NVIDIA committed $1 billion over five years and announced seven national-lab systems, led by Argonne's Solstice with around 100,000 Blackwell GPUs. Solstice targets AI work at 4 to 16 bits, so labs that need double precision are left weighing emulation against native FP64 hardware.

Microsoft charges business customers $122 per device for year-two Windows 10 security updates, double the $61 it charged in year one. Statcounter puts Windows 10 at 27.8% of Windows PCs, without splitting business from consumer machines.

Zenity Labs researchers found that a single prompt could steal temporary credentials from Amazon Bedrock AgentCore through its IMDSv1 metadata service. SC World, citing The Register, says an excess-permissions problem outlasted AWS's metadata fix.

UK education software supplier Bromcom says unauthorized access to a legacy SSO registration feature exposed users' email addresses and reference numbers. Its school records system was not reached, so the question for schools is which older login features suppliers still run.

Ukraine says it recovered an Nvidia Jetson Orin NX 16GB from an S-71M cruise missile. The load-bearing fact is not edge inference; it is that a 2023 module reached a market Nvidia left in 2022.

Rejetto HFS 3.0.0 through 3.2.0 signs session cookies with a Math.random() key, and five leaked PRNG outputs let an attacker forge an admin session. Exploitation began on October 1, and version 3.2.1 restores secure key generation.

RemoteThreat left stealth Tuesday with $7 million and a platform that packages implants, C2 and evasion for enterprise and government red teams. Access is gated to vetted buyers over misuse concerns, with early customers including a major bank and a leading AI lab.

The group told The Register it took more than 2TB of HR records and wants a retraction from the FBI, not a ransom. Everyone else running self-hosted PeopleSoft HCM has an extortion group's word and no Oracle advisory.

Coca-Cola's disclosures put production-related systems in scope and suspended U.S. output at Fairlife without identifying which system stopped the line. A resilience drill aimed at the machinery would have missed all of them.

The technique injects a 0-9 MHz signal into non-linear analog parts so audio too faint to read passively becomes capturable by nearby gear. It has been demonstrated on Sony, HP and Philips hardware.

Air Security's Plugin4Shell lets a plugin be swapped during a background refresh while the agent reports the audited commit. Anthropic and OpenAI have patched, Copilot has no fix, and Google is retiring Gemini CLI.

Delos Data's Nonstop AI Reference Architecture is meant to hold a mixed domain of GPUs, CPUs, memory and storage together through hardware and link failures. The 10x figures attached to it describe silicon the company still calls planned.

Politico reported that ENISA and CERT-EU ran an advanced OpenAI model over an EU project's code and got four fixed flaws out of it. Poland's CERT, doing the same kind of work, said it tested every hypothesis on real systems.

The $875 million round prices an inference chip whose performance figures come from cycle-accurate simulations and whose production date has moved from early 2027 into the second half. The system Positron ships today runs on HBM.

The delivery annex gives every programme a budget, an owning body and a financial year between 2026/27 and 2029/30, and its biggest line is £2.3bn for the military satellite communications work the projects authority rated red in July.

NESO's transparency notice lists what leaving Foundry would cost: redevelopment, data migration, security accreditation, retraining. It is the exit bill most buyers only estimate, written down by the organisation that owes it.

TrendForce still has DRAM contract prices climbing 13% to 18% this quarter while supplier inventories sit at historic lows, which makes the slowdown a limit on what PC and phone buyers can pay rather than relief for anyone's hardware budget.

The project says it will continue on legal advice it has not described. The code repository and the best-known public instance are verifiably back, and nothing has changed about the unofficial API that forces a rebuild every few months.
