6 DEC 2023 · For years now, Iran’s state-sponsored hackers have been some of the most prolific in the world. But prolific does not necessarily mean sophisticated -- its attacks haven’t quite impressed in the way that the U.S., Russia, and China’s do.

But that was only the beginning of a story in which the domestic surveillance toolbox is fired in the midst of a small-scale cyberwar in the South Caucasus, the site of one of the most contentious political disputes on the planet.

10 JAN 2023 · Today's AI can beat humans at Jeopardy, chess, recognizing faces and diagnosing medical conditions. As of last Fall it can write malware, too. In fact, it can write an entire attack chain: phishing emails, macros, reverse shells, you name it. What do we do now?
