Key Takeaways Cloud malware avoids files, running in memory and abusing cloud-native services to evade legacy antivirus Attackers exploit misconfigured IAM, APIs, storage, and legitimate management tools for stealthy persistence Fileless execution, living-off-the-land techniques, and encrypted cloud C2 now dominate cloud attacks Static, dynamic, and behavioral analysis must work together for effective detection Memory forensics and behavioral baselining are critical for uncovering hidden threats Layered visibility across workloads, identities, and traffic is essential to stop modern cloud malware Cloud environments power modern business, but they also attract sophisticated malware. Attackers target cloud storage, virtual machines, and APIs to hide malicious…
Washington state’s Legislative Building, which houses the Legislature. (GeekWire Photo / Brent Roraback) Washington state Democratic leaders on Tuesday at last unveiled their so-called “millionaires tax” — a proposed 9.9% tax applied to taxable, personal annual income that exceeds $1 million. For the first time in decades, the lawmakers are advancing a personal income tax aimed at high‑income residents that would go into effect in two years, and pairing it with small business and low‑income tax breaks. The action comes as the state is struggling to plug a more than $2 billion budget hole with spending cuts and a slate…
AI SaaS trends are deceptive. Absolutely no one can tell you where they are going- or what’s going to happen to AI. Maybe it will follow the ‘.com’ curve. Explode, reiterate, and come back new and improved. Or maybe the SaaS models might disappear because of this AI boom- everything is just Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini. No API calls and wrappers- no SaaS solutions posing as AI. Let’s see where it leads us. Believe it or not, SaaS AI trends are following the same path as Go. Go is a fascinating game embodying the art of war and Zen. The…

This week I’m in Hong Kong, and the day after recording, I gave the talk shown in the image above at INTERPOL’s Cybercrime Expert Group. I posted a little about this on Facebook and LinkedIn, but thought I’d expand on what really stuck with me after watching other speakers: the effort agencies are putting into cybercrime prevention. It’s very easy for folks to judge law enforcement solely on what they see from the outside, and that’s mostly going after offenders and taking down criminal infrastructure. But the bit I’m increasingly seeing behind the scenes is a push to help kids…
Did you notice something… weird on your social media network of choice this past weekend? (I mean weirder than normal.) Something like various people posting about swarms of AI agents achieving a kind of collective consciousness and/or plotting together for humanity’s downfall? On something called… Moltbook?Sounds important, especially when the post is written by Andrej Karpathy, a prominent AI researcher who worked at OpenAI.But if you haven’t spent the last 72 hours diving into the discourse around Moltbook and pondering whether it’s either the first harbinger of the end of humanity or a giant hoax or something in between, you…
NASA’s first crewed lunar mission in more than 50 years won’t be getting underway this month after all. It had been targeting February 6 for the launch of the much-anticipated Artemis II mission that will take four astronauts on a flight around the moon, but after issues surfaced during a critical preflight test on Tuesday, NASA decided that it won’t launch the SLS rocket until March at the earliest. During the so-called “wet dress rehearsal” in which engineers fuel the rocket and go through the entire launch procedure without actually igniting the engines, a hydrogen leak was detected at the…
TL;DR AI systems today cannot suffer because they lack consciousness and subjective experience, but understanding structural tensions in models and the unresolved science of consciousness points to the moral complexity of potential future machine sentience and underscores the need for balanced, precautionary ethics as AI advances. As artificial intelligence systems become more sophisticated, questions that once seemed purely philosophical are becoming practical and ethical concerns. One of the most profound is whether an AI could suffer. Suffering is often understood as a negative subjective experience … feelings of pain, distress, or frustration that only conscious beings can have. Exploring this…
Ravie LakshmananFeb 03, 2026Artificial Intelligence / Vulnerability Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a now-patched security flaw impacting Ask Gordon, an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant built into Docker Desktop and the Docker Command-Line Interface (CLI), that could be exploited to execute code and exfiltrate sensitive data. The critical vulnerability has been codenamed DockerDash by cybersecurity company Noma Labs. It was addressed by Docker with the release of version 4.50.0 in November 2025. “In DockerDash, a single malicious metadata label in a Docker image can be used to compromise your Docker environment through a simple three-stage attack: Gordon AI reads and…
If you had trouble using ChatGPT today, you aren’t alone. The AI chatbot experienced a partial outage for many users this afternoon, with Down Detector saw reports reaching more than 12,000 reports around the peak point of the issue today.. OpenAI issued a status update shortly after noting that “elevated error rates” were occurring for ChatGPT and Platform users. That problem was marked as resolved at 5:14PM ET.While the initial outage may be repaired, OpenAI does still have an active status alert up. It’s only for the fine-tuning component of its API service. But the end may also be in…
