A malvertising operation dubbed SourTrade is making victims’ browsers build the final Windows executable themselves, using a legitimate Bun runtime as its base instead of serving one complete malicious file from a fixed URL. Confiant, which detailed the campaign on July 23, 2026, said it has operated since late 2024 and impersonated TradingView, Solana, and Luno to target retail traders and cryptocurrency investors across 12 countries in 25 languages. Its landing pages fingerprint visitors, showing suspected researchers and bots an empty page while selected targets receive a convincing copy of the impersonated service. The defense against that is the ordinary…
More than once, Leonardo threw up a generic error pop-up with no explanation of how to fix the problem. You’re forced to dismiss the message before doing anything else, which feels like hitting a dead end before trying to troubleshoot yourself or looking up the error code in Leonardo.Connectivity, luckily, is super simple and seamless. The Romeo connects to your computer over Wi-Fi instead of Bluetooth, which sounds like a minor detail until you’ve wrestled with the quirks that Bluetooth can sometimes pose (looking at you, Design Space). During my testing of the Explore 5, I’d occasionally lose my Bluetooth…
Illinois has chosen to move before Washington. Gov. JB Pritzker signed the Artificial Intelligence Safety Measures Act on July 6, 2026, adding transparency, accountability and audit requirements for the largest artificial intelligence developers. The law applies to companies generating more than $500 million in annual revenue and building models trained with massive computing power. It also requires annual independent audits, which gives the law its biggest assertion of accountability. The Illinois legislation follows similar laws in California and New York, with lawmakers hoping that the combined market power of those states will create a de facto national standard in the…
The phone rings. There’s a sense of dread. Friend or foe? Scam or no? NordVPN — known more for encrypting internet traffic and hiding IP addresses — has launched an Android app named HangUp that screens incoming calls for potential scammers and telemarketers. The app is free to everyone. You don’t need a paid NordVPN account. HangUp uses call protection technology from Hiya, which has its own mobile app to block spam and fraud calls and detect AI deepfakes. HangUp also can scan incoming text messages by incorporating NordVPN’s Message Protection, which the company launched in June. HangUp app customers…
HPC AI infrastructure is no longer a parallel track to traditional computing. They are merging into a unified computing foundation that the supercomputing world has been building toward for years. The same infrastructure once reserved for national laboratory modeling and simulation has become the foundation for enterprise AI factories, and agents are already running scientific simulations autonomously, said Trish Damkroger (pictured), senior vice president and general manager for HPC and AI infrastructure solutions at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. “Those things that we call supercomputers are now the exact same infrastructure that you need for modeling and simulation that you need…
There are over 32,000 entry-level PMET jobs available for Singapore’s fresh graduates How is it possible that a graduate, who is the top of his cohort from a local university, equipped with four internships at companies like DBS Bank, attended 10 career fairs and networking events, and sent out more than 300 resumes in the finance sector, still hasn’t landed a full-time job? The question is especially puzzling given the latest figures from Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower (MOM), which show there were 32,800 entry-level professional, managerial, executive and technician (PMET) vacancies available for new graduates. Each year, around 25,000 to…
Companies religiously collect Voice of Customer (VoC) data, filing it away. The gap between listening and acting is where brands are losing customers. Companies claim to listen to their customers- ask them how, and they’ll point to a survey. Maybe an NPS score. A customer support ticket. A quarterly review of online ratings. That’s not a Voice of Customer program. That’s a data collection habit with no feedback loop attached. Voice of Customer (VoC) is the system process of capturing what customers actually think, feel, and need- and then routing that intelligence into every relatable decision. The distinction sounds subtle.…
Samsung might finally be ready to stop recycling the same main camera hardware on its standard Galaxy S phones, which it introduced with the Galaxy S22. GalaxyClub reports that some Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27+ prototypes are being tested with a new 50MP Sony sensor for the main camera. Such a move would break Samsung’s long-running preference for its own ISOCELL hardware in the primary cameras of Galaxy S phones, even if the resolution remains unchanged. What could change with the main camera? The Galaxy S27 and S27+ are still expected to use a 50MP main camera, but megapixels only…
Swati KhandelwalJul 24, 2026Vulnerability / Enterprise Security Researchers H0j3n and Aniq Fakhrul published a working exploit on July 24 that lets a low-privileged Active Directory user obtain a certificate for a Domain Controller and authenticate as that machine. They codenamed the flaw Certighost. Because Domain Controller accounts carry directory replication rights, the resulting Kerberos credential can retrieve the krbtgt secret through DCSync. Microsoft patched the Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) issue ten days earlier as CVE-2026-54121. Microsoft classed the flaw as improper authorization and assigned it a CVSS score of 8.8. Exploitation requires network access and a domain account,…
GeekWire File Photo Amazon is closing its San Francisco AGI site as part of the layoffs it made this week in its artificial general intelligence organization, but said its frontier model research lab will continue. A company spokesperson confirmed the news of the site closure, which was first reported by The Information. Amazon’s frontier model research work will carry on under Pieter Abbeel, a UC Berkeley professor who joined Amazon in 2024 when the company licensed the technology and hired the team from Covariant, the robotics startup he co-founded. The AGI Lab was founded in December 2024 and initially built…
