The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) says information belonging to up to 200,000 users may have been exposed after hackers accessed its identity and access management system and downloaded a large amount of data.

​The university says the attacker used compromised credentials to log into DTUBasen, its identity and access management (IAM) system, allowing access to more than two decades of user data.

In a disclosure on Friday, DTU confirmed that it cannot “determine precisely what information was downloaded or how many people have been affected.”

However, the Danish university notes that DTUBasen stores information for nearly 40,000 active users and around 160,000 former users.

Next of kin data also exposed

Potentially exposed information for current users includes Danish civil registration numbers (CPR), full names, home addresses, and profile pictures, as well as work email addresses, job titles, office locations, and other employment-related details.

The dataset also contained the names, relationships, and telephone numbers of users’ next of kin, when provided by active users.

DTU notes that in the case of former users, details about home addresses, profile pictures, and information about next of kin are automatically deleted after six months.

“This is a serious attack on DTU, and we deeply regret the uncertainty it is causing for the people whose information may have been affected,” says University Director Bjarke Bak Christensen.

“Our first priority has been to establish the extent of the attack, limit its consequences, and ensure that those affected are notified and know what steps to take,” the director added.

DTU warns that cybercriminals could use the exposed CPR numbers and other personal data for identity fraud and to make phishing attacks more convincing.

Not all notified directly

Potentially impacted individuals will be notified through e-Boks, the official mailbox system that DTU uses for sharing documents and notices with students and staff.

However, the university says it will notify all current and former employees, but not all current and former students whose CPR numbers are held by DTU.

“DTU only holds CPR numbers for a small number of guests and external partners and does not hold CPR numbers for next of kin whose contact details have been registered in DTUBasen,” the organization says.

The public dicslosure is part of DTU’s effort to reach potentially affected individuals it cannot contact directly, and the university is urging people to share it with former employees, students, guests, and external partners.

The organization says that anyone who has been an employee, student, guest, or external partner of DTU since 2003 may be affected by the data breach.

They are advised to be cautious of emails, text messages, and phone calls from individuals who appear to know about their connection with DTU or have access to personal information about them.

Passwords and sensitive information should not be disclosed in replies to unexpected communications, and sudden authentication requests or logins should be treated as suspicious.

Additionally, it is recommended to change the passwords for any other services that use the same credentials as the DTU account and place a credit alert on the affected CPR number.

Save your seat

“Help others whenever you can, even if you feel you have little to give.”

For much of his life, Mohamed Satria Bin Sadon, 41, had always reflected on this lesson from his father, but never felt he was in a position to act on it while still building his own career. 

That changed when his father passed away, just before Satria started his job at Google.  

After some time into his career, Satria had the opportunity to speak with several secondary school and ITE students, where he asked them about their future aspirations. Their answers were grounded in what they knew: gig workers, delivery riders—familiar paths that provided steady income.

Then he mentioned he worked at Google. The room erupted with questions. “How do people get a job in such a big international company right here in Singapore?”

At that moment, Satria saw the disconnect clearly. His experience in tech has shown him that while countless people use technology daily, few understand the vast opportunities within the tech industry. These students had potential—they just needed to see the pathways.

To widen those pathways, Satria knew he would need others in the industry to step forward as well. With his career stable and his father’s lesson now guiding him, Satria reached out to friends and colleagues in the tech industry. 

The response was encouraging, with many eager to give back. And thus, in Mar 2022, the Intelligence Specialist officially founded Malay-Muslims in Tech (MMiT) with a group of tech friends and practitioners.

Bridging the knowledge gap

“There is a common misconception that you need to be a ‘techie’ to work at a tech company,” shared Satria. 

“The reality is that tech requires professionals from every specialisation—marketing, legal, HR, and crisis management. We want to show people what goes on behind the screen of the apps and platforms they use daily.”

As such, MMiT was created to bridge this knowledge gap, exposing people of all ages to real possibilities within the tech industry and helping them envision potential futures for themselves, regardless of background.

This became even more important as the tech landscape grew increasingly uncertain. 

With news of layoffs in recent years, workers face greater challenges in holding onto existing roles or breaking into the industry. Yet even amid the uncertainty, new opportunities continue to emerge for those equipped with the right knowledge and skills.

The early days of the initiative looked promising, but layoffs tested MMiT’s momentum. This led the MMiT team to realise that they needed to amplify their community impact, and one key way was to work with like-minded organisations. 

Yayasan MENDAKI, a pioneer self-help group set up in 1982 to uplift the Malay-Muslim community in Singapore, became a foundational partner. Its support helped MMiT launch some of its first initiatives, including a series of talks, hackathons, and panel sessions.

