NVIDIA is warning users to activate System Level Error-Correcting Code mitigation to protect against Rowhammer attacks on graphical processors with GDDR6 memory. The company is reinforcing the recommendation as new research published by the University of Toronto demonstrates the practicallity of Rowhammer attacks against an NVIDIA A6000 GPU (graphical processing unit). “We ran GPUHammer on an NVIDIA RTX A6000 (48 GB GDDR6) across four DRAM banks and observed 8 distinct single-bit flips, and bit-flips across all tested banks,” describe the researchers. “The minimum activation count ( TRH) to induce a flip was ~12K, consistent with prior DDR4 findings.” “Using these flips, we performed…
60% of organizations rate their Microsoft 365 security as “established” or “advanced”, according to CoreView. Yet, 60% of those same organizations haveexperienced account compromise attacks. The Microsoft 365 attack surface is wide and unpredictable. Risks can come from any direction, whether it’s the complexity of managing multiple tenants, the explosion of Entra apps with broad permissions, or inconsistent enforcement of security controls like MFA. These issues are often worsened by limited visibility, manual oversight, and a lack of cohesive governance. Even small missteps, like an unmonitored configuration change or an overlooked admin role, can introduce serious vulnerabilities. 49% of IT…
Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization is no longer a concept reserved for whitepapers. As traditional financial institutions look to digitize ownership, blockchain projects are racing to provide the infrastructure for global, interoperable markets.

The United States Department of Justice this week released nearly 11 hours of what it described as “full raw” surveillance footage from a camera positioned near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead. The release was intended to address conspiracy theories about Epstein’s apparent suicide in federal custody. But instead of putting those suspicions to rest, it may fuel them further.Metadata embedded in the video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing…

Traditional HAZOP analysis is not designed for intentional failures or coordinated multi-node events. This matters more than ever. Brief Procedure Description of the Traditional HAZOP HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) is a structured method for identifying potential hazards and operational issues in process plants, such as in petrochemicals. The procedure typically proceeds as follows: Preparation: Define the scope, gather documentation (e.g., P&IDs), and assemble a multidisciplinary team (engineers, operators, safety experts). Node Selection: Divide the process into manageable ‘nodes’ (e.g., a pipe, vessel, furnace, or unit). Application of Guide Words: For each node, combine parameters (e.g., flow, pressure, temperature) with…
