technologyreview.com Sally Kornbluth 2026-02-27 02:00:00

Then, a little over a decade ago, MIT’s “Production in the Innovation Economy” initiative highlighted the opportunities we miss if design and manufacturing teams are miles or even oceans apart—and played a significant role in shaping the nation’s Advanced Manufacturing Initiative. Building on this legacy, and in response to an urgent national interest in restoring America’s manufacturing strength, an inspired group of MIT faculty came together in 2022 to found the Manufacturing@MIT Working Grou

How Today’s Pentest Models Compare and Why Continuous Wins

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-02-28 05:01:11

Security testing needs to shift testing models to mirror how real-world attackers operate.
