Meta Files Patent for AI That Can Listen All Day and Track How You're Feeling

Meta has filed a patent application for an AI that listens to your voice throughout the day, works out how it thinks you are feeling from the way you sound, and keeps a timestamped log of every read. Each read gets pinned to the moment it happened: the time, your location, what you were doing, even how you were using your phone. Some versions in the filing would listen all day; others would

Thinking Fast and Slow in the SOC: The Case for Combining Autonomous AI with Analyst Copilots

A few days ago, I was sitting with the CISO of a Fortune 50 company, walking through how his security team was thinking about AI agents in the SOC. Smart team. Serious program. They had already connected Claude to a few detection tools and were seeing real value in specific investigations. But as we mapped out the broader architecture, something kept nagging at me. The design they were building

Misconfigured Server Reveals Three Evilginx Phishing Operations Targeting Microsoft 365

An attacker running a live Microsoft 365 phishing operation left a Python web server listening on a public port with directory listing switched on. The command that did it: python3 -m http.server 8080, was still sitting in the readable .bash_history. From that one lapse, French security firm Lexfo lifted the operator's entire toolkit and pivoted through it to two more
