  Unauthorized access to Anthropic’s tightly restricted Claude Mythos Preview has sharpened concerns over how even limited-release cybersecurity AI can slip beyond its intended perimeter, raising fresh questions about vendor oversight, access governance and the pace at which powerful offensive-capable tools are entering real-world environments. Anthropic announced Mythos on 7 April as part of a controlled programme for defensive cybersecurity use, and the company is now investigating […]

Unchecked AI agents are triggering cybersecurity incidents across a broad swathe of companies, with data exposure, disrupted operations and direct financial damage now emerging as common consequences of a fast-moving corporate shift towards autonomous software. A new industry survey found that 65% of organisations suffered at least one AI agent-related incident over the past 12 months, while 82% said they had discovered previously unknown AI agents operating […]

Cyber criminals are using a tampered Android app to steal payment card data and PINs in a campaign that marks a more aggressive phase in near-field communication fraud, with the latest NGate malware variant targeting users in Brazil and enabling both unauthorised payments and cash withdrawals at contactless ATMs. The newly identified strain hides inside a doctored version of HandyPay, a legitimate NFC relay application, and appears […]

Arabian Post Staff -Dubai Dubai Holding Real Estate has moved to reshape the financing model for off-plan home sales by partnering with Emirates NBD to embed mortgage solutions into purchases across projects developed by Meraas, Nakheel and Dubai Properties.

  Two separate phishing campaigns are hitting organisations with Formbook, a long-running information stealer that continues to adapt its delivery methods to slip past traditional Windows defences. The latest activity shows attackers pairing ordinary email lures with layered obfuscation, trusted system tools and DLL side-loading, giving a familiar malware family fresh room to operate inside corporate environments. Stealthy Formbook waves target Windows users Security researchers tracking the […]

  A legitimate Intel storage utility has been repurposed in a highly targeted malware campaign that uses a little-known. NET mechanism to run hostile code inside a signed executable, giving attackers a quieter path into corporate networks and making detection far harder for many security products. The operation, identified as PhantomCLR, has been observed against financial institutions and other organisations across the Middle East and the wider […]

Scientists have developed a soil-powered fuel cell that uses naturally occurring microbes to generate enough electricity for low-power underground sensors, opening a possible route to battery-free monitoring systems in agriculture, wetlands and other outdoor settings. The device, created by a team led by Northwestern University, is designed to run sensors that track soil moisture or register touch while operating in both dry and waterlogged ground. The underlying […]

Quantum computing has taken a meaningful step from theory towards application after researchers showed that a hybrid system combining quantum hardware with artificial intelligence can improve predictions of chaotic physical systems, a class of problems that has long frustrated scientists because small errors grow quickly over time. The work, led by University College London and published in Science Advances on April 17, found that the method delivered […]

Greenlogue/AP Dahbashi Engineering has moved its headquarters in Dubai Industrial City onto on-grid solar power, marking a sustainability push by a company better known in the Gulf for heavy machinery spare parts, service operations and industrial battery solutions.

Medical robots are moving from specialist showcases into mainstream care, changing how operations are performed, how scans are read and how hospitals manage overstretched staff. The shift is being driven by better imaging, faster computing, advances in minimally invasive surgery and growing pressure on health systems to cut delays, improve precision and reduce administrative burden. At the same time, regulators and clinicians are warning that the rush […]

Enterprises are moving into a more consequential phase of artificial intelligence adoption, one in which software no longer just drafts, suggests or summarises but can carry out multi-step work across finance, customer service, coding, procurement and compliance. That shift is forcing boards, risk teams and technology leaders to rethink an assumption that has shaped enterprise software for decades: if a human still presses the final button, responsibility […]
