The Dysphoria IoT botnet, linked to the disrupted JackSkid operation, has evolved to use blockchain-based command-and-control (C2) infrastructure and victim relays, making it more resilient. Researchers from CNCERT and XLab estimate Dysphoria controls over 200,000 bots, with peaks of 239,000 devices observed abroad and 4,401 active devices in China.
The Dysphoria IoT botnet, tracked by CNCERT and XLab, has adopted blockchain-based name services and infected-device relays following a March law-enforcement operation against JackSkid infrastructure. Researchers put its population above 200,000 bots, with 4,401 confirmed active devices inside China between July 14-20 and a single-day peak of 239,000 bots abroad.
Microsoft introduces Project Perception, an agentic security system designed for AI-driven threats. It combines signals, context, and specialized agents to continuously learn and defend at machine speed.
Microsoft has introduced Project Perception, a new AI-driven cybersecurity system designed to counter the growing threat of machine-speed attacks. The platform combines specialized AI agents—red team (identifying vulnerabilities), blue team (assessing risks), and green team (implementing fixes)—to create a closed-loop defense system that continuously monitors, evaluates, and improves security postures.
Microsoft has introduced Project Perception, a new AI-driven cybersecurity system designed to address the evolving threat landscape shaped by AI and machine-speed attacks. The initiative aims to create a "Cyber Stack" that continuously perceives risk, reasons across vast contexts, and takes action at machine speed while empowering human defenders with enhanced insights and workflows.
This article introduces Project Perception, an agentic security system designed for the AI era. It argues that traditional security approaches cannot keep pace with machine-speed attacks and that a new Cyber Stack is needed to continuously perceive, reason, and act across the digital estate.
