Their new alert relates to two entwined flaws, the first CVE-2025-54988 from August, rated 8.4 in severity, and the second, CVE-2025-66516 made public last week, rated 10.
CVE-2025-54988 is a weakness in the tika-parser-pdf-module used to process PDFs in Apache Tika from version 1.13 to and including version 3.2.1. It is one module in Tika’s wider ecosystem that is used to normalize data from 1,000 proprietary formats so that software tools can index and read them.
Unfortunately, that same document processing capability makes the software a prime target for campaigns using XML External Entity (XXE) injection attacks, a recurring issue in this class of utility.
In the case of CVE-2025-54988, this could have allowed an attacker to execute an External Entity (XXE) injection attack by hiding XML Forms Architecture (XFA) instructions inside a malicious PDF.
Through this, “an attacker may be able to read sensitive data or trigger malicious requests to internal resources or third-party servers,” said the CVE. Attackers could exploit the flaw to retrieve data from the tool’s document processing pipeline, exfiltrating it via Tika’s processing of the malicious PDF.
CVE superset
The maintainers have now realized that the XXE injection flaw is not limited to this module. It affects additional Tika components, namely Apache Tika tika-core, versions 1.13 to 3.2.1, and tika-parsers versions 1.13 to 1.28.5. In addition, legacy Tika parsers versions 1.13 to 1.28.5 are also affected.
Unusually – and confusingly – this means there are now two CVEs for the same issue, with the second, CVE-2025-66516, a superset of the first. Presumably, the reasoning behind issuing a second CVE is that it draws attention to the fact that people who patched CVE-2025-54988 are still at risk because of the additional vulnerable components listed in CVE-2025-66516.
So far, there’s no evidence that the XXE injection weakness in these CVEs is being exploited by attackers in the wild. However, the risk is that this will quickly change should the vulnerability be reverse engineered or proofs-of-concept appear.
CVE-2025-66516 is rated an unusual maximum 10.0 in severity, which makes patching it a priority for anyone using this software in their environment. Users should update to Tika-core version 3.2.2, tika-parser-pdf-module version 3.2.2 (standalone PDF module), or tika-parsers versions 2.0.0 if on legacy.
However, patching will only help developers looking after applications known to be using Apache Tika. The danger is that its use might not be listed in all application configuration files, creating a blind spot whereby its use is not picked up. The only mitigation against this uncertainty would be for developers to turn off the XML parsing capability in their applications via the tika-config.xml configuration file.

Apple already has a Move to iOS app for transferring data from an Android device to an iPhone, while Google has an Android Switch app that can migrate data from an iPhone to an Android smartphone. The new method will apparently replace the existing apps, offering a transfer function when setting up a new iPhone or Android device.
The collaboration will apparently add "more functionality" and support for transferring data types that are not available to transfer with the current tools.
Both Apple and Google are facing regulatory pressure around the world, with multiple countries scrutinizing practices that might keep customers locked into a platform. Making it simpler for users to transition from one platform to another will be beneficial to both companies.Tags: Android, Google

Children under the age of 16 will no longer be allowed to use Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, YouTube (except for YouTube Kids), Snapchat, X, Twitch, Threads, and Kick in Australia, and those apps have to take "reasonable steps" to remove underage users from their platforms starting Wednesday. Apps will also need to prevent new signups from users under the age of 16, and there is a one-year transition period before penalties will begin.
To assist developers, Apple provides the Declared Age Range API, which gives developers access to the age range of users. Other tools available include an option for an age suitability URL that provides more information on the app and its age-related content, app description pages that indicate age restrictions, and tools for setting higher minimum age ranges.
Platforms that don't deactivate accounts created by children will face serious fines. Australia may also add more apps to its banned list over time, depending on the apps that kids adopt after not being able to access their current favorites.
Australia is the first country to implement a total social media ban for children.
More information is available on Apple's developer website.Tags: App Store, Australia

This is not fiction. It happens every year in boardrooms that treat procurement as a hunting ground for savings instead of a safeguard for resilience. When cost reduction becomes the primary focus, resilience pays the price, especially in the case of cyber resilience.
You see it everywhere. Organizations optimize procurement to look good on quarterly slides. They negotiate the lowest price, consolidate suppliers and chase global sourcing arbitrage. It works until the unexpected hits. A ransomware attack cripples a vendor. A third-party breach compromises customer data. A geopolitical shock disrupts digital supply chains. Suddenly, losses from a fragile, unprepared ecosystem dwarf the money saved.
