Where published signals are happening
Every marker is a published Human-Level signal with its sources, timestamps, and how precisely its location is known. The Observatory shows what has been reviewed and published, not everything that is happening.

Updates are checked periodically; new signals appear within minutes of being published, after editorial review or an automated check. Live streaming is not configured on this host.
Coverage: 23 signals: 22 reviewed by editors, 1 published automatically after an AI check. 4 sources are monitored for new items; each is checked before it is published. This is a curated selection, not a complete record of global events.

Fireworks AI says hackers reached some customers' incomplete model weights and datasets, after an October intrusion via a third-party cloud provider
Fireworks AI, a model-hosting provider, updated its October security bulletin on 9 Nov 2026. It now says that for certain customers 'a subset of incomplete model weights and datasets were accessed', and that for a limited set of accounts it found impact to secrets, datasets and incomplete models. Billing information was also affected; payment card numbers were not. The attacker reached Fireworks' development machines on 24 Oct through a third-party cloud provider that hosted them, which had its own incident on 23 Oct, and ran an unauthorised workload. Fireworks says the evidence 'indicates links to a cybercriminal threat actor group, which is financially motivated', and refers to 'illicit routing gateways, known as "LLMJacking"'. It says Inference, Training SDK and Nexus, which are zero-data-retention by default, were not affected. The investigation is ongoing. Press claims about affected customers and the number of files are single-source and not used here.

How this map works
What appears
Signals an editor has reviewed and published, and items from monitored official sources that passed an automated AI check, which are labelled “Published automatically”. Each one cites at least one public source, or is labelled as editorial analysis with its methodology. Withdrawn signals are removed.
Locations
We use the least precise location that is still useful. Dashed markers are approximate (region or country) and do not mark an exact site. Signals without an established location are listed but not pinned. We do not map personal locations.
Timestamps
Event time, source publication time, and the time we retrieved a source are shown separately. Missing values are shown as unknown, never guessed.
Freshness and updates
The page checks for new data every minute. Source freshness is reported on its own: a working update check does not mean the sources are current. New signals appear after review and a site release.
No scores
Markers do not encode severity or confidence. Evidence is described qualitatively (for example “single source” or “multiple independent sources”) with a written rationale.
