Kagi has released Orion 1.0, a web browser that features privacy by default, zero telemetry, and no integrated ad-tracking technology. Orion supports both Chrome and Firefox extensions and intentionally excludes AI from its core to prioritize security, privacy, and performance. After six years of development, Orion ships for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS with upcoming Linux and Windows versions. Orion is based on WebKit and follows a freemium model.
Cryptocurrency has gone from a niche idea to a global tool for business. But behind the scenes, it still takes real work to make digital payments safe, fast, and reliable. Few companies have taken on that challenge with as much focus and discipline as ZixiPay. Founded in 2017 by a small team of engineers and early blockchain investors, ZixiPay has grown into a trusted name in crypto payment processing and business wallet technology.
Typically, what happens is that we plan for maybe 2x, 3x load, but when you put things into the internet, you don't have any control. Who is coming in, when they're going to come, how is this going to be used, because that's how the internet is. Any event can potentially trigger it. It could be good for your business. It could be bad actors coming and trying to steal stuff.
"we are not tracking any specific credible threats related to Hanukkah" in NYC, "out of an abundance of caution" the city's police had "significantly increased security" around the Jewish festival of lights. "You will see an enhanced uniform presence, specialized patrols, heavy weapons teams, community affairs officers, counterterrorism resources to ensure the safety of New Yorkers"
At Fortune's recent Brainstorm AI event in San Francisco, an expert roundtable grappled with that question as insiders shared how their companies are approaching security and governance-an issue that is leapfrogging even more practical challenges such as data and compute power. Companies are in an arm's race to parachute AI agents into their workflows that can tackle tasks autonomously and with little human supervision.
There was no threat posed by drones to President Volodomyr Zelensky on his Irish visit last week because they appeared after he had landed, the Taoiseach has told the Dáil. "His aircraft had landed quite some time before," Micheál Martin said, adding that he had been briefed on the incident and had received a report. But it was not appropriate to enter details in the public domain, he said.
Syrians have marked the first anniversary of the fall of longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad with fireworks and jubilant celebrations in major cities, amid renewed optimism for long-lasting freedom and safety after 14 years of war. Syria's President Ahmed al-Sharaa told large crowds in Damascus on Monday that the country had turned the page from a dark chapter in its history and now looks towards a promising future.

After experiencing intense itching from head to toe, I developed a total aversion to dogs. I made my husband agree that we would never have a dog when we got married. My husband and I both worked internationally, he in defense and me in humanitarian efforts. We met in Afghanistan and later moved to Kenya, which was a region where his harder skillset and my softer skillset could both be utilized.
Senada Adžem, the executive director of luxury sales at Douglas Elliman, said before she started selling homes in the development, prices averaged around $6 million. Adžem broke the mold when she put a house up for sale in the neighborhood for $20 million in 2018. It took her two years to sell it for the first time, but it then sold several times after that. Just last month the same property, now remodeled, sold to Wahlberg for $37 million.
Online trading has become a normal part of how people invest and manage money today. With so many platforms available, it can be hard to tell which ones truly protect personal data and funds. Knowing how to identify a secure trading platform helps safeguard both money and peace of mind. A trusted platform follows clear rules, uses strong security tools, and treats users with honesty.
The Reg FOSS desk encountered sudo in the first public beta of Mac OS X, way back in 2000, but the classic C version is a venerable tool. It's so old that precise initial dates are lost to time, but the project's own history says it dates back to 1980. (The project's logo is much younger than the code - it's a reference to a 2006 XKCD comic.) Ubuntu has included the sudo command - and discouraged use of the all-powerful root account - since its very first release, 4.10 "Warty Warthog."
When thieves stole more than $80 million in jewels from the Louvre in Paris, they didn't exploit a total absence of security but rather gaps in the museum's broader security program, encompassing both aging systems and situational awareness, according to early reports. The museum's director later confirmed that the balcony used in the break-in wasn't covered by a functioning external camera; the only camera nearby faced the wrong direction.
Our grotesque slob of a president attended the football game Sunday between the Detroit Lions and the Washington Commanders, held at the far-flung hell-hole of a suburban stadium that Commanders owner Josh Harris is in the process of abandoning. The occasion was the team's annual "Salute to Service" game, a time when the Commanders do more than the usual amount of pandering and flag-humping.
"The European Union is tightening its visa rules for Russian nationals amid concern over what the bloc considers "sabotage and potential misuse of visas." Multiple-entry visas will no longer be issued, with applicants being required to apply for a new visa each time they sought to travel to the EU. In a statement released by the European Commission, they expressed the aim of the new rules were to protect public policy as well as security."
It's amazing to see how quickly web developers have adopted artificial intelligence (AI) apps. Many have added this technology to their workflow and haven't looked back. There are pros and cons to this seismic industry shift. On the bright side, AI speeds up the development process. We don't have to spend hours poring over WordPress documentation. Instead, we explain our coding needs in plain language. AI helps us build new things from scratch and troubleshoot existing code.
When Maccabi Tel Aviv were drawn to face Aston Villa in the Europa League, the fixture immediately stood out. The prospect of an Israeli team travelling to play a club based in a predominantly Muslim area prompted concerns from those in charge of ensuring the fixture passes off safely. Six weeks ago, there was even a chance the game might not go ahead, with calls for Israeli teams to be removed from international competitions because of the Israel-Gaza war.
At 9.30am, when visitors were already streaming into the museum's galleries, two masked thieves used a goods lift on a truck parked on the riverbank side of the building to reach a balcony on the first floor. Using two grinders, which they also reportedly threatened museum employees with, the thieves cut through a glazed window leading to the Apollo Gallery of decorative art, smashed two cabinets displaying 19th century royal and imperial jewellery and grabbed ten items, before escaping back down the ladder and fleeing with two accomplices on TMax scooters.
Sidero Labs has been developing Talos Linux, an immutable operating system purpose-built exclusively for running Kubernetes, alongside Omni, a cluster lifecycle management platform. InfoQ met the Sidero team in Amsterdam during the TalosCon 2025 and had conversations about their approach to simplifying Kubernetes operations through minimalism and security-first design. The concept for Talos emerged from practical frustrations with traditional operating systems in enterprise environments.
What is software? "Software" is actually quite a broad term, spanning everything from low-level firmware running on devices; operating systems; command-line tools that only developers use; compiled code that runs on its own; interpreted code that needs some other piece of software - or even an entire other application like a web browser! - to run it. Software takes many, many forms, and is created and executed in many different ways for many different purposes.
