Microsoft has confirmed active exploitation of CVE-2026-42897, putting exposed on-prem Exchange and Outlook Web Access environments back under pressure.
NGINX Rift shows how a small rewrite-rule pattern can become a large operational risk. The flaw is not a universal one-request takeover, but exposed NGINX estates should still treat patching and configuration review as urgent.
NVIDIA and Emerald AI are redefining the AI race through electricity, distributed compute and flexible AI factories. The next trillion-dollar infrastructure layer may not be chips alone, but the orchestration of power, grids, micro data centres and the emerging inference economy.
Iran’s confrontation with the US and Israel is playing out as a rolling cyber campaign, with Iran aligned and proxy groups running noisy DDoS, defacement and hack and leak attacks on banks, telecoms and government targets, while active Chrome zero days give attackers fresh options.
Google has issued an emergency patch for a high-severity zero-day (CVE-2026-3910) in its V8 JavaScript engine, which is being actively exploited in the wild. The flaw allows arbitrary code execution, posing a significant risk to billions of Chrome users globally, including in Australia.
Google's March 2026 Android update patches a critical zero-day (CVE-2026-21385) in Qualcomm chips used in hundreds of millions of devices. The flaw, under active exploitation, allows privilege escalation and system compromise, posing a significant risk to users.
Tehran-linked hackers are turning a distant war into a live resilience test for Australia, probing Five Eyes networks as local banks quietly move to high alert while hybrid warfare becomes a “when, not if” cyber disruption scenario.
The AI race in 2026 has shifted from "who has the smartest model" to "who can afford the power and capital to run them at scale." When Google issues century bonds and Musk eyes orbital data centres, the $700 billion question is whether anyone can sustain this pace.
AI image models are no longer competing on visual flair alone. As OpenAI’s GPT Image 1.5 responds to Google’s Nano Banana Pro, the contest shifts to control, safety and who shapes the visual record online, raising new stakes for creators, platforms and public trust.
By 2027 the race to become the first cosmic CEO is moving from science fiction to strategy. Starcloud has already trained an AI model in orbit on an Nvidia H100, while Google prepares Project Suncatcher. What remains missing is not ambition, but clear pricing and proof orbital compute can pay.
