Based on current cybersecurity best practices and frameworks, the resource package outlines cost-effective, actionable and customizable steps that K-12 institutions can take to develop and maintain effective cybersecurity programs.
A newly disclosed flaw in the way OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google carried hidden AI reasoning between API calls let researchers recover internal reasoning and secrets from session logs, including API keys and passwords. The weakness affected encrypted reasoning objects used by the providers' reasoning APIs, where a block created in one session could be replayed into another and, during testing,
Google says Chrome's anti-abuse systems reduced unwanted notifications on Android by more than 7 billion per day during the first quarter of 2026. In a new blog post, Google argues that notification abuse has increasingly been used to distribute scams, malware, phishing attempts, and fraudulent payment requests. To reduce the abuse, Google developed a "Swiss cheese" defense model, where several overlapping systems try to stop abuse at different stages. "Our goal is to ensure that if abuse slips through one layer, another is there to catch it," Google explained. "This approach allows us to halt abuse at the source, preventing deceptive content from reaching users while maintaining a healthy balance between utility and security." Chrome already removes notification permissions from inactive websites, as well as sites that repeatedly trigger suspicious-notification warnings.
Global supply chain and distribution giant Wesco has confirmed in a statement to BleepingComputer that it is investigating a cybersecurity incident. The company's statement comes after data extortion group ExfilSquad claimed to have stolen sensitive information from Wesco and leaked it on their data leak site. Jennifer Sniderman, Vice President of Corporate Communications at Wesco, said that the incident involves the company's cloud CRM environment. “Wesco is aware of a claim of CRM data exfiltration by a third party,” Sniderman told BleepingComputer. “We have worked with our cloud CRM vendor on the matter, and we do not believe that there is a risk to sensitive data.” The company representative added that Wesco has not experienced any business disruption, and all operations continue as normal.
A Malicious SIM Card Can Run Attacker Code Inside the Modems Behind Cellular IoT Devices thehackernews.com
A malicious SIM card can order the device it sits in to run commands of the attacker's choosing. On the cellular modules built into electric-vehicle chargers, industrial routers, and car telematics units, that is enough to take the whole device over. Researchers at the University of Birmingham and the security firm Fuzzware tested 26 phones and cellular modules for the capability, found it
Mozilla has scrapped the cryptographic key behind Firefox and Thunderbird downloads for Linux after an unencrypted copy of it was committed by mistake to one of the company's own private code repositories.

Mozilla has scrapped the cryptographic key behind Firefox and Thunderbird downloads for Linux after an unencrypted copy of it was committed by mistake to one of the company's own private code repositories. That key is how a user, or a Linux distribution packaging the browser, confirms a downloaded Firefox tarball came from Mozilla and was not tampered with. That decision carries a cost for anyone who checks what they download: files signed with the old key stop verifying once a user imports the revocation. That covers older Firefox and Thunderbird downloads, not just future ones. Nothing so far points to anyone outside the company getting hold of the key. The repository was private, the browser maker says a review of available audit records turned up no sign of unauthorized access, and everyone who could see it already had legitimate access anyway. Mozilla revoked it regardless.
In July 2026, Kaspersky experts detected a new attack by the Head Mare group. Previously, we classified them as hacktivists, but now we define them as an APT group due to the sophistication of their TTPs and the absence of destructive activity (encryption, wiping) in the targeted infrastructures. In this latest campaign, the attackers exploited a chain of vulnerabilities in the TrueConf video conferencing server and replaced the original TrueConf client installers with infected versions that installed the PhantomCore malware on the system. An investigation of the compromised server revealed that the attackers used a combination of two new vulnerabilities (assigned internal identifiers KLCERT-26-057 and KLCERT-26-058), allowing them to execute arbitrary code with the highest privileges. This web shell was used for the following activities:
Cybersecurity researchers have warned of a supply chain compromise impacting WordPress plugin vendor BdThemes, prompting the content management systems (CMS) platform's plugins team to temporarily disable their downloads. "Unlike traditional software supply chain attacks, zero source code files were modified within the official WordPress.org repository," Wordfence researcher Paolo Tresso said. Supply chain compromises are especially dangerous because trust in a vendor’s distribution channel is abused to reach a much wider set of victims than a direct attack ever could. Beyond patching, organizations should inventory exposed services, disable unused functionality, and require multi-factor authentication wherever it can be deployed.
