Risky Bulletin: Russian hackers jump on the fake job interview train

Russian state hackers have begun using fake job interviews as an attack vector. A Portuguese developer faces trial for creating a malicious artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, while an AI assistant compromised an Australian gym's systems. OpenAI released cyber-focused models designed for defensive security teams.

Why it matters: Job seekers and recruiters are exposed to social engineering via fraudulent interviews; development teams need awareness of AI tool misuse risks; gym operators and service providers face emerging AI-driven compromise vectors; blue teams can evaluate OpenAI's new defensive models for threat detection workflows.
