Luxembourg, Luxembourg, April 9th, 2025, CyberNewsWire Gcore, the global edge AI, cloud, network, and security solutions provider, has launched Super Transit, a cutting-edge DDoS protection and acceleration feature, designed to safeguard enterprise infrastructure while delivering lightning-fast connectivity.  This comes as organizations face a 56% year-on-year increase in high-volume, complex DDoS attacks that disrupt operations, increase latency, and compromise network security. Traditional solutions often require expensive, complex integrations, but Super Transit is delivered as part of the Gcore DDoS Protection Suite. Using the Gcore global network of 180+ points of presence (PoP), traffic is automatically routed through the Gcore Anycast backbone,…

Over the years, Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) have made substantial progress across a wide range of tasks evolving from simple information retrieval systems to sophisticated agents capable of coding, writing, conducting research, and much more. But despite their capabilities, these models are still largely black boxes. Given an input, they accomplish the task but we lack intuitive ways to understand how the task was actually accomplished. LLMs are designed to predict the statistically best next word/token. But do they only focus on predicting the next token, or plan ahead? For instance, when we ask a model to write a…

Amid recent Bitcoin losses and volatility, more than a quarter—26%—of the Bitcoin supply is now “underwater,” meaning it is worth less than what it was purchased for.This marks a stark reversal of fortunes for investors in recent months, according to data collected by market analysis tool CryptoQuant. On December 15, only 0.015% of the BTC supply was “underwater,” meaning only a very slim percentage of BTC held was without an unrealized gain for investors. As recently as January 18, the percentage of Bitcoin being held at a loss sat at just 1.46%.But according to CryptoQuant’s data, this percentage has been…

Google recently announced it will offer end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) email via Client-Side Encryption (CSE) to all enterprise users. While it’s still in beta, enterprise users can already send encrypted emails to Gmail users within the same organization. However, Google mentioned that “In the coming weeks, users will be able to send E2EE emails to any Gmail inbox, and, later this year, to any email inbox.” This capability is not yet available for all organizations or personal/free Gmail accounts. The new form of encryption aims to simplify the technology behind E2EE. The company presents it as an alternative to S/MIME, which…

Generative AI (GenAI) and large language models (LLMs) are becoming ubiquitous in businesses across sectors, increasing productivity, driving competitiveness and positively impacting companies’ bottom lines. However, as LLMs and GenAI become deeply integrated into your critical operations and decision-making processes, adversaries can exploit subtle vulnerabilities to manipulate your model outputs to coerce unauthorized behaviors or compromise sensitive information. They do this through a method called prompt attacks – a relatively new but increasingly sophisticated technique used to manipulate AI models. Whether you are a business leader, developer or security professional, understanding prompt attacks is essential. This is why we are…
