Cloud Console Cartographer is an open-source tool that maps noisy log activity into highly consolidated, succinct events to help security practitioners cut through the noise and understand console behavior in their environment. "Infrastructure as code has replaced a lot of the need for console access for many organizations, but there are still plenty of instances where the console is still being used, and in some cases, you need to use the AWS console to perform certain actions. Cloud Console Cartographer cuts through the noise generated in logs by those console sessions," Daniel Bohannon, Permiso's Principal Threat Researcher, told Help Net Security.
The researchers used an approach dubbed 'blind quantum computing' to connect two quantum computing entities; this simulates the situation where an employee at home or in an office remotely connects to a quantum server via the cloud. Professor David Lucas, the co-head of the Oxford University Physics research team, said in a press release: "We have shown for the first time that quantum computing in the cloud can be accessed in a scalable, practical way which will also give people complete security and privacy of data, plus the ability to verify its authenticity."

Google Cloud announced a new enterprise subscription for Chrome and a bevy of generative AI add-ons for Google Workspace during the Cloud Next '24 conference, held in Las Vegas from April 9 - 11. Overall, Google Cloud is putting its Gemini generative AI in place as much as it can; for instance, the company is betting on providing Vertex AI infrastructure for other companies' AI and hardware like the new Axion CPU. We attended a pre-briefing for an early look at the new features and tools, including a generative AI video service for marketing and internal communications use.
