The new ASPEED AST1840 brings two leading technologies ...

Every major shift in datacenter architecture moves certain security capabilities from nice-to-have to non-negotiable. As systems become more disaggregated, platforms more modular, and firmware delivery increasingly network-based, traditional trust assumptions no longer hold. Hardware is sourced across vendors. Devices are updated and replaced continuously. Systems are expected to evolve over long operational lifetimes rather than remain static. In this environment, trust cannot be assumed at bo...

In early 2026, a quiet shift became impossible to ignore: artificial intelligence (AI) moved from helping defenders to operating like an attacker at scale. The cybersecurity community took notice when researchers revealed that an advanced AI system, known publicly as Claude Mythos Preview, was able to independently discover and exploit serious software vulnerabilities. Many of these weaknesses had existed for years in widely used operating systems and software, despite extensive testing and revi...

The humanoid robotics market is moving quickly from concept to commercial reality.
