TeamPCP Supply Chain Campaign: Update 008 - 26-Day Pause Ends with Three Concurrent Compromises (Checkmarx KICS, Bitwarden CLI Cascade, xinference PyPI), CanisterSprawl npm Worm Identified, and Tier 1 Coverage Returns, (Mon, Apr 27th)
This update succeeds&#;x26;#;xc2;&#;x26;#;xa0;TeamPCP Supply Chain Campaign Update 007, published April 8, 2026, which left the campaign in credential-monetization mode following the Cisco source code theft via Trivy-linked credentials, Google GTIG&#;x26;#;39;s formal designation of the operators as UNC6780 (with their credential stealer named SANDCLOCK), and the lapsed CISA KEV remediation deadline for CVE-2026-33634 with no standalone federal advisory. The Sportradar publication deadline fl...

Checkmarx Confirms GitHub Repository Data Posted on Dark Web After March 23 Attack
Checkmarx has disclosed that its ongoing investigation tied to the supply chain security incident has revealed that a cybercriminal group published data related to the company on the dark web. "Based on current evidence, we believe this data originated from Checkmarx's GitHub repository, and that access to that repository was facilitated through the initial supply chain attack of March 23, 2026,

Building Systems That Gracefully Fall Back from AI to Deterministic Logic
This article argues that AI systems should not operate in isolation due to their inherent uncertainty. Instead, it advocates for deliberate hybrid design, combining probabilistic AI models with deterministic rules and fallback mechanisms. By incorporating confidence scoring, layered decision logic, and human-in-the-loop processes, teams can build systems that are more reliable, explainable, and safe. The key takeaway is that robustness comes not from AI alone, but from how it is integrated in...

New AI framework autonomously optimizes training data, architectures and algorithms — outperforming human baselines
AI R&D runs on a cycle of hypothesis, experiment, and analysis — each step demanding substantial manual engineering effort. A new framework from researchers at SII-GAIR aims to close that bottleneck by automating the full optimization loop for training data, model architectures, and learning algorithms. A new framework called ASI-EVOLVE , developed by researchers at the Generative Artificial Intelligence Research Lab (SII-GAIR), aims to solve this bottleneck. Designed as an agentic system for...

Benchmarking Neo's Black-Box DAST Capabilities
Since the launch of Neo, we've been steadily expanding what it can do. Neo has found 33+ real CVEs across open-source projects, performed well on white-box security testing where source code is available, and generally proven itself as a capable security engineer when it has context to work with. What we hadn't shared yet is how Neo does when it's operating purely as a black-box DAST agent no source code, no architecture context, just a URL. The prompt Neo gets is a minimal prompt with no guida
