ESET researchers analyzed the robust EDR-killing toolset of the ransomware-as-a-service gang Gentlemen. Since the beginning of 2026, Gentlemen has emerged as one of the most active gangs in the ransomware ecosystem. The group distinguishes itself through a mature, operator-maintained set of endpoint detection and response (EDR) killers, i.e., tools for disrupting security software. Additionally, unlike most top-tier gangs, Gentlemen does not exhibit a strong US-centric victimology, instead targeting victims across Southeast Asia, South America, and Western Europe. While there have been multiple reports covering Gentlemen in recent months, they have not focused on a detailed analysis of the group’s EDR…

Industrial facilities face increasing scrutiny over environmental protection and financial risk management. A single oil spill can cost millions in cleanup expenses, trigger severe regulatory penalties and create long-term environmental liability. An effective oil containment system is a strategic investment in both ecological stewardship and the financial stability of facility operations. The High Cost of an Industrial Oil Spill The financial impact of an industrial oil spill extends well beyond immediate cleanup expenses. Federal regulators have significantly increased liability limits to reflect the true cost of environmental damage. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management recently increased the limit for offshore…

The rise of 3D printing and incredibly powerful — yet dirt-cheap — microcontrollers has given makers the ability to build amazing things right at home. It no longer takes multi-million dollar equipment only available to industry — we can bring our dreams to life for a few hundred dollars. But as technology marches on, limitations are popping back up. Everything is getting smaller, making it almost impossible to work with at home. It takes wizard-level skills to hand-solder components with an 0201 footprint as it is. What do we do when components get even smaller in the future?We’ll need new…

Posted by Matthew Forsythe, Director Product Management, Android App SafetyLast year, we introduced Android developer verification to strengthen ecosystem security and stop malicious actors from hiding behind anonymity to release harmful apps. Millions of apps have been registered since the verification launched in March, covering nearly all installs on Google Play and a large majority of installs from outside of Google Play. We appreciate the feedback and partnership from industry leaders, developers, and Android communities that helped us design this experience and drive strong adoption.Initial launch across seven stores and four countries These new developer verification protections will take effect…

Nobody files a ticket that says “our architecture has an abstraction problem.” They file tickets saying the data is wrong, or missing, or late. So engineering spends two weeks chasing a data-quality issue that does not exist, fixes nothing, and the same ticket comes back the following quarter wearing a slightly different hat. That was us. The most useful thing I learned from the whole effort is that the bug was never in the data. It was in what we were asking the data to be. We had an on-premises MongoDB instance serving as the registered golden source for enterprise…

Superconductors could one day help power a new generation of ultra-efficient electronics, but major technical hurdles have kept the technology largely confined to research labs. Now, scientists at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a new approach that tackles one of the field’s biggest challenges: maintaining superconductivity at higher temperatures while also resisting strong magnetic fields. The advance could help move superconducting technologies closer to practical use in electronics, energy systems, and quantum devices. Modern digital devices, data centers, and information and communications technology (ICT) networks are responsible for an estimated 6 to 12 percent of global electricity…

To grow, or to grow less? The PC industry is not growing (outside of Cupertino), and Apple and its investors already know that the inordinately high customer satisfaction ratings its platforms enjoy mean that when people switch to them they tend to stick around. That’s why it matters that Cook highlighted record switchers and first-time platform users during the company’s most recent fiscal call. Apple is growing new customers, people who are likely to sign-up for services, accessories, and future upgrades. Winning the customer is an investment in future performance. When it comes to increasing prices, we’ve seen some gentle experimentation in…

When Kubernetes first came onto the scene, it was a major turning point, a revision of the infrastructure and operations space that transformed the way developers and ops personnel build, deploy, and maintain applications in the cloud. It has since become the clear standard for how modern applications are built and operated. As the CNCF noted in its latest Annual Cloud Native Survey report, “Among container users, 82% are using Kubernetes in production in 2025, up from 66% in 2023. This represents near-universal adoption within the container ecosystem.”Over the last few years, another revision in the space has occurred with…

AI coding assistants are transforming software development, but data engineering presents unique challenges: governed data access, shared compute environments, and compliance controls that are designed to remain in place. How do you bring the power of agentic AI development into a governed data environment? With the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio Code, you can connect Kiro, VS Code, or Cursor directly to Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio. When you connect your editor to a SageMaker Unified Studio Space (a cloud-based compute environment inside your project), you get AI-assisted development with your preferred tools while your data governance, project permissions, and compute…
