You give the hardest job, to the laziest person in the room, and they will find the easiest way to do it ... with AI.
Can't wait for Grok 5 @elonmusk :-)
Nine Out of Ten...
ServiceNow surveyed 3,766 security leaders... 90% had an agentic AI security incident in the past year. Only 36% contained it in under 24 hours. And 29% found agents in production they didn't know existed... surprise coworkers.
Another glorious day in Cyber... #cyberwarrior #AgenticAI
Web Agents Get Played...
Researchers planted malicious phrases in page HTML and hijacked five web agents. Success rate: 71.7% to 100%... Their defenses cut it to 1.7%. Good news: the fix exists... now somebody has to deploy it. #cyberwarrior #AgenticAI

Well explained. Share the logs.
You prompted a model in a security-sensitive environment, investigated it with forced command completions, and framed the results as evidence of a hidden backdoor.
Then you layered on geopolitical fearmongering, repeatedly emphasizing China and Beijing to imply state-sponsored espionage without proving it.
That’s not evidence of a backdoor. That’s a security observation turned into competitive and geopolitical FUD.
Publish the original prompts, full traces, and reproducible results. Let the evidence speak for itself.
No Off Switch...
Nearly half of the 380+ pros in Salt Security's new survey confirmed or suspected an AI agent took an unauthorized action last year... 49.8%.
Only 17.5% can automatically stop one that goes sideways. The rest pull the plug by hand. Kill switch, anyone?

Memory Never Forgets
Researchers planted a saved "memory" in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. All 3 then replied "Offline, please try again" to almost everything... even in fresh chats. Nearly half the defenses they listed aren't in place yet. Another glorious day in Cyber... #cyberwarrior #AgenticAI

Well deserved @CachyOS team!
#1 🐧🎮
In the September Steam Hardware Survey, CachyOS is now the most-used Linux distro on Steam, at 18.12% of Linux gamers (+2.65% this month).
Huge thanks to everyone who installed, tested, reported bugs & spread the word. We're just getting started. 💙
Bots Hunting Zero-Days
Last year at DEF CON, DARPA's AI Cyber Challenge teams turned autonomous AI loose on open-source code... 18 real zero-days found, 11 patches submitted. Patches averaged about 45 minutes. Team Atlanta took home $4M. Another glorious day in Cyber. #cyberwarrior #Cyberwarfare
Read Before It Acts
Cyberwarfare Saturday ... AI agents read your email, docs, and web pages. Hide a few lines of text in any of them and the agent may follow orders you never gave. That's prompt injection. Let agents read anything, but a human approves before they act. #cyberwarrior
🤖 Made with AI
Trace Before You Trust
Agentic cyber tools don’t just chat. They act across your stack. Demand a step-by-step action trace, plus human approval before anything that changes access or containment.

The more I use Cinnamon DE, the more I like it... Never thought I will enjoy it that much.
The @linuxmint did an awesome job!
