I’m excited to announce Amazon S3 Files, a new file system that seamlessly connects any AWS compute resource with Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). More than a decade ago, as an AWS trainer, I spent countless hours explaining the fundamental differences between object storage and file systems. My favorite analogy was comparing S3 objects to books in a library (you can’t edit a page, you need to replace the whole book) versus files on your computer that you can modify page by page. I drew diagrams, created metaphors, and helped customers understand why they needed different storage types for…
Ravie LakshmananApr 10, 2026Malware / Blockchain Cybersecurity researchers have flagged yet another evolution of the ongoing GlassWorm campaign, which employs a new Zig dropper that’s designed to stealthily infect all integrated development environments (IDEs) on a developer’s machine. The technique has been discovered in an Open VSX extension named “specstudio.code-wakatime-activity-tracker,” which masquerades as WakaTime, a popular tool that measures the time programmers spend inside their IDE. The extension is no longer available for download. “The extension […] ships a Zig-compiled native binary alongside its JavaScript code,” Aikido Security researcher Ilyas Makari said in an analysis published this week. “This is not the first time GlassWorm has resorted to using…
Over the last several years, fusion power has gone from the butt of jokes — always a decade away! — to an increasingly tangible and tantalizing technology that has drawn investors off the sidelines. The technology may be challenging to master and expensive to build today, but fusion promises to harness the nuclear reaction that powers the sun to generate nearly limitless energy here on Earth. If startups are able to complete commercially viable fusion power plants, then they have the potential to upend trillion-dollar markets. The bullish wave buoying the fusion industry has been driven by three advances: more…

Mobile apps have become a primary interface for critical services, including banking, payments, and healthcare. Unlike web applications, much of the logic and intellectual property in a mobile app lives directly on the user’s device, which is an environment the developer doesn’t control. That makes mobile apps uniquely exposed to reverse engineering, runtime manipulation, and fraud. As more critical functionality shifts to mobile, the need to harden apps against sophisticated attackers continues to grow. Guardsquare builds tools to protect and test mobile applications against both static and dynamic threats. Its platform has features including layered code obfuscation, runtime application self-protection,…
New rules introduced by the Central Bank should make it easier for customers to deal with insurance claims and in turn, help consumers reach fairer insurance settlements. In addition, the new rules around insurance quotes will make it easier for customers to understand how certain actions, such as accumulating penalty points – or paying insurance premiums monthly rather than upfront – could make their insurance premiums more expensive. This is according to the insurance broker Gallagher, which is advising consumers to get up to speed on the new rules being introduced under the Central Bank’s revised Consumer Protection Code (CPC),…
By many estimates, quantum computers will need millions of qubits to realize their potential in applications in cybersecurity, drug development, and other industries. The problem is, anyone who has wanted to simultaneously control millions of a certain kind of qubits has run into the problem of trying to control millions of laser beams. That’s exactly the challenge scientists from MIT, the University of Colorado at Boulder, Sandia National Laboratories, and the MITRE Corporation were trying to overcome when they developed an image projection technology that they realized could also be the fix for a host of other challenges in augmented…

Validating Kafka configurations before production deployment can be challenging. In this post, we introduce the workload simulation workbench for Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) Express Broker. The simulation workbench is a tool that you can use to safely validate your streaming configurations through realistic testing scenarios. Solution overview Varying message sizes, partition strategies, throughput requirements, and scaling patterns make it challenging for you to predict how your Apache Kafka configurations will perform in production. The traditional approaches to test these variables create significant barriers: ad-hoc testing lacks consistency, manual set up of temporary clusters is time-consuming and…
