As a Cloud Service Provider, your value proposition is shifting. It’s no longer just about providing “space” for workloads; it’s about providing a secure, high-performance platform for the AI era. With the launch of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.1, VMware vDefend introduces critical enhancements that allow you to deliver self-service, high-performance lateral security across both VMs and Kubernetes, creating new revenue streams while reducing operational overhead. 1. Enhanced Throughput for High-Performance AI and Non-AI Workloads AI Workloads AI and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads demand massive distributed throughput. Traditional, centralized, appliance-based security often becomes a bottleneck for modern distributed workloads, both…
An elusive hacker who went by the handle “UNKN” and ran the early Russian ransomware groups GandCrab and REvil now has a name and a face. Authorities in Germany say 31-year-old Russian Daniil Maksimovich Shchukin headed both cybercrime gangs and helped carry out at least 130 acts of computer sabotage and extortion against victims across the country between 2019 and 2021. Shchukin was named as UNKN (a.k.a. UNKNOWN) in an advisory published by the German Federal Criminal Police (the “Bundeskriminalamt” or BKA for short). The BKA said Shchukin and another Russian — 43-year-old Anatoly Sergeevitsch Kravchuk — extorted nearly $2…
This is particularly relevant for agentic AI. With machine-centric workflows, infrastructure needs to support systems that act, call tools, retrieve data, and make several intermediate decisions before producing an outcome. These workflows themselves create new latencies and can come with their own costs. They also place demand on observability and control, because the path between request and response isn’t a deterministic code call. Data sovereignty adds another layer, one that’s of increased importance in territories like the Middle East and Europe. Requirements change by jurisdiction, sector, and individual policy. For enterprises in regulated industries or the public-sector anywhere in the…
Later this year, Apple is set to debut its first MacBook Pro redesign since 2021. With that redesign, we’re expecting OLED, touch displays, M6 Pro and M6 Max chips, a Dynamic Island cutout, and much more. There’s another big detail about these new MacBook Pro models, and I’m much more excited for that change. They should be thinner With the redesigned MacBook Pro, Apple should be making them thinner and lighter. Not by much probably, but hopefully enough to make them ever so slightly more portable. I’ve never really taken much issue with the thickness and weight of the 14-inch…
Open source software underpins nearly every modern application, including frameworks powering the most popular websites, to the libraries securing financial backend systems. However, while open source drives collaboration and innovation at a global scale, it also faces deep challenges in sustainability, community health, and long-term maintenance. Many of the world’s most critical dependencies are still maintained by just a handful of volunteers. Abby Cabunoc Mayes leads Open Source Maintainer Programs at GitHub, and Brian Muenzenmeyer is a Principal Engineer, Node.js maintainer, and author of the book, Approachable Open Source. Abby and Brian join Josh Goldberg to talk about what it…
For more than 100 years, scientists have been trying to understand cosmic rays, incredibly powerful particles that travel across the universe at extreme energies. Despite decades of research, many questions about where they come from and how they are accelerated remain unanswered. Now, researchers working with the DAMPE (Dark Matter Particle Explorer) space telescope have uncovered an important new clue. Their findings, published in Nature, reveal a common feature shared by these mysterious particles and could help scientists better understand their origins. Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles ever observed in nature. They carry far more energy than particles…
Autonomous vehicles are moving rapidly into commercial mobility, driven by advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI), sensors, connectivity, and demand for safer, more efficient transportation. Waymo, Alphabet’s autonomous-driving company, reported more than 250,000 autonomous trips per week across Phoenix, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Austin in 2025, and later said it had begun serving over one million fully autonomous rides every month. But as the AV industry scales, safety is becoming the real enterprise test. The enterprise challenge is no longer just building the AV technology ; it is proving that it can operate safely, consistently, and transparently across unpredictable environments. Reach out to discuss this topic in depth. Recent incidents show how…
Researchers at the University of Sheffield are helping lead what officials describe as the country’s biggest independent effort yet to better understand gambling harm and reduce its impact across Britain. The new Gambling Harms Research UK Evidence Centre brings together academics from Sheffield, Glasgow, Swansea and King’s College London. Funding comes through the government’s statutory Gambling Levy and is backed by UK Research and Innovation as ministers continue rolling out reforms from the Gambling White Paper. Researchers involved in the program say the goal is to give policymakers, health services and charities stronger evidence about which interventions genuinely reduce harm…
1 New joint venture between AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon in the US reflects industry momentum around satellite-enabled mobile connectivity and broader ecosystem development, reckon analysts. In sum – what to know: Shared D2D push – AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile plan a joint venture aimed at reducing coverage gaps through satellite-based direct-to-device connectivity and shared spectrum resources. Ecosystem expansion – Dell’Oro said the initiative could accelerate a broader nationwide D2D ecosystem while improving economics for carriers and satellite operators. Satellite industry backing – AST SpaceMobile welcomed the announcement, positioning itself as a potential enabler of future space-based cellular broadband expansion. U.S.…
Read this article in Thai Artificial Intelligence or AI has dramatically changed the classroom atmosphere in many schools. “Wow! This is amazing!” This is just one of the reactions from young students as their teacher demonstrates how AI features of Microsoft Immersive Reader, a Microsoft AI tool, helps them focus and read with greater ease and confidence. As a result, classroom energy remains high. Students are now more engaged and enthusiastic. Behind the scenes, teachers also experience a transformation of their own. With AI-powered tools supporting different learning needs, they have discovered ways to spend less time on routine tasks,…
