The safety tool can improve case solvability, support suspect identification and enhance overall public safety outcomes.

Anthropic simply left the stage door open with the entire Claude Code source ready and waiting for the right person to find it. This unprecedented leak has allowed for a deeper understanding of the AI software development assistant.

Rhyne's attack involved unauthorized remote desktop sessions, deletion of network administrator accounts, and changing of passwords, showcasing significant security vulnerabilities.

Private detection and spying on people was only a cottage industry by comparison with what it is today, when everything happens, if not in the glare of publicity exactly, at least within the purview of electronic surveillance of one kind or another. Surveillance is to us what electricity was to James Thurber's aunt, that is to say leaking all over the house.

The FBI identified and addressed suspicious activities on FBI networks, and we have leveraged all technical capabilities to respond.

Here's what to know about how to protect your technology and yourself.
