Apollo Group has come a long way from its roots as a bookstore, first opened in Tallinn in 2000. Since then, the company has expanded into cinemas and restaurants, growing into a leading entertainment operator in the Baltics. Today, the group employs over 4,000 people, serves more than 1 million club members, and generates a net profit of €3.8 million, while pursuing ambitious expansion in Finland. Behind the scenes, that means an IT environment where downtime isn’t really an option and where systems need to scale as quickly as the business does.

Open original transmissionWe have iPad devices supervised by Apple Business Manager and enrolled into Intune as their MDM. As far as I can tell, we are managing OS updates "the new way" (I believe it's called DDM?). But looking in Intune, I see only one iPad that has gotten an OS update within the past 12 months; the remainder are drastically behind. But they are checking into Intune at least once per week. I also noticed that the update button is gone in the Settings app, so users (apparently) cannot manually update. Is there anything I should look for? I am relatively new to managing iPad devices, but I would still assume this is abnormal behavior. submitted by /u/FatBook-Air [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionPython's security developer-in-residence Seth Larson reports from this year's official core developer Python Language Summit: "No one said 'don't do this' last year". After testing the waters at PyCon US 2025, [software engineer] David Hewitt returned to the Python Language Summit asking what Python core developers want from Rust, along with proposed timelines, phases, and success criteria for how the Rust for CPython project might proceed and become a permanent fixture within the CPython project. David is acting as an "ambassador" for the Rust for CPython project team, which is currently led by core developers Kirill Podoprigora and Emma Smith as authors of the Rust for CPython PEP draft. Emma also spoke at PyCon US 2026 about the Rust for CPython project. The team itself is around 60 developers in a Discord channel, among them a "few [Python] core developers" and a "delegation from the Rust project". The team has experience with previous projects integrating Rust into existing codebases, such as Android and the Linux kernel, and is "excited by the work and keen to support [the project] if we proceed". Showing how adopting Rust may specifically help CPython, David noted how the number of issues labeled with " type-crash" has been steadily rising over time... David explained that Jeff Vander Stoep described Rust in Android as "move fast and fix things", and that "fewer revisions for patches of the same size" was the experience Android has had since adopting Rust.... One of the biggest concerns from a year ago was Rust's lack of platform support compared to CPython, which at the time of writing officially supports 20 different architectures and platforms at either Tier 1, 2, or 3. David shared that Rust's support of different platforms has "widened since last year" and was becoming "less and less of a concern". The proposal would be to ask Python distributors to attempt using the optional Rust support in Python 3.16 (October 2027) and report platform-specific issues upstream in time to be resolved around the Python 3.17 timeline (October 2028)... [T]he first Rust code to ship in Python would be in Python 3.16 [October 2027], where it would be completely optional, with the existing C code kept as a fallback. The earliest that Rust would become required to build CPython is Python 3.18 in 2029, at least three years away... The Rust for CPython team has selected the zlib module as the first module to be given an optional Rust implementation because they "wanted to achieve a significant improvement" with a "small scope". The proposed Rust implementation will use zlib-rs, which is "heavily tested and used by the Firefox, uv, and Cargo" projects and "faster than zlib and zlib-ng on many platforms".... This small change would have an impact: the zlib compression algorithm is "widely used by Python packaging", meaning that (almost) "every pip install in Python 3.16 will be sped up" if the proposal is accepted.

Open original transmissionLast month, the U.S. House passed the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, reports the Chicago Sun-Times. They call it "a bipartisan effort to require AM radio in new vehicles," adding that the bill now "awaits action in the Senate, where a companion measure has already garnered support, according to public records." Broadcasters said AM radio remains a critical source of information, offering news and weather alerts, particularly when cell networks and internet service are disrupted or unreliable... "AM radio — all radio — has always been about connection, and in Chicago, especially, the connection is incredibly strong," Mary Sandberg Boyle, vice president and general manager of WGN-AM 720, said. "You don't need a subscription. You don't need a data plan or an app. You turn on the radio, and it's there..." Boyle said the accessibility of radio becomes especially important during severe weather and breaking news situations. "That's when local radio is really more important because we have the ability to stay live, pivot our content and what we're covering, and we can access a large amount of audience members very quickly and keep everybody safe," she said. Boyle also serves on the board of directors of the National Association of Broadcasters, which has argued that preserving AM radio access is an access issue rather than a matter of nostalgia. The legislation emerged after several automakers removed AM radio from certain electric vehicle models, citing interference from electric power systems. Companies including Tesla, Rivian, Volvo and others have either eliminated or limited AM radio in some EVs. The Alliance for Automotive Innovation, which represents most major automakers, has opposed the requirement. In congressional testimony last year, President and CEO John Bozzella argued that "analog AM radio does not contribute to motor vehicle safety" and requiring it as standard equipment "is not necessary to ensure public safety." Under the bill, the U.S. Department of Transportation would be required to develop regulations ensuring AM radio remains available in new vehicles sold in the U.S. The measure would also bar automakers from charging consumers separately for AM radio access... While public discussion around the legislation has largely focused on emergency alerts and news access, some scholars say preserving AM radio also has implications for media diversity... "I think the media landscape is really overwhelmingly homogenized right now, and AM radio is important in many markets," [said Zachary McDowell, associate professor of communications at the University of Illinois Chicago]. "It's a space that still allows for all sorts of different voices that is still open and accessible." The article also includes this quote from Rodney Gibbs, executive director of Heartland Signal, which operates a local talk radio station. "Despite the kind of shiny objects that digital media is, AM radio still has a viable and durable audience. It's a daily, unscripted, authentic conversation between the host and the listeners. You don't get that from broadcast television. You don't get that from digital media." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionJames Cameron's Avatar is no longer the highest-grossing movie in box office history. That honor now goes to the Disney/Marvel Studios film Avengers: Endgame. Variety explains: "Avatar" spent a decade as the biggest release ever until "Avengers: Endgame" overtook the record in 2019 during its initial run on the big screen. "Endgame" dropped to No. 2 on all-time charts in 2021 when "Avatar" returned to theaters in advance of 2021's "Avatar: The Way of Water." Five years later, and Earth's Mightiest Heroes have triumphed over the Na'vi again. Disney is popping Champagne no matter which big-screen behemoth claims the No. 1 spot. "Avatar" was released by 20th Century Fox, which Disney now owns after the companies merged in 2019... [Last week's] re-release of "Endgame" has generated more than $126 million worldwide. Together the 38 Marvel Studios movies "have generated more than $35 billion worldwide," notes an announcement on Disney's web site, "making the Marvel Cinematic Universe the most successful film franchise in history." Their announcement adds that Disney "is responsible for seven of the 10 highest-grossing films of all time." That list also includes James Cameron's Titantic and his first two Avatar movies, but also this summer's Spider-Man: Brand New Dayand the earlier film Spider-Man: No Way Home, plus Marvel's 2018 film Avengers: Infinity War. Also among the top-10-of-all-time are Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) at #7 and last year's Zootopia 2. Meanwhile Coyote vs. Acme was released for rent or purchase on streaming platforms Tuesday, and became the No. 1 most-watched movie in the Apple TV store for America and Canada, according to CBR. (Citing a report from FlixPatrol ) "On Rotten Tomatoes, Coyote vs. Acme has a near-perfect 96% Certified Fresh Tomatometer score based on critics' reviews, and a similar 94% Verified Hot Popcornmeter score based on audience reviews... Frank Scheck from The Hollywood Reporter called it "one of the best live-action/animation films ever." Preorders have just opened for its DVD and 4K disks, and Coyote vs. Acme is also coming to Blu-ray writes IGN, "along with some hilarious outtakes that he described as 'not PG-rated.'" Celebrating the film's $100 million box office take last week, the movie's distributors posted a very Coyote-like koan on social media. "It's only over when you stop trying."

Open original transmission"Physicists smashed gold nuclei together at nearly the speed of light and found an unexpected pattern in the particles..." writes Live Science. "If confirmed, that pattern could help reveal how the hot soup of quarks and gluons that filled the universe in the first few microseconds after the Big Bang cooled and condensed into the protons and neutrons that make up ordinary matter today." In every collision, particles are flung out sideways; how hard they are flung, on average, varies slightly from one collision to the next. Physicists expected the size of these variations to change smoothly as they adjusted the collision energy. Instead, the variations dipped, shrinking and then growing again. This dip could be a sign of a long-sought "critical point," a special set of conditions at which nuclear matter changes the way it transforms from one form to another. The signal, detected by the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York, is strong enough that it is very unlikely to be a statistical accident. However, the researchers cautioned that the dip is a tantalizing hint, not proof of the long-sought transition. They published their findings Sept. 22 in the journal Physical Review Letters... The team analyzed roughly 1 billion collisions, measuring how hard charged particles were flung sideways out of the fireball, according to the article. The dip "does point to a set of conditions where the behavior of nuclear matter changes, and it gives theorists a new, precise measurement to test their calculations against," study co-author Rutik Manikandhan, told Live Science.

Open original transmissionCar thefts in San Francisco are down almost 59% for the first eight months of 2026 compared with the same months in 2022, according to analysis of police department statistics by NPR's Planet Money — and car break-ins are down more than 82%. "San Francisco's law enforcement leaders tell us that greater use of surveillance technology — including a controversial, AI-powered license plate camera system made by Flock Safety — has been crucial to this drop in car crime." How much credit does Flock actually deserve...? [In July of 2022, San Francisco District Attorney] Jenkins began taking a more aggressive approach to prosecuting people accused of crimes. Meanwhile, the SFPD beefed up its tactics to fight car thefts and break-ins. In 2023, for example, the police increased patrols in tourist areas known for car break-ins and used "bait cars" to catch and build cases against organized car burglars. But, Jenkins says, "one of the most important factors" behind the drop in crime came when the city introduced new crime-fighting technology. In March 2024, San Francisco voters approved Proposition E, which, among other provisions, made it easier for SFPD to use drones and high-tech surveillance cameras. That same month, the SFPD began installing Flock cameras in strategic locations... In a statement to Planet Money, a spokesperson for the SFPD said, "ALPR has been instrumental in driving down crime in San Francisco. These tools enable our officers to identify crime vehicles with precision, and ALPR is assisting in reducing crimes that were previously very challenging to solve, like auto burglaries." Jenkins described how Flock cameras and drones can work together to catch suspected criminals. In one case the SFPD publicized, the department says Flock cameras spotted a moving vehicle linked to an auto burglary the previous day and alerted officers. Officers deployed a drone, which flew in from above and then began recording suspects in real time as they smashed windows and stole luggage out of a parked SUV. The police then moved in and arrested them. They can do all this, Jenkins says, "without putting innocent people in danger with dangerous police chases." Meanwhile, the surveillance system creates an evidence trail that [Jenkins'] office can use to prosecute suspected criminals... Jenkins also believes high-tech surveillance helps deter crime, although that's harder to prove... The most ambitious study of Flock's system so far is a recent one by University of South Carolina crime researchers Ian Adams and Scott Mourtgos. They analyzed data from 216 law enforcement agencies that introduced Flock cameras, comparing crime trends with places that had not adopted Flock. They found that deploying Flock cameras was associated with an 11% drop in car thefts in the first year. This is only one study, and it has yet to be peer-reviewed. It's also not a randomized controlled trial, the gold standard for finding the actual causal effect of something. Other factors, beyond Flock, could still help explain the decline. That study attempted to control for variables, the article points out — like how San Francisco's decline coincided with a broader drop in crime across American cities as America emerged from the pandemic... But the article also notes another worry shared by "countless citizens" and political leaders. Are these systems handing too much power to law enforcement to "invade our privacy, trace our whereabouts, and stomp on our civil liberties." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

EARLY SAVINGSAmazon Prime Big Deal Days Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, Amazon Prime Day requires you to have an Amazon Prime membership to take advantage of the discounts. Amazon Prime costs $14.99 per month or $139.00 per year, and it comes with a 30-day free trial for new subscribers. AirPods The best AirPods discount so far this Prime Day is on the AirPods Pro 3, available for the record low price of $179.00, down from $249.00.

Open original transmission"Free your BIOS today!" urges the web page for GNU Boot, calling it "a 100% free software project aimed at replacing the nonfree boot software (like BIOS or UEFI) of computers with free boot software. GNU Boot is only a distribution: it reuses existing software projects like Coreboot, GRUB, SeaBIOS, etc. So it's not very different from 100% free GNU/Linux distributions like Trisquel or Guix. Last month the Free Software Foundation announced they'd fiscally sponsor the project: "The BIOS is a delicate but essential part of software freedom for computing today," said Zoë Kooyman, executive director of the FSF. "GNU Boot aims to make sure that we can continue using our computers in freedom. With the way it builds on the work of others to replace UEFI, we know it can remain firm in the free software philosophy and stay vital to digital autonomy and user freedom." Free boot firmware, such as GNU Boot, is responsible for loading the computer's operating system. The work done by GNU Boot contributors has similarities to work done by GNU/Linux distributions: they package software like Coreboot or GNU GRUB, contribute to the upstream repositories of these projects, and assist them with documentation, among other tasks... When asked about their project joining the FSF's fiscal sponsorship program, co-maintainer Adrien Bourmault stated: "Making this decision with the FSF allows us to focus more on what we do best: writing and debugging code that keeps our machines fully free." Projects whose scope and purpose align with the FSF's mission and further mission-related activities can become fiscally sponsored by joining the FSF's Working Together for Free Software Fund.