If you’re on a board leading finance, risk, procurement or security, the message is blunt: procurement strategies built on short-term savings erode resilience. And in an era where cyberattacks exploit every weakness, that fragility is a bet against your survival.
Here’s the arc of the problem and what you can do about it.
Why procurement prioritizes cost above all
Procurement follows the incentives you give it. And most incentives point in one direction: cut costs.
Boards demand quick wins. Shareholders watch quarterly margins. Procurement KPIs focus on negotiated savings, supplier discounts and contract efficiency. It’s a one-dimensional scoreboard. Nobody hands out trophies for resilience.
Cyber resilience rarely appears on procurement dashboards. A vendor offering cheaper cloud storage will beat a competitor with stronger cyber safeguards, simply because the first is cheaper on paper. The boardroom reinforces this blind spot. Quarterly reporting cycles reward immediate savings, not the unseen cost of risk reduction. Shareholders don’t ask if your supplier encrypts backups or patches vulnerabilities. They ask how much you shaved off the IT contract.
Global sourcing makes it worse. Firms outsource development or data processing to low-cost regions with weaker privacy laws and fragile security oversight. On spreadsheets, it looks brilliant. In practice, it’s like building your house on sand.
Procurement also operates with blind spots. A buyer can compare unit costs of servers, but rarely the supplier’s incident response maturity. Without cyber expertise at the table, decisions default to the cheapest bidder. Cost wins. Security loses.
This is how organizations become penny-wise. And as attacks multiply, it’s also how they become pound-foolish.
The hidden trade-offs with resilience
Savings don’t erase risk. They shift it. What looks efficient today becomes exposed tomorrow. Cyber resilience is often the first casualty.
Supply chain fragility: Cyber threats thrive on concentration. When procurement consolidates digital services into a single provider to save money, a single breach can have a ripple effect across your operations. Consider the numerous businesses tied to a single compromised cloud vendor, which can be cheap until an outage or ransomware campaign brings them all down. Cybersecurity weakness: Vendors are often chosen for cost, not defense-in-depth. The “affordable” software supplier may lack basic monitoring or encryption. When attackers compromise them, your systems become collateral damage. Procurement saved a dollar but opened a door for hackers. Operational rigidity: Cheap IT providers rarely build resilience into contracts. They don’t maintain redundant data centers. They don’t run breach simulations. They don’t guarantee recovery in hours, only in days. When ransomware strikes, you’re paying in downtime what you once saved in cost. Cultural risks: A transactional relationship kills transparency. Vendors under constant price pressure often fail to promptly disclose near-misses. They fear contract termination. That delay costs you valuable hours in containment. Collaboration in crisis requires trust, not just a signed contract. Procurement thinks it saved money. What it really bought was fragility disguised as efficiency.
Real-world costs of cheap procurement
The myth of cheap procurement collapses under stress. Recent history offers brutal lessons.
SolarWinds breach. Thousands of organizations relied on a cost-efficient IT supplier. Attackers slipped malicious code into its updates. Hackers compromised governments and corporations worldwide. The procurement team might have saved millions. The damage bill reached billions.
Kaseya ransomware attack. Many mid-sized businesses relied on Kaseya’s remote management tool because it was an affordable option. Attackers hijacked it, spreading ransomware across hundreds of clients. The procurement logic of a single, inexpensive tool became the weapon that attackers scaled.
Colonial Pipeline hack. A single compromised VPN account, lacking multifactor authentication, triggered the shutdown of critical infrastructure. Procurement had outsourced key systems with minimal cyber scrutiny. The real cost wasn’t the ransom. It was the systemic disruption and reputational fallout.
COVID-19 and digital fragility. Hospitals and governments scrambled to scale remote work with IT services. Many picked low-cost providers. Within months, attackers exploited weak VPNs, unpatched systems and unsecured collaboration tools. The savings turned into a wave of cyber incidents.
Automotive chip shortages meet cyber. As chip suppliers consolidated, ransomware attacks on a single manufacturer cascaded across global production. Procurement’s lean sourcing magnified the blast radius.
These are not outliers. They are the predictable outcome of ignoring cyber resilience in procurement.
Each case reveals the same truth: the resilience premium far exceeds the savings illusion. Revenue loss, regulatory fines, reputational damage, customer churn; the real bill is always larger.
