NWS myiasis is…
Key findings: Check Point Research has been monitoring a sophisticated social-engineering campaign targeting supply chain–critical manufacturing companies, where attackers leverage legitimate-looking business interactions to stealthily deliver a custom malware implant. The attacker initiates the communication via targeted company’s public “Contact Us” form, making the overture appear legitimate. The typical phishing flow is reversed as the…
In July 2025, the Trump administration announced a new effort (“Making Health Tech Great Again”) towards health data interchange (referred to in this brief as “interoperability”).

The highest-resolution images of a solar flare captured at the H-alpha wavelength (656.28 nm) may reshape how we understand the Sun’s magnetic architecture — and improve space weather forecasting. Using the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, built and operated by the NSF National Solar Observatory (NSO), astronomers captured dark coronal…

It’s a well-worn trope in science fiction. We see it in Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. It’s the premise of the Terminator series, in which Skynet triggers a nuclear holocaust to stop scientists from shutting it down. Those sci-fi roots go deep.

But the story isn’t that simple: While younger workers are being replaced by AI in some industries, more experienced workers are seeing new opportunities emerge. Erik Brynjolfsson, a professor at Stanford University, Ruyu Chen, a research…

A new study led by researchers at National Jewish Health has found that recent infection with the common cold — often caused by rhinoviruses — may offer temporary protection against infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The research provides fresh insight into why children are less likely than adults to develop symptoms and…
