It rains on the Sun, and scientists at the University of Hawaiʻi Institute for Astronomy (IfA) have finally uncovered the reason why. Unlike the water that falls from clouds on Earth, solar rain takes place in the Sun’s corona, the outermost layer made of intensely hot plasma. This phenomenon involves cooler, heavier blobs of plasma…
Security has always been about controlling who can do what and where. In 2025, that control is mediated entirely by identity. When an attacker “logs in,” not “breaks in”, they inherit legitimate permissions, blend into normal telemetry, and pivot across AD, Entra/Okta, SaaS, and cloud, driving multi-million-dollar losses. Credentials, tokens, and service accounts have become…
Nature follows countless rhythms: the changing of the seasons comes from Earth’s orbit around the Sun, and the steady tick of a clock arises from the back-and-forth swing of its pendulum. These patterns can be described with simple mathematical laws. Yet, order can also appear in a far more surprising way — on its own,…
A new randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial suggests that a single round of low-dose radiation therapy could offer a safe and effective alternative for people suffering from painful knee osteoarthritis. Participants with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis experienced notable pain reduction and improved mobility within four months of receiving the treatment. The radiation exposure was only…

A secure room inside the Bank of Italy’s gold vault is filled with stacked…
CISOs and security leaders today face extraordinary challenges: the constant influx of vast quantities of fragmented threat data, information that lacks the context necessary for their unique organizations, and mounting operational gaps that hinder genuine risk reduction. The need has shifted from “more visibility” to “more insight.” To sift through the noise and move faster…
“If you don’t include people with disabilities or people with facial differences in the development of these processes, no one’s going to think of these issues,” says Kathleen Bogart, a psychology professor at Oregon State University who specializes in disability research and lives with a facial difference. “AI has amplified these issues, but it’s rooted…
A new study examined how muscles respond to weight training when people eat different types of pork afterward. Researchers compared high-fat and lean ground pork burgers that contained the same amount of protein to see how each affected short-term muscle growth. The results surprised the team and added to growing evidence that the body’s muscle-building…
Published October 15, 2025 Celebrity campaigns are so commonplace these days that they can often pass without comment. But there are celebrities and mega-celebrities and Moncler has linked up with two who definitely fit the latter category. Plus they have the rarity virtue given that they’re not appearing in brand campaigns for multiple luxury…
Enterprise security leaders and their teams face an impossible challenge: drowning in thousands of critical exposures in an ever-expanding attack surface while simultaneously trying to determine which ones pose a genuine risk of exploitation in their organizational environment. Traditional CVSS scoring and even some advanced risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) techniques can often leave one fundamental…