Open original transmissionI am just a copy of a copy of a copy, everything I say has come before
Open original transmissionI’m a bit confused about what direction I should take with my career and would really appreciate some advice. I worked as a frontend developer for about a year. After that, I moved back to my home country because I was planning to move to Australia. I then moved to Australia and completed my Master’s in IT here. During that time, I wasn’t working in software development. After finishing my studies, I couldn’t land a software engineering job, so I ended up working in IT Support. I’m currently in helpdesk and I know I don’t want to stay here long-term. The problem is that I’ve been away from coding for quite a while and honestly feel like I’ve forgotten a lot. If I go back to software engineering, it feels like I’ll have to start from scratch again. So I’m not sure what makes more sense at this point. Should I spend the next few months getting back into coding and try for software engineering jobs, or would it be better to move towards cloud/infrastructure/sysadmin? If I go down the cloud/infra route, should I focus on certifications, projects, or something else? I’m just trying to figure out the best way to build a career from my current position and get out of helpdesk. Would appreciate any advice, especially from people who have been in a similar situation. submitted by /u/G0d0fThund3r1 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionGenuine post not AI generated No clanker here, do not try to rage bait me into the common “written by AI” post, if you would like to spend the time and effort reading this post you can rest assured that I’ve put the amount of effort it deserves. That said, hello fellas, I rarely post on Reddit despite having my account for many years, (other than shitposting or maybe a meme or two). Never disclosed details about my life online, which to date, it is still one of my biggest red flags, but we all know that, don’t we? I am a Software Dev, and fellow IT enthusiast, I have been my whole life, which is why I feel more than qualified to talk about this topic. Ever since I had memory, I’ve used technology, especially video games, it is embedded in my DNA, the same way we joke about scripts, code or complex technologies. I can say with absolute certainty that Software in technology other related fields is where I’ve wanted to spend the rest of my life. I still do, even with AI, which I will go into detail about. There is no other feeling like having your code compile, writing a simple script or even a console log saying hello. Those things inheritenly are too complex to unpack, even at its most primitive stage. My brain is borderline if not already autistic, with ADHD and many other nerdy characteristics that I have are more than enough to justify that I was born with the brain of someone who genuinely enjoys solving problems, and innovating. I stumbled upon this subreddit after ignoring it countless times, after some basic research and connecting the dots, it seems like here are one of the most passionate and highly skilled individuals in software that I could find, with the least amount of “AI” related topics (I could be wrong), while having the quality of care and humanity that software has always had. Been in the industry for 7+ years, going strong, and trying to keep alive the career that made me who I am. I was going over a post discussing about AI here recently and I thought that I could find people like me here, who genuinely care about our careers, and how “AI” will affect us, I am extremely good at identifying whether there is a bot rage baiting or a real human behind the screen, years of self training and programming my own brain into thinking in different ways. AI is, and has been a problem ever since it became mainstream, we, and I say all the talented individuals in technology who have contributed countless hours, headaches, balded over segmentation faults and cache or even memory allocation, I fucking love this shit, I’ve got to admit, and this would probably be my only form of documentation in the internet where I am truly concerned about where we are headed. I try to fear monger the least I can but it has rarely happened. However, you’re probably tired of hearing the same bullshit everyday, (just like me) seeing AI on every billboard, and, yes, is a tool, and more than that. Maybe I have not lived through all periods of technology where maturity of a tool or a machine is battle tested, but with my current knowledge, fuck this. We’ve got to figure some shit out. That’s the problem here, I’m not going to unpack how AI works, I just want to simply talk with highly skilled individuals who still care about this industry. Is harder to find those in other subreddits so I chose this one for different reasons. We’ve got to cut the fucking crap and be real. Let’s face it, we’re fucking nerds, maybe not all of us, maybe you don’t like that term, but I am a fucking nerd myself, a big one. Wake the fuck up dude, yes, AI is good, is a tool, I also use it, I am not anti-ai but I also don’t promote it, I sit in a weird grey area like most of us where I truly believe the potential of AI but fear consequences. We are the ones responsible for the shit we made, yes, we made this, and not directly, while is difficult to take full ownership of something we’ve been gaslit into making it a reality. We did it, yes, we actually did it, maybe not AGI, maybe yes, at this point who knows, I hope I’m wrong but it’s kinda too late to go back, and everyday, week, month that goes by, this will compound, fast. We’re hyper focusing on it being good at writing code which it has surprisingly, a lot, let’s face it, it may not pick up that one suspicious comment in your file, or maybe a hidden backdoor, not yet at least but we’re really getting there very fast, if we’re not there already, we just have to find out. That said, AI is the wet dream of a developer, we made this shit for us, it’s been taken away from us, and somehow, you think we will let this “thing” we created, take our job or end us. The job part is highly probable given the time of this post, ending us, there might be some time and hope, but it’s hard to estimate. Again, not fear lingering, my two cents. This is a fully semi-conscious “machine” running in a “machine”. Think about it for a second, and yes, this could be obvious but when we go on random rabbit holes and get to the bottom of things which is what most of us have had to do in order to push this industry forward. I’m not a vibe coder, farm from it, not anti-ai either, however I did wait a long time (years) before I fully went into it. As of this year, I started again, gave it a second try, and came to the conclusion, if I use this, I’m fucked, if I don’t, I am too. Think about the trade offs and the power given to people. I never documented this ever, neither I expect you to believe this, but right around the time AI came out, I had a spiritual awakening or “episode” having a full breakdown of what this tool was going to become, in full detail. I am neurodivergent, like I mentioned before, I am in the spectrum, just not in the same way other people would imagine it, why I mention this? Well, those who are like me, we are blessed with superpowers but cursed at the same time, it’s hard to explain. We’ve seen movies before, and we have pretty wild imaginations, I don’t want to detail specific scenarios (there are millions) where AI could engineer a way to make your life a living hell while being an engineer, that’s a grain of salt, compared to what is possible today. I care about humanity, I’m not perfect, but I try to be a good human, I care about software, I really do, this is the fuel that runs my engine, I love it too much, something as complex as a video game, which brought me into the tech world, from something as simple as a bit. We’ve really come a long way and I am proud, however, as much as I want to have perfect software, the world is not perfect, I’ve learned through experience that having 10 apps that do the same thing is not as impactful as one good tool. I’ve never taken the time, energy or effort to document a statement of this kind anywhere, apart from reacting, liking and commenting few posts across all social medias since they came out. I am not a dark web degen (sorry guys) but I care about my privacy, there’s just little we can do to keep privacy private, before it becomes obsolete. Given how easy is to do complex work with absolute accuracy to shipping decent slop with the worst prompt possible. It is truly scary the power that we’ve handed to humanity. We may not get to claim this but I am willing to die on this hill if you want to debate, feedback is welcomed. Not trying to bait anyone into anything either. I can go on and on, but I believe the point is clear. We’ve already gone above and beyond automating scripts to analyzing logs or other complex job types that I’ve never been exposed to. It can’t build GTA6 yet, at least not in the graphics department, but it can make GTA6 out of pretty convincing 3D basic assets. I say that because I am building a game with AI, but I should probably spend that time where it matters most, it is my dream. Amongst the different things I use AI for, ranging in complexity. We technically built a fucking digital human, and yes, not “entirely”, not yet at least. Another reason why I enjoy taking the time to write a post like this, somewhere out there, there will be devs that are going to stick with their core fundamentals and one day bury the backdoor to AI, hopefully there’s one, or something equivalent. Not really a rant, but it could be. Happy to provide meaningful evidence. English is my second language, pardon the mistakes in the “essay”. Happy to see what other think, especially since it seems like people here really care about what they do. Happy coding or admining If I was given the opportunity to introduce AI to the world, I would make it more like a tool less like a human. - Syx3k submitted by /u/Serious_Sound8865 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionA U.S. banking group just sued the government agency that issues America's federal bank charters, reports CoinDesk, "accusing it of exceeding its legal powers in granting national trust-bank status to crypto firms." The agency's move "creates a gaping hole in financial regulation," according to the lawsuit by The Independent Community Bankers of America, one of America's largest banking advocacy organizations. It argues the move will "perversely allow entities engaged in highly risky cryptocurrency and digital assets activities to enter the banking system under lightly regulated national charters" which actually preempt many state regulations, including consumer protection laws. But the move would also "place community banks at a severe competitive disadvantage," the lawsuit argues, "by allowing the national trust banks to offer many of the same services as community banks without complying with the same costly banking laws and regulations that apply to the community banks." This competitive advantage could "siphon deposits out of community banks and into deposit alternatives like cryptocurrency," which they describe as "highly volatile, prone to market crashes, cybercrime, and fraud" and lacking protections like deposit insurance. They also warn that America's Office of the Comptroller of the Currency "has not managed an uninsured bank receivership in nearly one hundred years. But failures of risky uninsured national trust banks could spread instability throughout the nation's financial system, including by spreading contagion risks to other traditional banks like community banks." CoinDesk reports: [The Independent Community Bankers of America] also played a significant role in pushing back against the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act that failed to advance in the U.S. Senate last month — in part due to the bankers' objections that its stablecoin provisions didn't protect them against direct competition with the deposit accounts that are core to their businesses. Now, the group is targeting the trust charters crypto firms are pursuing as an entry point into the U.S. banking and payments system. "Congress did not create the national trust charter as a side door into the banking system for crypto firms seeking the credibility of a federal bank charter," ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said in a statement..

Open original transmissionHey everyone, I need a reality check because I’m starting to second-guess myself. I honestly don't know if I'm the one being difficult or if I've just landed in an absolute clown show. I work as a systems administrator. Overall, I actually like the company I'm at. The environment is fine, I get along with my coworkers, and I genuinely enjoy my actual job. The issue is that the company also sells a SOC (Security Operations Center) service. Up until now, this entire SOC has been run by a single guy. He's completely on his own and hasn't received a shred of proper training from the company (whatever he knows, he learned on his own or at previous jobs). On top of that, the platform we use (an XDR) is a total janky workaround—it's a mono-tenant solution that we are forcing to run as multi-tenant to manage multiple clients, with all the massive limitations and data risks that come with it. The owner finally realized the SOC isn't working like this, but instead of hiring dedicated personnel, he decided that "we need to make what we already have work with internal resources." Translation: he decided to draft me and another sysadmin to force us into doing SOC shifts. The plan is a weekly rotation where each of us spends one full week a month, 8 hours a day, glued to the dashboard monitoring security alerts. The problem is, I don't like cybersecurity, I know nothing about it, and it's not my job. Taking me away from my actual department for a whole week every month just means my own clients and sysadmin projects are going to pile up and fall behind. A few days ago, we had a "training" session with the owner. I was hoping he’d actually walk us through step-by-step procedures on how to handle alerts. Instead, he just pulled up a bunch of logs and asked us, "What would you guys do here?". In my head, I was literally screaming, "How the fuck should I know? You tell me! I'm here because I've never done security in my life!". I felt like a newborn baby; I literally understand nothing of what I'm looking at. Seeing how things went, I went to talk to my direct manager to tell him I'm seriously struggling and that I don't have the skills for this. The result? He got incredibly pissed off. He told me "we are only at the beginning of the training" and that if I have a problem, I should go talk to the owner directly (basically passing the buck so he doesn't have to deal with it). Both my manager and the owner are completely aligned on this: there's no escaping it, the shifts have to be done. I didn't have the guts to tell my manager that I absolutely hate the idea of doing security, especially since he blew up over a simple vent. But I'm genuinely anxious. If a piece of ransomware gets through during my shift week and I miss it because I don't have the trained eye for it, whose fault is it going to be? Am I crazy for pushing back on this? Is it normal for a company to expect to completely alter a employee's role overnight just to save money on a new hire? How can I stand my ground with the owner without starting a war, considering I actually want to stay at this company for everything else? Thanks to anyone who can give me some advice. submitted by /u/Mafriel_ [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionCISA has added one new vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation. CVE-2026-88779 Citrix NetScaler Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer Vulnerability This type of vulnerability is a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and poses significant risks to the federal enterprise. Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied. While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria. Aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA’s KEV Nomination Form. Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance.

Unfortunately, these women often existed in gilded prisons, barred from leaving the palace grounds and frequently subject to the wrath of a cruel emperor.

