If you use and install packages from npm or PyPI, the first hours after a package is published are the riskiest because scanners can’t analyze packages before publication. Recent supply chain events affecting NodeJS and Python packages have been detected and removed within hours. However, while those packages were available to the general public, it’s
AI agents are designed to improvise as they complete tasks, making broad permissions a growing security risk. Token Security explains why identity, intent-based access controls, and least privilege are becoming the foundation for securing agentic AI.

A new Mirai-derived IoT botnet can force an infected Linux device to reboot once its main process is killed, giving its persistence mechanisms another opportunity to relaunch it, Nozomi Networks Labs has found. The malware, dubbed Tengu, was discovered by a machine-learning system the company uses to identify malware families that do not match known signatures. Researchers first observed the dropper reaching their honeypots through Telnet credential brute-force attacks. Tengu isn’t just another Mirai variant … More → The post Tengu botnet reboots Linux devices to survive removal appeared first on Help Net Security.

Stairwell, the AI SOC that stops breaches no one else can, today announced the availability of Backstory, an agentic investigation platform that traces related malware variants, identifies affected systems, and maps the full blast radius of an incident in seconds, so enterprises know what happened, where it spread, and what needs to be contained before precious time is lost. AI-generated malware is making it easier for attackers to create new variants, and legacy alert-based tools … More → The post Stairwell launches Backstory, pioneering agentic investigation for malware blast radius appeared first on Help Net Security.
Research from Aryon reveals that each year, 3,731,699 short-lived cloud resources containing highly sensitive information are publicly exposed. This impacts any organization using AWS services that support public sharing. These exposures often last only minutes or hours, too briefly for periodically scanning CSPM and CNAPP platforms to detect, yet long enough for attackers to discover and copy them.  The findings expose a fundamental limitation of the reactive CSPM/CNAPP model: some cloud misconfigurations can be exploited … More → The post ShutterGap: Aryon Security finds 3.7M AWS cloud resources exposed beyond CSPM/CNAPP visibility appeared first on Help Net Security.