As MMiT’s community grew, so did its network of collaborators. Yayasan MENDAKI launched its own Professional Networks (PN) initiative, including a network focused on the tech sector. Satria was involved with the tech network for around two years before returning his full focus to MMiT.

“As word of the community spread organically, more people and organisations became eager to connect and collaborate with us,” Satria said. This growing network of partnerships made it easier for MMiT to expand its event offerings while continuing to serve the community effectively.

Beyond MMiT, Satria also worked on a technology-focused initiative during his time at Yayasan MENDAKI called Digital Minaret. Piloted at Masjid Omar Kampong Melaka in May, the initiative aimed to uplift less privileged residents of Jalan Kukoh by equipping them with practical digital skills.

The programme brought participants together at the mosque for hands-on sessions covering AI basics and social media marketing, equipping them with practical skills they could put to use for themselves.

Today, MMiT’s core team of eight to 10 volunteers from various tech companies meets almost weekly to plan and run projects. 

They have impacted nearly 5,000 participants across a wide demographic, from youth entering the workforce to working adults seeking career advancement. Their efforts even earned a mention in the 2023 National Day Rally speech.

MMiT’s approach encourages every team member to lead their own initiatives and cultivate partnerships, creating organic expansion into diverse functions beyond tech. 

Many participants have discovered new networks, forged new partnerships, and even found business opportunities, either directly or indirectly through MMiT. These successes constantly motivate Satria and his team to continue their work.

Along the way, several personal stories have reinforced that motivation. “There are two that really stuck with me that show the range of people we’re reaching,” said Satria. 

The first was about two individuals who met at an MMiT event and later came together to start an AI company, one of them having just been laid off. “To know our community could help them start a new chapter is just incredible,” he shared.

Another memorable instance came from a parent whose child, after trying VR glasses at an MMiT event, suddenly became interested in coding. “Hearing that we’re sparking that kind of curiosity in kids, while also helping professionals launch new ventures, is what makes all this worthwhile.”

It takes just one person to make a difference

On the ground, MMiT runs regular cybersecurity sessions and hackathons, and is developing an AI-powered reading app to help children practise phonics and improve their pronunciation.

Its next major initiative is a community platform for people working in tech, which Satria describes as “LinkedIn with a community focus”. Launching as both an app and website, it will bring together community feeds, a member directory, job board, mentorship opportunities, resource libraries, and innovation labs all under one platform.

The platform is expected to launch in the upcoming months, starting with tertiary students before expanding to young and mid-level professionals.

It will be open to people from all backgrounds, and the team also hopes to work with agencies and other organisations on these initiatives, while continuing to expand its reach through new partnerships.

“There’s a common saying that one person cannot make a difference, but I fundamentally disagree,” Satria said. 

If you see a problem you believe you can help solve, I urge you to try. What begins as a single, focused effort can create a ripple effect, and with the right support, that ripple can grow into a powerful multiplier effect, creating change you never thought possible.

Meta’s new personal assistant, Muse, has become a viral hit, with millions downloading the AI agent, connecting it to bank accounts, messages, or health data, and allowing it to complete tasks for them. But as Muse takes off among consumers, data from inside the app is providing insight into how it organizes and presents information to users.

In recent days, multiple researchers have extracted Muse’s internal files and dumped the agent’s operating instructions, providing a glimpse of how the system was built and behaves. Meta has maintained that it intended for these files to be accessible in the interest of transparency, and they do provide insight into how Muse responds to prompts and questions about, for example, highly politicized or sensitive topics.

Independent AI safety and security researcher Karan Joshi was able to extract an extensive array of Muse instructions and system prompts by using the regular chat interface to essentially ask Muse to copy and share its own software files. Joshi then shared his findings with WIRED.

One of Muse’s instructions appears to be the ability for it to create “a page for every person in the user’s life.” This hourly process involves compiling data on family, partners, friends, colleagues, “collaborators,” and people you “follow,” the instructions say.

The general idea is that Muse can use its “memory” (aka structured text files) to collect information about your relationships and the important people in your life. It can then make suggestions, like giving pointers on how to improve particular relationships or, say, where to take a coffee-loving friend for breakfast. Of course, it’s not unusual for AI chatbots to track social information in general—people have been asking ChatGPT for relationship advice for years now. But it’s interesting to see how Muse is set up given Meta’s history and vast access to social network data.

“What it seemed like to me—from all these prompts, system skills data, and things that they’re feeding into Muse—is that they want to understand your relationships that you have with real people,” says Joshi. “They’re trying to know you like a friend, which is honestly pretty creepy.”

