I am pausing the network today to work on Client 1.0 to move beyond generic CV targeting. The new client is re-engineered to stress-test the specific AI architectures used in law enforcement body cams, military surveillance, and commercial security systems.

We effectively found 73 ways to disappear from computer vision.

In just two weeks, the network ran 7.6 million tests. We didn't just find noise; we found the signal:
276,200 Anomalies identified.
73 "Extreme" Anomalies that successfully bypassed BOTH person detection ("Is there a human?") and face detection ("Is there a face?") simultaneously.

I'm opening a private beta for the norecognition distributed client, which finds patterns that break AI facial recognition (see norecognition.org for more info).

I need your help to test the setup and on-boarding process

I built a system that attacks facial recognition. It generates and tests millions of visual patterns to see which ones break facial detection and recognition.

This is the @sec_kc meeting you tell your friends about. Seats are limited (and FREE!) and this lineup won’t wait around. Grab your spot now and get ready for the kind of night you’ll be bragging about for months.

Then legendary #hacker Neil Wyler, aka @grifter801.bsky.social, grabs the stage to tell his origin story. He is walking hacker lore and his #SecKC headliner talk will trace every step of that wild ride.

Joe Marshall @immortanjo3.bsky.social from Cisco Talos will pull back the curtain on the real world of cyber threats. We are talking Ukraine battlefield war stories, live intel from one of the top security teams on Earth, and zero B.S. insights you won’t catch on any webinar.

There were a TON of good stories this week, please check the show notes for all the stories from all the hosts!