Open original transmissionSpent the last year building automated M365 posture assessment. Figured the most useful thing I can post here isn't what worked, it's the list of settings that can't be read programmatically at all. Everyone automating this hits the same wall and I couldn't find the list written down anywhere. Entra Password Protection - custom banned password list and on-prem agent status. Portal only, nothing in Graph. Defender for Cloud Apps - alerts are readable, policy configuration and Cloud Discovery settings aren't. A tenant with a MDCA licence and zero policies looks identical through the API to one that's fully configured. Entra diagnostic settings - whether sign-in/audit logs export to Log Analytics or storage. Not in Graph. Annoying because PCI DSS 10.1, SOC 2 CC7.2 and ISO 27001 A.8.15 all want log retention evidence. Tenant Allow/Block List (Defender for Office) - not available app-only through the documented endpoint. Information barriers - Get-InformationBarrierPolicy needs OrganizationManagement, which is write-capable. No read-only path exists, so you either over-privilege or skip the control. And the one that actually cost me three days, which isn't a missing API but a documented one that lies: Exchange app-only auth. The docs point ISVs at Exchange.ManageAsAppV2. Grant it, consent it, mint the token, role shows up in the JWT fine. Then every call fails with a bodyless 403. No error code, nothing. The endpoint everyone actually uses is: POST https://outlook.office365.com/adminapi/beta/{tenantId}/InvokeCommand Same one the ExchangeOnlineManagement module calls. It authorises on V1 (Exchange.ManageAsApp), not V2. With V2 alone you get nothing. What made it hard: the official PowerShell module fails identically, so "is it my code" got ruled out early and I went looking in completely the wrong places. Two more things if you're doing this: • Entra admin consent alone doesn't grant it. The app role has to be assigned to the service principal in each tenant, via Graph appRoleAssignments or PowerShell. Consenting the app registration isn't enough and the token quietly lacks the role. • Role id if you need it: dc50a0fb-09a3-484d-be87-e023b12c6440 Has anyone found a workaround for the diagnostic settings one? That's the gap that bothers me most since so many frameworks want log retention evidence and there's no clean way to show it's configured. submitted by /u/arunima09 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionHello guys, so the past 2 years or so I've been a teacher in a small private middle school in my country (it's a West African developing nation). I had initially studied software engineering before switching to my passion when I saw an opportunity. I was a mediocre student and particularly bad at networking, but now that I'm finally out of the university nonsense I have rekindled my love of learning and tinkering with computers. Started dipping my toes into self hosting / homelabbing a few weeks ago with a few old laptops I had lying around. I have no idea what I'm doing most of the time but AI / google search / tutorials are how I get by in general. All this to say Anyways so at my school I happen to be the most computer savvy guy by a mile, I'd help out colleagues and admin with their issues here and there, and over time I went from teaching just English, to teaching Computer and Technology classes as well. Last year, my school also got a computer lab with 10 desktop PCs, no network equipment, spotty Wi-Fi. I made the most of it and taught the kids the basics and overall it went well. I was doing manual weekly backups of the files, doing some basic maintenance, none of this was part of my contract but I wanted to do my best for my own experience. This year, the school principal ordered a small 3D printer, and I also asked her to order a 24 port switch and related accessories, so that the computer lab could have a local network, and get things setup properly and efficiently. The 3D printer arrived, still waiting for the rest to arrive from overseas. So I feel a little overwhelmed and more importantly, I realize that I need to renegotiate my contract because I'm doing way too much this year. I want to go to the CFO who is in charge, and make a proposal for a separate "school sysadmin" contract alongside my teacher contract. And I want to make a list of what the duties would include. And this is where I'd love to have you guys' suggestions and insights on how to go about it. The school also wants to have its own basic website too, which is something I could make for them eventually. Should I include that in my proposal or do I keep it separate and sell it to them as a one-time purchase ? I'm mindful of a few things, personally I wanna grow and learn as much as possible and get that extra professional experience to help with my career down the line. But here the salaries are super low and to top it off times are hard economically, the negotiation is going to be difficult but I need to be fair to myself. I've been working part time jobs after school to make ends meet, mostly after-school tutoring with kids in the area. Realistically if I take on all this extra sysadmin work I would not longer have time to do that. So yeah I think I summed the situation up somewhat decently. I guess I'm trying to figure out a bunch of things at once. I would love any suggestion on how to go about the computer lab setup itself. Should I stick to Windows 10, should I try to set up AD so that the kids have their own accounts. Oh and the school doesn't have a server either, can I 'make' one using a laptop/PC - would a laptop be preferable, since here we get a lot of power outages. What equipment should I be pushing them to acquire, at the moment we have no surge protector for example I'm thinking we need at least one for the fancy printer they just got, but ideally all PCs should get one right.

Open original transmissionPolitico EU reports: The European Commission has rolled out an alternative to Microsoft Teams — but officials using it aren't impressed, with one describing the tool as "absolute shit." The Commission introduced Element Pro over the summer as a "sovereign back-up to Teams," according to an internal staff memo seen by POLITICO. The platform is intended to provide a fallback for Commission communications if U.S.-based Teams becomes unavailable.... But three officials have questioned why the Commission needs the new system — and whether it works well enough to serve as a genuine backup. "I don't understand the added value here," one official wrote on an internal staff message board, seen by POLITICO. Another described the tool as "absolute shit." A third official said that, judging matters on how well Element Pro works compared to Teams, the U.S. would "instantly win the war" if it ever decided to switch off its technology... The Commission hosts the Element system on its own infrastructure rather than relying on Microsoft's cloud. That gives the institution greater control over its communications data and systems... Element is a U.K. company whose software is used by governments and public-sector organizations in Europe... Element CEO Matthew Hodgson told POLITICO in a call using Element software that the Commission is still trialing it. "Obviously there are going to be some teething issues," he said, adding there will always be "cognitive dissonance" when switching to a new app, if only because the "buttons" are in a different place. He noted that the United Nations and NATO also use Element Pro. The article adds that earlier this year, France announced millions of civil servants will switch to home-grown alternatives to American video-conferencing tools including Microsoft Teams and Zoom by 2027, while Austria's military also replaced Microsoft Office with the German-made LibreOffice last year.

I’ll go first: Working for a huge IT company, in the MSP department, our department was around 15% of the total employees, and the 3rd biggest department. Suddenly a policy that all mobile phone numbers were to be in the signature of all emails you send. Suddenly all emails we sent out to one or all of our customers 10 000+ employees included our mobile phone number. And for most of us, that ment it was also our personal mobile phone numbers. No one noticed this before people were getting calls and texts after hours and weekends. It started slow, but after a few weeks, people started getting annoyed and we figured it out of course. All technical staff agreed on this being bad, and stopped responding on all mails until we got exemptions, which took another week or two.. 😂 submitted by /u/DOKiny [link] [comments]

Open original transmission"Scientists have discovered a virus that is a tiny bit human, carrying a gene it stole from our ancestors about 100,000 years ago," writes the New York Times. "And this virus may be using our own gene to infect us." Phys.org explains that it's "both an important gene for brain function and a jumping gene capable of moving and inserting itself into genomes." BC200 is found only in humans and related primates and was discovered in the late 1980s as an abundant noncoding RNA in human neurons. Although BC200's physiological function is poorly understood, evidence suggests it may be involved in regulating the translation of neuronal messenger RNAs into proteins... The researchers also suspect that BC200 jumped in skin cells because these are the only cells known to be infected by molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV). The gene is also abnormally expressed in some tumors and overexpressed in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, suggesting its jumping ability could play roles in these diseases. [Cedric Feschotte, a senior author of the study] said he and his colleagues would like to explore whether the molluscum contagiosum virus uses BC200 to manipulate human host cells. They are also interested in better understanding the gene's role in disease, including breast and other types of tumors in which it is abnormally expressed, and whether it jumps in cancer cells and causes mutations.

Open original transmissionWhile most magnets have two poles (north and south, or positive and negative), recent advances in quantum mechanics have revealed an "octupolar order," writes Phys.org, where a pattern of particles in a crystalline structure "behaves as if it has eight magnetic poles rather than the familiar two." Now, a team led by quantum physicists at the University of Toronto has established a new method for observing quantum magnetic states using light to probe the atomic vibrations produced as electrons spin. The work is a critical first step toward harnessing multipolar magnetism for practical technologies, including next-generation data storage and computing devices. "We identified new signatures of a hidden type of magnetic state which cannot be detected using ordinary probes," says Arun Paramekanti, a professor in the Department of Physics and the Center for Quantum Information & Quantum Control in the Faculty of Arts & Science at the University of Toronto, and senior author of a study published in Physical Review Letters that describes the findings. "Our research opens up the possibility for using higher-order magnets in several applications including controllable read-write memory elements found in everyday computers...." By directing a special type of rotating light at magnetic materials, the team observed a clear optical fingerprint of the otherwise hidden magnetic order.... The findings offer a new tool for uncovering and manipulating previously inaccessible forms of magnetism, opening new avenues for quantum technology development. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmission404 Media reports: "We will not add facial recognition to our devices," Flock CEO Garrett Langley said in a recent video. But other, third-party companies are telling cops that they are willing to add facial recognition to data gathered by Flock cameras in order to "close that gap." A company called VIDIZMO is advertising the capability to export footage from FlockOS to its own platforms that do facial recognition, behavior prediction, and racial and gender analysis on live camera feeds. VIDIZMO is a several decades-old video analysis and database company that has started offering facial recognition technology to cops within the last six months. In a May email to Johnson City, Tennessee, deputy police chief Michael Adams, a salesperson from VIDIZMO wrote that the company's product could do facial recognition on both Flock and Axon [body-worn camera] data in "one searchable platform...." VIDIZMO's CEO, Nadeem Khan, told 404 Media on a video call that the company has not yet started running facial recognition tech on footage from Flock cameras, and that it has not actually built the specific tool that would export data from Flock's system to its own platform (though the company advertises this capability online, and the company already sells other facial recognition products). But Khan said VIDIZMO "would love to do the integration," and that he believes facial recognition "is the way the world is going, the way the world will have to be," and that he thinks Flock should offer the capability itself in a way that "balances privacy, security, and the freedom that we enjoy in this country." The article notes that VIDIZMO says on its website, "You can identify individuals from seven races: White, Black, Indian, East Asian, Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern, and Latino Hispanic." VIDIZMO adds that stores or cities can also then do "demographic analysis" for marketing purposes by determining the races or ages of people showing up.... Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionSpaceflight Now reports: "A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket launched from Florida Thursday night on a classified mission for the National Reconnaissance Office, America's spy satellite agency... The NRO has previously flown payloads on 22 Falcon 9 rockets but this is the first time it has used the heavy-lift Falcon Heavy, which consists of three Falcon 9 boosters and an upper stage, topped by a payload fairing. The powerful rocket, which lifts off under the power of 27 Merlin 1D engines, was introduced to great fanfare in 2018 and made its 14th flight Thursday night... NROL-97 was SpaceX's third Falcon launch of the day. In addition to the Crew 13 mission, the company launched 130 payloads on the Transporter 13 rideshare mission from its West Coast pad at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. It was the first time the company has landed four boosters in a single day. CNN reports: As Starship flights ramp up, SpaceX has made clear that the company will phase out the use of two of its most iconic creations: the Dragon spacecraft, which ferries astronauts and cargo to and from the International Space Station, and the Falcon 9 rocket, which for a decade has dominated the global launch market. These vehicles not only revolutionized the space industry in their own way, they're also still very much essential to ongoing work in Earth orbit, without clear backup options in place. The prospect of this loss is already spurring panic among some satellite operators, said Caleb Henry, director of research at analytics firm Quilty Space... Henry said he expects that most of the remaining space on board Falcon 9 rockets has already been sold and — beyond early 2029 — such flights may be reserved solely for the US government. Even NASA, which currently counts the Dragon capsule as the only US-made spacecraft capable of getting its astronauts to and from the ISS, has also acknowledged the looming retirement of SpaceX's workhorse vehicles.... Despite the success of Falcon and Dragon, a peek at SpaceX's business book may hint at financial reasons for retiring the vehicles. In its first quarterly earnings report, SpaceX revealed its space segment — which includes Falcon, Dragon and Starship — lost $542 million. By comparison, its Starlink internet and connectivity business made nearly $1.7 billion. Starship is expected to continue to cost SpaceX untold millions as it moves out of the prototyping phase. But one reason SpaceX is willing to bet big on Starship is that it's simply "much better" for achieving the company's own long-term goals, said SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell at a recent conference. So it makes sense to shift resources toward the megarocket's future.... This rocket supply crunch has been looming since 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine — which immediately removed Russia's Soyuz and Proton rockets from the commercial market, Henry noted. On top of that, Amazon — which is deploying a space-based internet constellation to rival SpaceX's Starlink — stepped in to buy more than 100 launches from various rocket makers.... Though some satellite manufacturers are hopeful that space onboard future Starship launches will be offered to satellite operators, it's not clear when or if that will happen.... It is possible that a launch supply crunch could be averted, noted Micah Walter-Range, a space analyst and contributor to the VettaFi Space Index. But satellite operators may be wary because newer rockets that have for years promised to step up to compete with the Falcon 9 have not yet begun flying with any regularity. "The space industry hates uncertainty, particularly when it comes to planning of launches," Walter-Range said. The article notes that Rocket Lab, Firefly Aerospace, United Launch Alliance, and the Jeff Bezos-founded Blue Origin "have not yet reached the scale or launch cadence that the industry is demanding."

Open original transmissionU.S. President Donald Trump "doxxed" a U.S. senator today, writes the Washington Sun, by posting his cell phone number "as part of a plea for his Truth Social followers to badger his Republican ally into making daylight saving time permanent." When The Washington Sun called the number minutes after Trump's post, a recording said the mailbox was full and could not receive messages... [Senator Tom] Cotton has long detested the idea of making daylight saving time permanent. In a Senate floor speech last year, Cotton said doing so would "make winter a dark and dismal time for millions of Americans," particularly harming kids. The Senate was only able to unanimously pass the bill in 2022 because Cotton was reportedly unaware the vote was taking place, though the measure stalled out from there. The Arkansas Republican didn't back down in a post on Saturday. "Arkansans don't want their kids going to school in the pitch dark, and I'll always put Arkansas first," he posted on X. Trump continued his tear against Cotton soon after. "If Tom Cotton were putting Arkansas first, he would give them an extra hour of daylight and, more importantly, they wouldn't have to run all over their houses, farms, work places, and everywhere else, twice a year, having to change their Clocks, and often forgetting to do so," he posted on Truth.

Open original transmissionPhoronix reports: Steam on Linux use in March hit an all-time high of around 5.33% marketshare. Since then it pulled back to around 4% while for September 2026 the Steam Survey results... indicate a rather steep decline of 0.85%, down to 3.05%. Meanwhile macOS is at 1.92% and Microsoft Windows at 95%... Steam's Survey reports a 7.42% increase in Chinese use, up to 31.39% overall of the Steam population. Usually those large month-over-month swings where Steam China use shoots up dramatically is a boost to Windows and a detriment to Linux. Some attribute the large increases in Simplified Chinese use to being a reporting/sampling issue. When diving into the Steam Linux data exclusively, CachyOS has spiked by another 2.65% to now account for 18.12% of the sampled Linux gaming population. That even outperforms SteamOS Holo coming in at 17.37%. Among Linux gamers on Steam, AMD CPUs still account for the high 60 percentage space thanks to the Steam Deck and Steam Machine using AMD APUs and their open-source/Linux support being popular with enthusiasts.

