Picture multiple programs running on one computer. Since they share the same memory hardware – they are at risk for a “memory timing side-channel attack.” Delays are inherent when programs try to access a computer's memory because of shared…

Lund University researchers developed a simple, single hydrocarbon molecule with a logic gate function, paving the way for electric components such as transistors on a subatomic scale. With transistors, smaller means faster and better…

According to SecurityScorecard’s new data report, "The CISO's Playbook: Stay Ahead of Friday Breach Effects" expect ransomware attacks to increase in the coming years, and they’ll likely occur during the weekend. Key report findings…

Synopsys announced the availability of Code Sight™ Standard Edition, a standalone version of the Code Sight plugin for integrated development environments (IDE). The plugin enables developers to rapidly find and fix security defects in…

MIT developed a programming language to describe and verify which pieces of data are entangled, preventing bugs in a quantum program. When qubits are entangled, action on one affects the other, also changing its value—even at a distance.…

Universities Space Research Association (USRA) announced the beginning of operations for phase-2 of DARPA's Optimization with Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum devices (ONISQ) program. Phase 1 launched in 2020, and USRA was selected to lead…

NortonLifeLock set out its top predictions for cyber trends in 2022, including new momentum in cyberactivism, scammers capitalizing on natural disasters, the demise of online tracking, the rise of cryptocurrency scams—and a lot more.…

Scientists at DOE/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory demonstrated the observation of atoms moving in a tiny quantum electronic switch as it operates. They also discovered a new material state that could mean faster, more energy-efficient…

Behind the scenes of social networking apps are machine learning models that classify nodes based on the data they contain about users including education, location, or political affiliation. The models use these classifications to…

When we really think about it, from the smallest chip to the largest data center—there’s a carbon price tag. For several decades, technology has been about building smaller, faster, more powerful devices – without consideration of the…
