News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

The original research paper on IBM’s AI Risk Atlas defines a taxonomy of 40 AI risks. IBM then expanded the online Atlas, and the current IBM documentation lists 100 named risks. Where does the 60 number come from for IBM's list of AI risks?
This is interesting. I was thinking about building a similar solution around GRC but this time focusing on AI regulations, AI threats, breaches, 0-days etc. Out of curiosity did you use agents for this or a platform like Exa AI?
Maskwise and LLM Guard serve different stages of the AI pipeline. llm-guard basically filters prompts and responses to prevent prompt injection attacks. Maskwise is for preparing datasets before LLM training/fine-tuning. It processes large document collections (PDFs, Office docs, images) to detect & anonymize PII.

Vault is in the works :)

If you’re working with LLM training data (like I often am), you’ll know how tricky it can be to scrub out PII without breaking the dataset. I have been using MS Presidio for some time and decided to build a UI on top of it. This is a tool that scans and recognizes sensitive bits in text (eg names, emails, addresses etc), processes images to mask whats sensitive and handles structured...

Three months ago, we started developing an open source agent framework. We previously tried existing frameworks in our enterprise product but faced challenges in certain areas.Problems we experienced:* We risked our stateless architecture when we wanted to add an agented feature to our existing system. Current frameworks lack server-client architecture, requiring significant effort to maintain...

Re:Ask HN: DePIN powered uptime monitoring tool features? on Tuesday January 14, 2025 @06:30PM (#42705397)
For a while, we’ve been developing a DePIN-powered uptime monitoring tool designed to potentially handle data from millions of devices. Our current infrastructure monitoring and uptime management service, (Checkmate) is evolving to include DePIN integration. This will allow users to burn tokens to access data from the UpRock DePIN network.

This is currently how it works under the hood:

- Connect your wallet -> Select the server you want to monitor -> Choose a geographic focus (specific cities, countries, or entire continents) for Checkmate to send ping messages.

While managing large volumes of data isn’t an issue at this stage, visualization remains a challenge. We’ve implemented MapLibre to display the data, giving users the flexibility to send one-off ping requests to the DePIN network or schedule continuous checks (e.g., every minute).

Given the novelty of this concept (similar to RIPE Atlas), visualizations will play a critical role for admins. Here's what we can currently offer on the dashboard:

- Node distribution on a map: Visualize the number of nodes per country.

- Selective probing: Choose probes directly on the map.

- Probe details: View all probes selected for a specific server.

- One-off ping tests: Perform immediate connectivity checks.

I need some feedback on how to move ahead. Since we are just a few weeks away from the general release, it would be great if I could get some thoughts. We’re considering whether this is the right balance of features or if adjustments are needed.

My immediate questions would be:

- If you had access to a global DePIN network for server monitoring, what would you prioritize seeing on the dashboard?

- Would you be interested in seeing historical logs? Like access logs going back to a specific time.

- would you want to customize packet size? (set the size of the packets being sent).

Probably there are others upcoming but I would like to start with a small UI set initially.

How would you solve the problem of collecting data from servers?
Would love to learn more about this. Could you please share some more information?

I am the founder of BlueWave Labs - we accept junior developers and UI/UX designers to give them Canadian experience by building open source products, to help them land their full time IT jobs and would love to talk to anyone who has put some thought on bootcamps. BWL is a bit different from bootcamps but the main idea is the same: to help people land full time jobs.
