Apple Drops Spyware Case Against NSO Group, Citing Risk of Threat Intelligence Exposure

Apple has filed a motion to "voluntarily" dismiss its lawsuit against commercial spyware vendor NSO Group, citing a shifting risk landscape that could lead to exposure of critical "threat intelligence" information. The development was first reported by The Washington Post on Friday. The iPhone maker said its efforts, coupled with those of others in the industry and national governments to tackle

How Red Hat is integrating post-quantum cryptography into our products

In a previous post-quantum (PQ) article, we introduced the threat that quantum computing presents for any systems, networks and applications that utilize cryptography. In this article, you’ll learn what you can do to assist your organization in achieving crypto-agility with Red Hat and what to expect of Red Hat products as we begin to integrate post-quantum cryptographic functions into them.The capabilities described in the following sections assume timely and functional implementation of industry standards and specifications and the libraries that implement them. If these are not achieved,

Mandos Encrypted File System Unattended Reboot Utility 1.8.17

The Mandos system allows computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote or unattended reboots. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network. All network communication is encrypted using TLS. The clients are identified by the server using an OpenPGP key that is unique to each client. The server sends the clients an encrypted password. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using the same OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7009-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 7009-1 - Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

TrickMo Android Trojan Exploits Accessibility Services for On-Device Banking Fraud

Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a new variant of an Android banking trojan called TrickMo that comes packed with new capabilities to evade analysis and display fake login screens to capture victims' banking credentials. "The mechanisms include using malformed ZIP files in combination with JSONPacker," Cleafy security researchers Michele Roviello and Alessandro Strino said. "In addition,

Say Goodbye to Phishing: Must-Haves to Eliminate Credential Theft

Even as cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, the number one attack vector for unauthorized access remains phished credentials (Verizon DBIR, 2024). Solving this problem resolves over 80% of your corporate risk, and a solution is possible.  However, most tools available on the market today cannot offer a complete defense against this attack vector because they were architected to

For Just $20, Researchers Seize Part of Internet Infrastructure

Their findings highlight the frailty of some of the mechanisms for establishing trust on the Internet.