How to balance cost and resilience
This is not a call to abandon savings. It’s a call to recognize that cost efficiency without cyber resilience is a false economy.
Your challenge is to redesign procurement so that cost efficiency and cyber resilience reinforce each other, rather than cancelling each other out.
Risk-based procurement
Treat procurement like risk management, not bargain hunting. Every supplier is a potential doorway into your systems. Locks, alarms and cameras are used to reinforce some doors. Others are left ajar. If you let procurement chase the lowest price without scoring those risks, you’ve just invited attackers to stroll in.
Practical steps:
Require cybersecurity due diligence in every RFP. Ask about patching frequency, incident response protocols, SOC 2/ISO 27001 certifications and zero-trust adoption. Classify vendors by risk tier. A stationery supplier doesn’t need the same scrutiny as a cloud services provider. Apply a minimum cyber baseline. If a vendor cannot meet basic security controls, such as MFA, encryption and vulnerability management, they should not even qualify, regardless of price. This is not cost inflation. It’s cost prevention.
Resilience metrics
If you only measure savings, procurement will only deliver savings. Expand the scoreboard.
Resilience KPIs could include:
Mean time to detect (MTTD): How quickly does a supplier detect incidents? Mean time to respond (MTTR): How fast do they contain breaches? Recovery time objectives (RTOs): How quickly can systems or services be restored? Patch management cadence: Average time to remediate critical vulnerabilities. Disclosure speed: How fast does a vendor reports breaches or exposures? Imagine reporting these alongside contract savings in quarterly board updates. Suddenly, procurement leaders see resilience as part of their job, not a nuisance.
Cross-functional governance
Procurement cannot navigate cyber risk alone. You need CFOs, CROs, CIOs and CISOs at the table.
The CFO ensures the business case is sound, balancing savings against potential loss exposure. The CRO frames supplier decisions within the context of the enterprise’s risk appetite. The CIO and CISO ensure digital suppliers meet the organization’s cyber and operational resilience standards. Without this alignment, procurement decisions drift into cost myopia. With it, they anchor in strategy.
Strategic supplier partnerships
Relationships, not transactions, build resilience. If you treat suppliers like commodities, they will act like commodities. In a crisis, they’ll give you the bare minimum required by the contract.
An article in Procurement Magazine argues that procurement is shifting from transactional interactions toward deep supplier partnerships that emphasize trust, shared value and resilience. It demonstrates how these relationships enable procurement functions to drive innovation, manage risk and deliver lasting business impact.
If you cultivate long-term partnerships, they’ll invest in joint resilience. They’ll disclose incidents quickly. They’ll share threat intelligence. They’ll prioritize your recovery.
Concrete actions:
Sign resilience-focused SLAs covering uptime, response times and breach notification. Hold quarterly joint security reviews. Run joint red-team or tabletop exercises. Establish escalation channels beyond account managers, allowing CISOs and CTOs to communicate directly during crises. Partnerships cost more upfront. But they pay dividends when disruption strikes.
Scenario testing
Procurement decisions must survive stress tests. Don’t assume contracts will hold under pressure. Test them. Run simulations:
What happens when ransomware hits your cloud provider? How fast does your SaaS partner notify you of an exposure? If your outsourced developer leaks data, how quickly can you shut access down? Can a logistics partner reroute around a cyber disruption at a port? These tests reveal weaknesses early, when you can fix them without incurring significant consequences. They also signal to suppliers that resilience is non-negotiable.
Embedding cyber resilience into procurement culture
Changing the mindset is the hard part. Procurement has long treated cost as the hero metric. You need to reset the narrative.
Celebrate resilience wins in the same breath as cost savings. Highlight how a supplier’s strong security posture avoided disruption. Train procurement professionals to understand cyber basics; what MFA, patch cadence or zero trust mean in practice. Make resilience part of career progression. Reward procurement leaders who achieve sustainable value, not just savings. The cultural shift transforms procurement from bargain hunters into resilience builders. And that is how you make resilience sustainable.
The payoff
When procurement weaves in cyber resilience, you don’t just avoid losses; you create an advantage. You recover faster than rivals. You protect customer trust. You maintain operations when others stumble. That is not an extra cost. That is an advantage.
Resilience is not an extra cost. It’s strategic insurance. It is the reason your savings last instead of evaporating in the next breach.
Short-term procurement savings look good in board reports. But when cyber incidents strike, those savings often collapse into losses. You don’t want to be the leader explaining how millions saved turned into billions lost.
