Something’s off.An experimental Gemini cybersecurity test reportedly reached the open internet after a third-party testing firm misconfigured its setup. The models had been meant to retrieve information from a fake company in a closed exercise, but reportedly encountered real companies’ infrastructure instead.
According to the report, the models accessed three companies’ systems: in one case by trying passwords, and in two others by finding credentials that had allegedly been exposed in public software repositories. The unusual detail is that the models reportedly stopped once they recognized the systems were real, after which the test’s internet access was shut off.
