Yes, use biometric access...

Just don't forget to change your face or fingerprint after a breach.

The Ghost knows: you can reset a password. Not your skin.

⚠️ “Government programs are being treated like ATMs by international crime rings.”

According to a recent report, the U.S. is losing $233–$521 billion per year to fraud — much of it driven by foreign actors using identity theft and synthetic identities at massive scale.

Key insights from the article:
🌍 Attackers operating from China, Russia, India, the Philippines, Poland, and South Africa
💥 COVID-era relief programs were a proving ground for large-scale fraud
🤖 AI is helping attackers scale and evade detection
🆔 Most scams leverage real or synthetic PII, easily pulled from data breaches
🔁 Reuse across agencies and private-sector targets is common

These vulnerabilities aren’t hypothetical or historical — they’re active.

We need more than longer forms and security questions. We need real-time intelligence, modern verification, and a national strategy that treats identity as critical infrastructure.

The proliferation of biometric injection attacks has significant implications for trust in user authentication. Trust is a cornerstone of any system that relies on user interaction, and when that trust is eroded, the entire system can be undermined.

The proliferation of biometric injection attacks has significant implications for trust in user authentication. Trust is a cornerstone of any system that relies on user interaction, and when that trust is eroded, the entire system can be undermined. Users may become wary of organizations that fail to protect their biometric data, while organizations themselves may struggle to maintain confidence in the integrity of their authentication processes.

Sure, we can do this. Or we can actually do something truly useful for the common good and ban any platform that relies on mass to serve targeted no matter the age. In other words, we must have proper social media instead of companies masked as social media.

AI-powered scammers cloned a college radio station's identity buying its expired domain. They filled WECB.fm with fake news and AI authors for ad money, hurting real student journalists. Google had to step in. Stay vigilant online.

🔐 Passwords are out. Microsoft is going all-in on passkeys 🎉🧑‍💻

Starting now, all new Microsoft accounts default to passwordless login:
🔑 Passkeys
📲 Push notifications
🔐 FIDO2 security keys

Why it matters:
📈 Nearly 1 million passkeys registered every day
✅ Passkeys succeed 98% of the time — passwords only 32%
🧠 Fewer support calls, less phishing risk, smoother UX

This shift isn’t just about convenience — it’s a major step toward killing the biggest security weak spot: the password.