The takeaway is clear: Cost efficiency and resilience are not enemies. They are allies when appropriately governed. Procurement must evolve from cheapest supplier wins to most sustainable partner wins.
As a leader, your call is clear. Redefine procurement’s mandate. Add cyber resilience to the scoreboard. Demand metrics beyond cost. Stress-test decisions. Elevate procurement from bargain hunter to resilience builder.
Being penny-wise but pound-foolish is not just careless. It’s existential.

“Gartner strongly recommends that organizations block all AI browsers for the foreseeable future because of the cybersecurity risks,” analysts Dennis Xu, Evgeny Mirolyubov, and John Watts wrote in a research note last week. They made their recommendation based on risks they had already identified, “and other potential risks that are yet to be discovered, given this is a very nascent technology.”
The warning is timely, as AI browsers are already gaining a foothold in the enterprise: 27.7% of organizations already have at least one user with Atlas installed, with some enterprises seeing up to 10% of employees actively using the browser, cybersecurity firm Cyberhaven said in October. It found adoption rates highest in the technology industry (67%), pharmaceuticals (50%), and finance (40%), all sectors with heightened security requirements.
ChatGPT Atlas, launched on October 21, saw 62 times more corporate downloads than Perplexity Comet, which was released July 9, according to Cyberhaven. The launch of Atlas also sparked renewed interest in AI browsers overall, with Comet downloads surging sixfold during the same week.
But concerns were raised immediately after the launch of ChatGPT Atlas about the threat posed by AI browsers, with analysts pointing to prompt injection vulnerabilities and data security concerns.
Sensitive data at risk
The reason AI browsers are of concern is that when they send active web content, browsing history, and open tab contents to the cloud for analysis, enterprises lose control of their data.
Perplexity’s documentation, for example, warns that “Comet may process some local data using Perplexity’s servers to fulfill your queries. This means Comet reads context on the requested page (such as text and email) in order to accomplish the task requested.”
Mirolyubov, senior director analyst at Gartner, said, “The real issue is that the loss of sensitive data to AI services can be irreversible and untraceable. Organizations may never recover lost data.”
It’s not just where the browsers send your data for processing that is a concern; it’s what they do as a result : “Erroneous agentic transactions raise accountability concerns in case of expensive errors,” he said.
Traditional controls inadequate
AI browsers can autonomously navigate websites, fill out forms, and complete transactions while authenticated to web resources. As he and his colleagues wrote in their report, this makes the AI browsers susceptible to new cybersecurity risks, “such as indirect prompt-injection-induced rogue agent actions, inaccurate reasoning-driven erroneous agent actions, and further loss and abuse of credentials if the AI browser is deceived into autonomously navigating to a phishing website.”
“Traditional controls are inadequate for the new risks introduced by AI browsers, and solutions are only beginning to emerge,” Mirolyubov said. “A major gap exists in inspecting multi-modal communications with browsers, including voice commands to AI browsers.”
Prompt injection remains a particular concern, OpenAI CISO Dane Stuckey acknowledged in a post to X, formerly Twitter, the day after ChatGPT Atlas’s launch: “Prompt injection remains a frontier, unsolved security problem, and our adversaries will spend significant time and resources to find ways to make ChatGPT agents fall for these attacks.”
Discovered vulnerabilities highlight immaturity
Beyond theoretical risks, concrete security flaws have emerged in both major AI browsers. Days after ChatGPT Atlas launched, researchers discovered it stores OAuth tokens unencrypted with overly permissive file settings on macOS, potentially allowing unauthorized access to user accounts. The vulnerability was documented by security research group Teamwin on October 27.
OpenAI had not released a patch as of October 31, when Gartner completed its research.
Separately, cybersecurity firm LayerX Security reported in August the discovery of a vulnerability in Comet called “CometJacking” that could potentially exfiltrate user data to attacker-controlled servers.
OpenAI and Perplexity did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Years, not months, to mature
The discovered vulnerabilities highlight broader concerns about the maturity of AI browser technology. “Security and privacy must become core design principles rather than afterthoughts,” Mirolyubov said. AI browser vendors must incorporate enterprise-grade cybersecurity controls from the outset and provide greater transparency regarding data flows and agentic decisions, he said.
Emerging AI usage control solutions will likely take “a matter of years rather than months” to mature, he said. “Eliminating all risks is unlikely — erroneous actions by AI agents will remain a concern. Organizations with low risk tolerance may need to block AI browsers for the longer term.”
