Cognition Releases November 2026 Security Practices Guide: Starting with the $6.34 Billion Binance Hack
Cognition released a security practices guide reviewing several recent major security incidents: Binance was breached after an engineer's laptop was compromised through a fake interview and a tampered installation package, resulting in the theft of $6.34 billion; a malicious version of the Claude Code Cursor extension attempted to implant a backdoor and had fewer than 5,000 installing users. The guide recommends immediately enabling phishing-resistant MFA, auditing the public attack surface, deploying password managers and ad blockers, and within 30 days onboarding devices into MDM and EDR and locking down browser and editor extensions.
