Elastic Defend now covers 800+ vulnerable drivers, with automated troubleshooting and ARM support

VTBC ┋
Attackers reaching for kernel access on a Windows machine bring a driver Microsoft already trusts. It is signed, it loads, and it carries a known flaw. That flaw gives them enough room to tamper with memory or disable the security software watching the host. Once an attacker holds that level of access, the tools on the machine stop reliably protecting it. Ransomware crews run the technique as a step before they deploy a payload, a … More →

New technology enables light to be stored, delayed, and controlled within a single photonic chip, with potential applications in low-power optical computing for AI servers and next-generation optical communication systems. Light moves quickly enough to transmit enormous amounts of information, but that speed creates a problem when a computer needs to hold, delay, or synchronize [...] Explore the content: http://dlvr.it/TTjGWB

A Fiber Frozen at -196°C Unlocks a New Way To Store Light

VTBC ┋
Image
A frozen-core optical fiber has revealed a powerful new way to control interactions between light and sound. Molten lava hardens into rock as it cools, much as the surface of a lake freezes during a cold winter. In both cases, a liquid becomes a solid, changing physical properties such as density and refractive index, which [...] Explore the content: http://dlvr.it/TTjfg9
