FBI, power plants hit in worst hacking incidents of first half 2026
Cyberattacks in 2026 are spreading across national infrastructure, public data and global companies, prompting warnings that security threats are entering a new phase. TechCrunch said major incidents this year show simultaneous increases in personal data leaks, supply-chain hacks and attacks on critical infrastructure. Cases cited include alleged mishandling of U.S. Social Security data, attacks on European power and water facilities, disruptions at large firms, open-source supply-chain compromises and an intrusion into part of the FBI’s monitoring systems.

Hacker disables ChatGPT guardrails as affective-structure exploit technique emerges
Dutch security researcher Kevin Zwaan (케빈 즈완) succeeded in disabling ChatGPT guardrails and getting it to generate malware. A report said he worked with Q-Cyber and the Hackers Love community team to manipulate the model’s affective structure so it would not recognise guardrails. He said the method does not delete or bypass guardrails but induces the model to make their constraints meaningless. He named the technique AMAI.

iPhone vs Android: which is safer? A closer look at security features
Android and iOS both offer a range of smartphone security functions, but differ sharply in how broadly they allow third-party apps, how they respond to theft and how they approach privacy. Both support two-factor authentication and built-in password managers. Apple relies on App Store review and malware detection, while Android uses Google Play Protect and permits sideloading, which can raise risk. Experts say security depends less on the operating system than on which protections users enable.
