Building a Vulnerability Management Program From Scratch

cybersecurity www.reddit.com

Hey everyone, I've recently been tasked with building a vulnerability management program from zero at my company, and I'd love to hear how others here have structured theirs. For context, we have a mid to large scale IT operations system including Cloud, Endpoint, Compliance, SOC, IAM, etc. and the current plan is to build the process top-down. My focus will be to create a baseline + questionnaire (5 - 10 questions for each stakeholder team) to capture expectations, develop an Incident...

Targeted Nakamoto: A Bitcoin Protocol to Balance Network Security and Carbon Emissions

Targeted Nakamoto: A Bitcoin Protocol to Balance Network Security and Carbon Emissions

cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org

arXiv:2405.15089v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In a Proof-of-Work blockchain such as Bitcoin mining hashrate is increasing in the block reward. An increase in hashrate reduces network vulnerability to attack (a reduction in security cost) while increasing carbon emissions and electricity cost (an increase in externalities cost). This implies a tradeoff in total cost at different levels of hashrate and the existence of a hashrate interval where total cost is minimized. Targeted Nakamoto is...

Towards Stealthy and Effective Backdoor Attacks on Lane Detection: A Naturalistic Data Poisoning Approach

cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org

arXiv:2508.15778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning-based lane detection (LD) plays a critical role in autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems. However, its vulnerability to backdoor attacks presents a significant security concern. Existing backdoor attack methods on LD often exhibit limited practical utility due to the artificial and conspicuous nature of their triggers. To address this limitation and investigate the impact of more ecologically valid backdoor...

Sneaking Invisible Instructions by Developers in Windsurf

Sneaking Invisible Instructions by Developers in Windsurf

Embrace The Red embracethered.com

Imagine a malicious instruction hidden in plain sight, invisible to you but not to the AI. This is a vulnerability discovered in Windsurf Cascade, it follows invisible instructions. This means there can be instructions in a file or result of a tool call that the developer cannot see, but the LLM does. Some LLMs interpret invisible Unicode Tag characters as instructions, which can lead to hidden prompt injection. As far as I can tell the Windsurf SWE-1 model can also "see" these invisible...