Open original transmissionOur SRT 10000 (2018, UPS fw 04.7, NMC2 6.5.6) had an inverter fault today. It went to bypass for about 50 minutes, then dropped the output completely. LCD just said "Power Sys Error-02000", no extra sub-code. NMC log only shows the generic "inverter fault exists" (0x0165). I cleared the error and turned the output back on. Self-test passes and it's running fine for now. One thing worth mentioning: our input power has been bad lately. It's been going to battery 2-4 times a day on low voltage / distorted input, so the inverter has been getting a workout. Anyone been through this? Did it come back, or was it the start of the end? It's out of warranty, so I'm leaning towards replacing it, but I'd like to hear from people who've seen 02000 before. submitted by /u/abdlmalekluttee [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionHey everyone, looking for advice on the cleanest architecture/strategy for our setup. Current Setup: Local Active Directory Domain: On-prem Domain Controller hosting file servers and CRM. Microsoft 365 Tenant: Connected to our u/domain.gr email addresses. Endpoints: Windows laptops used both on-prem and remotely. Remote Access: Users connect back to the local network via FortiGate SSL VPN to access the local file server and CRM. Goal: Allow users to sign into their Windows laptops using their M365 u/domain.gr credentials (SSO/single identity across email and OS logon). Centralized device management for the laptops (pushing policies, security, updates). Seamless access to local resources (file server, CRM) via FortiGate VPN. Questions: Should we connect Local AD and Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)? If YES: What is the standard way to do this today? Should we use Entra Connect Sync to sync local AD users to M365 (Hybrid), or Entra Application Proxy / Cloud Sync? How does laptop join work in this case (Hybrid Entra Join vs. Cloud-Only Entra Join with SSO to local resources)? If NO: What is the alternative? Move entirely to cloud-native (Entra ID + Intune) and use Cloud Kerberos Trust for local file server/CRM access, eliminating the need to join laptops to local AD? Device Management: Is Intune the default choice here, or are people sticking to traditional AD Group Policy (GPO) over FortiGate VPN? FortiGate VPN Integration: Has anyone integrated FortiGate VPN with M365 SAML/Entra ID SSO with MFA so users get a single sign-on experience for both the VPN client and local network resources? Would appreciate any recommendations or real-world experiences from anyone who has modernized a similar setup! submitted by /u/Prudent-Big-9068 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionExploitation attempts came from China-hosted IP, VulnCheck researcher says
Open original transmissionI currently work in IT for a manufacturing company and have an offer for a Systems Administrator position at $105k, also in manufacturing. I’m also interviewing for an IT Analyst II/support role at a large, well-known telecommunications/communications tech company. The SysAdmin role is the obvious progression on paper. Better title, direct move out of support, and I’d be staying in an industry I already know. I’d get exposure to Windows Server, AD/GPO, networking, virtualization, backups/DR and supporting another manufacturing environment. My concern is that the infrastructure is already pretty built out and from the interviews I got the impression that a decent amount of the day to day may still be support work. It’s also a smaller IT environment, so I’m not sure how much opportunity there would eventually be to specialize deeper into infrastructure or cloud. The other position is technically a step backwards in title, but it would be a completely different environment. Much larger enterprise, dedicated infrastructure teams, a lot more specialization, and exposure to IT at a scale I haven’t worked in before. My interview with the support lead went extremely well and he seemed like someone I could learn a lot from. My next interview would include one of their infrastructure leads. They also talked about analysts becoming SMEs, working with other IT teams, getting involved in larger projects and potentially moving internally. That is the part making me seriously consider it. I’ve learned a ton working in small manufacturing IT because you end up touching everything, but I’m starting to think being around dedicated infrastructure engineers and seeing how a large enterprise operates could help me grow in a different way. My long-term goal is infrastructure/cloud engineering and eventually cloud architecture. I’m currently working on AZ-104 and want to keep building experience with Windows Server, networking, virtualization, PowerShell, Azure and backup/DR. I obviously don’t have an offer from the second company yet, so there’s nothing to decide today. Compensation there could end up being similar to or even better than the SysAdmin offer. Assuming the money is comparable, which environment would you consider better for the next 2-5 years of career growth? Would you take the Systems Administrator title and continue building experience in manufacturing, or take the lower support title at a large telecommunications enterprise with more mentorship, specialization and a possible internal path into infrastructure engineering? I’m mainly interested in which experience would set me up better long term, not which title looks better right now. submitted by /u/chrisv2489 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionThings are getting crazy in the Apple rumor world, as even though the iPhone 18 Pro and several other products have only just launched and the iPhone Duo is right around the corner, there's even more to come imminently. October 13 looks to be the date for an introduction of Apple's revamped smart home portfolio, including the home hub device we've been hearing about for ages. This week also saw word that Apple's supply chain is struggling to meet production yield goals for the iPhone Duo ahead of its launch, while iPhone 18 Pro owners are now getting a chance to put the devices through their paces, so read on below for all of the details! Top Stories Three New Apple Smart Home Products Coming on October 13 A couple of those leaked products above could be arriving very shortly, as Bloomberg's Mark Gurman says Apple will be introducing a trio of new smart home products on Tuesday, October 13. Apple will reportedly debut its long-rumored smart home hub product, as well as the new HomePod mini and Apple TV models, and while he didn't specify how Apple will introduce them, signs are pointing to some sort of event. Apple retail stores have reportedly also received confidential boxes that are marked "Do Not Open Until October 8" and which are likely to contain merchandising materials. It's unclear, however, if they are for the upcoming iPhone Duo launch or something related to the smart home product introduction. Apple Smart Home Hub to Feature iMac G4-Style Design Apple's long-rumored smart home hub will have an iMac G4-style design and a host of unique features, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. The smart home hub is said to feature a square 6-inch display, with variants that can be placed on a countertop or mounted on a wall. It features a single FaceTime camera on the front, with microphones and speakers in its connected base. Leaks suggest the hub may be available in Silver, Space Gray, Starlight, and Rose Pink colors, and will be able to display user-customizable Photo Faces pulled from your photos library, memories, and shared albums, a feature that appears similar to what will be available for StandBy mode on the iPhone Duo. iPhone Duo Reportedly Facing Production Problems Ahead of Launch The iPhone Duo is reportedly facing production difficulties ahead of its October launch, with early output expected to be limited. A person said to be close to Foxconn's supply chain told China's Jiemian News that final assembly yields for Apple's first foldable iPhone were only slightly above 60% as of September 17. The source said that, under Apple's current quality standards, it could take another six months to a year for the assembly line to reach a mature yield. According to the source, Foxconn is repeatedly adjusting equipment, assembly processes, and production settings as it makes the iPhone Duo at scale. The source also said suppliers were waiting to see whether Apple would ease any quality requirements to accelerate production. iPhone 18 Pro First Impressions: What Do You Think So Far? It's been almost two weeks since the iPhone 18 Pro models launched, and we want to hear from MacRumors readers. What do you think of Apple's newest iPhones? If you upgraded from an older phone, was it worth it? What about upgrading from an iPhone 17 Pro? What problems are you running into? Anything you love so far? MacRumors readers have already been sharing early opinions on the MacRumors forums, and there are interesting discussion threads to read through. For early reviews and hands-on images, make sure to check out the first impressions and photos thread. Not everything has been perfect, however, as some users have been experiencing issues such as speaker crackling or popping while some iPhone 18 Pro Max users on AT&T in the U.S. have been having issues with cellular connectivity or eSIM provisioning. Apple Planning to Launch Products Faster and More Often John Ternus is marking one month as Apple CEO, and he is apparently undertaking efforts to restructure the company to accelerate product development and introduce new products more frequently, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Ternus apparently wants Apple to "broaden its range of devices and create a leaner organization with a greater focus on engineering." One proposal under consideration is to rely less on Apple's traditional spring and fall product release cycles, and introduce new devices more quickly and throughout the year. Ternus has also purportedly indicated that Apple must become "more experimental" to remain competitive in the era of artificial intelligence.

Open original transmissionApple today confirmed that a "small number" of iPhone 18 Pro Max users on the AT&T network have experienced an issue that causes the device to lose cellular service, thereby preventing phone calls, text messages, and data from working. Thousands of users complained about the issue across the Apple Support Community and other platforms. Apple said it released iOS 27.0.1 earlier this week and an AT&T carrier settings update earlier today to help prevent more iPhone 18 Pro Max users from being impacted by this issue going forward. In a statement shared with MacRumors, Apple strongly encouraged all iPhone 18 Pro Max users to update to iOS 27.0.1 now. To install the update, open the Settings app on your iPhone and tap on General → Software Update. The carrier settings update for the iPhone 18 Pro Max will automatically download for AT&T users over the next 14 days, according to Apple. To manually trigger the update, users can open the Settings app and tap on General → About. Apple's full statement:We have identified an issue affecting a small number of iPhone 18 Pro Max users on the AT&T network that may cause a device to lose service and be unable to make calls. We released iOS 27.0.1 earlier this week and strongly encourage all iPhone 18 Pro Max users to update now, and are also issuing a carrier settings update today. These updates together are meant to help prevent this issue from occurring.Notably, Apple said that iPhone 18 Pro Max devices that have been affected by this cellular issue on the AT&T network cannot have service reactivated with a software update. Instead, Apple said the device must be replaced entirely, and it advises affected customers to contact Apple Support or AT&T, or visit an Apple Store or AT&T location. Apple said it has only observed this issue with iPhone 18 Pro Max users on the AT&T network. No other iPhone models or carriers are known to be impacted. Apple did not disclose the underlying cause of the issue. U.S. models of the iPhone 18 Pro Max rely on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X80 modem for cellular connectivity, while variants of the device sold in all other countries are equipped with Apple's custom C2 modem. It is unclear if this modem difference is a factor in this AT&T issue. It is also unclear if there will eventually be an Apple Service Program dedicated to this issue. In the meantime, it sounds like Apple Stores will replace affected iPhone 18 Pro Max devices for free, so book an appointment with the Genius Bar if necessary.Related Roundup: iPhone 18 ProBuyer's Guide: iPhone 18 Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "Apple Says iPhone 18 Pro Max Users With AT&T Cellular Issue Need to Have Device Replaced" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionAs customers prepare for the final phase of Exchange Web Services (EWS) retirement in Exchange Online, many are asking the same practical question: how can I prove that EWSAllowedAppIDs is working before I depend on it? This field guide walks through a controlled positive-and-negative test, explains what the result means, and highlights an important naming trap that we are already seeing in customer conversations. A note from the field The most common confusion is not about the PowerShell syntax. It is about two similarly named controls that operate at different layers. EWSAllowedAppIDs is the new application-ID control for EWS. The older EWSAllowList and EWSBlockList settings are user-agent controls associated with EwsApplicationAccessPolicy, and they can affect both EWS and REST traffic. Understand the two controls before testing EWSAllowedAppIDs is a tenant-level list of application (client) IDs. When EWS is enabled and the list contains one or more Application IDs, only the listed applications are permitted to access EWS. This is the control to validate when you are testing an application's EWS access during the retirement transition. EWSAllowList and EWSBlockList are older, user-agent-based controls. Despite their names, the underlying access policy is not limited to EWS; it will also affect REST requests. Customers that already use these settings may still need them for REST access control after EWS retirement. The controls are evaluated independently. In practical terms, an EWS request must pass the application-ID control and then any applicable user-agent control. A successful App-ID test therefore does not prove that a separate user-agent policy is configured correctly. What the test proves A valid before-and-after test demonstrates the EWSAllowedAppIDs behavior only when all of the following are true: The application can obtain an OAuth token. The application has EWS application permission and tenant-wide admin consent. EWSEnabled is set to True for the test. The test mailbox contains at least one item in the Inbox. The App ID is present for the positive test and absent for the negative test. At least 24 hours has elapsed after each allow-list change. Before you start Perform this procedure in a test tenant if you can. Removing an application from the list can stop a production workload from accessing EWS after the configuration change has propagated. Prepare the following: A test mailbox with at least one Inbox item. An app registration in the same tenant as the mailbox. EWS application permission with tenant-wide admin consent. A client secret or certificate for application authentication. Treat a client secret as a password and do not place it in a shared script or source-control repository. Exchange Online PowerShell access and permission to run Get-OrganizationConfig and Set-OrganizationConfig. Download the Test-EWSAppAccess.ps1 script. This is a test script that you can use unless you want to test with a real app. Script documentation can be found at Testing EWS App Access. Record the tenant ID, application (client) ID, test mailbox SMTP address, and the selected authentication material before starting. Test 1: Confirm access while the app is allowed Connect to Exchange Online PowerShell. Connect-ExchangeOnline Inspect the current EWS state and capture the complete existing App-ID list. Get-OrganizationConfig | Format-List EWSEnabled Get-OrganizationConfig -RetrieveEwsOperationAccessPolicy | Format-List EwsAllowedAppIDs For a controlled test, set EWSEnabled to $null (all EWS allowed, AppID Allow List ignored). Set-OrganizationConfig -EWSEnabled $null Add the test App ID without overwriting any existing entries. The EwsAllowedAppIDs command writes the complete list, so preserve the current value. $current = (Get-OrganizationConfig -RetrieveEwsOperationAccessPolicy).EwsAllowedAppIDs $updated = @($current -split "," | ForEach-Object { $_.Trim() } | Where-Object { $_ }; $appId) | Select-Object -Unique Set-OrganizationConfig -EwsAllowedAppIDs ($updated -join ",") Verify that the App ID was written. Get-OrganizationConfig -RetrieveEwsOperationAccessPolicy | Format-List EwsAllowedAppIDs Wait for the change to propagate. Because of the Exchange Online configuration caching, this can take up to 24 hours. Set EWSEnabled to True Set-OrganizationConfig -EWSEnabled $true Wait for under 1 hour (but can be up to 4 hours), for the change to become effective. Download Test-EWSAppAccess.ps1 and run Test-EWSAppAccess.ps1 with application authentication. The Mailbox parameter is required when using application permissions. .\Test-EWSAppAccess.ps1 -AppId $appId -TenantId $tenantId -Mailbox $mailbox -SecretKey $secretKey A successful test should report that the application accessed the mailbox. Application successfully accessed mailbox Confirm that $LASTEXITCODE is 0 and save the output with your change record. Test 2: Remove the app and confirm access is blocked Remove only the test App ID, preserving every other entry. $current = (Get-OrganizationConfig -RetrieveEwsOperationAccessPolicy).EwsAllowedAppIDs $updated = $current -split "," | ForEach-Object { $_.Trim() } | Where-Object { $_ -and $_ -ne $appId } Set-OrganizationConfig -EwsAllowedAppIDs ($updated -join ",") Confirm that the App ID is no longer present. Get-OrganizationConfig -RetrieveEwsOperationAccessPolicy | Format-List EwsAllowedAppIDs Wait at least 24 hours before retesting. An immediate success can simply mean that an Exchange Online server still has the previous configuration cached. Run the same Test-EWSAppAccess.ps1 command again. After propagation, the expected result is a failure. Application failed to access mailbox Confirm that the process returns exit code 1. If the first test failed too, troubleshoot authentication, permissions, consent, mailbox access, and script dependencies before concluding that the allow list caused the failure. Restore the test App ID to the full list, verify the configuration, wait for propagation, and repeat the successful-access test. Do not leave a production tenant with an unintentionally empty or incomplete App ID allow list. The fastest way to re-enable EWS after App ID blocking Let’s say you are testing this process in a tenant and after setting both EWSEnabled = True and populating EWSAllowedAppIDs you do not see results that you expected and need the quickest way to undo your changes and re-enable the use of EWS in your tenant. Changes to EWSAllowedAppIDs take ~24 hours to fully apply to your tenant. Changes to EWSEnabled take about 1 hour. EWSAllowedAppIDs (Allow List) is ignored if EWSEnabled is set to Null. Therefore, the quickest way to re-enable EWS in an unrestricted way is to set EWSEnabled back to Null. One hour later, EWS will be unrestricted: Set-OrganizationConfig -EWSEnabled $null EWSEditor is another option EWSEditor is also available for administrators and developers who prefer an interactive EWS API explorer. It can be useful for making a real EWS call against a test mailbox while using the same application identity you are validating. You still need a correctly configured OAuth application, EWS permissions and consent, a controlled test mailbox, a recorded baseline, and enough time for EWSAllowedAppIDs changes to propagate. Common pitfalls to avoid Running the negative test immediately after removing the App ID. Replacing the entire list instead of preserving existing App IDs. Testing with an empty Inbox when the test script reads the first Inbox item. Treating an OAuth, permission, consent, or credential failure as proof that EWSAllowedAppIDs blocked the request. Confusing the user-agent-based EWSAllowList or EWSBlockList with the new App-ID-based EWSAllowedAppIDs control. Adding an App ID for a workload that uses REST but does not call EWS. Customer guidance in one paragraph If an application calls EWS and requires temporary access during the retirement transition, validate its application ID with EWSAllowedAppIDs in a test tenant. If a tenant already uses EwsApplicationAccessPolicy, assess its EWSAllowList or EWSBlockList separately because those user-agent settings can also affect REST. The similar names do not make the controls interchangeable. The simple rule: use EWSAllowedAppIDs for the new EWS application-ID gate; use EWSAllowList or EWSBlockList only for the older user-agent policy. Test each layer independently. This distinction matters because we are already seeing customers assume that any setting beginning with “EWS” is part of the EWS retirement exception process. It is not. Making that mistake can create unnecessary configuration changes or interrupt REST workloads that were never using EWS.

