Southeast Asian countries are departing from the strict approach to AI regulation the European Union uses. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations ASEAN has ten members and is developing a "guide to AI ethics and governance" that offers a businessfriendly, voluntary framework that considers cultural diversity. Unlike the EU, it does not list unacceptable risk categories and seeks to advise rather than impose domestic legislation. Companies in the IT sector, such as Meta, IBM, and Google, are offering comments. The EU wants to harmonise AI regulations globally. In contrast, ASEANs strategy reduces compliance costs and promotes innovation in a multifaceted region. The EU and Southeast Asian nations are still working to unify on fundamental AI principles.

To compete with startups, Adobe introduced new imagegeneration technology, including a function called "Generative Match." With this technology, people can produce images with only 10–20 reference photos or text. Adobe has guaranteed that these generated photos are safe legally. Users have already created three billion photographs, one billion of which were created in the previous month. By enabling the automatic manufacture of hundreds or thousands of photos for many purposes, including websites, social media campaigns, and print advertisements, the business hopes to streamline the creating of images for wellknown brands. Along with templates for brochures and other materials, Adobe also releases tools for creating vector graphics, frequently used for logos and product labels. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

Hacktivist groups have focused on the digital frontlines of the IsraelGaza conflict, attacking Israeli online assets. These hacktivists, who frequently support various causes, disrupt and vandalise websites. Notable examples include the Jerusalem Post. These groups show how increasingly digital weapons are being used in this ongoing fight, even though the physical harm is still minor. Others claim to aim for crucial infrastructure, while some have taken credit for sabotaging Israels emergency alarm systems. Security analysts have noted over 100 Israeli websites experiencing momentary outages due to distributed denialofservice assaults. Although it can be difficult to attribute to these circumstances, experts predict increased cyber espionage operations. These online battles highlight how technology is changing how current conflicts are fought. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

Between July 2022 and July 2023, the Lazarus Group, which has ties to North Korea, laundered nearly 900 million dollars using cryptocurrencies. Approximately 1/7th of crosschain criminal operations, including crypto thefts, scams, and Ponzi schemes, are carried out by this group. As a result of law enforcement efforts to target mixers, threat actors started using chainhopping techniques to resell stolen goods. These individuals take advantage of the lack of reliable mainstream blockchain analytics tools. Furthermore, in the last 104 days, Lazarus stole about $240 million worth of cryptocurrency assets from several companies, including Atomic Wallet, CoinsPaid, Alphapo, Stake.com, and CoinEx. The research emphasises the difficulties law enforcement and virtual asset services confront in battling cryptocurrency criminality. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

Vodafone is reaffirming its commitment to Open RAN Radio Access Network technologies by collaborating with Intel to develop a unique chipset design. For additional flexibility, Open RAN allows equipment mixing from many providers. Vodafone and Orange successfully used Open RAN to make 4G calls in Romania. Nokia is currently testing the technology there. This joint venture with Intel aims to accelerate innovation by creating chipsets for testing and prototyping. To promote competition and innovation in mobile network infrastructure, Open RAN aims to diversify a market currently dominated by proprietary solutions from firms like Ericsson, Nokia, and Huawei. The goal is to advance Open RAN adoption and competition in the industry. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

Andreas Mundt, the head of Germanys cartel office, has raised alarm about how artificial intelligence AI is becoming increasingly important in enhancing Big Techs market dominance. He warns that tech behemoths like Google and Microsoft, which have made significant investments in AI, may use their enormous data stores to gain an advantage in various markets, including smart homes, online advertising, and more. Governments worldwide are scrambling to create AI regulations, with the European Union hoping to do so soon. Aware of the potential for smaller providers to influence the AI environment, Mundt emphasises the necessity of preventing AI from further enhancing corporate domination. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago
EU antitrust regulators are seeking input from Microsoft users and rivals on whether Microsofts Bing, Edge and Microsoft Advertising and Apples iMessa
EU antitrust regulators are seeking input from Microsoft users and rivals on whether Microsofts Bing, Edge and Microsoft Advertising and Apples iMessage should be subject to the Digital Markets Act DMA. This follows investigations initiated by the European Commission in September, examining whether these services should be categorized as core platform services under the DMA. The DMA imposes obligations on major tech companies like Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon, Meta Platforms, and ByteDance to facilitate thirdparty apps on their platforms and enable easier switching between default and rival apps. The Commission is gathering feedback on the importance and usage of these services. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

According to Microsofts Digital Defence Report, India is one of the top three countries in the AsiaPacific that nationstate actors target in cyberattacks. Cybercriminals use AI more and more to improve their phishing and influence operations. However, AI is also essential for defence because it automates cybersecurity tasks like threat detection and response. According to the research, humanoperated ransomware assaults have increased significantly since September 2022, rising by 195%. Passwordbased attacks and MultiFactor Authentication MFA fatigue attempts have also increased. Microsofts builtin security features prevented password attacks, neutralised DDoS attacks, and blocked billions of malware threats. The report covers events that occurred between July 2022 and June 2023. B2B Tech News | 1 years agoBy signing up, you agree to our Privacy Notice and European users agree to the data transfer policy.
