U.S. and UK Accuse China of DecadeLong Cyberespionage Campaign

APT31, a group allegedly connected to Chinas Ministry of State Security, is alleged to have carried out a broad cyberespionage operation, according to

APT31, a group allegedly connected to Chinas Ministry of State Security, is alleged to have carried out a broad cyberespionage operation, according to accusations made by American and British authorities, who have also levied penalties against China. The targets were lawmakers, public servants, defence contractors, and dissidents. The effort lasted more than ten years to acquire trade secrets, undermine institutions, and stifle opponents. The United States and Britain placed sanctions on Wuhan Xiaoruizhi Science & Technology and two Chinese people even though Chinese diplomats refuted the accusations. The increase highlights the growing tensions between Beijing and Western countries over cyberespionage, as both sides accuse one another of hacking. The indictment also named specific incidents of targeting, including a 2020 U.S. presidential campaign and an American company implicated in public opinion research during the 2018 midterm election.

In a unanimous vote, the U.N. General Assembly adopted the first international resolution on AI, calling on nations to defend human rights, secure personal information, and watch for potential dangers. The nonbinding resolution, which was put out by the U.S. and has more than 120 cosponsors, including China, highlights the need to bolster privacy regulations. The resolution was praised by U.S. Ambassador to the UN Linda ThomasGreenfield as a concerted attempt to control AI instead of letting it rule us. The measure highlights threats to fundamental freedoms and human rights to address worries about the possible abuse of AI systems. The U.S. Congress will need help enacting laws similar to what Europe has accomplished in AI regulation. Despite resistance, the resolution marks a significant step towards establishing global principles for AI development and use, aiming to mitigate risks while promoting responsible innovation.

GitHub Launches Code Scanning Autofix in Public Beta, Integrating Copilot and CodeQL

With the integration of GitHub Copilot and CodeQL, GitHub has released a code scanning autofix for all users of GitHub Advanced Security in public bet

With the integration of GitHub Copilot and CodeQL, GitHub has released a code scanning autofix for all users of GitHub Advanced Security in public beta. This functionality provides code solutions to fix over twothirds of discovered vulnerabilities with minimum change, covering over 90% of warning kinds in JavaScript, Typescript, Java, and Python. Teams are now resolving issues seven times faster than with traditional security technologies, according to Eric Tooley, Senior Product Marketing Manager at GitHub, who emphasises the value of improving the developer experience to accelerate remediation rates. Code scanning autofix attempts to reduce the amount of "application security debt" by making vulnerability patches easier to implement while writing. This functionality, which may create ideas across several files and dependencies, uses the CodeQL engine and the GitHub Copilot APIs. Language support is planned to be expanded to include C# and Go.