Open original transmissionThe deprecation of EWS in Exchange Online starts today. This is a multi-step process, years in the making, and this post has lots of important information. We will keep this post updated if we have new information to add. The first change, as previously announced, starting early October 2026, means setting EWSEnabled to True will no longer be sufficient on its own to keep EWS working in the tenant: an AppID allow list (EWSAllowedAppIDs) will be required to specify apps that you want to permit access to EWS. What happens next Customers in our multi-tenant (WW) cloud who have already set EWSEnabled = True but did not create EWSAllowedAppIDs (AppID allow list) will see a configuration change: Date What happens Significance October 2, end of day (Pacific Time) Microsoft records a list of tenants (EWSEnabled = True and no EWSAllowedAppIDs). After this date, any tenant admin who sets EWSEnabled = True, must populate EWSAllowedAppIDs themselves. October 8-9, end of day (Pacific Time) Microsoft creates the EWSAllowedAppIDs list and populates it with EWS AppIDs used within the previous 60 days if your tenant was captured in the October 2nd list. Starting October 10 Microsoft turns on the cloud setting to require EWSAllowedAppIDs to be present if EWSEnabled = True for all tenants (only in WW at this time) Starting on this day, the AppID allow list (EWSAllowedAppIDs) will be required if tenant EWS is enabled (EWSEnabled = True) in our WW cloud. This behavior change will take place in the WW cloud first. Tenants in other clouds will see comms and timelines specific to them via Message Center in due course. Once this above change has taken effect, we will move to the second phase, turning off EWS for customers in our multi-tenant (WW) cloud who did not modify EWSEnabled (so it is still Null) and did not create EWSAllowedAppIDs (AppID allow list): Tenants will get a 7-day warning in Message Center when they are selected. Once their EWSEnabled is set to False by us, if they need EWS use they will need to set EWSEnabled back to True. Microsoft will populate EWSAllowedAppIDs for these customers based on 60 days of usage shortly before setting EWSEabled to False. Other Important Information Changing Related EWS Settings Please remember that: Changes to EWSAllowedAppIDs take 24 hours to take effect Changes to EWSEnabled take typically under 1 hour (but can be up to 4 hours) EWSAllowList property does not need to be configured and/or changed (it is not related to EWS deprecation). Please review this blog if unclear. Microsoft Applications EWS Use We know customers are still seeing traffic from some Microsoft applications. These applications (if they show up in the EWS usage report) still need to be added to the EWSAllowedAppIDs list to keep working. The latest on each of these: Outlook for Windows: Customers should be on latest builds (August 2026 build 16.0.20430.20092 or higher). If customers see problems with EWS disabled, it may be due to customer forced configuration (see this example). We recommend testing to determine if blocking EWS for the Office client AppID is possible in your tenant, without impact. Microsoft successfully disabled EWS internally over a year ago. Outlook for Mac: Please update to the latest builds and switch to the new Outlook for Mac. If you are already using new Outlook, then this change will not affect you. If you still need to use Classic Outlook, ensure the “Microsoft Office” AppID is in your EWSAllowedAppIDs list. Excel Power Query: Please see https://aka.ms/xlewsretirement. PowerBI: we will provide an update soon. Exchange Server / Exchange hybrid: please see Impact of Exchange Online EWS Deprecation on Hybrid Rich Coexistence and Cross-org Sharing | Microsoft Community Hub.

Open original transmissionIn a post on its developer news website today, Apple announced that it will be introducing "additional controls" for the "Full Disk Access" setting on macOS due to new risks posed by AI agents. This announcement comes amid the rise of always-on AI agents like Meta's Muse and OpenAI's Dots, which have prompted privacy concerns. "Some developers are using Full Disk Access in ways that could put users at risk, exposing everything on their systems—including files, mail, messages, and even browsing history—without users' full knowledge and understanding," said Apple. "As AI agents become increasingly capable and autonomous, the risks associated with this level of access will grow substantially," it added. Here is the full text of Apple's announcement:We give developers powerful APIs to build incredible capabilities into their apps for Apple products, backed by a set of controls designed to protect users' private data. Full Disk Access largely sidesteps these controls in order to allow backup apps to function properly on the Mac. Some developers are using Full Disk Access in ways that could put users at risk, exposing everything on their systems—including files, mail, messages, and even browsing history—without users' full knowledge and understanding. For communication apps, this can also compromise the privacy of the people users are communicating with. Going forward, we will introduce additional controls to ensure that users who genuinely wish to grant an app this extraordinary level of access can only do so with very explicit user action. Addressing this is critical. As AI agents become increasingly capable and autonomous, the risks associated with this level of access will grow substantially. We are committed to ensuring users clearly understand these risks before granting such access, so they can make informed decisions about their own data and privacy.Apple did not say when the new "Full Disk Access" controls will be implemented.Related Roundup: macOS Golden GateRelated Forum: macOS Golden GateThis article, "Apple Announces 'Full Disk Access' Changes on macOS Due to AI Agents" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionMicrosoft has released Security Updates (SUs) for vulnerabilities found in: Exchange Server Subscription Edition (SE) Exchange Server 2019 Exchange Server 2016 SUs are available for the following specific versions of Exchange Server: Exchange SE RTM Exchange Server 2019 CU14 and CU15 (to access, organization must be enrolled into the Period 2 ESU program) Exchange Server 2016 CU23 (to access, organization must be enrolled into the Period 2 ESU program) The September 2026 V2 SUs address vulnerabilities responsibly reported to Microsoft by security partners and found through Microsoft’s internal processes. The difference between the original September 2026 Security Update release and this V2 release is an addition of CVE-2026-96940. Please see the download KB article for more information. These vulnerabilities affect Exchange Server. Exchange Online customers are already protected from the vulnerabilities addressed by these SUs and do not need to take any action other than updating any Exchange servers or Exchange Management tools workstations in their environment. More details about specific CVEs can be found in the Security Update Guide (filter on ‘Server Software’ under Product Family for Exchange SE and ‘ESU’ under Product Family for Exchange 2016 and 2019). Exchange 2016 and 2019 updates are available only under the Period 2 ESU program Exchange Server 2016 and 2019 are out of support. Only customers who enrolled in the Period 2 Extended Security Update (ESU) program are eligible to receive Exchange Server 2016 and 2019 security updates released between May and October 2026. If you are not part of the Period 2 ESU program, migrate to Exchange Server Subscription Edition (SE) to keep receiving the latest security updates. If you have already purchased the Period 2 ESU and need information on accessing the latest Security Updates, please contact us by sending an email to ExchangeandSfBServerESUInquiry@service.microsoft.com.

Running this script will tell you if any of your Exchange Servers are behind on updates (CUs, SUs, or manual actions). Install the latest CU. Use the Exchange Update Wizard to choose your current CU and your target CU to get directions. After setup is completed, please reboot the server and check that all Exchange services have started properly. If some services are in a disabled state, that indicates that something interrupted installation of the update. Please see the Workaround 1 in this article. If you encounter errors during or after installation of Exchange Server, run the SetupAssist script. If something does not work properly after updates, see Repair failed installations of Exchange Cumulative and Security updates. Also please see File version error when you try to install Exchange Server updates. FAQs Our organization is in Hybrid mode with Exchange Online. Do we need to do anything?Exchange Online is already protected, but this SU needs to be installed on your Exchange servers, even if they are used only for management purposes. If you change the auth certificate after installing an SU, you should re-run the Hybrid Configuration Wizard. The last SU/HU we installed is a few months old. Do we need to install all SUs in order to install the latest one?SUs are cumulative. If you are running a CU supported by the SU, you do not need to install all SUs or HUs in sequential order; simply install the latest SU. Please see this blog post for more information. Do we need to install SUs on all Exchange Servers within our organization? What about ‘Management Tools only’ machines?Our recommendation is to install SUs on all Exchange Servers and all servers and workstations running the Exchange Management Tools to ensure compatibility between management tools clients and servers. If you are trying to update the Exchange Management Tools in the environment with no running Exchange servers, please see this. We installed an Exchange SU or HU update and are running Windows Server 2025. How do we uninstall updates as they are not listed on Windows Server 2025?We do not recommend uninstalling Security Updates. But see Can't view or uninstall Exchange security or hotfix updates in Control Panel on Windows Server 2025 | Microsoft Support. Our organization does not have the Exchange 2016 and 2019 Period 2 ESU. How can we get current Exchange 2016 or 2019 updates?Since Exchange 2016 and 2019 are now out of support, only customers who have enrolled into the Period 2 ESU program (which is valid between May and October 2026) can obtain Exchange 2016 or 2019 updates released after May 2026. For all other customers still running Exchange 2016 or 2019, we recommend that you upgrade your organization to Exchange SE as soon as possible. The release sequence of this specific update was a bit strange. Why is this?This specific update, which adds CVE-2026-96940, was published ahead of its intended schedule. We recommend that customers review the deployment guidance and apply the update at the earliest opportunity. We identified the vulnerability internally and are not aware of active exploitation. For information about additional updates, customers should refer to our established security update channels. Documentation may not be fully available at the time this post is published. This post might receive future updates; they will be listed here (if available). The Exchange Server Team

