Microsoft expands Intune Suite access for Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 subscribers

Microsoft has officially integrated advanced Intune Suite capabilities into Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 licenses to streamline endpoint management. This change allows organizations to consolidate identity, security, and compliance tools within a single platform rather than relying on disconnected third-party solutions. The update aims to help administrators transition toward a Zero Trust architecture by providing more robust controls over diverse device inventories.

📰 Linux 7.3 To Overcome "Significant Bottleneck" For Small I/O With PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs

While the Linux 7.2 feature merge window ended just days ago and the better part of two months now before v7.2 will be released as stable, there are already features beginning to accumulate that will target the Linux 7.3 cycle. The most exciting change I've seen to kick off that dance ahead of Linux 7.3 is addressing a "significant" bottleneck affecting small direct I/O performance with speedy storage such as PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs...

Anthropic brings Claude AI agents to Microsoft Teams and Azure Foundry

Anthropic is expanding its enterprise presence by integrating Claude AI agents directly into the Microsoft ecosystem. While a native "Claude Tag" feature currently allows Slack users to mention the assistant in shared channels, Microsoft Teams users can now access similar capabilities through a dedicated Microsoft 365 connector. This integration allows the AI to reason over organizational data stored in Teams conversations, SharePoint, and OneDrive without requiring manual file uploads.

Microsoft launches Frontier Company to embed AI engineers at enterprise sites

Microsoft is establishing a new business unit called Microsoft Frontier Company to accelerate the adoption of generative AI within enterprise environments. Backed by a $2.5 billion investment, the organization will deploy 6,000 industry experts and engineers directly into customer operations to co-design and manage custom AI systems. This initiative represents a formal shift toward "forward-deployed engineering," where technical staff work on-site to ensure AI tools deliver measurable business outcomes rather than remaining as experimental pilots.

📰 New ChocoPoC RAT Targets Vulnerability Researchers via Fake PoC Exploit Repos

Attackers are hiding a data-stealing trojan inside fake exploit code aimed at the people who hunt bugs for a living. The malware, called ChocoPoC, travels in Python proof-of-concept (PoC) repositories on GitHub that claim to exploit hot new CVEs.Run one, and it quietly lifts your saved passwords, browser cookies, and files, then hands the attacker a shell on your machine.

Cisco Live Protect uses eBPF to shield Nexus switches without reboots

Cisco has introduced Live Protect for its Nexus infrastructure to address the critical "patching gap" that occurs between vulnerability discovery and software updates. This new feature allows data center operators to deploy real-time shields that mitigate specific security risks without requiring system reboots or scheduled downtime. By providing immediate protection against zero-day exploits, the solution helps maintain operational uptime while security teams prepare permanent software fixes.

На kernel.org по ошибке удалили со всех зеркал архивы с кодом ядра

Из-за ошибки при настройке нового первичного зеркала сайта kernel.org и внесении изменений в инфраструктуру, обеспечивающую работу первичных и вторичных зеркал, на существующих зеркалах оказалась удалены все данные в иерархии kernel.org/pub/, в которой среди прочего хранились архивы с кодом всех выпусков ядра, патчи и файлы со списками изменений. Эталонные данные не пострадали, удалены оказались лишь копии на зеркалах, что привело к показу пустого каталога при обращении к kernel.org/pub/. В настоящее время ведётся работа по восстановлению содержимого зеркал.

Court documents reveal how Anthropic AI ethics sparked government clash

Newly released court documents detail a significant legal and ethical confrontation between Anthropic and the Pentagon regarding the military application of the Claude AI model. The dispute originated when Anthropic attempted to impose strict guardrails prohibiting its technology from being used for domestic surveillance or fully autonomous lethal weapons systems. Defense Department officials rejected these limitations, asserting that the military requires total flexibility to utilize artificial intelligence for all lawful national security operations.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS has fixed its missing video/audio thumbnails

If you installed Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and noticed video and music files weren’t showing image thumbnails in the file manager, a packaging oversight was to blame, not anything you did. It turns out that Ubuntu’s default ‘minimal’ install wasn’t pulling in the gst-audio-thumbnailer and gst-video-thumbnailerpackages which generate media thumbnails when you open a folder full of compatible files. A metapackage doesn’t contain software itself, just a list of the packages that need to be installed for, in this case, an Ubuntu desktop experience. Confusingly, both thumbnailers were present in the full install’s meta file, so if you picked the Extended […]

ReactOS получил первый syscall из Windows NT6

1 июля ReactOS, свободная ОС с бинарной совместимостью с приложениями и драйверами Windows, получила первый реализованный системный вызов из семейства Windows NT6.
Добавлены: NtGetCurrentProcessorNumberEx (возвращает номер логического процессора, на котором в данный момент выполняется вызывающий поток), тест для этой функции, реализация в NTOS:KE и NTDLL, а также связанные NT6+ функции уровня RTL/NTDLL, включая RtlGetCurrentProcessorNumberEx и RtlIsProcessorFeaturePresent.
Это изменение символически важно, поскольку ReactOS исторически ориентировался в первую очередь на совместимость с Windows Server 2003 / NT 5.2, но официальном описании данной ОС подчёркивается, что он также смотрит в сторону совместимости с Windows Vista и последующими релизами Windows NT. Как отмечает Phoronix, это очередной шаг в сторону совместимости с ними.
