Phone Hacker Forced to Disclose name, Who Told Him to Hack ! Court tells private investigator he must identify 'News of the World' executives who asked him to intercept voicemails. A private detective jailed for illegally intercepting voice-mail messages on behalf of a journalist at one of Rupert Murdoch's British newspapers has been ordered to reveal who asked him to carry out the phone hacking.

JonDoFox 2.5.3 - Browser Optimized for anonymous and secure web surfing The JonDoFox research team has uncovered a new attack on web browsers: Affected are the web browsers Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

It protects the user's privacy while surfing the web by removing identifying information from the browser.

This isn't a plot from the latest cyber-thriller; it's actually been a reality for years now. How this will change – in a positive or negative direction – as artificial intelligence (AI) takes on a larger role in software development is one of the big uncertainties related to this brave new world. In an era where AI promises to revolutionize how we live and work, the conversation about its security implications cannot be sidelined. As we increasingly rely on AI for tasks ranging from mundane to mission-critical, the question is no longer just, "Can AI  boost cybersecurity ?" (sure!), but also "Can AI  be hacked?
