You Have Been LaTeXpOsEd: A Systematic Analysis of Information Leakage in Preprint Archives Using Large Language Models
The widespread use of preprint repositories such as arXiv has accelerated the communication of scientific results but also introduced overlooked security risks. Beyond PDFs, these platforms provide unrestricted access to original source materials, including LaTeX sources, auxiliary code, figures, and embedded comments. In the absence of sanitization, submissions may disclose sensitive information that adversaries can harvest using open-source intelligence. In this work, we present the first lar…

The Art of Pivoting - Techniques for Intelligence Analysts to Discover New Relationships in a Complex World
This open source book explores how intelligence and cyber-security analysts can uncover hidden links between threat actor infrastructure and ongoing investigations by pivoting on both classic and unconventional indicators — many of which are often overlooked. The material is grounded in empirical, field-tested strategies used in cyber-security, digital forensics, cyber threat int…

Silencieusement, la Chine est en passe de dominer l’univers de l’intelligence artificielle.
La part totale des téléchargements de nouveaux modèles open source chinois avait dépassé celle des modèles américains – tels Llama de Meta. Alors qu’OpenAI, Google ou Microsoft privilégient des modèles fermés, la Chine encourage les modèles ouverts et gratuits.

A Living Review Pipeline for AI/ML Applications in Accelerator Physics
We present an open-source pipeline for generating a \emph{living review} of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications in accelerator physics and technologies. Traditional review articles provide static snapshots that are quickly outdated by the rapid pace of research. The presented system automatically harvests publications from multiple bibliographic sources (arXiv, InspireHEP, HAL, OpenAlex, Crossref, and Springer), deduplicates entries, applies semantic filtering to…
