The indictments were only unsealed on Friday, however, with the US Department of Justice (DOJ) saying the hacking campaigns conducted by the charged individuals targeted hundreds of companies and organisations across 135 countries. “We face no greater cyber threat than actors seeking to compromise critical infrastructure, offences which could harm those working at affected plants as well as the citizens who depend on them,” District of Columbia attorney Matthew Graves said....

Is it just because of the camera? Is it because it comes in new, prettier colors? Is it merely because it comes from your preferred ecosystem jailer? Or could it be that, at least sometimes, you buy it just because it’s new? The likes of Apple and Samsung seem to believe that all they need to do is have an event and show you a film with young, happy people skateboarding/dancing/skydiving and taking pictures....

The patches were were part of a group of 19 security notes released by the company about a range of security issues. Three of the vulnerabilities related to log4j and had a CVSS of 10. The vulnerabilities found by Onapsis – dubbed “ICMAD” – allow attackers to execute serious malicious activities on SAP users, business information, and processes, which ultimately compromises unpatched SAP applications. The issues revolve around SAP’s Internet Communication Manager (ICM), a core component of many of their applications....

The latest chip marks the first time that SK Hynix has applied EUV in its DRAM production. Samsung began applying the advanced process in its memory production last year and Micron has said it plans to apply EUV in 2024. EUV equipment is used in the lithography process during chip production where the circuit patterns are transferred onto the wafer. By using EUV, companies can transfer more precise patterns, allowing chips to be designed smaller and for more of them to be drawn on the wafer....

Especially as it floods TV and the web with its heart-shaped logo and its strident commitment to humankind. Sometimes, though, love can be a little twisted. Over the last year, the vast majority of people were flying for anything but business. Sometimes for vacation, sometimes to see friends and relatives they hadn’t seen since before COVID-19 began to do its worst. Yet if you want to fly Southwest, comparing fares online is a little harder than with most other airlines....

That description is apt in more ways than one. Like the iPhone, there is a slick quality to many elements of Squarespace that is user friendly, especially to people with limited technical acumen, such as picking pleasing templates for blogging that provide an immediately attractive visual feel. And similar to Apple products, the veneer of ease can produce a false sense of security. There are times when Squarespace won’t function the way you’d wish, and when it can cause frustration with functions that suddenly break, with little recourse except to be patient till it’s remedied....

While other types of mice get lighter and more sensitive or gained flashier lighting and multiple connection methods, most MMO/MOBA mice have remained kind of…stuck. The G600 Logitech sells today is basically identical to the one it launched in 2012. Most manufacturers seem to think the players that enjoy these button-laden mice are content with, at most, minor tweaks to decade-old offerings. SteelSeries is betting they’re wrong. Its new Aerox 9 Wireless attempts to marry the ample button selection of an MMO/MOBA mouse with the weight reduction, RGB lighting, enhanced wireless, and improved switches that have saturated the gaming mouse space in the dozen years since MMO/MOBA mice came onto the scene....

The SwitchBot Hub 2 is an unassuming little device with a display that shows the current room temperature and humidity. It connects different Bluetooth SwitchBot devices to the cloud to enable things like controlling them remotely from the SwitchBot app on your mobile device, setting automations, and more. It also has two buttons you can program to control different SwitchBot devices, like a plug or the SwitchBot Curtain. Most smart home hubs are plastic devices that sit on a shelf and have no other purpose aside from connecting other smart home devices, so it is nice to see SwitchBot make a hub with other functionalities, buttons, and a temperature display....

Data Stories was one of several new features announced Tuesday by Tableau, the Salesforce-owned data visualization platform. The company also introduced Tableau Cloud, the latest iteration of Tableau online – the cloud-based version of its software designed for enterprise customers. While Tableau still offers self-managed services, its focus on Tableau Cloud shows how the enterprise has moved largely to SaaS products.