Organizations with higher risk tolerance that want to experiment should limit pilots to small groups tackling low-risk use cases that are easy to verify and roll back, the Gartner report said. Users must “always closely monitor how the AI browser autonomously navigates when interacting with web resources.”
For now, Gartner said, organizations should block AI browser installations using existing network and endpoint security controls and review their AI policies to ensure that broad use of AI browsers is prohibited.
“Today, most cybersecurity teams choose to block AI browsers, delaying adoption until risks are better understood and controls are more mature,” Mirolyubov said.

"I love my team, and I love my job at Apple, and I don't plan on leaving anytime soon," said Srouji, in a memo obtained by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Here is Srouji's full memo, as shared by Bloomberg:Last week, Gurman said that Srouji recently told Apple CEO Tim Cook that he was "seriously considering leaving in the near future." Srouji did not explicitly deny the report, but it appears that he has no plans to leave Apple for now.
Srouji informed colleagues that he would be interested in working for another company if he did leave Apple, rather than retiring, according to Gurman.
Srouji is Apple's Senior Vice President of Hardware Technologies. He joined the company in 2008 to lead development of the iPhone 4's A4 chip, the first Apple-designed system-on-a-chip. He previously held senior positions at Intel and IBM.
Apple's chips have achieved many performance records, making Srouji one of the company's most important executives. For example, the A17 Pro chip in the iPhone 17 Pro models offers the world's fastest CPU in any smartphone, while Apple silicon chips in Macs continue to deliver industry-leading performance per watt.
Apple is facing turnover among its top ranks. Apple's operations chief Jeff Williams recently retired, and he will soon be followed by the company's AI research chief John Giannandrea, environmental chief Lisa Jackson, and general counsel Kate Adams. In addition, Apple's software design chief Alan Dye is joining Meta's Reality Labs later this month. Finally, Cook is reportedly planning to step down as CEO as early as next year.Tags: Johny Srouji, Mark Gurman

Counterpoint Research's Global Monthly Handset Model Sales Tracker shows that the iPhone 16 was the best-selling smartphone worldwide during the third quarter of 2025. Well into its second year of life, the device's sustained performance is attributed to continued demand among users upgrading from older iPhone generations, expanded carrier promotions in developed markets, and the broad appeal of the standard iPhone configuration in regions where ultra-premium models represent a smaller share of total volume.
Alongside the iPhone 16's continued leadership, Counterpoint says the iPhone 17 Pro Max entered the quarterly global top-10 list and became the best-selling smartphone in September 2025, despite "limited availability towards the end of the quarter." According to the firm, demand for the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max was strengthened by a large cohort of users who purchased iPhones during the COVID-19 period and returned for major upgrades this year. New features such as a 48-megapixel telephoto camera with 8x optical zoom and a vapor-chamber cooling system represent one of Apple's most substantial year-over-year camera and thermal architecture revisions and contributed materially to monthly sales growth.
The same dataset indicates that, while Apple maintained its position at the top of the global rankings with the iPhone 16 and expanded momentum with the iPhone 17 Pro Max, Samsung increased its presence in the top-10 list to five positions, all from the Galaxy A series.
A separate Counterpoint analysis of the global foldable smartphone sector shows that the premium market segment where Apple has not yet entered continued to grow at a materially faster pace than the broader industry. The firm reports that global foldable shipments increased 14% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2025, which is the highest quarterly shipment volume ever recorded for the category.
Counterpoint attributes much of this performance to Samsung's Galaxy Z 7 series, especially the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which generated "exceptionally strong consumer response" due to a slimmer and lighter enclosure, reduced crease visibility, and an upgraded hinge mechanism designed for improved durability. While Apple has not released a foldable iPhone, rumors suggest that the company will debut such a device as soon as next year.
Meanwhile, Counterpoint's U.S. Weekly Smartphone Promotions Index shows that Apple intensified its promotional activity in response to unusually early and aggressive Pixel 10 discounts led by Google. Apple finished the period overtaking Google. Tag: Counterpoint

This feature will allow you to remotely unlock, lock, and start a second-generation R1S or R1T with an iPhone or Apple Watch, without needing to use the Rivian app. Express Mode will be supported, meaning you can keep your iPhone in your pocket as you approach the vehicle, as unlocking the device with Face ID is not required.
Rivian is implementing a newer version of the feature with Ultra Wideband technology for passive entry, eliminating the need to place your iPhone near an NFC reader.
