We may earn a commission from links on this page. The Apple Vision Pro is a beast of a machine. By putting an M5 chip under the hood—a 3-nanometer processor with a 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU, and 16-core Neural Engine— Apple leapfrogged the M3 and M4 entirely, putting more raw power on your face than most people have on their desks. But like any high-performance machine, you have to tune it up and drive it right to get the most out of what’s under the hood. Whether you’ve had yours since launch or just unboxed it, these ten hacks will…

CERT-EU confirmed that ShinyHunters are behind the recent breach of the cloud infrastructure underpinning websites of the European Commission, and that they stole and subsequently leaked approximately 340 GB of data. “Analysis of the published dataset has so far confirmed the presence of personal data, including lists of names, last names, usernames, and email addresses, predominantly from the European Commission’s websites but potentially pertaining to users across multiple Union entities,” European Union’s CERT said. “The dataset also contains at least 51,992 files related to outbound email communications, totalling 2.22 GB. The majority of these are automated notifications with little to…

The Qilin ransomware group has stolen data from Die Linke, a German democratic socialist political party, and is threatening to leak it. On March 27, a day after the threat actor compromised its network, the party disclosed a cyber incident but stopped short of confirming a data breach. Founded in 2007, the Die Linke (Left Party) is currently represented in the German parliament (Bundestag) through 64 members. It has 123,000 registered members and participates in several state governments, especially in eastern Germany. “According to current findings, the attackers aim to publish sensitive data from the internal areas of the party…

The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien are some of the most beloved books of the past century, and basically responsible for launching the high fantasy genre as we still know it. Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy is celebrated to this day, but every attempt to bring Tolkien’s world to the screen since then has stumbled. The Hobbit movie trilogy, while profitable, stretched out a short, charming book far too thin, and 2024’s animated feature The War of the Rohirrim made so few waves this may be the first you’re hearing about…

The mobile device attack surface is wide, fragmented, and not adequately controlled. There are two sides to any coin. Security is the same. To defend any attack surface, you must understand both the condition of the surface on one side, and also the type and scale of attacks against it on the other. Jamf’s report on mobile devices, a retrospective across 2025, does just this. For one side of the coin, it examines the state of iOS and Android devices from a sample group of more than 1.7 million mobile devices (from within its own customer footprint). For the other…

It used to be that Google searches opened up a world of questions. You searched, sifted through links, and came to your own conclusion. Today, AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other AI platforms compress multiple sources into a single, synthesized response. In the process, nuance is flattened, and certain viewpoints can be overrepresented. This marks a fundamental shift in online reputation management. Search engines now shape the information they surface. The result is a rise in zero-click behavior, where users accept AI-generated answers without visiting underlying sources. For brands, that changes the stakes. Visibility no longer guarantees influence. Even a…

Legal intern Raj Gambhir was the principal author of this post. The Trump administration has restricted the First Amendment right to record law enforcement by issuing an unprecedented nationwide flight restriction preventing private drone operators, including professional and citizen journalists, from flying drones within half a mile of any ICE or CBP vehicle. In January, EFF and media organizations including The New York Times and The Washington Post responded to this blatant infringement of the First Amendment by demanding that the FAA lift this flight restriction. Over two months later, we’re still waiting for the FAA to respond to our…

Ravie LakshmananApr 03, 2026Linux / Server Hardening Threat actors are increasingly using HTTP cookies as a control channel for PHP-based web shells on Linux servers and to achieve remote code execution, according to findings from the Microsoft Defender Security Research Team. “Instead of exposing command execution through URL parameters or request bodies, these web shells rely on threat actor-supplied cookie values to gate execution, pass instructions, and activate malicious functionality,” the tech giant said. The approach offers added stealth as it allows malicious code to stay dormant during normal application execution and activate the web shell logic only when specific cookie values are present.…
