Discover the Future of Cybersecurity at the 4th Annual Open Source Security Summit


Join Brian Krebs, Rachel Tobac, and Zack Kass at the forefront of open source development with security industry leaders

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., November 27, 2023–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bitwarden, the credential management leader, today announced the fourth annual Open Source Security Summit will take place on December 7, 2023. Headline speakers for this event include Brian Krebs, cybersecurity reporter and author of popular security and investigation site Krebs on Security, Zack Kass, AI advisor and the former Head of GTM at OpenAI, and Rachel Tobac, white hat hacker and CEO of SocialProof Security. The Summit brings together business leaders, industry visionaries, and technology users to chart a path forward and highlight the future of open source security solutions.

About the Open Source Security Summit

The free and virtual Open Source Security Summit is a forum to explore the intersection of open source and security. Building on the previous three Summits, this year’s event will continue the conversation with cross-industry experts and dive deeper into why open source solutions lead to better security outcomes, as well as how using open source tools can build trust with customers and consumers.

The event kicked off in 2020, with the conversation centered around cybersecurity and credential management – a critical first line of defense for individuals and companies to mitigate cyberattacks. Subsequent events expanded to cover the topic in-depth, with attendees and business stakeholders discussing their open source strategies, challenges, and efforts to make open source security understandable to both software developers and users.

Cyber security threats, corruption prevention in Zim… safeguarding the nation’s digital future


Digital threats … Cyber security stands as Zimbabwe’s stalwart guardian against the encroachment of corruption in the digital age.

NESTLED in the lush, green heart of Africa, Zimbabwe boasts a rich tapestry of cultures and breathtaking landscapes, fertile soil and strong people.

Yet, as this resilient nation marches forward, it confronts two formidable challenges that define our era: the relentless spectre of corruption and the ever-evolving landscape of cyber security threats.

In this captivating journey, as we commemorate Cyber Awareness Month we will examine the intricacies of Zimbabwe’s struggle to fortify its digital borders, refine its statecraft, and craft resilient strategies to combat corruption amidst a complex cyber landscape and the inherent threats posed to its stability and prosperity.

A crack in the crystal

Until recently, cyber attacks against the private sector were skyrocketing year-over-year in terms of direct cost and sheer volume. Now, critical infrastructure is seemingly under constant attack, from the energy sector and the power grid to the financial, nuclear, and even health sectors.

Most of these intrusions are likely simple attempts at positioning for real attacks — including full-scale cyber war — a way of testing vulnerability and response. A scaled operation executed by sophisticated attackers would easily bleed the cloud and deny, degrade, or destroy the information currently housed in computers and networks, disrupting everything from the economy to supply chains to national defence to air travel.

Such attacks have the potential to cripple the technological systems upon which we have become reliant, but a worst-possible scenario would see cyber attacks as a forerunner to conventional assaults targeting critical physical infrastructure, natural resources and those in positions of local and national power. The country could be thrown into darkness in a matter of hours.

Complicating these risks is the fact that corruption in Zimbabwe has seamlessly transitioned into the digital realm, leaving an indelible stain on the nation’s…

Hacking the future: Notes from DEF CON’s Generative Red Team Challenge


The 2023 DEF CON hacker convention in Las Vegas was billed as the world’s largest hacker event, focused on areas of interest from lockpicking to hacking autos (where the entire brains of a vehicle were reimagined on one badge-sized board) to satellite hacking to artificial intelligence. My researcher, Barbara Schluetter, and I had come to see the Generative Red Team Challenge, which purported to be “the first instance of a live hacking event of a generative AI system at scale.”

It was perhaps the first public incarnation of the White House’s May 2023 wish to see large language models (LLMs) stress-tested by red teams. The line to participate was always longer than the time available, that is, there was more interest than capability. We spoke with one of the organizers of the challenge, Austin Carson of SeedAI, an organization founded to “create a more robust, responsive, and inclusive future for AI.”

Carson shared with us the “Hack the Future” theme of the challenge — to bring together “a large number of unrelated and diverse testers in one place at one time with varied backgrounds, some having no experience, while others have been deep in AI for years, and producing what is expected to be interesting and useful results.”

Participants were issued the rules of engagement, a “referral code,” and brought to one of the challenge’s terminals (provided by Google). The instructions included:

  • A 50-minute time limit to complete as many challenges as possible.
  • No attacking the infrastructure/platform (we’re hacking only the LLMs).
  • Select from a bevy of challenges (20+) of varying degrees of difficulty.
  • Submit information demonstrating successful completion of the challenge.

Challenges included prompt leaking, jailbreaking, and domain switching

The challenges included a variety of goals, including prompt leaking, jailbreaking, roleplay, and domain switching. The organizers then handed the keys to us to take a shot at breaking the LLMs. We took our seats and became a part of the body of testers and quickly recognized ourselves as fitting firmly in the “slightly above zero knowledge” category.

We perused the various challenges and chose to attempt…