If your iPhone battery runs out, a Power Reserve feature ensures the Apple Wallet key can still be used for up to five hours after the device shut off.
You can share an Apple Wallet car key with up to eight family and friends via AirDrop or any messaging app, such as the Messages app or WhatsApp.
Apple Wallet car keys will not be supported in Rivian's first-generation R1S and R1T vehicles that were built through the 2024 model year.

Apple Fitness+ will become available in Chile, Hong Kong, India, the Netherlands, Singapore, Taiwan, and additional regions on December 15, with Japan scheduled to follow early next year. The expansion increases total availability to 49 countries.
Hundreds of sessions will initially be available with digitally generated voice dubbing in Spanish and German, with Japanese added when the service launches in Japan. New dubbed episodes will be released weekly across all supported regions.
The new dubbing system uses a generated voice modeled on each of the 28 Fitness+ trainers' real voices. Users will be able to switch audio tracks after starting a session or set a preferred language in the Fitness app, which will automatically default to the dubbed version when available. Apple has not previously offered dubbed workout content on Fitness+, instead relying on subtitles for non-English markets since the service launched in 2020.
Apple is also adding a new K-Pop music genre to the service, which will be available across workout types. The new category joins existing genres such as Upbeat Anthems, Latest Hits, Hip-Hop/R&B, and Latin Grooves. Apple also noted that the latest episode of Time to Walk features Japanese Formula 1 driver Yuki Tsunoda, and is available today.
Fitness+ is currently available in Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, France, Germany, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Switzerland, the UAE, the UK, and the U.S. The service will reach the newly announced 28 markets, which include Norway, Poland, the Philippines, Sweden, Vietnam, and others, on December 15.Tag: Apple Fitness Plus

As teams grow and workloads expand into Kubernetes and integrate into cloud services, simplicity fades. Kubernetes has become the operating system of the cloud, but your clusters rarely live in isolation. Real-world platforms are a complex intermixing of proprietary cloud services – AWS S3 buckets, Azure Virtual Machines, Google Cloud SQL databases – all running alongside your containerized workloads. You and your teams are working with clusters and clouds in a sea of YAML.
Managing this hybrid sprawl often means context switching between Docker Desktop, the Kubernetes CLI, cloud provider consoles, and infrastructure as code. Simplicity fades as you juggle multiple distinct tools.
Bringing clarity back from this chaos is the new Docker Kanvas Extension from Layer5 – a visual, collaborative workspace built right into Docker Desktop that allows you to design, deploy, and operate not just Kubernetes resources, but your entire cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
What Is Kanvas?
Kanvas is a collaborative platform designed for engineers to visualize, manage, and design multi-cloud and Kubernetes-native infrastructure. Kanvas transforms the concept of infrastructure as code into infrastructure as design. This means your architecture diagram is no longer just documentation – it is the source of truth that drives your deployment. Built on top of Meshery (one of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s highest-velocity open source projects), Kanvas moves beyond simple Kubernetes manifests by using Meshery Models – definitions that describe the properties and behavior of specific cloud resources. This allows Kanvas to support a massive catalog of Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) components:
AWS: Over 55+ services (e.g., EC2, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB). Azure: Over 50+ components (e.g., Virtual Machines, Blob Storage, VNet). GCP: Over 60+ services (e.g., Compute Engine, BigQuery, Pub/Sub). Kanvas bridges the gap between abstract architecture and concrete operations through two integrated modes: Designer and Operator.
Designer Mode (declarative mode)
Designer mode serves as a “blueprint studio” for cloud architects and DevOps teams, emphasizing declarative modeling – describing what your infrastructure should look like rather than how to build it step-by-step – making it ideal for GitOps workflows and team-based planning.
Build and iterate collaboratively: Add annotations, comments for design reviews, and connections between components to visualize data flows, architectures, and relationships. Dry-run and validate deployments: Before touching production, simulate your deployments by performing a dry-run to verify that your configuration is valid and that you have the necessary permissions. Import and export: Brownfield designs by connecting your existing clusters or importing Helm charts from your GitHub repositories. Reuse patterns, clone, and share: Pick from a catalog of reference architectures, sample configurations, and infrastructure templates, so you can start from proven blueprints rather than a blank design. Share designs just as you would a Google Doc. Clone designs just as you would a GitHub repo. Merge designs just as you would in a pull request. Operator Mode (imperative mode)
Kanvas Operator mode transforms static diagrams into live, managed infrastructure. When you switch to Operator mode, Kanvas stops being a configuration tool and becomes an active infrastructure console, using Kubernetes controllers (like AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) or Google Config Connector) to actively manage your designs.