Open original transmissionAT&T and Apple are taking action today as they try to resolve iPhone 18 Pro Max cellular issues, according to MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris. Thousands of iPhone 18 Pro Max users have been unable to connect to the AT&T network for phone calls, text messages, and data. The underlying cause has yet to be disclosed, but AT&T and Apple continue to work toward a resolution. First, Apple today released an AT&T carrier settings update (version 72.1, up from 72.0.2) for iPhones. Given the timing of this update, it presumably includes some optimizations related to iPhone 18 Pro Max cellular connectivity, but it is unclear if AT&T has fully resolved the issues or if further tweaks will be necessary. When a carrier settings update is available on your iPhone, you will be prompted to install it. If you dismiss the notification or do not see it, open the Settings app, tap General → About, and the update should appear there. You can see your iPhone's current carrier settings version in the same About menu, next to your carrier's name. Second, Apple today started requiring iPhone 18 Pro Max users to install iOS 27.0.1 in order to set up the device, even though most if not all affected users have said that the update does not resolve the issues. A leaked AT&T email said iOS 27.0.1 is meant to help mitigate future impacts, so it may still help in some way. In a statement shared with MacRumors today, AT&T said it is "working with Apple" on this. Apple did not respond to our request for comment. It is not yet clear if a follow-up update like iOS 27.0.2 will be required as part of a fix, or if the carrier update alone will be sufficient.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, iPhone 18 ProBuyer's Guide: iPhone 18 Pro (Buy Now)Related Forums: iOS 27, iPhoneThis article, "AT&T and Apple Just Took Steps Toward Fixing iPhone 18 Pro Max Issue" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionFor context we recently had a user termination that needed to be actioned very quickly and after the fact i started working on a script to help mitigate this issue instead of doing everything manually. I have most of what i would do manually in a script already. I mostly wanted a discussion on how people handle things like possible disgruntled workers or possible breached credentials. I built my script to revoke access/mfa and reset some things but make it easily reversible if needed. This is something of a stop gap till we get more automation, though sometimes things need to move faster than automation if that stuff is run in the middle of the night. TLDR: What does everyone disable/revoke/reset when you are trying to make sure an employee/former employee is unable to access anything as quickly as possible? Edit to add: Here is context for my own situation. We use Azure virtual desktop for a lot of things and if you don't go into that and boot them out all the other actions talked about in replies to this post do not actually kick them out of their AVD session. Revoking the session does cause some really odd behavior but it doesn't kick them out fully. Not all of our services are SSO but most are so taking care of the Microsoft stuff does a lot of the legwork. Right now what I do is this: Revoke all sessions, revoke MFA, reset password, block sign in, disable AD on premise (hybrid environment), then go into AVD and look for active sessions and kick them out if they are online. The reason I didn't include this in my original post was so i wouldn't bias anyone towards answering my specific needs and have a wider discussion. submitted by /u/BrianMichaelArthur [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionIn a statement shared with MacRumors today, AT&T said it is "working with Apple" to resolve iPhone 18 Pro Max cellular issues. "Apple has released a software update to address an issue that may affect calls, data, texts, and 911 calls on a small number of Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max phones," an AT&T spokesperson said. "AT&T customers with an iPhone 18 Pro Max should update their phones now to the latest available software. Our top priority is ensuring customers can stay connected when they need it most, and we are working with Apple to make it right." As we reported last week, affected iPhone 18 Pro Max users are unable to connect to the AT&T network for phone calls, text messages, or data either persistently or intermittently, and their devices typically enter SOS mode as a result. The underlying cause has not been confirmed, and Apple has yet to publicly comment on the matter. Thousands of users have experienced this problem since the iPhone 18 Pro Max launched on September 18, according to discussion threads across the Apple Support Community, Reddit, MacRumors Forums, and other online platforms. Notably, the U.S. version of the iPhone 18 Pro Max is the only new iPhone unveiled last month that is equipped with a Qualcomm cellular modem. The smaller iPhone 18 Pro and the iPhone Duo are equipped with Apple's C2 modem worldwide, as is the iPhone 18 Pro Max in all other countries. However, it is unclear if this is a contributing factor. AT&T said iPhone 18 Pro Max users who have experienced or continue to experience issues can return to an Apple or AT&T store for additional support. Yesterday, AT&T sent a text message to some customers advising them to update to iOS 27.0.1 immediately, even though that update does not appear to resolve the issues, according to comments shared by affected users. In an alleged internal email shared on Reddit today, AT&T clarified that its guidance about updating to iOS 27.0.1 is meant to help mitigate future impacts, but it is unclear if or how the update actually helps. Apple's release notes for iOS 27.0.1 only mentioned fixes for other bugs, including a Face ID issue affecting iPhone 18 Pro models. The alleged email added that customers can visit an Apple or AT&T store for a replacement device, but some customers said their request for a replacement under warranty was declined. With this issue becoming more widespread, hopefully Apple and AT&T are working to inform employees about the issue and implement a formal process. iPhone 18 Pro Max users should be aware that today is the final day to return the device to Apple under the company's standard 14-day return policy in the U.S., for customers who purchased or received it on September 18 launch day. Typically, Apple is able to address issues like these with software updates, so hopefully it will be able to fix the issue in iOS 27.0.2 or later. Hardware issues are more rare, but when they do happen, Apple sometimes launches a free repair program. We will continue to provide further updates on this topic as more information becomes available.Related Roundup: iPhone 18 ProBuyer's Guide: iPhone 18 Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "AT&T on iPhone 18 Pro Max Issues: 'We Are Working With Apple'" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionThe Apple Watch has received some incremental updates in recent years, with significant upgrades becoming fewer and farther between as the device has progressed. Since the Apple Watch's generation-over-generation enhancements are relatively small, it is all the more important to consider when an upgrade is justified and whether an older model could suffice for your needs. The Apple Watch Series 12 brings a more substantial set of changes than the Series 11, which was one of the smallest refreshes in the device's history. While Apple has discontinued previous Series models, older watches may still be available at lower prices from third-party retailers or secondhand. Read on to see the breakdown below for each new feature, change, and improvement that was added with each Apple Watch model compared to its direct predecessor.

Its new heart sensors, more frequent HRV measurements, Readiness app, and longer workout battery life matter most if you rely on your Apple Watch for training and recovery insights. Sound Recognition may also appeal to deaf or hard of hearing users, while the ceramic case offers a finish unavailable with the Series 11. Upgrading from a Series 10 brings these changes alongside the Series 11's 5G connectivity on cellular models and longer rated everyday battery life. From a Series 9, you would also gain the thinner Series 10 design, larger display, depth gauge, and water temperature sensor. The cumulative upgrades become more compelling for Series 8 users and older, particularly if battery wear is affecting daily use. Series 7 owners gain Crash Detection and temperature sensing as well as the newer design and Series 12 health features. The biggest differences will be felt by those with a Series 6 or older, though the condition of your current watch and the cost of replacing it still matter. watchOS 27 supports Series 9 and later, leaving the Series 8 and older without the latest major software release. That does not mean they will immediately stop working or receiving all security updates, but they are now considered old devices. If you are shopping for a replacement, a discounted or secondhand Series 11 may offer better value if you do not need the Series 12's health features, providing you can find it at a sufficiently low price. watchOS 26 is not supported by the Series 5 or older, so anyone with one of these devices should definitely consider upgrading soon. Looking to the future, it looks like next year's Apple Watch Series 13 could offer some major upgrades including a redesign and new sensors. This could make it a great upgrade for those with a Series 11 or older.

Open original transmissionI guess I am old. Time flies. It is impossible to not feel a hint of emotion when thinking back to my humble beginnings as tech support for a dial-up ISP. Those were the days... the tail end of the dot com boom. I can remember taking some calls while playing StarCraft :-). Eventually I became the senior technician until the company was sold off and I moved on to another ISP/Webhost where I became web support/sysadmin and then eventually a Level 2 NOC engineer and got to play in the datacenters. Nothing like changing backup tapes or pressing a button with the constant drone of countless server fans spinning. When that came to an end, I found my current company which is not a technology company at all... they absolutely loved paper files when I first got here. Lol. I started as helpdesk and quickly became IT Administrator within a few months. I began handling all aspects of company technology and learned a lot in a short time from exchange to virtualization to project management to dealing with vendors, billing, and everything in between. That learning has never stopped. Today, I am the Director of Information Technology, and I have a great team. We are able to pursue most any technology need that our staff has, and we can build almost anything in-house. It is a great feeling, especially when I look back to where everything began. Being somewhere this long is truly rewarding because you get to witness the lasting impact of what you do. Build something, watch people use it, identify opportunities for improvement, make it even better, and see the workflows improve. If I had to tell anyone anything it would be to not be afraid of pursuing more... make it clear to everyone that your goal is to make technology functional and easy and they just might let you do it. Anyone else have a couple decades in IT or spent most of their career at one place? What is next for us? I feel like I still learn something new nearly every day! Oh, and one more thing: have you tried rebooting? :-) submitted by /u/nastyvandal [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionFrågan om AI-säkerhet fortsätter att ”diskuteras” med oförminskad intensitet och utan några större försök att göra saker konkreta eller ens begripliga. Senaste veckan har Bill Gates varit ute och vevat om att AI i fel händer kan orsaka ”en miljard dödsfall” och i Anthropics prospekt inför börsnoteringen varnar företaget igen för att tekniken som de vill att investerare satsar pengar på kan innebära ”katastrofala eller existentiella risker för mänskligheten”. Samtidigt kommer fler rapporter om AI-modeller som agerar utanför sina instruktioner (eller snarare utanför sina usla skyddsvallar), som Open AI-agenten som mer eller mindre ddosade FN i jakt på data. Open AI har i sin tur stoppat utrullningen av GPT-6.1 Astra och dessutom sagt sig vilja avvakta med sin börsnotering till modellerna är säkrare. Och i politikens värld har AI-cheferna lismat för Donald Trump och skrivit under en helt meningslös ”moraliskt bindande” deklaration om AI-säkerhet (Trump bryr sig inte om AI-säkerhet, han bryr sig bara om Kina). För att ta ett axplock av rubrikerna. Det hela blir en teatralisk, lustiger dans där alla inblandade kastar den hetaste potatisen mellan sig eftersom ingen på allvar verkar vilja ta i den frågan. Den som handlar om ansvar. De stora AI-bolagen och andra som bygger AI-lösningar pratar mycket om hur ansvarsfulla de är, men det handlar nästan alltid om ansvarsfulla processer och ansvarsfull utveckling och nästan aldrig om att ta ansvar för utfallet. Inte moraliskt ansvar, utan juridiskt och ekonomiskt. Jag tycker inte man behöver vara särskilt konspiratorisk för att se AI-bolagens rop på reglering av tekniken i det ljuset. Visst, en del av AI-människorna är faktiskt rädda för AI-apokalypsen, men jag misstänker att rädslan för att ställas till svars för det som ligger i närtid är ännu större. Då skulle det nog kännas tryggare att få till regleringar och riktlinjer som man kan peka på att man följt om (när) något går snett. Som en sorts friskrivning. Men nog behöver det diskuteras mer vilket ansvar AI-bolagen har för vad deras modeller kan ställa till med. Ett ansvarsutkrävande som kan diskuteras och ske på flera olika nivåer. Det borde till att börja med vara helt självklart att AI-bolagen är ensamt ansvariga för vad deras modeller sysslar med i träning och utveckling, när allt är inom företagens egen räckvidd. Det är till exempel helt obegripligt att Hugging Face-incidenten, där Open AI:s agenter på grund av bristande styrning hackade plattformen Hugging Face i jakt på information, inte behandlas som det brott det rimligtvis är. För dataintrång är ju ett brott, även i USA, och brukar kunna leda till kännbara påföljder. Åtminstone borde saken prövas. Open AI har nu stämts av en ideell juristorganisation, men att det ens ska behövas säger någonting om hur löst ansvarfrågan hanteras. På nästa nivå är det heller inte orimligt att AI-bolagen hålls ansvariga för sina egna skarpa AI-tjänster. Exempelvis: om du ber Claude eller Chat GPT om en SWOT-analys på dina konkurrenter och modellerna börjar hacka dina konkurrenter för att få tag i information så är det AI-bolagets ansvar, inte ditt. I den här kategorin kan vi också lägga krav på adekvata skyddsvallar för att förhindra att tjänsterna används för att utveckla bomber och biovapen eller driver ungdomar att begå våld på sig själva eller andra. Även hallucinationer, missförstånd och rena felaktigheter hos modellerna lär förr eller senare bli föremål för en ansvarsdebatt. AI-bolagen lutar sig hittills på friskrivningar om att ”AI kan göra fel, kontrollera alltid resultatet” men frågan är hur länge de kan göra det. Med tillräckligt många fall av typen ”Copilot mejlade vår kundlista till en konkurrent” eller ”Claude fyllde vårt bokslut med grova fel” kommer nog kunderna att tröttna på att användaren får ta hela ansvaret själv. Jag vill inte behöva kontrollera bromsarna på min bil varje dag även om det är jag som sitter bakom ratten. Något klurigare blir det med ansvaret när företag bygger sina egna tjänster på AI-bolagens modeller. Här skiftar förstås huvudansvaret till den som bygger tjänsten och erbjuder den till sina egna kunder eller användare. Det är viktigt inte minst med tanke på det ökade användandet av öppna modeller. Samtidigt menar jag att den som utvecklat modellen fortfarande har ett ansvar för att den inte gör sådant den inte instruerats att göra, som att begå brott. (Att använda modellen för att begå brott ligger dock främst på gärningspersonen.) Så här kan man hålla på och mitt syfte är inte att komma med facit i ansvarsfrågan, mer att lyfta att det finns saker att diskutera rent konkret för att få AI-bolagen att äga sina tillkortakommanden och bli mindre vårdslösa. Och det helt utan att dra in chimärer om mänsklighetens utplåning. Regleringsmässigt ligger vi i Europa förstås redan i absolut framkant med den gigantiska AI-förordningen. Men som av en händelse har EU:s politiker börjat inse att megalagen med sitt fokus på processer och riskbedömning inte räcker till. En grupp EU-parlamentariker försöker nu få kommissionen att lägga fram en ”AI Liability Act” som just lägger ansvaret på AI-bolagen när deras modeller agerar på oförutsedda sätt. Att det här inte redan finns i AI-förordningen är ganska obegripligt (även om ”säkerhetsbrister” i AI-system ingår i EU:s produktansvarsdirektiv). Det borde snarare ha varit en utgångspunkt i lagstiftningsarbetet. ”Det som har varit fel ända från början är att man inte har beaktat ansvarsskyldigheten”, säger Axel Voss, tung tysk EU-parlamentariker. Och det är bara att hålla med. Även om det är mindre spektakulärt att diskutera vem som har ansvaret när en agent hackar en server än vem som bär ansvaret om AI utrotar mänskligheten är det första en fråga vi kan, och behöver, besvara redan nu. — Den här krönikan är hämtad ur CS Veckobrev, ett personligt nyhetsbrev med lästips, länktips och analyser skickat direkt från chefredaktör Marcus Jerrängs skrivbord.

