How proactive SOCs use threat intelligence, industry context, and hybrid attack visibility to reduce noise and anticipate real threats.

Light undergoes a unique phenomenon called superscattering, an optical illusion where a very small object scatters far more light than expected. This happens when multiple scattering modes overlap and interact, allowing tiny objects to scatter far more light than their size should allow.

Scientists have now found a way to expand the scope of superscattering beyond optics into the thermal world.

A team of researchers from Taiyuan University of Technology, China, has experimentally demonstrated thermal superscattering by surrounding an object with an active shell comprising arrays of controllable heating and cooling elements along its boundary. This shell allowed the tiny object to fake the thermal signatures of an object nine times larger than itself.

China’s “Green Electrostate” Is Neither

It’s not only fans who are looking forward to the game’s release.

A new campaign dubbed ‘GhostPoster’ is hiding JavaScript code in the image logo of malicious Firefox extensions with more than 50,000 downloads, to monitor browser activity and plant a backdoor.

The malicious code grants operators persistent high-privilege access to the browser, enabling them to hijack affiliate links, inject tracking code, and commit click and ad fraud.

The hidden script is acting as a loader that fetches the main payload from a remote server. To make the process more difficult to detect, the payload is intentionally retrieved only once in ten attempts.
