What is free cooling? Free cooling is an approach to lowering the air temperature in a building or data center by using naturally cool air or water instead of mechanical refrigeration. In practice, free cooling is not entirely free because pumps, fans, and other air and water-handling equipment is needed. That equipment also requires periodic […]
What is converged infrastructure? Converged infrastructure, sometimes called converged architecture, is an approach to data center management that packages compute, networking, servers, storage and virtualization tools into a prequalified set of IT hardware. Converged systems include a toolkit of management software. Converged infrastructure (CI) experienced a long period of popularity as IT organizations sought to […]

Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology presented a novel approach to developing programmable logic controller (PLC) malware that proves to be more flexible, resilient, and impactful than current strategies. The scheme allows the malware to stealthily attack the underlying real-world machinery using the legitimate web application program interfaces (APIs) exposed by the admin portal […]

The notorious Azorult malware has resurfaced on the dark web again, demonstrating a renewed and sophisticated approach. First identified in 2016, Azorult operates as a powerful information-stealing threat, specializing in the extraction of sensitive data such as browsing history, login credentials, and cryptocurrency details. Cyble Research & Intelligence Labs (CRIL) recently found several PDF files […]
Claiming Accounts The problem with this approach for email generation is that this also applies to email domains of large email providers. For example, if the owner is using an outlook.com email address, the Room’s email address will be room__<account ID>@outlook.com. Since anyone can create an arbitrary Outlook email address, we can create a valid […]
AlphaLock’s business model represents a new and sophisticated approach to cybercrime, creating a pipeline of trained hackers and monetizing their services through an affiliate program.
What is ducting (data center cooling)? Ducting is an approach to air management that uses a series of metal or plastic pipes to carry heated or cooled air from one place to another. A duct system is often referred to as ductwork. There are two categories of ducts: active and passive. Ducts are naturally passive […]
