Cyber insurer Resilience has done a study of its customers’ 1st half losses. Nothing due to AI-specific hacking vectors — the overwhelming majority due to social engineering. Report here: cyberresilience.com/wp-content/u...
The Resilience 2026 Midyear
Cyber Risk Report seeks to close
the gap between the AI hype
machine and AI reality when it
comes to cyber risk. The impact of
AI on cyber risk is clear and evident
- just perhaps not where all the
media attention is currently
focused.
Security researchers have
documented two firsts this half: a
fully autonomous ransomware
operation that ran end to end
without a human at the controls,
and an AI model that breached a
production environment on its
own. While these developments
are important warning shots on the
future of autonomous threats, they
also distort the reality of cyber risk
for organizations today. In the first
half of 2026, Resilience observed
no incurred losses from AI-specific
attack vectors, including prompt
injection, model exploitation, or
agentic AI misuse. What has
produced losses is older and more
familiar: 85.3% of incurred losses
trace back to a person believing a
voice, a message, or a request that
looked legitimate, up from 17.7%
two years ago. So far, AI's clearest
effect on the portfolio isn't a new
attack type. It has made the oldest
one, social engineering, more
convincing.

Were it not for playing Quake as a kid, I'd likely never have discovered the hacking/cybersecurity scene in a formative way or my love for recording music (thanks, Trent). I played Quake decades ago with people I love to this very day. It kept me out of trouble. Thank you, id Software.

Lore and gear talk time. My latest album is about how one responds to the poison of well-concealed, predatory evil. The track "Atropa" builds on that theme by referring to atropa bella-donna, a poisonous plant that's also a biological source for the nerve agent antidote atropine. I love this track.

I've released a new post-rock/darkgaze album named "Of Wolves and Atropine." About me: I focus on the tension between density and stability, not traditional songwriting. Why? Because layering textures makes the bleak sound beautifully triumphant. The thread below describes a few techniques I use.

yeah, tear gas gets a lot more chemically dangerous when it expires from old age or improper storage. tear gas is nasty stuff. it’s carcinogenic, can trigger asthma attacks and other respiratory distress, and it can cause miscarriages. please, PLEASE try to steer clear of it, bring leaf blowers, etc

Great work from @404media.co tracing the the multi-pronged attack on culture: book bans, slopification, and the sabotage of libraries, universities, and schools. www.404media.co/ai-is-superc...
Librarians, teachers, and government workers have had to spend an increasing amount of their time and emotional bandwidth defending the work that they do, fighting against censorship efforts and dealing with the associated stress, harassment, and threats that come from fighting educational censorship. Meanwhile, they are separately dealing with an onslaught of AI slop and the top-down mandated AI-ification of their jobs; there are simply fewer and fewer hours to do what they actually want to be doing, which is helping patrons and students.

NEW: Salesloft said hackers accessed its GitHub account between March and June of this year. During that time, they were able to access data that later helped them steal information from several customers, such as Bugcrowd, Cloudflare, Google, Proofpoint, among others, some likely still unknown.

Working on a modular ambient set using time-lapse photography for visuals. I chose heresy and used a super fast BPM to drive the patch. Result? Beautiful ambient textures that remind me of the staccato elements in the Oppenheimer soundtrack. I'll share a sample if I still like the patch tomorrow.
