Everyone knows what it’s like to lose cell service. A burgeoning open source project called Meshtastic is filling the gap for when you’re in the middle of nowhere—or when disaster strikes.

This spring has seen another spate of stories about juice jacking, including a new, more sophisticated form of attack. But how much of a threat is it, really?

SilverRAT Source Code leaked on GitHub, exposing powerful malware tools for remote access, password theft, and crypto attacks before removal.

An arson attack in Colorado had detectives stumped. The way they solved the case could put everyone at risk.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a series of now-patched security vulnerabilities in Apple's AirPlay protocol that, if successfully exploited, could enable an attacker to take over susceptible devices supporting the proprietary wireless technology. The shortcomings have been collectively codenamed AirBorne by Israeli cybersecurity company Oligo. "These vulnerabilities can be chained by

Oligo Security uncovers “AirBorne,” a set of 23 vulnerabilities in Apple AirPlay affecting billions of devices. Learn how…

Plus: France blames Russia for a series of cyberattacks, the US is taking steps to crack down on a gray market allegedly used by scammers, and Microsoft pushes the password one step closer to death.

Researchers found a set of vulnerabilities that puts all devices leveraging Apple's AirPlay at risk.

Researchers reveal a collection of bugs known as AirBorne that would allow any hacker on the same Wi-Fi network as a third-party AirPlay-enabled device to surreptitiously run their own code on it.
