If managing security across multiple cloud providers wasn’t hard enough, each one fails in a different way. For the 2026 Cloud Security Index, Intruder analyzed misconfiguration data from 3,000 organizations across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud and found that risk profiles across providers have almost nothing in common. Here’s what the data looks like. How…
Turning off email images should at least stop the pictures. This week, attackers had a workaround: a scannable QR code built out of text. It still appears, even with images blocked. A small detail, but an annoying one if that was a precaution you were counting on. Elsewhere, a trusted software source delivered code that…
SanDisk’s new 1TB microSD Express card went on sale in the US in late August 2026 carrying a $429 list price, a number that lands within $70 of a Nintendo Switch 2 console itself. The card, listed under SKU SDSQXF8-1T00-GNCNN, is currently discounted to $359 at retail, but even that “deal” price puts a single…
Buy a $999 handheld and you still have to think about the brick that keeps it alive. Steam Deck, ROG Xbox Ally X, Lenovo Legion Go, MSI Claw 8 AI+ and the Nintendo Switch 2 all charge over USB-C, but they don’t agree on wattage, and the charger you already own from your last laptop…
SonicWall’s SMA1000 secure access gateways are under attack again. On September 1, 2026, the vendor disclosed two new vulnerabilities in its SMA 1000 Series, CVE-2026-83548 and CVE-2026-83549, and confirmed both were already being exploited in the wild before the patch shipped. It’s the second time in roughly seven weeks that attackers have found and weaponized…
Microsoft is about to flip a switch on hundreds of millions of Windows 11 PCs, and PC gamers are the ones who will feel it first. Starting with the October 13, 2026 Patch Tuesday update, Windows 11 will automatically turn on Memory Integrity — also known as Hypervisor-Enforced Code Integrity, or HVCI — on every…
Digital Foundry has published its technical breakdown of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots running on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and the verdict is blunt: the Switch 2 version is, in the outlet’s own framing relayed by GoNintendo on September 5, 2026, the “biggest surprise” among the five platforms now carrying the…
Xbox Game Pass no longer has one obvious upgrade path. As of September 7, 2026, Microsoft’s subscription service runs on four separate tiers, each gating a different slice of what used to be a single value proposition: play new Xbox games the day they launch. Only two of those four tiers, Game Pass Ultimate and…
Open-plan offices killed the loud clicky keyboard years ago, but programmers still need tactile feedback to type fast without watching every keystroke on a screen. That tension has pushed three very different boards to the top of developer shopping lists in September 2026: the Logitech MX Mechanical Mini, the Keychron Q1 Max, and the Cherry…
A visitor using NVDA or VoiceOver hits your sign-up form, and the error message never gets announced. A keyboard-only user tabs into your modal and can’t tab back out. These are not edge cases anymore. WebAIM’s 2026 Million report found detectable WCAG failures on 95.9% of the top one million home pages, averaging 56.1 errors…