Muse’s documentation says that a page may start “sparse” and then be filled out over time, potentially including sections like Facts, History, The relationship, In common, Open threads, and Strengthening. Meta’s instructions say Muse should only use the “evidence” it has available, and that invented details are worse than an empty page.

The takeaway: Payment organizations have launched a new joint venture to promote Europe’s sovereignty in the payments industry. The European Network for Payments (ENP) is designed to increase interoperability among competing networks, building a common EU infrastructure that should theoretically give Visa, Mastercard, and other US-based giants a very hard time on European soil. Ultimately, ENP could help reduce Europe’s reliance on US-based payment networks as tensions between Washington and Europe continue to grow.

The original ENP initiative launched in 2023, but European sovereignty is now becoming a truly critical issue. The new network’s founders include Bizum (Spain), Bancomat (Italy), European digital wallet company Wero, SIBS-MB WAY, and Vipps MobilePay.

Together, these payment networks already cover 70% of Europe’s and Norway’s population, serving the payment needs of 130 million users across 13 different European countries.

Rather than creating a completely new network, ENP will work on building closer partnerships among payment networks that already exist. First, the new Madrid-based organization will focus on properly connecting the existing networks, adopting a common technical and operational infrastructure based on European standards.

According to ENP’s deployment plan, the common infrastructure will go through a phased rollout, starting with cross-border payments and in-person transactions. ENP should eventually expand its reach to e-commerce and other online payments, in-store point-of-sale transactions, and essentially everything else.

ENP proponents said the organization expects to welcome additional members in the future, further increasing the network’s ability to cover the payment needs of European citizens. ENP expects to absorb the network’s operating costs at first, allowing the basic infrastructure to be built before it begins generating its own fees.

According to European Payments Initiative CEO Martina Weimert, fragmentation has long hindered any major attempt to build a common payment platform within the Old Continent. ENP is now offering a cooperation-based answer, asking other EU-based payment organizations to join the effort as well.

The European Central Bank is also working on its own solution for a common payment tool with the digital euro currency. A few years down the line, the bank-controlled euro wallet might become a complementary payment platform to ENP.

Fubo’s U.S. lineup includes national sports, news and entertainment networks, optional channel packages, local broadcast stations, and regional sports networks. Your exact lineup depends on the plan you choose, any add-ons you buy, and your home location.

This guide organizes a broad verified Fubo channel reference as of October 3, 2026. It also links to Fubo’s live tools for channel, local-station and regional-sports data that can change after publication.

How to read this Fubo channel database

There are three main types of channel lookup. National and specialty networks are mapped to plans and add-ons. Local stations are tied to television markets. Regional sports networks, usually shortened to RSNs, are assigned according to your home ZIP code.

Fubo’s channel finder shows the plans and add-ons associated with a listed network. Local affiliates and regional sports networks use separate location-based tools.

A plan label beside a channel does not necessarily mean every new subscriber can select that plan. Use the directory to understand channel-to-package relationships, then confirm which plans Fubo actually offers to your account and market.

Complete Fubo channel directory

Fubo’s main directory is the broadest source for national, specialty, sports, news, entertainment, international, radio and free ad-supported channels. The most useful fields are the channel name, its plan membership and any add-on membership.

The groups below organize commonly searched and clearly verified networks by purpose. Because carriage and package placement can change, use the live channel finder for the latest channel-to-package mapping.

National sports channels

• ACC Network
• Big Ten Network
• CBS Sports Network
• ESPN
• ESPN2
• ESPNews
• ESPNU
• FOX Sports 1
• FOX Sports 2
• Fubo Sports Network
• NFL Network
• SEC Network
• Tennis Channel

The wider Fubo directory also contains specialty sports services that can depend on plan or add-on, including NBA TV, NHL Network, NFL RedZone, MLB-related services, FOX Soccer Plus, FOX Deportes, ESPN Deportes, beIN Sports, beIN Sports Español, TyC Sports, Fight Network and SportsGrid.

News channels

• ABC News Live
• FOX News
• Africa News
• Cheddar News
• i24NEWS
• additional services mapped to News Plus or Fubo Extra

News-channel membership varies by package. Search a specific network when it is important to your subscription decision.

Entertainment and general-interest channels

• Bravo
• Comedy Central
• Paramount Network
• Nickelodeon
• National Geographic
• Nat Geo Wild
• MTV2
• MTV Classic
• TeenNick
• BET Her
• BET Jams
• BET Soul
• ION

These channels are not all part of the same tier. Some belong to broad base plans, while others are tied to expanded packages such as Fubo Extra.

