An Extension of the Adversarial Threat Model in Quantitative Information Flow
In this paper, we propose an extended framework for quantitative information flow (QIF), aligned with the previously proposed core-concave generalization of entropy measures, to include adversaries that use Kolmogorov-Nagumo $f$-mean to infer secrets in a private system. Specifically, in our setting, an adversary uses Kolmogorov-Nagumo $f$-mean to compute its best actions before and after observing the system's randomized outputs. This leads to generalized notions of prior and posterior vulnera…

Seven Security Challenges That Must be Solved in Cross-domain Multi-agent LLM Systems
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly evolving into autonomous agents that cooperate across organizational boundaries, enabling joint disaster response, supply-chain optimization, and other tasks that demand decentralized expertise without surrendering data ownership. Yet, cross-domain collaboration shatters the unified trust assumptions behind current alignment and containment techniques. An agent benign in isolation may, when receiving messages from an untrusted peer, leak secrets or viola…

Assessing Social Alignment: Do Personality-Prompted Large Language Models Behave Like Humans?
The ongoing revolution in language modeling has led to various novel applications, some of which rely on the emerging social abilities of large language models (LLMs). Already, many turn to the new cyber friends for advice during the pivotal moments of their lives and trust them with the deepest secrets, implying that accurate shaping of the LLM's personality is paramount. To this end, state-of-the-art approaches exploit a vast variety of training data, and prompt the model to adopt a particula…

PDFs had a rough month, with one study crediting them for 15% of cyberattacks and Meta flubbing PDF redactions to leak rivals’ secrets in court. It's possible to make PDFs secure but easy to get burned https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jonippolito…

Third attempt, it calls this round replacing #ubuntu and the manual partition page seemed to have things right, but I'm surprised an installer that takes so long has so little to say. /var/log/installer peeps a DEBUG now and then, but betrays no secrets. 52 minutes and counting, just passed probert.network and another flurry of udevadm empty queue successes.

In Memoriam: John L. Young, Cryptome Co-Founder
John L. Young, who died March 28 at age 89 in New York City, was among the first people to see the need for an online library of official secrets, a place where the public could find out things that governments and corporations didn’t want them to know. He made real the idea – revolutionary in its...