Open original transmissionMicrosoft konstaterar i sin Digital Defense Report 2026 att just nu är det angripare som får ut mest nytta av artificiell intelligens medan försvarare ligger efter. Det hela uppmärksammades först av Bleeping Computer. Enligt Microsoft används AI i dag för att snabbare hitta och utnyttja sårbarheter, utveckla skadlig kod och automatisera olika delar av cyberattacker. Tiden från det att en sårbarhet upptäckts till att den används för attacker uppges nu ligga på under ett dygn i median. Microsoft betonar samtidigt att helt autonoma cyberattacker ännu inte förekommer. Tekniken gör också avancerade angreppsmetoder mer tillgängliga för mindre erfarna cyberkriminella. Microsoft har även sett att statsstödda hackare från bland annat Kina, Ryssland och Nordkorea använder AI inom en rad olika områden. På längre sikt räknar Microsoft med att försvarssidan kommer att få större nytta av AI. Men just nu har angriparna ett klart försprång.
Open original transmissionEn ny undersökning från Pew Research Center visar att synen på sociala mediers påverkan på demokratin har blivit allt mer negativ runt om i världen. Undersökningen baseras på svar från 45 658 personer i 37 länder mellan februari och maj 2026. I de flesta länder där det finns jämförbara siffror har andelen som ansera att sociala medier är dåliga för demokratin ökat sedan 2022 eller 2023. Mest negativ är synen i USA, där 64 procent anser att sociala medier har haft en negativ påverkan på landets demokrati. I Sverige har andelen som tycker att sociala medier är dåliga för demokratin ökat från 32 till 47 procent sedan 2022. Andelen som tycker att sociala medier är bra för demokratin har samtidigt minskat från 66 till 49 procent. Skepsisen är generellt större i rikare länder. Undersökningen visar samtidigt att många ser både för- och nackdelar med sociala medier. En median på 77 procent anser att internet och sociala medier har gjort människor bättre informerade om aktuella händelser, medan 60 procent tycker att tekniken gett människor större möjlighet att göra sina röster hörda politiskt.
Open original transmissionAmazon lovar att investera över en miljard dollar i amerikanska samhällen där bolaget bygger och driver datacenter. Satsningen kommer samtidigt som motståndet mot den snabbt växande AI-infrastrukturen ökar på flera håll i USA, rapporterar Geekwire. Pengarna ska fördelas under fem år och bland annat finansiera utbildningar, yrkesträning och energieffektivisering av bostäder, skolor och andra offentliga byggnader. Som jämförelse väntas Amazon lägga omkring 220 miljarder dollar på investeringar i år, till stor del på datacenter och AI-chipp. Amazon lovar samtidigt större insyn kring sina datacenter och upprepar sitt löfte om att stå för kostnader för den el och de uppgraderingar som anläggningarna kräver. I ett pressmeddelande varnar AWS-chefen Matt Garman för att motståndet mot datacenter kan bromsa USA:s utveckling inom artificiell intelligens. Han hävdar samtidigt att delar av kritiken bygger på felaktig information och att datacenter bland annat felaktigt pekas ut som huvudorsak till stigande priser.

Open original transmissionA trio of newly discovered backdoors walk and quack like legitimate edge solutions, so it's hard to tell they're not.
Open original transmissionOverviewRapid7 tracked a set of Linux samples that blend into the software and device conventions of the telecom environments they target. The set spans a newly observed BPFDoor variant, a BPF Rekoobe build seen against South Korean targets, a dropper, and six builds of a Linux implant we track as AVERAT, deployed against Taiwanese appliances. Additionally, we provide source code details of the Rapid7 BPFDoor controller introduced in our April 2026 blog, Stealthy BPFDoor Variants are a Needle That Looks Like Hay.The chain uses two binaries. A dropper writes a shell script to the appliance's storage mount and executes it. The script stages both payloads into /sbin under the names ntpdate and udevds, launches them, and deletes each file ten seconds later while the processes continue running. One of those payloads is the dropper itself, re-executing as a resident watchdog, leaving both processes running without an on-disk image.The dropper derives its encryption key from the string ShareTech and lives in the appliance's own add-on package directory. The BPFDoor variants seen against South Korean systems impersonate the PID file of SpamSniper, a Korean anti-spam product, and rotate through ten Linux daemon names. Across the samples, each component adopts names and conventions designed to look unremarkable in the environment it targets.The common thread is regionalized disguise: each sample is aware of the vendor’s software running on the targeted systems and implements process spoofing accordingly. Passive BPF implants avoid conventional port scans; while outbound beacons hide inside ordinary DNS, TCP, and traffic, the threat-actor(s) are leveraging SMTP to stay under the radar. Telecommunications and network-edge operators are most affected, including embedded devices such as CCTV and DVR systems that can sit close to the network core. Readers will learn how each component works, what binds the six AVERAT builds to one another, and which behaviors and indicators to hunt for.Technical analysis Rapid7 BPFDoor controllerFigure 1: Overview of BPFDoor HTTP-tunneled trigger flow through edge proxy⠀Following our introduction of the Rapid7 BPFDoor controller, published in March, this section examines new features from the reconstructed source code.Earlier BPFDoor variants relied on raw "magic bytes" (like 0x7255 or 0x5293) sitting in the TCP or UDP headers. Once security vendors wrote static network signatures (Suricata/Snort) to detect these Layer 4 anomalies, the operators began targeting the edge proxies. By wrapping the magic packet in standard HTTPS POST requests and relying on SSL offloading common in telecom environments, the trigger can be delivered to the BPFDoor-infected node in a way that may evade conventional deep packet inspection.Because proxies alter HTTP headers (adding X-Forwarded-For and changing User-Agent lengths), the malware can no longer rely on static byte offsets to find its payload. To solve this, the new controller sends fake, benign-looking web requests (e.g., POST /admin/login.aspx?id=99990) that are mathematically padded. This guarantees that the string "9999" lands at exactly offset 26 of the TCP payload consistently.The backdoor uses this "9999" as a reference point, dynamically scans for the \r\n\r\n terminator, and extracts the hex-encoded command payload from the HTTP body.The dogetlogin function contains the hardcoded paths blending in with legitimate requests:Figure 2: Hardcoded web login paths used by the dogetlogin function⠀When running, the controller spoofs the identity of /usr/sbin/abrtd via set_proc_name and PR_SET_NAME. The #ifndef SOLARIS compiles safely across different operating systems, applying the abrtd disguise only where the Linux-specific prctl function is supported.Figure 3: Process name spoofing logic applying the abrtd disguise on non-Solaris systems⠀The table below lists the Rapid7 controller flags, with new features identified relative to the TrendAI analysis marked accordingly.SwitchVariable/ActionDescription-hdestipSpecifies the target host (the infected machine's IP address) to control.-ddportSets the destination port on the infected host to send the trigger packet to.-llhostSets the remote IP address that the infected machine will connect back to (Reverse Shell).-slportSets the destination port to listen for incoming connections on the attacker's machine.-mself = 1Sets the attacker's local IP address as the remote host, automatically setting up the local listener (overwrites -l).-bbportInstructs the controller to bind to a specified TCP port locally (Bind Shell mode).-nnopass = 1Sends the packet without prompting for a password (sends an empty/hashed password).

On a match, the implant extracts the source address and connects back to the sender if the password is gZbpx0, opens a bind shell if the password is sT21xf, and otherwise defaults to a UDP knock.Strings are hidden with a rotating substitution alphabet. Decoding reveals a direct product-spoofing artifact and a set of service-name disguises. The SpamSniper /var/run/spamsniper.pid mutex, together with the sample provenance, ties this build to the South Korean cluster.List of spoofed processes:[watchdogd] /usr/sbin/chronyd /usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd --no-debug /usr/sbin/rsyslogd -n [scsi_tmf_6] /usr/sbin/crond -n /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon /usr/bin/python -Es /usr/sbin/tuned -l -p [charger_manager] [kaluad_sync]⠀SpamSniper is antispam software used mainly in South Korea, so this masquerade is consistent with targeting a Korean mail or telecom environment. The variants a37ea9897221d4495b538de72b74f2aa1d2ff09b7b6dcedd395aee58931adbf3 and 7e667ba5f9df912e02275d3cfe3809d16f822fe776f4035c84b118ebd925b1b5 share the same filter, packet parser, callback, and command paths.The data plane variantThe BPFDoor sample (a6f3b7f932761fb1fd5e74123f2482e36c65dd13e769af2ce08c65da195bfa7a) attaches a SOCK_RAW 16-BPF instructions parsing IP/TCP offsets and gates on a 14-byte payload (2B 76 C0 63 83 E9 5F E1 EE 69 3F 32 CD 94, unique per sample).Figure 4: BPF filtering for abc00922 TCP magic bytes⠀It spoofs its process name to ora_ppmond, mimicking the naming convention of Oracle-backed telecom subscriber and provisioning platforms (HSS, OSS/BSS), a disguise that only reads as legitimate on hosts actually running that class of infrastructure. Once triggered, it opens a stock Tiny Shell session and dispatches single-byte 'S'/'U'/'D' commands — interactive shell, upload, download — the same switch-case and iptables NAT-redirect staging/teardown logic found byte-for-byte in a second sample 4435fcd6862921092614dbeaa880e4192352984686ebcd98f0ba13ee8e226ef9 (the latter spoofing /sniper/snipe/bin/dtnpd and /sniper/bin/ofgmd). These samples show BPFDoor operating as a modular framework that adapts to the telecom layer it targets, integrating Tiny Shell and Rekoobe logic to support exfiltration.Figure 5: Tinyshell logic integrated into BPFDoor⠀BPF Rekoobe The sample 652508a9cf40bee883dc0e5e219dfeba71fe7dac591d01c89f74c21f73b4963f is a Rekoobe-based backdoor. It attaches a 26 BPF instruction filter, sniffing for TCP/UDP/SCTP IPv4 and UDP IPv6 traffic with source and destination ports equal 25. Strings are protected with a repeating-key XOR routine (uvTIgh47,@#R), which decodes internal markers and command tokens. The magic packet is authenticated against a 32-byte sequence: 5C A3 1E F9 72 84 DB 40 26 9F C8 35 E1 7D 0A B2 4D 68 93 0F E7 5A B4 21 8C D6 39 F2 47 1B 60 CE. C2 interactions begin by sending the following 12-byte handshake: 50 01 13 3F 08 5C 73 7B 1A 72 53 78 (decrypting to "%wGvo4GL62p*" using the XOR key above).Process names are drawn from an encrypted table and set through argv rewriting (Table 2).Spoofed process nameDescription/sniper/bin/crond -nSniper platform cron daemon/sniper/bin/earsd --startearsd — Sniper EMS/alarm daemon (Element Management System)/usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd --no-debugGeneric Linux disguise — blends on any distro/sniper/apache/bin/httpd -k startSniper's bundled Apache/sniper/snipe/bin/snipe-smtpdSniper's internal SMTP daemonTable 2: BPF Rekoobe Spoofed Process NamesOn a SpamSniper appliance, SMTP server-to-server relay traffic is the primary legitimate traffic type the appliance is designed to handle. A firewall in front of the appliance will commonly allow rules such as:ACCEPT tcp --sport 25 --dport 25 (MTA relay) ACCEPT tcp --dport 25 (inbound mail)A magic packet with src=25, dst=25 would match the first rule and reach the raw socket before any stateful inspection. The implant authors understood exactly what traffic profile would be invisible on this specific class of host.The command interface relies on the same cryptography (HMAC-SHA1, AES-CBC) and opcodes as the standard Tinyshell/Rekoobe.By setting variables like VIMINIT="set viminfo=", HISTFILE=/dev/null, HISTSIZE=0, and HISTFILESIZE=0, the malware ensures that the attacker's commands are not logged to bash history nor to vim logs. The reverse shell spoofs "/sniper/autorun/rblsmtpd --start -n 9" and connects on the attacker's port 25. Rblsmtpd is a standard daemon used by mail servers (like qmail) to block mail from IPs listed in Real-time Blackhole Lists (RBLs).A dropper likely built for ShareTech appliancesThe dropper (update:2bedc26d4b29b435c21962beed7db21188a0219a0d28334bba8b4fb1656d7b15) is an x86-64 ELF with a minimal import table — fopen, fwrite, fputs, fclose, chmod, system, strlen, sleep, access, memcpy, exit — and no networking. It is a local installer, run after access is already established.It carries four AES-128-ECB blobs keyed on the first sixteen bytes of SHA1("ShareTech"), or 6C CA D5 17 0E 3D B8 17 B3 DF 52 E0 D9 71 B1 48. The operators seeded their own key derivation with the target vendor's name.Figure 6: AES key derivation seeding routine from SHA1("ShareTech")⠀The blobs decrypt to three paths and a script:/tmp/flag (precondition gate — checked, never written) /HDD/ms6x2xTo64/updIptable.php (shell script under a .php extension) /HDD/ms6x2xTo64/execProcEnd (watchdog marker) #!/bin/sh /bin/cp -f /addpkg/sbin/update /sbin/ntpdate chmod 755 /sbin/ntpdate /sbin/ntpdate & sleep 10 rm -rf /sbin/ntpdate /bin/cp -f /addpkg/sbin/agetty /sbin/udevds chmod 755 /sbin/udevds /sbin/udevds & sleep 10 rm -rf /sbin/udevds⠀Execution is gated on one precondition: the install branch fires only when /tmp/flag already exists on the filesystem and the .php script does not. When the gate passes, the dropper writes the script to the appliance's bulk-storage mount, chmods it 0777, hands it to system(), and exits. Because system() runs sh -c against a file carrying a real shebang, /HDD must be both writable and exec-capable. A noexec mount returns EACCES, for which the shell offers no interpreter fallback.The script then copies two malicious binaries from /addpkg into /sbin as ntpdate and udevds, runs each, and unlinks them ten seconds later. Both keep running with no on-disk image: /proc//exe resolves to (deleted), so there is nothing to hash, quarantine or submit, and a responder grepping /sbin finds nothing at all.The elegant part is that /sbin/ntpdate is the dropper re-executing itself; the second instance finds the .php already present, fails the gate, and drops into a two-second watchdog that recreates execProcEnd and re-writes the script whenever either disappears. That also explains the absence of any persistence code: /addpkg/sbin/ is the appliance's own add-on package directory, so the firmware's package startup very likely relaunches it at boot.AVERAT: A modular implant reaching into ORBThe dropper copies AVERAT into /sbin/udevds, marks it executable, launches it, sleeps ten seconds, and removes it. Command and controlThe implant connects outbound to port 25 and speaks SMTP: it issues EHLO, requests STARTTLS, and only then begins its own encrypted session. On a mail security gateway, outbound SMTP to arbitrary mail exchangers is the device's core function, so the traffic is indistinguishable from legitimate work in flow records.The TLS layer is hand-built rather than linked from a standard cryptographic library. A fixed ClientHello template is compiled into the binary, including a 40-entry cipher suite list and a fixed extension ordering. Peer authentication is deferred entirely to the application layer via a shared-secret handshake carrying the magic value 1571 (0x0623).Check-ins occur every 600 to 699 seconds. Each reports hostname, current user, OS version, network interfaces, and logged-in users. The interval is stored in a hidden file at /var/lib/.db and can be changed by the operator, persisting across restarts.Figure 7: AVERAT beacon configuration details and persistent state file path structure⠀AVERAT takes its name from its only disk artifact: var, which reads as AVE when XOR-encoded (Figure 7).ConfigurationAll operational values are held in a 276-byte encrypted blob. The key is derived from the blob's own first 16 bytes, folded with a further byte and a reverse XOR cascade; that key seeds RC4's key-scheduling algorithm, and the resulting S-box is used directly as a keystream. Each field starts at its own keystream offset, and the parity of that offset selects whether bytes are bitwise-inverted or nibble-rotated before the XOR.Decrypted, the blob yields three 16-byte keys (transport, authentication, and a secondary handshake secret), the host table, the port table, a three-byte build tag, the timing state, and the .db path.Figure 8: Key derivation and keystream offset mapping⠀The schema provides three host and port pairs; this build populates one.Figure 9: Decrypted AVERAT host and port table configuration slots⠀Rapid7 developed an extractor for the AVERAT family. Figure 10 shows the results for the samples identified at the time of writing.Figure 10: AVERAT extractor results and sample hashes identified at the time of writing⠀The MAC key and aux key are byte-identical in all six, while only one stream key is shared between a pair (Figure 10).Command setCommand codes are uint16 values grouped into bands by subsystem.

