Initially published by the Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) in 2023, the Top 10 for LLM Application Security list seeks to bridge the gap between traditional application security and the unique threats related to large language models (LLMs). Even where the vulnerabilities listed have the same names, the Top 10 for LLM Application Security focuses on how threat actors can exploit LLMs in new ways and potential remediation strategies that developers can implement.

The European Union (EU) cybersecurity regulatory landscape is reminiscent of a medieval tapestry full of interwoven threads that complement one another to create the larger picture. Regulation (EU) 2019/881 created the foundation for information and communications technology (ICT) cybersecurity certification.

2001: A Space Odyssey introduced the world to HAL 9000, the fictional artificial intelligence (AI). HAL’s capabilities include everything from facial recognition to natural language processing and automated reasoning. As HAL malfunctions over time, the computer becomes violent to prevent the humans from disconnecting it. The story serves as a morality tale suggesting that without human oversight, AI is dangerous.

The Terminator is often people’s reference point for artificial intelligence (AI), especially when they worry that technology will be the end of civilization. However, on the other end of the AI spectrum is the beloved, marshmallow fluff Baymax, the helper robot providing assistance to those in his presence. The reality of AI sits somewhere between these two extremes. For security teams, AI initially seemed like a revolutionary technology that would offer faster detection and automated analysis.

As a child, rubber bands almost seemed magical. They would stretch to fit a size or shape. They could be flung across a room, although not ever at another person and certainly not a sibling. Their resilience means that they would always return to their original shape after being stretched, flung, or twisted.

The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) is the overarching agency that incorporates the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), the government’s technical cybersecurity authority. In 2018, the ASD became a statutory agency, assuming responsibility for the Computer Emergency Response Team Australia and the Digital Transformation Agency.

Recent reports of a cyberattack targeting medical device manufacturer Stryker highlight a growing challenge for modern organizations: maintaining visibility across every device connected to their networks. The Michigan-based healthcare technology company reported a global network disruption affecting its Microsoft environment following a cyberattack.

International travel comes with amazing sights, cultural experiences, and local delicacies. However, most travelers know that it comes with differing economies that impact a money’s value and various currencies. When people need cash, they have to translate the money in their wallets to the local currency, which means different coins and bills. Depending on the exchange rate, the currency’s value can change as the person moves from one country to another.

As governments continue to digitize services, the number of systems that support public administration continues to grow. With this expansion comes greater cybersecurity risk. To address these risks, Spain established the Esquema Nacional de Seguridad (ENS), a national framework designed to protect information systems used by public sector organizations. ENS defines the security requirements that ensure government systems remain secure, reliable, and resilient.

Text editors rarely show up in threat models. Installers show up even less. CVE-2025-49144 changes that. The issue is a local privilege escalation in the Notepad++ Windows installer that can allow a low-privileged user to gain SYSTEM-level execution by abusing insecure executable search behavior during installation. Affected versions include Notepad++ 8.8.1 and earlier, per the NVD record.
