Some 300,000 endpoints may be publicly exposed to RCE, but these are likely to be largely desktops not servers.
An attacker would need to craft a malicious container and run it "either directly (for example in services allowing shared GPU resources) or indirectly through a supply chain or social engineering attack"
"The activity shows how Generative AI is accelerating attacks and lowering the bar for cybercriminals to infect endpoints."
"The kernel driver is a vital component of most security products. Securing operating systems without it would be difficult."
"Thousands of ATGs are currently online and directly accessible over the Internet, making them prime targets for cyberattacks, especially in sabotage or cyberwarfare scenarios."
"It's moving in the right direction... but we haven’t yet gotten the program that the community has been asking for."
"One of the most significant security improvements in Azure history"
"One of the most rapidly growing expense line items" -- with Zscaler and CyberArk among the vendors getting paid.
