As if defenders of software supply chains didn’t have enough attack vectors to worry about, they now have a new one: machine learning models. ML models are at the heart of technologies such as facial recognition and chatbots. Like open-source software repositories, the models are often downloaded and shared by developers and data scientists, so a compromised model could have a crushing impact on many organizations simultaneously. Researchers at HiddenLayer, a machine language security company, revealed in a blog on Tuesday how an attacker could use a popular ML model to deploy ransomware.

The economic contributions of Canadian immigrants cannot be understated. They are integral in helping lessen the impact of Canada’s shrinking natural labour force. At the same time, however, Canadian immigrants were disproportionately disadvantaged by the COVID-19 pandemic compared to this country’s Canadian-born population.
