One of the federal government’s most ambitious broadband targets may soon be abandoned. On August 7, the FCC will vote on a proposal to drop its goal of gig speeds for every American. In March last year, the Democratic-led group voted to raise the definition of minimum broadband speeds from 25Mbps download and 3Mbps upload speed to 100/20Mbps. It also set a more ambitious long-term goal of increasing the benchmark to 1,000Mbps download and 500Mbps upload speed. Trump’s pick for FCC chair, Bren

Proton has launched a new tool called Lumo, offering a privacy-first AI assistant that does not log user conversations and doesn't use their prompts for training. Proton is a Swiss company behind proven privacy and security tools and services, including Proton Mail, Proton VPN, and Proton Drive. In June 2024, it transitioned to a non-profit structure, putting user privacy over profits. The introduction of Lumo aligns with this mission, as Proton claims this AI tool is designed to provide help
Vision Language Models (VLMs) enable visual understanding alongside textual inputs. They are typically built by passing visual tokens from a pretrained vision encoder to a pretrained Large Language Model (LLM) through a projection layer. By leveraging the rich visual representations of the vision encoder and the world knowledge and reasoning capabilities of the LLM, VLMs can be useful for a wide range of applications, including accessibility assistants, UI navigation, robotics, and gaming.

Kerberoasting is a common attack targeting Microsoft Active Directory, enabling attackers to compromise service accounts with low risk of detection. Because it manipulates legitimate accounts, it can be highly effective. However, robust password security can keep the criminals at bay. First, what is Kerberoasting? The name comes from ‘Kerberos’, the authentication protocol used in Active Directory, which verifies a user’s identity or that of a computer requesting access to resources. Kerberoas
Lance Whitney / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET Passkeys offer a more secure and convenient method of authentication compared with passwords. But they can be challenging to set up and synchronize, especially if you want to use the same ones on a range of devices, such as a mobile phone, tablet, and computer. As one solution, Apple users can save and sync their passkeys across an iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The key here is iCloud Keychain, which can store passkeys as well as passwords. You first set up

While children under 13 years of age aren't allowed to sign up on the social media app, Meta allows adults like parents and managers to run accounts for children and post videos and photos of them. The company says that these accounts are "overwhelmingly used in benign ways," but they're also targeted by predators who leave sexual comments and ask for sexual images in DMs. In
Meta is introducing additional safeguards for Instagram accounts run by adults that primarily feature children, the company announced on Wednesday.

A popular account on TikTok and Instagram stopped posting suddenly at the end of last year, hit by a lawsuit after garnering millions of views on funny videos using adorable Calico Critter dolls made for preschoolers to act out dark, cringe-y adult storylines. While millions of followers mourn the so-called "Sylvanian Drama" account's demise, experts told Ars that the creator may have a decent chance at beating the lawsuit.

CISA and the FBI warned on Tuesday of increased Interlock ransomware activity targeting businesses and critical infrastructure organizations in double extortion attacks.

Google The BYOD trend has been a popular way for people to use their own devices at work. But the practice often blurs the line between personal and professional, triggering security risks and other issues. Now, Google has expanded a feature designed to ease and improve the process.

This capability has already been available for Chrome desktop and An
Zero Trust has been a buzzword at every enterprise tech conference for years (only recently being replaced with AI), but Tailscale’s new State of Zero Trust 2025 report makes it clear that most organizations still have no idea what it means or how to do it. They surveyed 1,000 IT, security, and engineering leaders. Only 1% of those surveyed said they’re happy with their current access setup. That stat says a lot about the confusion in the marketplace.

Apple's reputation for providing a private and secure experience for people who use its products and services is among the highest in the industry. All that has been under threat this year, as the UK government has asked Apple to provide it with backdoor access to the iCloud accounts not only of British citizens, but of people around the world. But it looks like following pressure from the US, the UK might have decided to reverse course. As reported by the Financial Times on Sunday, the Home Of
The Federal Communications Commission is ditching Biden-era standards for measuring progress toward the goal of universal broadband deployment. The changes will make it easier for the FCC to give the broadband industry a passing grade in an annual progress report. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's proposal would give the industry a thumbs-up even if it falls short of 100 percent deployment, eliminate a long-term goal of gigabit broadband speeds, and abandon a new effort to track the affordability of
