Can AI be sneakier than humans?


We've all heard about how AI is being used to improve cyberattacks, by creating better phishing emails for example, but does AI really have the same potential for being sneaky as humans?
New research from IBM X-Force has set out to answer the question, ‘Do the current Generative AI models have the same deceptive abilities as the human mind?’
IBM helps put AI into space


AI seems to be just about everywhere at the moment and it seems that there's no escape from its reach, even beyond the confines of the Earth.
IBM is announcing a new partnership with space AI leader, Ubotica Technologies, that will use IBM cloud infrastructure and watsonx.ai components, to simplify the process for developers to deploy AI applications to satellites and generate insights from data on the edge in space.
Why serverless platforms will unlock a new era of low-code development [Q&A]


As developers look for ways to improve productivity they're moving away from 'no-code' offerings and have their sights set on serverless platforms to help bolster their 'low-code' solutions.
Serverless platforms take tasks like managing application resilience, performance, security and compliance away from developers, allowing them to focus on functionality and innovation. We spoke to Briana Frank, VP of product at IBM Cloud to find out more about how serverless will unlock the next era of low-code.
IBM launches generative AI tool to help modernize mainframe software


Many large enterprises still rely on mainframes, but the use of legacy technology can hold back modernization and digital transformation efforts.
To help organizations progress their modernization plans, IBM is launching watsonx Code Assistant for Z, a new generative AI-assisted product that will help enable faster translation of COBOL to Java on IBM Z systems and enhance developer productivity on the platform.
Open source framework aims to standardize security data


Cybersecurity benefits from being able to share information about threats in order to speed detection. In pursuit of this the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF) was launched last year by Splunk, Amazon Web Services (AWS), IBM and 15 other cybersecurity firms.
Today OCSF becomes generally available, delivering an open and extensible framework that organizations can integrate into any environment, application or solution to complement existing security standards and processes.
