- GhostRace CPU vulnerability threatens all major architectures — IBM and VU … – Tom’s Hardwareon 2024-03-17 at 15:03
Before making GhostRace public, the researchers informed major hardware vendors and the Linux kernel of the issue (in late 2023), since GhostRace applies to all major OSes and CPUs, even Arm. The notice given should hopefully have given vendors the time they needed to develop their fixes and workarounds, however, the researchers also included some tips for mitigating the issue in the public document. The issue is, that speculative execution can also result in “race conditions”, where separate threads attempting to access shared resources create major security vulnerabilities by doing so in a poorly-synchronized matter.

- AWS AppFabric now supports Box and IBM Security® Verify – Amazonon 2024-03-07 at 21:39
Today, AWS AppFabric announces support for two new software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications: Box and IBM Security® Verify. Starting now, IT administrators and security analysts can use AppFabric to quickly integrate with 25 SaaS applications, aggregate enriched and normalized SaaS audit logs, and audit end-user access across their SaaS apps. This launch expands AWS AppFabric supported applications used across an organization. AWS AppFabric quickly connects SaaS applications with security tools like Barracuda XDR, Logz.io, Netskope, NetWitness, Rapid7, and Splunk, or data lakes like Amazon Security Lake. With AppFabric, IT and security teams can more easily manage and secure SaaS applications by aggregating and normalizing log data into a central repository, and employees can soon complete everyday tasks faster using generative artificial intelligence (AI). With today’s announcement, IT and security analysts can improve their SaaS security posture across 25 SaaS applications without managing application specific API integrations. AWS AppFabric is generally available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Europe (Ireland).
- IBM Unveils X-Force Cyber Range; Alice Fakir Quoted – ExecutiveBizon 2024-03-07 at 17:25
IBM has launched a Washington, D.C.-based cyber range that will offer custom training exercises to help U.S. federal agencies and critical infrastructure organizations respond to cyberattacks and threats posed by artificial intelligence. The company said Wednesday facilitators at the IBM X-Force Cyber Range will guide participants from agencies and companies through a series of breach scenarios and help them navigate resource issues, communication breakdowns and incident reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, among others. The Cyber Wargame, crisis response and an exercise meant to help participants know the types of tools that hackers use in today’s cyberattacks are some of the immersive simulations the facility will offer. “From national security threats to supply chain disruptions impacting the goods and services we rely on every day, cyberattacks on government and critical infrastructure can have ramifications that go far beyond the balance sheet,” said Alice Fakir, partner and cybersecurity services lead for the U.S. federal market at IBM Consulting. Fakir added that the cyber response training the company’s new cyber range will offer could help federal agencies and other organizations better defend against emerging and existing threats and enable them to address federal mandates like those outlined in the Biden administration’s cybersecurity executive order. The IBM cyber range will offer two free cyber response training exercises for select critical infrastructure providers. The first session will occur in the spring of 2024 and the second event will take place later in the year. Join the Potomac Officers Club’s 2024 Cyber Summit on June 6 and hear cyber experts, government and industry leaders discuss the latest trends and the dynamic role of cyber in the public sector.
