A Bluetooth Low Energy vulnerability discovered by NCC Group researchers may be used by attackers to unlock Teslas, residential smart locks, building access systems, mobile phones, laptops, and many other devices. "Many products implement Bluetooth Low Energy-based proximity authentication, where the product unlocks or remains unlocked when a trusted BLE device is determined to be nearby," they explained, and added that the possibility of relay attacks against BLE proximity authentication has been known for years, but existing tools came with detectable levels of latency and were not capable of relaying connections employing link layer encryption.
In recent years, there had been more cyberattacks, ransomware events, and an ongoing discovery of potential vulnerabilities within an IT infrastructure. The workforce needed to adapt to working from remote locations, hence why we need to shift to a multicloud solution to have flexibility, agility, and effectiveness to meet mission and business outcomes.
To understand how Amazon and Skills developers handle audio data, the boffins created an auditing framework to evaluate how voice data gets collected, used, and shared. Technically, the auditing framework involved setting up a custom Raspberry Pi router to record the network endpoints contacted by Amazon Echo and emulating an Amazon Echo by setting up Alexa Voice Service SDK, in order to capture unencrypted network traffic.

Three high-impact security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in APC Smart-UPS devices that could be abused by remote adversaries as a physical weapon to access and control them in an unauthorized manner. TLStorm consists of a trio of critical flaws that can be triggered via unauthenticated network packets without requiring any user interaction, meaning it's a zero-click attack, with two of the issues involving a case of faulty TLS handshake between the UPS and the APC cloud -.
If you're managing a smart model from ubiquitous uninterrupted power supply device brand APC, you need to apply updates now - a set of three critical zero-day vulnerabilities are making Smart-UPS devices a possible entry point for network infiltration. The vulnerabilities, dubbed "TLStorm" were found in Schneider Electric's APC Smart-UPS products by security firm Armis, which made the info public on Tuesday.
The global IoT in smart cities market size to grow from $130.6 billion in 2021 to $132.2 billion by 2026, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 19.0 % during the forecast period, according to ResearchAndMarkets. The service segment in the IoT in smart cities market to have a higher CAGR. The services segment in the IoT in smart cities market is expected to grow, as major players are focused on offering services.
A group of academics from the University of California, Santa Barbara, has demonstrated what it calls a "Scalable technique" to vet smart contracts and mitigate state-inconsistency bugs, discovering 47 zero-day vulnerabilities on the Ethereum blockchain in the process. Smart contracts are programs stored on the blockchain that are automatically executed when predetermined conditions are met based on the encoded terms of the agreement.
A hacker stole $31 million from the blockchain company MonoX Finance , by exploiting a bug in software the service uses to draft smart contracts. Specifically, the hack used the same token as both the tokenIn and tokenOut, which are methods for exchanging the value of one token for another.
Why drag your carry-on luggage behind you when you can simply strap on a Bluetooth wristband and let the luggage follow you through the airport, steering its way around obstacles, thus saving you the hassle of dragging round all the extra weight that the suitcase needs, in the form of batteries and motors, to drag itself around for you? If you don't get around to installing the app and pairing it with your own suitcase.
