OpenAI is rolling out two new security features for ChatGPT aimed at reducing risks as AI systems become more deeply connected to the web and external services. The company says the changes are designed to protect users and enterprise environments from emerging threats such as prompt injection attacks. Prompt injection attacks involve malicious instructions hidden within text that attempt to manipulate a language model into revealing sensitive information or executing unintended actions. As AI tools gain access to browsers, files, and third-party apps, these types of attacks have become a growing concern for developers and organizations. To address this, OpenAI…

Microsoft has announced a major milestone for Project Silica, its long-running effort to store digital data in glass as an ultra-durable archival medium. The company says it can now successfully encode information into borosilicate glass—the same type of glass commonly used in oven doors and laboratory containers—bringing the technology closer to commercial viability. Until now, Project Silica relied on specialized fused glass suitable for research but impractical for large-scale deployment. By switching to widely available borosilicate glass, Microsoft aims to make the storage method easier and cheaper to produce. The goal of the project is long-term preservation: Microsoft claims the…

Researchers find vulnerabilities in major password managers Security researchers from ETH Zurich and the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) say popular password managers—including Bitwarden, LastPass, and Dashlane—may not be as secure as many users assume. In controlled tests, the team claims they were able to view and even modify stored passwords by exploiting weaknesses in how these services handle encrypted vault data. How the attacks worked Most password managers store encrypted vaults in the cloud so users can sync passwords across devices. Even if servers are breached, encryption is supposed to prevent anyone from reading the stored data. The researchers…

If you’re currently working with a dual-monitor setup, switching to a single ultrawide display can simplify your desk and workflow. You get one continuous screen with no center bezel, less cable clutter, and often more usable space for multitasking.

YouTube is reportedly testing new measures against users who browse the platform with ad blockers enabled, with multiple reports claiming that video comments and descriptions are being disabled when ad-blocking tools are detected. According to user complaints compiled by Android Authority, the restrictions affect both traditional browser extensions and browsers that include built-in ad-blocking features. When the ad blocker is turned off or users switch to another browser, the comments and description sections reappear, suggesting that the behavior is intentional rather than a technical error. Some users with YouTube Premium subscriptions say they are also being affected. While Premium removes…

Security researchers have uncovered a large campaign of malicious Chrome extensions masquerading as AI tools, with more than 260,000 users installing them through the official Chrome Web Store. The campaign, known as AiFrame, includes at least 30 extensions designed to steal sensitive information while posing as legitimate AI assistants and productivity tools. According to analysis from LayerX Security, the extensions use hidden server-side interfaces that function as privileged proxies. This design grants them broad permissions inside the browser, allowing attackers to scan active tabs, copy content, and intercept confidential data such as login credentials, financial details, and other personal information.…
