will always receive uncompromised files, no matter where it downloads the files from (e.g. verification via the signed index). Thanks for your patience while we work in getting new hardware into our trusted #secure #maintenance setup. 1/2

Around 1975 Abdul Qadeer Khan, a Pakistani spy, managed to steal nuclear secrets from the highly secure uranium enrichment plant Urenco in the Netherlands. This led to nuclear proliferation and Pakistan having the nuclear bomb.

The layers of security at Urenco could not avoid this from happening.

Now..

Are we in #FOSS enriching uranium fully out in the open in how we develop the decentralized #SocialWeb? Or are we reasonably #secure?

In the Everlasting search for clients and servers Federated, detached from corporate underlords, connected to the masses I learned about the following client server duo

Client: Delta Chat
Servers: Chat Mail servers

One thing that jumps immediately into attention, is the fact that when you download the client, select a server, you get a QR code

When you've configured your client, you will immediately notice that you do not need to enter a password for your client. The system is passwordless by default.

You do not need to enter a multi-factor authentication code it doesn't need it.

What you need to do is be careful with, is who you share your link with. Go and play with it, see if it something for you

#ElonMusk’s #DOGE team is using #AI software accessed through #Microsoft’s #cloud computing service #Azure to pore through every dollar of money the department disburses, from contracts to grants to work trip expenses…. Lower level department staffers were directed by agency leadership to let #Musk’s teams access the sensitive financial data….

#law #security#InfoSec#CyberSecurity#NationalSecurity#Trump#TrumpCoup

#ElonMusk’s #DOGE team plans to replicate this process across many depts & agencies, accessing back-end software at different parts of the govt & then using #AI to extract & sift through info about spending on employees & programs, including #DEI initiatives….

Like other #tech leaders, #Musk has championed AI as a tool capable of rapidly making sense of data….However, because of its risks, many private-sector companies & #US govt depts have banned workers from using it on #secure materials.