Spanish-language channels

• beIN Sports Español
• ESPN Deportes
• Estrella TV
• Fubo Latino Network
• FOX Deportes
• Telemundo
• TyC Sports
• Universo

Spanish-language channels can appear across Latino, Latino Plus, International Sports Plus and English-language packages. Check the individual network if you need its exact package assignment.

International channels and packages

• Portuguese Plus programming
• Rai Italia
• TV5 Monde
• International Sports Plus programming
• Zee-family programming listed in the live directory

Free and specialty streams

The directory can also contain free ad-supported feeds, Fubo-owned channels, digital sports streams and radio-style services that do not behave like traditional cable networks. Treat each directory row according to the plan or package shown beside it rather than assuming every entry is part of a paid base plan.

Fubo channels by current plan

If you already know the plan you are considering, use its name as a filter in the master directory. Checking your must-have networks is more useful than comparing raw channel counts.

Pro channel list

Pro is the broad English-language base option. Major national sports networks associated with the standard Fubo lineup include ESPN, ESPN2, CBS Sports Network, FOX Sports 1, FOX Sports 2, NFL Network, ACC Network, Big Ten Network and SEC Network.

Local broadcast affiliates and regional sports networks require separate location checks.

Core channel list

The first question with Core is whether it is available in your area. Where offered, it overlaps heavily with Fubo’s broad English-language lineup, including major sports networks such as ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, FS2, CBS Sports Network and NFL Network.

Elite channel list

Elite expands the standard lineup with additional channel packages. That can add secondary sports, entertainment and news networks such as NBA TV, NHL Network, Nat Geo Wild, MTV2, MTV Classic, TeenNick and BET specialty channels where those package mappings apply.

Ultra channel list

Ultra is another expanded English-language configuration and is available only in select areas. Because it overlaps with Elite in several channel groups, compare the exact package shown to your account rather than assuming that every higher-tier label contains an identical lineup.

Sports + News channel list

Sports + News has the clearest self-contained national lineup. Fubo currently lists these national channels:

Programming from ESPN Unlimited is also integrated into Sports + News. Local programming is available only in participating areas and uses a separate market table.

Latino channel list

Latino is the Spanish-language base plan. Verified examples across Latino and related Spanish-language packages include beIN Sports, beIN Sports Español, ESPN Deportes, Estrella TV, Fubo Latino Network, Telemundo, TyC Sports and Universo.

Latino Plus and International Sports Plus can add more Spanish-language or international sports programming.

Channel access does not guarantee every match from a league or competition. Sports rights can be divided among several broadcasters, so soccer viewers should compare the competition they follow with the official soccer streaming services available in their region.

Complete Fubo add-on channel lists

Add-ons matter when a base plan has most of what you watch but is missing a particular sports, premium, international or specialty group.

Sports add-ons

Expanded news and entertainment add-ons

• Fubo Extra
• News Plus
• Adventure Plus
• Fubo Select

Premium entertainment add-ons

• MGM+
• Paramount+ with SHOWTIME
• Starz
• FOX Nation
• Hallmark+

FOX Nation and Hallmark+ are on-demand services rather than normal linear live-guide channels.

International and language add-ons

• Latino Plus
• Portuguese Plus
• Rai Italia
• TV5 Monde

Package membership can change, so search the live directory by add-on name when you need the latest channel-level mapping.

Complete Fubo local channel list by market

Local television cannot be represented accurately by a single nationwide list of ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC or CW. Each television market has its own affiliates, and Fubo’s local availability differs by market and service.

A call sign is the identifier for an individual local station, such as WABC in New York or KABC in Los Angeles.

Sports + News local channel examples

The Sports + News service has its own local-channel table. These examples come from that specific service and should not be treated as a universal base-plan local lineup:

The Sports + News local lookup also contains CW entries in many markets and notes that independent local channels and local broadcast sports channels can be available in eligible areas.

English base-plan local stations

Fubo maintains a separate local-station database for its English-language base plans. That directory includes ABC, CBS, FOX, CW, MyNetworkTV and independent station rows across U.S. markets.

Use Fubo’s base-plan local-channel search by city or call sign to check the affiliate available in your area.

National fallback feeds

Some areas receive national network feeds instead of a conventional local affiliate. Fubo documents ABC time-zone feeds and FOXNET as examples.

FOXNET carries national FOX programming, but Fubo states that NFL programming is not available on FOXNET.

Complete Fubo regional sports network list

Regional sports networks provide local sports coverage within defined territories. Your home ZIP code determines which RSNs Fubo makes available to your account.

Fubo’s current regional-sports page says RSNs are included with Pro, Core, Elite, Elite with Sports Plus and Ultra. Core and Ultra are available only in select areas.

