As a developer, tell me if you relate to this – Docker commands are easy to understand but difficult to apply meaningfully. Out of the countless tutorials that I followed, most stopped at syntax, leaving me unsure about what to build next.

I quickly found that the fastest way to understand containers, images, networking, and Docker Compose is to build small but practical projects…

At Cisco, we are dedicated to working with the full range of ecosystem participants. This includes the traditional hyperscalers, as well as these newer neocloud providers and foundational model builders. It also includes communications service providers, colocation providers, and…

A new sample of the ToneShell backdoor, typically seen in Chinese cyberespionage campaigns, has been delivered through a kernel-mode loader in attacks against government organizations. The backdoor has been attributed to the Mustang Panda group, also known as HoneyMyte or Bronze President, that usually targets government agencies, NGOs, think tanks, and other high-profile organizations worldwide. Security researchers at Kaspersky analyzed a malicious file driver found on computer systems in Asia and discovered that it has been used in campaigns since at least February 2025 against government organizations in Myanmar, Thailand, and other Asian countries. Evidence showed that the compromised entities had prior infections with older…

Acetaldehyde is an essential chemical building block that plays a major role in modern manufacturing. It is commonly produced using the ethylene-based Wacker oxidation process, a method that is expensive and carries significant environmental drawbacks. Converting bioethanol into acetaldehyde through selective oxidation offers a more sustainable alternative, but most existing catalysts face a familiar problem. When activity increases, selectivity often drops, leaving acetaldehyde yields below 90%. More than ten years ago, researchers Liu and Hensen demonstrated an important advance using an Au/MgCuCr2O4 catalyst. Their work revealed a specific Au0-Cu+ interaction that delivered acetaldehyde yields exceeding 95% at 250°C, while remaining…
