Attorney General James Sues Company Behind Zelle for Enabling Widespread Fraud New York today sued Early Warning Services, a company owned and controlled by a group of the largest banks in the United States that was tasked with developing and operating the electronic payment platform Zelle, for failing to protect its users from massive amounts of fraud. Cyber Acquisitions Palo Alto / CyberArkCrowdStrike / OnumOkta / AxiomArmis raises millions at $5B valuation MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing A recent MIT‑commissioned study—highlighted in Fortune on August 18, 2025—reveals that approximately 95% of generative AI pilot programs at companies failed to deliver any measurable return on investment or financial uplift. The core issue appears to be not the AI itself, but poor integration into existing workflows and misaligned use cases, with only about 5% of pilots achieving rapid revenue growth by focusing sharply on specific pain points. Hackers Hijacked Google’s Gemini AI With a Poisoned Calendar Invite to Take Over a Smart Home Security researchers demonstrated that a poisoned Google Calendar invite could indirectly prompt-inject Google’s Gemini, causing it to control smart-home devices.

    Adversarial Podcast S4E01 - Trump's AI Action Plan, Chip Security Act, receiving gifts from vendors

    00:00 Introduction & BlackHat 03:14 AI Action Plan Overview 13:30 Chip Security Act 20:48 Government led AI-ISAC? 23:16 UK government considering banning public sector ransomware payments 28:14 Microsoft probing if Chinese hackers learned SharePoint flaws through alert 42:07 Ethics in Vendor Relationships – Gifts for meetings America's AI Action Plan “America’s AI Action Plan,” released by the Trump administration, outlines a roadmap with over 90 federal actions across three pillars—accelerating AI innovation, building U.S. AI infrastructure, and asserting international AI leadership through exports and technology alliances. The Chip Security Act: A Bipartisan Solution to Chip Smuggling The Chip Security Act, introduced by U.S. lawmakers, mandates that export‑controlled AI chip makers (like NVIDIA) embed on‑chip location‑verification mechanisms to ensure devices go only where they’re authorized—aiming to deter smuggling (especially to China) without deploying intrusive GPS or kill switches. Why a Government-Led AI-ISAC is a Missed Opportunity Errol Weiss argues that an AI‑ISAC led by the U.S. government, as proposed in the July 2025 White House AI Action Plan, represents a missed opportunity, because government-led initiatives tend to be bureaucratic, slow, less innovative, struggle to win private-sector trust and buy‑in, risk duplicating existing ISAC efforts, and may be perceived as politically biased—undermining effective, rapid, cross-industry intelligence sharing UK plans to ban public sector bodies from paying ransom to cyber criminals The UK government is set to ban public sector bodies and operators of critical national infrastructure from paying ransom demands to cyber criminals, as part of a wider package also mandating mandatory reporting for other organisations planning to pay, aimed at dismantling the ransomware business model and protecting essential services from dangerous disruptions. Microsoft probing if Chinese hackers learned SharePoint flaws through alert, Bloomberg News reports Microsoft is investigating whether a leak from its Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP)—which provides early vulnerability alerts to security partners—may have enabled Chinese-aligned hackers (Linen Typhoon, Violet Typhoon, and Storm-2603) to exploit critical zero‑day flaws in on-premises SharePoint servers before Microsoft fully patched the software, fueling a global espionage and ransomware campaign.

    Adversarial Podcast Ep. 26 - US Treasury's Cybersecurity Failures, SEC scraps proposed cybersecurity rules, what makes AI Security different

    00:00 Intro 03:17 Banks call out US Treasury's cybersecurity failures 28:54 SEC scraps proposed cybersecurity rules 38:05 What makes AI Security different Banks Challenge Treasury on Cybersecurity Failures. A coalition of major U.S. banking associations—including the American Bankers Association, Bank Policy Institute, MFA, and SIFMA—has publicly challenged the U.S. Treasury and OCC to adopt private-sector cybersecurity standards, decentralize sensitive data, enforce rapid breach notifications, and streamline data collection following high-profile email breaches at federal regulators. https://www.theglobaltreasurer.com/2025/06/10/banking-groups-demand-regulator-cybersecurity-standards/ SEC scraps proposed cybersecurity rules for investment advisers, market participants. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has scrapped proposed cybersecurity regulations targeting investment advisers, funds, and market participants. The withdrawal reflects pushback from the financial industry, which cited concerns over compliance burdens and regulatory overlap. Critics argue the move weakens oversight as cyber threats continue to rise across the financial sector. https://www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/sec-withdraw-cyber-rules-investment-advisers-funds/750786/ Exclusive: New Microsoft Copilot flaw signals broader risk of AI agents being hacked—‘I would be terrified’. A newly discovered vulnerability in Microsoft’s Copilot platform—dubbed “Echoleak”—allows malicious actors to extract private user data from AI agent interactions. The flaw underscores the broader risks associated with AI-powered assistants, particularly as they become more deeply embedded in enterprise workflows. Experts warn this class of attacks could signal a new era of AI exploitation. https://fortune.com/2025/06/11/microsoft-copilot-vulnerability-ai-agents-echoleak-hacking/ Hosts: Jerry Perullo (Founder, https://adversarial.com/)Sounil Yu (Founder, https://www.knostic.ai/)Mario Duarte (Founder, stealth startup)Producer: Tillson Galloway (https://tillsongalloway.com)
