This week, Cyber Uncut looks at the launch – and the blocking –
of Anthropic’s latest AI models, a raft of cyber attacks on Aussie
organisations, and praises the Australian Federal Police for its
work at home and abroad.
AI giant Anthropic had a tough week recently. It launched its most
advanced AI model yet, only to have the US government force it to
block access. Cyber Daily’s David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft
work through what happened and its implications for organisations
in the Asia-Pacific region.
And it’s been a tough week – a tough month, really, for cyber criminals targeting Australian entities, and even government bodies, both state and federal, were not immune. But it also seems some cyber criminals may have been exaggerating just a little bit. Find out what happened to the NSW government and the Australian Productivity Commission – and how it impacted Aussie journalists!
Finally, the AFP has been very busy, assisting in an international takedown operation targeting vital criminal infrastructure and working with Five Eyes law enforcement agencies to combat organised cyber crime groups targeting vulnerable youth.
Just another week in cyber security.
Enjoy,
The Cyber Uncut team