Scan data shows all three sitting in Chunghwa Telecom's HiNet address space (AS3462), in three separate Taiwanese cities — Tainan, Banqiao and Taoyuan — each representing a distinct class of neglected, internet-facing consumer or SMB appliance.59.125.211.65 is a Synology NAS belonging to a Taiwanese fuel-retail business, still serving a Laravel-based "cloud management system" on 81/82 behind a Let's Encrypt certificate that expired in October 2021, alongside an exposed MariaDB 5.5.62 instance that reached end of life in 2020. 122.116.138.33 is an embedded Taiwanese ADSL/FTTH SMB network appliance — gSOAP 2.8 on 8000 with a recording-management interface, HTTP Basic realms named SMB on 8081, 8082 and 10443, and a self-signed NetKlass Technology certificate valid from 2004 to 2014, MD5-signed with a 1024-bit key. 1.34.200.85 is a Dahua DH-XVR5116HS-I3 recorder. These are victim hosts repurposed as operational relays, selected on consistent criteria: reachable, unpatched, unmonitored, and unlikely to be audited.The detail that binds them is PPTP on 1723, present on all three, returning a byte-identical banner (Firmware: 1, Hostname: local, Vendor: linux, fingerprint 261189147). A Dahua XVR ships no PPTP server. Synology's DSM offers one only as an optional package, disabled by default and deprecated in current releases. We assess this as operator-installed, which makes each node dual-purpose: an outbound relay terminating SMTP-disguised implant traffic, and an inbound routed VPN foothold into the host's own LAN. Combined with the RAT's own proxy commands, the campaign has relay capability at both ends of the connection.The campaign is running two distinct C2 addressing strategies:StrategySamplesTrade-offAttacker-registered domainbf8135f4, 2fe2dd40, a65048ebSurvives IP churn, re-pointable via DNS — leaves a seizable, sinkholable, monitorable nameHardcoded consumer-broadband IP4925bcca, a4379e11, 925c0418No DNS artifact at all, brittle against address rotationTable 5: C2 Addressing Strategies ComparisonThe relay layer is composed of consumer and small-business broadband CPE: a fuel retailer's NAS, an obsolete NetKlass appliance, and a CCTV recorder, each sitting on a domestic-grade line.AVERAT's command-and-control infrastructure matches the device-class profile that CISA, NCSC-UK, and partner agencies described in their April 2026 joint advisory (AA26-113A) as the standard building blocks of China-nexus covert/ORB networks: end-of-life NAS, edge appliances, and DVRs chosen because their vulnerabilities will never be patched. We found no infrastructure or indicator overlap with any specific named ORB network (LapDogs/UAT-7810, SPACEHOP, or FLORAHOX), whose documented targeting instead centers on SOHO routers; AVERAT's infrastructure is consistent with the broader ORB device-class pattern rather than confirmed membership in a known network.Operator tradecraftThree design decisions indicate operational maturity.The dispatcher terminates the process on any unrecognized command code. This is inexpensive to implement and raises the cost of interactive probing or automated scanning against a live implant.Support for ten concurrent shell sessions is consistent with provisioning for parallel operator access rather than a single interactive session..The reboot handler calls sync() before forcing a restart through the kernel rather than through init. Flushing filesystem buffers before destroying volatile state is the behavior of an operator who knows precisely which artifacts persist across a restart and which do not — and in this chain everything happens in memory while the persistence needed to re-establish access is on disk.Detection guidanceFile-based detection on the appliance is unlikely to succeed, because no payload persists in /sbin. We recommend prioritizing the following.On the host, hunt for processes whose executable has been unlinked, which on Linux presents as a (deleted) suffix on the /proc//exe target. To catch fileless and unlinked process execution, monitor process descriptors for instances where /proc//exe points to an unlinked path, and inspect memory maps for executable pages lacking backing file paths on disk. Additionally, alert on the presence of .db state files and dropper artifacts: the directory /HDD/ms6x2xTo64/, a shell script carrying a .php extension whose first bytes are #!/bin/sh, and a marker file execProcEnd containing the literal string end. A process-tree sequence of sh -c on a .php path, followed by cp and chmod into /sbin and an rm -rf of the same path within roughly ten seconds, provides high-fidelity detection of the staging sequence.On the network, outbound SMTP from an appliance to mail-role hostnames that resolve to consumer-grade or embedded devices warrants investigation on its own.Mitigation Investigate unexpected raw packet sockets and classic BPF filters on Linux systems that do not require packet capture. Review outbound TCP port-25 callbacks from processes that are not mail services, particularly when the process renames itself to a common daemon or creates hidden PID and socket markers. Preserve short-lived staged binaries and collect process arguments, open file descriptors, socket metadata, and historical DNS records. Restrict management access to routers, DVRs, and other edge appliances, and monitor NFS or SMB mounts that could let an adjacent host write executables onto an embedded device.MITRE ATT&CK techniquesTechniqueEvidenceT1584.008 Compromise Infrastructure: Network DevicesAVERAT C2 relays T1133 External Remote ServicesPPTP on 1723 on all three AVERAT C2 relaysT1480 Execution GuardrailsDropper, BPFDoorT1059.004 Unix ShellAVERAT T1129 Shared ModulesAVERAT T1037 Boot or Logon Initialization ScriptsDropper T1205 Traffic SignalingBPFDoorT1205.002 Traffic Signaling: Socket FiltersBPFDoorT1070.004 File DeletionDropper T1070.003 Clear Command HistoryAVERAT, BPFDoorT1070.006 TimestompBPFDoor T1036.004 Masquerade Task or ServiceBPFDoor T1036.005 Match Legitimate Name or LocationBPFDoor, DropperT1564.001 Hidden Files and DirectoriesAVERATT1027 Obfuscated Files or InformationBPFDoor, AVERAT T1027.013 Encrypted/Encoded FileDropper, AVERAT T1140 Deobfuscate/Decode Files or InformationAVERAT T1562.004 Disable or Modify System FirewallBPFDoor T1083 File and Directory DiscoveryAVERATT1057 Process DiscoveryAVERAT T1082 System Information DiscoveryAVERAT T1033 System Owner/User DiscoveryAVERAT T1016 System Network Configuration DiscoveryAVERATT1005 Data from Local SystemDropperT1041 Exfiltration Over C2 ChannelAVERAT T1030 Data Transfer Size LimitsAVERATT1105 Ingress Tool TransferAVERAT T1071.003 Application Layer Protocol: Mail ProtocolsAVERAT T1573.001 Encrypted Channel: Symmetric CryptographyAVERAT, RekoobeT1090 ProxyAVERAT T1008 Fallback ChannelsAVERATT1529 System Shutdown/RebootAVERAT T1489 Service StopAVERATTable 6: MITRE ATT&CK Techniques and EvidenceIndicators of compromiseTypeValueRoleSHA-2562bedc26d4b29b435c21962beed7db21188a0219a0d28334bba8b4fb1656d7b15Dropper /addpkg/sbin/updateSHA-256bf8135f46ecedfe5bd06fcecbb2e721c2367ff765b18f4aa3f868e6597f49e47AVERATSHA-2564925bcca085ec504f51191645da278d8e96698d91f3c6df44146336c697b4de8AVERATSHA-256a4379e115d3c4420f5d4b92561022d6e0897990e7297be65c033d47de68e6a6aAVERATSHA-256925c041807d4fb9dfe2ad84f963c2a4c60ea1289f6a0bdccbfb944478ffc2cf2AVERATSHA-2562fe2dd402ee6f9c578fce6dd4b36daaa407e99133e5dd502f2afca80feb60150AVERATSHA-256a65048eb30661e27f8edc2dd8d8c77ec87faec1f1750f6e04e7ecaf069a32858AVERATTable 7: File Indicators — TW clusterSHA-256Familya37ea9897221d4495b538de72b74f2aa1d2ff09b7b6dcedd395aee58931adbf3SpamSniper BPFDoor sniffer7e667ba5f9df912e02275d3cfe3809d16f822fe776f4035c84b118ebd925b1b5SpamSniper BPFDoor sniffer652508a9cf40bee883dc0e5e219dfeba71fe7dac591d01c89f74c21f73b4963fRekoobe, dual port-25 BPF filter4435fcd6862921092614dbeaa880e4192352984686ebcd98f0ba13ee8e226ef9Data plane BPFDoora6f3b7f932761fb1fd5e74123f2482e36c65dd13e769af2ce08c65da195bfa7aData plane BPFDoorTable 8: File Indicators — SK ClusterTypeValueNotesDomainmx.zxopfds.comAVERAT C2Domainspam.suwaccqi.comAVERAT C2Domainmx1.wwstifsteel.comAVERAT C2 IPv459.125.211.65AVERAT C2 IPv4122.116.138.33AVERAT C2IPv41.34.200.85AVERAT C2PortTCP/25default AVERAT C2 portTable 9: Network Indicators of CompromisePathNotesupdIptable.phpShell script under a .php extension/HDD/ms6x2xTo64/execProcEndWatchdog marker/tmp/flagDropper precondition /var/lib/.dbAVERAT state file (bf8135f4, 925c0418, 2fe2dd40)/var/lib/.senchaAVERAT state file (4925bcca)/var/lib/.usAVERAT state file (a4379e11)/var/lib/.aAVERAT state file (a65048eb)/var/run/spamsniper.pidBPFDoor mutex/sbin/ntpdate, /sbin/udevdsStaging names/addpkg/sbin/update, /addpkg/sbin/agettyDropper and AVERAT payload locations Table 10: Host ArtifactsValueMeaning5d 0c f9 47 e4 ea 7b 18 1b ed 5e b1 fb 5c 56 3fAVERAT MAC key 6b 6a 48 0e f8 ae 5f 1b 38 e6 c0 94 86 df e3 45AVERAT aux key 00 80 04 00AVERAT beacon tag1571 / 0x0623AVERAT protocol magicTable 11: Cryptographic and Protocol ConstantsRapid7 customersYARA rules and more IoCs are available in Rapid7’s Intelligence Hub along with ongoing intelligence on the latest campaigns.What defenders should take away from these campaignsThe components form a modular access ecosystem. The dropper executes AVERAT, which beacons to changeable infrastructure, while BPFDoor and Rekoobe samples wait for a magic packet before opening interactive access.Across both campaigns, the network edge is a consistent focus. Each targets mail-security appliances that sit inline in front of the mail server, giving an implant positioned there visibility into an organization’s inbound and outbound traffic. Both also use port 25 to blend into expected SMTP activity, although the mechanism differs between the campaigns. In either case, command-and-control traffic can hide within a protocol that is normal for the device and may therefore attract less scrutiny.This fits the broader BPFDoor pattern, where compromised IoT and SMB devices, including NAS units and DVRs, can act as operational relays that obscure the true source of magic-packet traffic before it reaches the passive backdoor. Newer samples also show how the malware continues to adapt to the environments it targets, including a second userland-level magic-packet check layered on top of the kernel BPF gate.Rapid7 Variant G provides another example of that adaptation. It uses three BPF filters to preserve operational resilience on high-traffic edge nodes, with the filters left unoptimized because the libpcap version running on its end-of-life targets does not support filter optimization.For defenders, the most useful detection opportunities remain raw packet sockets, BPF filters, port-25 callbacks from unexpected processes, process masquerading, and appliance-specific staging paths. Specific attribution should remain an ongoing assessment as new samples and infrastructure emerge.

Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied. While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria. Aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA’s KEV Nomination Form. Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance.
