I missed posting this in earlier; however, better late than never.
Hell is back up and in business again.
An old moderator has relaunched the hacking forum “Hell.”

I see articles and reports like the following about military actually considering fully autonomous missals, drones with missals, etc. I have to ask myself what happened to the logical thinking.
A former Pentagon official is warning that autonomous weapons would likely be uncontrollable in real-world situations thanks to design failures, hacking, and external manipulation. The answer, he says, is to always keep humans “in the loop.”
The new report, titled “ Autonomous Weapons and Operational Risk,” was written by Paul Scharre, a director at the Center for a New American Security. Scharre used to work at the office of the Secretary of Defense where he helped the US military craft its policy on the use of unmanned and autonomous weapons. Once deployed, these future weapons would be capable of choosing and engaging targets of their own choosing, raising a host of legal, ethical, and moral questions. But as Scharre points out in the new report, “They also raise critically important considerations regarding safety and risk.”

The interesting piece in the articles that I have seen on robots taking jobs have only occurred in Asia and in certain situations in the UK. I believe that companies across the US see some of the existing hacking risks (especially since the US has the highest incidents of hackings among the other countries) that prevents companies from just replacing their employees with connected autonomous robots plus I am not sure that robotics is at the level of sophistication that most consumers want to spend a lot of money on at the moment.
Bottom line is that until hacking is drastically reduce (if not finally eliminated); that autonomous AI like connected robots and humanoids will find they will have a hard time being adopted by the US collective mass of the population.
In the future the global employment market will rely heavily on robots, artificial intelligence, and all sorts of automation.

“Kaspersky admits that targeted attacks represent less than one percent of the entire threat landscape”;
Hmmm (wonder how much it cost to develop and deploy?) At least it’s a start.

This has been around for a really, really long time. I remember many years ago one could go online without too much hassel and locate software code that the hacking network shared to teach folks their trade. I actually tested some of it for a firm to help test their infrastructure security; and it worked really well. However, now days it’s about the trade of id’s, credit card information, etc.
Beyond the regular Web, there is the Dark Web. You’ve probably heard something about it but probably just enough to know you didn’t want to know too much more about it. Well, here are some answers to some common questions about the Dark Web.
One philosophy that I have often practice and encourage my team to do is to think like a hacker. It has served me and my teams well. At times; I have shared areas where risks exist in the emerging technologies; and hope that I don’t make folks too nervous. However, we all have to start thinking like hackers or pay the cost some day.
C-level executives from giant corporations and officials from the smallest companies all must think like hackers and test their cyber defenses regularly if they expect to avoid breaches of their systems.
That’s according to a panel of cybersecurity experts who recently spoke to a crowd gathered at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center.
