Recently, Microsoft and global technology services firm HCL Technologies teamed up to help solve the security challenge with a high-performance solution for medical devices. The result is a new reference architecture and platform for building secure medical devices and services based on HCL's CARE, Microsoft Defender for IoT and Azure IoT.
Windows 10 and Windows 11 have continued to raise the security bar for drivers running in the kernel. Kernel-mode driver publishers must pass the hardware lab kit (HLK) compatibility tests, malware scanning, and prove their identity through extended validation (EV) certificates.
As the world has changed over the past 18-months, companies have been wrestling with ways to keep employees and data protected as they support new ways of hybrid working. We built Windows 11 to be the most secure Windows yet with built-in chip to cloud protection that ensures company assets stay secure no matter where work happens.
Zero-day security vulnerabilities are like gold to attackers. With zero-days, or even zero-hours, developers have no time to patch the code, giving hackers enough access and time to explore and map internal networks, exfiltrate valuable data, and find other attack vectors.
We're sharing technical information about the vulnerability tracked as CVE-2021-35211, which was used to attack the SolarWinds Serv-U FTP software in limited and targeted attacks.
Zero Trust networks eliminate the concept of trust based on network location within a perimeter.
