For years, fraud detection got treated like a detective job. A suspicious payment arrives, an analyst opens the case, checks the account history, compares signals, makes a judgment, then either blocks the user or lets the transaction pass. That still happens. But the volume and pace of fraud have moved so far that human review alone cannot keep up anymore. Fraud is no longer only one stolen card or one fake account.

The engineers are reportedly tasked with helping the intelligence agency use Mythos for certain applications, the report said.

NASA briefly had five astronauts aboard the International Space Station shelter in a docked SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft on Friday, while their Russian counterparts attempted to repair a leaking service module. NASA spokesperson Bethany Stevens initially wrote in an X post on Friday that Russia’s space agency, Roscosmos, had discovered new leaks in its service module, and decided to perform an “extensive repair operation.” “Out of an abundance of caution, NASA has directed all four of the agency’s SpaceX Crew-12 members and NASA astronaut Chris Williams to assume an elevated safety posture in the Dragon spacecraft while the repair is…

A ransomware gang has escalated its attacks on law firms by sometimes sending fake IT workers in person to the victims’ offices, where the imposters steal data directly from the victims’ computers using USB drives or help other gang members connect to the computers remotely, according to Google and the FBI.  On Friday, Google’s cybersecurity teams Mandiant and Google Threat Intelligence Group published a new report accusing the cybercriminal gang known as Silent Ransom Group of attempting to steal victims’ information “using physical, in-person access” in attacks from January through May of this year that targeted “dozens” of victims.  “Mandiant…

The red kite—a majestic raptor with a wingspan of nearly six feet—has made a remarkable comeback across the region, according to Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, which recently captured a group of five of the birds on camera at the reserve. “The Red Kite is an increasingly familiar sight in the skies above Sussex, soaring effortlessly with an almost-six-foot wingspan,” the reserve said in a recent Facebook post. It is a recovery that would have seemed unthinkable just half a century ago. The red kite was once a common sight on the streets of London (Image: Reinhold Möller Ermell) Rye Harbour…
