US military disabled ad tracking on troops’ devices following reports of targeted attacks

US DoD disabled ad tracking on troops' devices after foreign adversaries targeted service members using commercially bought location data.

Per letters shared with Senator Ron Wyden, the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Special Operations Command disabled advertising IDs on iPhones, Android devices, and Windows computers across the federal military enterprise. The protections rolled out earlier in 2026, with the Air Force implementing changes in July, to prevent adversaries from exploiting app-derived location data sold through data brokers. Wyden warned that personal devices brought onto military bases could still expose troops and facilities, and noted the intelligence community and FBI buy such data without warrants.

I Think the Military Commissary Freezers Were Hacked

Refrigeration failures at six-plus US military commissaries prompt speculation of a cyber attack on DeCA's remote monitoring systems; Pentagon acknowledges possible disruption.

The author documents near-simultaneous freezer and refrigeration failures at confirmed installations including Fort Huachuca, F.E. Warren AFB, Fort Irwin and Travis AFB on August 26-27, with freezers entering defrost mode that heated and spoiled food. DeCA's Remote Monitoring Control System controls defrost across roughly 182 locations, and an unverified comment attributed the Fort Huachuca failure to a network issue. Stars and Stripes and Military Times independently reported the multi-base failures, and the Pentagon acknowledged a 'possible refrigeration disruption,' though no evidence of hacking has been confirmed.

Using High-Energy Laser, US Shoots Down Drones Near Mexico Border

The US Army used a high-energy laser system to shoot down drones near the Mexico border, demonstrating new directed-energy weapon capabilities.

The US Army employed a high-energy laser system near the Mexico border to detect, track, and destroy drones. The system is part of a new generation of directed-energy weapons that neutralize targets with a concentrated beam of light. The story covers military defense technology rather than cybersecurity or AI, making it off-topic for a security/AI news dashboard.