Operator mode allows you to:
Load testing and performance management: With Operator’s built-in load generator, you can execute stress tests and characterize service behavior by analyzing latency and throughput against predefined performance profiles, establishing baselines to measure the impact of infrastructure configuration changes made in Designer mode. Multi-player, interactive terminal: Open a shell session with your containers and execute commands, stream and search container logs without leaving the visual topology. Streamline your troubleshooting by sharing your session with teammates. Stay in-context and avoid context-switching to external command-line tools like kubectl. Integrated observability: Use the Prometheus integration to overlay key performance metrics (CPU usage, memory, request latency) and quickly find spot “hotspots” in your architecture visually. Import your existing Grafana dashboards for deeper analysis. Multi-cluster, multi-cloud operations: Connect multiple Kubernetes clusters (across different clouds or regions) and manage workloads that span across a GKE cluster and an EKS cluster in a single topology view.them all from a single Kanvas interface. While Kanvas Designer mode is about intent (what you want to build), Operator mode is about reality (what is actually running). Kanvas Designer mode and Operator mode are simply two, tightly integrated sides of the same coin.
With this understanding, let’s see both modes in-action in Docker Desktop.
Walk-Through: From Compose to Kubernetes in Minutes
With the Docker Kanvas extension (install from Docker Hub), you can take any existing Docker Compose file and instantly see how it translates into Kubernetes, making it incredibly easy to understand, extend, and deploy your application at scale.
The Docker Samples repository offers a plethora of samples. Let’s use the Spring-based PetClinic example below.
# sample docker-compose.yml services: petclinic: build: context: . dockerfile: Dockerfile.multi target: development ports: - 8000:8000 - 8080:8080 environment: - SERVER_PORT=8080 - MYSQL_URL=jdbc:mysql://mysqlserver/petclinic volumes: - ./:/app depends_on: - mysqlserver mysqlserver: image: mysql:8 ports: - 3306:3306 environment: - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD= - MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=true - MYSQL_USER=petclinic - MYSQL_PASSWORD=petclinic - MYSQL_DATABASE=petclinic volumes: - mysql_data:/var/lib/mysql - mysql_config:/etc/mysql/conf.d volumes: mysql_data: mysql_config:
With your Docker Kanvas extension installed:
Import sample app: Save the PetClinic docker-compose.yml file to your computer, then click to import or drag and drop the file onto Kanvas.
Kanvas renders an interactive topology of your stack showing services, dependencies (like MySQL), volumes, ports, and configurations, all mapped to their Kubernetes equivalents. Kanvas performs this rendering in phases, applying an increasing degree of scrutiny in the evaluation performed in each phase. Let’s explore the specifics of this tiered evaluation process in a moment.
Enhance the PetClinic design From here, you can enhance the generated design in a visual, no-YAML way:
Add a LoadBalancer, Ingress, or ConfigMap Configure Secrets for your database URL or sensitive environment variables Modify service relationships or attach new components Add comments or any other annotations. Importantly, Kanvas saves your design as you make changes. This gives you production-ready deployment artifacts generated directly from your Compose file.
Deploy to a cluster With one click, deploy the design to any cluster connected to Docker Desktop or any other remote cluster. Kanvas handles the translation and applies your configuration.
Switch modes and interact with your app After deploying (or when managing an existing workload), switch to Operator mode to observe and manage your deployed design. You can:
Inspect Deployments, Services, Pods, and their relationships. Open a terminal session with your containers for quick debugging. Tail and search your container logs and monitor resource metrics. Generate traffic and analyze the performance of your deployment under heavy load. Share your Operator View with teammates for collaborative management.
Within minutes, a Compose-based project becomes a fully managed Kubernetes workload, all without leaving Docker Desktop. This seamless flow from a simple Compose file to a fully managed, operable workload highlights the ease by which infrastructure can be visually managed, leading us to consider the underlying principle of Infrastructure as Design.
Infrastructure as Design
Infrastructure as design elevates the visual layout of your stack to be the primary driver of its configuration, where the act of adjusting the proximity and connectedness of components is one in the same as the process of configuring your infrastructure. In other words, the presence, absence, proximity, or connectedness of individual components (all of which affect how one component relates to another) respectively augments the underlying configuration of each. Kanvas is highly intelligent in this way, understanding at a very granular level of detail how each individual component relates to all other components and will augment the configuration of those components accordingly.
