Sinto mais orgulho de ser português quando vejo isto do que quando a seleção ganha campeonatos, francamente.

In case anyone here has connections with the Python team: can you please tell them to update their docs on XML security? The way it is is quite misleading, and it's been annoying me for a while. I raised this a while ago in their issue tracker, but it got no reaction whatsoever. https://github.com/python/cpython/issu…

On Automating Security Policies with Contemporary LLMs
The complexity of modern computing environments and the growing sophistication of cyber threats necessitate a more robust, adaptive, and automated approach to security enforcement. In this paper, we present a framework leveraging large language models (LLMs) for automating attack mitigation policy compliance through an innovative combination of in-context learning and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). We begin by describing how our system collects and manages both tool and API specification…

A Rome, des milliers de personnes manifestent contre la loi sur la sécurité du gouvernement ultraconservateur de Giorgia Meloni
Ce décret-loi, adopté début avril par le gouvernement et voté jeudi par la Chambre des députés, protège notamment les forces de l’ordre en cas d’accusations de violences policières, et renforce les peines pour certains délits.

System Prompt Extraction Attacks and Defenses in Large Language Models
The system prompt in Large Language Models (LLMs) plays a pivotal role in guiding model behavior and response generation. Often containing private configuration details, user roles, and operational instructions, the system prompt has become an emerging attack target. Recent studies have shown that LLM system prompts are highly susceptible to extraction attacks through meticulously designed queries, raising significant privacy and security concerns. Despite the growing threat, there is a lack of…

Look, all I'm saying is, this Kennedy psychopath is trying to kill our children. I feel like self-defense rules apply. Isn't it time for a new HHS Secretary anyway?

New Trump vaccine policy limits access to COVID shots
Federal health officials will no longer routinely approve annual COVID-19 shots for younger adults and children who are healthy. Companies that want to market their vaccines to those Americans will need to conduct large, new studies, the Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday. It’s a major shift in FDA’s approach to updating vaccines that protect against the virus. It comes as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his appointees continue to scrutinize the use of vaccines for a numbe…
