Employees across organizations are using AI to harness its potential to automate, coordinate, and optimize complex workflows. Some of that happens through tools IT has reviewed and approved. A lot of it happens through personal accounts and browser extensions nobody in security has ever seen, let alone signed off on. The familiar security playbook to minimize AI risk is to discover the AI tools in use. Gate access with CASB, adding DLP rules to the mix, and tracking their usage. While this is not a bad security model (considering that its worked for years to secure SaaS sprawl) it has its…

Verdict A simply brilliant coffee machine, the Nespresso Vertuo Up is also my favourite Vertuo machine. More compact than its predecessors, the drop-in capsule system is easier to use, and a three-second heat-up time means there’s virtually no wait for a coffee. Excellent coffee-making via the clever Centrifusion brewing system, with a wide choice of coffees, makes this a great choice for anyone who loves a smooth cup of coffee. Only those who would like to integrate milk frothing should look elsewhere. Brilliantly designed Makes excellent coffee Integrated Wi-Fi Creations button genuinely useful No integrated milk frothing Key Features Review…

Google offers 15GB of storage for free, which sounds like a lot when you’re talking about mostly Gmail. Of course, if you use Drive and Photos as well, it’s easy for this to fill up quickly. I do, but usually only use Drive to share files I then delete. And with all the Android phones I test, I turn off automatic backup, or else my Google Photos would be filled quickly with throwaway test images. Even so, I have gotten the dreaded “storage is almost full” message numerous times, largely because of the backlog of e-mails in my cluttered Gmail…

People who know me know that I’m prone to stubborn opinions. That’s a bad thing, so I’m working to unlearn it — any worthwhile stance should be calmly supported by logic and evidence, whether you’re talking about science, history, or just how good iPhones are versus Android devices. One topic I do feel qualified to talk about is Amazon’s Fire TV. I’ve used multiple Fire devices over the years. While it gets the job done, I feel like most devices based on the platform are adequate at best, and a bottleneck at worst. You should be extremely picky if a…

Pillar Security discovered an agent-to-agent attack method in Google’s Agent Development Kit for Python that could lead to secret exposure and pull request (PR) poisoning. The google/adk-python repository had two classes of automated AI agents, namely low-privileged ones open to user interaction, and high-privileged ones accessible only to maintainers. An attacker could manipulate the low-privileged, public-facing agent to pass a prompt to the high-privileged one, gaining access to restricted capabilities, including command execution, and potentially opening the door to supply chain compromise, Pillar’s Dan Lisichkin explains. Initially, the company discovered that an agent responsible for triaging pull requests was commenting…
