An Iran-linked hacking group has been active inside the networks of several US organizations since early February, raising concerns that the activity could precede broader cyber operations connected to escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. New backdoors used by Seedworm Symantec and Carbon Black researchers have attributed the activity to Seedworm (aka MuddyWater), an Iranian advanced persistent threat (APT) group that has been linked to Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS), and is known for espionage campaigns targeting government agencies, telecommunications companies, and critical infrastructure. According to researchers, suspicious activity linked to Seedworm has been identified on the…

Google’s self-referencing in AI Mode has risen to more than three times its level nine months ago, according to a new SE Ranking report analyzing 1.3 million citations. Google now accounts for 17% of all AI Mode citations, more than YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, Amazon, Indeed, and Zillow combined. When YouTube is included, Google-owned properties make up roughly 20% of all sources. SE Ranking’s AI Mode report in July showed Google properties accounted for 5% of AI Mode links. At that time, 97% of those Google links pointed to Google Business Profiles. That composition has changed, as SE Ranking’s new data…

Remember when the cloud really took off in the world of tech? The idea of remotely storing files on another server was nothing new, but when companies started telling us that saving files to our local filesystem was so passe and that we should instead upload our beloved possessions onto their servers, it became a convenience everyone could use. Fast-forward to today, and we’re seeing people come to realise what privacy advocates have been telling us all along: entrusting our data to a corporation isn’t such a great idea, especially when you can make your own cloud storage at home.…
“What our LPO is doing is benefitting greatly from what’s going on in Silicon One and the software there,” Gartner said. “For customers that especially are deploying Silicon One on both ends of the link, there’s a 30% or 50% power reduction.” The key technology in Silicon One is its strong support for serializer/deserializer (SerDes) capabilities on its switching ASIC. The new G300 chip found in the 9000 and 8000 boxes features 512 lanes of 200 Gbps SerDes for a total switching capacity of 102.4 Tbps, supporting low-power interconnects with extended reach—500 meters or even 2 kilometers —is important for large-scale AI and GPU…
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) ordered federal agencies to patch three iOS security flaws targeted in cyberespionage and crypto-theft attacks using the Coruna exploit kit. As Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) researchers revealed earlier this week, Coruna uses multiple exploit chains targeting 23 iOS vulnerabilities, many of which were deployed in zero-day attacks. However, the exploits will not work on recent versions of iOS and will be blocked if the target is using private browsing or has enabled Apple’s Lockdown Mode anti-spyware protection feature. Coruna provides threat actors with Pointer Authentication Code (PAC) bypass, sandbox escape, and…
Google is reaching out directly to advertisers via email, requiring them to confirm whether their campaigns contain EU political ads — with a hard deadline of March 31st. Why we care.

What’s happening. Google is asking every advertiser to declare whether their existing campaigns include EU political ads. The requirement applies to all current campaigns and must be completed by March 31, 2026. How to comply: Google has outlined three ways…
Despite T-Mobile changing its plans and perks over the past couple of years, it remains one of the better choices for a wireless carrier in 2026. And while its Better Value plan might look great on the surface, there’s always the chance that, in the end, you might not be saving as much as you think by switching from an old plan. That’s because there’s always the chance that an older plan offered a perk that’s no longer available, like all tax and fees included, or a freebie that’s just way over the top. With that said, T-Mobile is now…