The expandable full RSN roster is maintained on Fubo’s own page, while the visible current guidance confirms examples such as Space City Home Network, Altitude Sports, MSG and YES Network.

For example, Fubo explains that a Houston Rockets vs. Denver Nuggets game shown nationally and regionally can be blacked out on the national feed in Houston and Denver while local viewers receive Space City Home Network or Altitude Sports instead.

Use Fubo’s ZIP-based regional sports lookup for the full set available to your account.

Channels not listed in Fubo’s current directory

Do not assume a familiar cable network is on Fubo because another live-TV service carries it or because an older lineup article mentions it.

As checked against Fubo’s channel finder on October 3, 2026, no matching entries were found for these high-interest networks:

• TNT
• TBS
• CNN
• Food Network
• HGTV

This is a dated lookup result, not a permanent statement about future carriage. Search the live channel finder again if one of those networks determines your subscription choice.

Channel count alone is also a poor substitute for checking the programming you actually watch. The same principle applies when comparing free and paid streaming services: a smaller lineup with your must-have networks can be more useful than a larger one without them.

For a must-have channel, verify the network first and compare plans second. That avoids choosing a package for its headline channel count only to discover that the network you care about is missing or requires a separate add-on.

I have come to believe that one of the biggest misconceptions about AI is also one of the most expensive: the idea that technology can repair a business that has never streamlined how its processes actually work. AI can accelerate an operation, automate repetitive work, and surface problems at remarkable speed. Give it a fragmented business, however, and you may simply get a faster version of the fragmentation.

The numbers should make business leaders pause. McKinsey’s 2025 global survey found that 88% of respondents said their organizations were using AI in at least one business function, yet only 7% said AI had been fully scaled across the organization. Its research points to workflow redesign as one of the strongest factors associated with financial impact from generative AI.

Why is the gap so large? Look at how many businesses actually operate. A customer arrives through a website. Someone enters the information into a spreadsheet. Another person moves it into an operating platform. Someone updates the website. Finance receives a separate piece of information. An accountant reconciles something later. Every handoff creates another opportunity for delay, duplication, or error. The business may have excellent software at every stage and still have a broken system.

I see this often because my work now sits deep in business operations, although my background is in writing and marketing. I have worked with businesses ranging from one-person organizations to multimillion-dollar operations, and the pattern is remarkably familiar. Companies accumulate tools because each one solves a particular problem. Then they use connectors such as Zapier or Make to force those tools to cooperate.

There is another possibility now. Build the system around the business itself.

Imagine a company running dozens of classes. A student changes classes. A teacher moves to another day. A human makes that decision. The information then needs to travel through the website, operating system, scheduling process, and financial records. In a fragmented setup, people may have to make every downstream change themselves. In a properly designed AI-enabled system, the original decision can trigger the rest of the workflow automatically.

The human remains the architect. AI becomes the operational engine.

That is crucial because automation without oversight simply relocates risk. I build stopgates into systems so a person can see what changed, intervene if something looks wrong, and confirm that the process has reached the intended endpoint. AI can flag an anomaly or carry information across systems. Someone still needs to understand what the business is trying to accomplish.

Research supports the value of this human-machine arrangement. A study of 5,179 customer-support agents found that access to generative AI increased productivity by 14% on average, with particularly large gains among less experienced workers. The technology helped people perform their work. It did not eliminate the need for people to understand the work.

This becomes even more important as a company grows. Growth exposes every loose connection.

Before spending heavily on marketing or customer acquisition, I want a founder to map the entire journey of a customer. How does someone enter the business? Where does their information go? Who acts on it? What reaches the customer? What reaches finance? How does the accountant know what has happened? Where can a human error enter the chain?

Getting the customer and collecting the money are only two moments in a much longer operational journey.

AI gives us an extraordinary opportunity to redesign that journey. McKinsey’s latest research argues that applying AI to isolated tasks leaves substantial value on the table, while reimagined workflows can unlock much larger productivity gains. IBM’s 2026 research also found that only 11% of surveyed technology leaders felt completely prepared for the scale of AI-agent deployment, highlighting how quickly capability can outpace organizational control.

The truly revolutionary AI application for business now has nothing to do with generating another piece of content. The real power lies in the invisible architecture underneath it all, ensuring information moves flawlessly, decisions reach the right leaders instantly, financial records remain immaculate, and employees finally win back their time.

I don’t want AI running a business for people. I want it to remove the administrative friction that prevents people from running their businesses well.

Build the blueprint carefully. Put humans at the right decision points. Let AI handle the legwork. Then growth has somewhere solid to go.
