    Microsoft Exposes China NeedyMantis Spy Tool: Year Inside Telecoms Left Theft Scope Unknown (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A China-linked threat actor has spent nearly a year running a modular espionage implant called NeedyMantis inside the networks of telecommunications providers, universities, medical nonprofits, intergovernmental organizations, and government contractors — and security teams at those organizations can now check for it using a full package of detection tools that Microsoft published Monday. The disclosure, posted Sunday on Microsoft's Security Blog, includes indicators of compromise, advanced hunt

    IBM, Duke, and QuEra Quantum Computers Each Independently Simulated Proton Formation (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Three independent quantum computing platforms converged last week on the same fundamental physics result: the real-time simulation of gluon string-breaking, the process that creates every proton and neutron in the universe. On September 23, the Duke Quantum Center published a Nature Physics paper on trapped-ion string-breaking showing a trapped-ion quantum simulator observing string-breaking dynamics; that result joins an earlier superconducting experiment from Lawrence Berkeley National Laborat

    TSMC Sets 2027 Chip Price Floor at 3-6%: AI Orders Could Pay Triple That (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company has confirmed wafer-out price adjustments of 3 to 6 percent for January 2027, according to supply chain sources cited by Digitimes on Wednesday — a figure that arrived below the 8 to 10 percent headline increase that Morgan Stanley analyst Charlie Chan had projected for 2027. But here is what that gap does not mean: it does not mean the pricing impact on AI chip orders is smaller than expected. The two figures measure different moments in TSMC's pricing

    Google Passkey Master Key Leaks to Chrome Memory and Cannot Be Revoked (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Passkeys were supposed to make credential theft a thing of the past. But new research from Palo Alto Networks' threat intelligence division reveals that Google's synced passkey system contains a structural flaw with no current fix: the 32-byte master key that encrypts every passkey in a victim's Google account passes through Chrome's process memory in plaintext, can be extracted by ordinary endpoint malware, and — once stolen — cannot be rotated or revoked. Unit 42 published its full findings on

    CXMT DRAM Is Now Inside Laptops: China Learns of Chip Flaws Before PC Makers Can Patch Them (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Three of the world's largest laptop makers have started putting memory chips from China's state-backed ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) inside notebook computers sold outside the United States — and the Chinese law that requires CXMT to report any newly discovered chip vulnerability to Beijing within 48 hours means that, in the event of a flaw, the Chinese government will be informed before HP, Asus, Acer, or the people who own those laptops are. That information asymmetry is not a hypothetic
