bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-01-03 06:01:11

APIs: Still Easy Targets in 2025 APIs are the backbone of modern applications - and one of the most exposed parts of an organization’s infrastructure. This makes them a prime target for attackers. One of the highest-profile examples was the Optus breach in 2022, where attackers stole millions of customer records through an unauthenticated API endpoint - costing the telecom company $140 million AUD in fallout.

If you're in the same boat, you may have also noticed you can't just jam in the SD card from your original Switch and keep rocking. Instead, you'll need a new microSD Express card. This Express standard was introduced in late 2023, and it enables write speeds in the hundreds of megabytes, but until now the cards themselves were as rare as any devices that used the standard.

Is Verizon Fios or Xfinity better? Verizon Fios and Xfinity are some of the top providers nationwide, and while both offer competitive internet services and price guarantee of up to five years, CNET picks Verizon Fios as the better provider overall --largely due to its 100% fiber network, straightforward pricing and promotional offers.
