New Gmail Phishing Attack Uses AI Prompt Injection to Evade Detection

New Gmail Phishing Attack Uses AI Prompt Injection to Evade Detection

Phishing has always been about deceiving people. But in this campaign, the attackers weren’t only targeting users; they also attempted to manipulate AI-based defenses. This is an evolution of the Gmail phishing chain documented by Anurag last week. That campaign relied on urgency and redirects, but this one introduces hidden AI prompts designed to confuse automated analysis. According to Anurag’s …

Laser-excited thorium-229 pioneers major breakthrough in dark matter detection

Laser-excited thorium-229 pioneers major breakthrough in dark matter detection

Key Takeaways Scientists have used laser-excited thorium-229 to probe for ultralight dark matter, even without a fully built nuclear clock. Thorium-229’s unique nuclear transition offers up to a billion times more sensitivity to fundamental forces than current methods. This new technique opens a fresh path for dark matter searches, potentially detecting effects 100 million times weaker than gravity. For nearly …
