What happened

Collection of security-relevant news: AI is rapidly expanding video-surveillance capabilities (including natural-language queries over footage), and Meta is prototyping face-recognition glasses for police/military—raising large privacy and mass-surveillance risks. New cryptanalysis research identifies a class of weak RSA moduli with many zero bits (found in the wild), enabling practical factoring of some keys. A database of ~1M passports was leaked after a low-value system was compromised, exposing high-value credentials. Adversaries and malware authors are adapting to AI-based defenses (in‑tr
