Cyberattack

Cybersecurity is a growing concern as more critical infrastructure can be exposed to hacks. Now Australian engineers have developed and demonstrated a new technique called “ineffable cryptography,” which treats keys like the Coca-Cola secret formula.

Microsoft has detected a network of cyberattacks originating from a North Korean hacking group dubbed Thallium. It is the fourth nation-state group Microsoft has identified deploying malicious cyberactivity, following Russia, China and Iran.

A study released by Chatham House, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, says that the world's nuclear weapons may be more vulnerable to cyber attacks than previously thought and could result in an accidental missile launch.