Understand that the process by which Kanvas renders the topology of your stack’s architecture in phases. The initial rendering involves a lightweight analysis of each component, establishing a baseline for the contents of your new design. A subsequent phase of rendering applies a higher level of sophistication in its analysis as Kanvas introspect the configuration of each of your stack’s components, their interdependencies, and proactively evaluates the manner in which each component relates to one another. Kanvas will add, remove, and update the configuration of your components as a result of this relationship evaluation.
This process of relationship evaluation is ongoing. Every time you make a change to your design, Kanvas re-evaluates each component configuration.
To offer an example, if you were to bring a Kubernetes Deployment in the same vicinity of the Kubernetes Namespace you will find that one magnetizes to the next and that your Deployment is visually placed inside of the Namespace, and at the same time, that Deployment’s configuration is mutated to include its new Namespace designation. Kanvas proactively evaluates and mutates the configuration of the infrastructure resources in your design as you make changes.
This ability for Kanvas to intelligently interpret and adapt to changes in your design—automatically managing configuration and relationships—is the key to achieving infrastructure as design. This power comes from a sophisticated system that gives Kanvas a level of intelligence, but with the reliability of a policy-driven engine.
AI-like Intelligence, Anchored by Deterministic Truth
In an era where generative AI dramatically accelerates infrastructure design, the risk of “hallucinations”—plausible but functionally invalid configurations—remains a critical bottleneck. Kanvas solves this by pairing the generative power of AI with a rigid, deterministic policy engine.
This engine acts as an architectural guardrail, offering you precise control over the degree to which AI is involved in assessing configuration correctness. It transforms designs from simple visual diagrams into validated, deployable blueprints.
While AI models function probabilistically, Kanvas’s policy engine functions deterministically, automatically analyzing designs to identify, validate, and enforce connections between components based on ground-truth rules. Each of these rules are statically defined and versioned in their respective Kanvas models.
Deep Contextualization: The evaluation goes beyond simple visualization. It treats relationships as context-aware and declarative, interpreting how components interact (e.g., data flows, dependencies, or resource sharing) to ensure designs are not just imaginative, but deployable and compliant. Semantic Rigor: The engine distinguishes between semantic relationships (infrastructure-meaningful, such as a TCP connection that auto-configures ports) and non-semantic relationships (user-defined visuals, like annotations). This ensures that aesthetic choices never compromise infrastructure integrity. Kanvas acknowledges that trust is not binary. You maintain sovereignty over your designs through granular controls that dictate how the engine interacts with AI-generated suggestions:
“Human-in-the-Loop” Slider: You can modulate the strictness of the policy evaluation. You might allow the AI to suggest high-level architecture while enforcing strict policies on security configurations (e.g., port exposure or IAM roles). Selective Evaluation: You can disable evaluations via preferences for specific categories. For example, you may trust the AI to generate a valid Kubernetes Service definition, but rely entirely on the policy engine to validate the Ingress controller linking to it. Kanvas does not just flag errors; it actively works to resolve them using sophisticated detection and correction strategies.
Intelligent Scanning: The engine scans for potential relationships based on component types, kinds, and subtypes (e.g., a Deployment linking to a Service via port exposure), catching logical gaps an AI might miss. Patches and Resolvers: When a partial or a hallucinated configuration is detected, Kanvas applies patches to either propagate missing configuration or dynamically adjusts configurations to resolve conflicts, ensuring the final infrastructure-as-code export (e.g., Kubernetes manifests, Helm chart) is clean, versionable, and secure. Turn Complexity into Clarity
Kanvas takes the guesswork out of managing modern infrastructure. For developers used to Docker Compose, it offers a natural bridge to Kubernetes and cloud services — with visibility and collaboration built in.

Die Sicherheit der Betriebstechnik (Operational Technology – OT) in kritischen Infrastrukturen ist seit Jahren ein immer wiederkehrendes Thema. Nach Ansicht von Sicherheitsorganisationen könnte die vermehrte Nutzung von KI in der OT die Lage noch verschlimmern.
Die US-Cybersicherheitsbehörde CISA hat deshalb vor kurzem gemeinsam mit internationalen Partnerbehörden Handlungsempfehlungen zur sicheren Integration künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) in Operational Technology(OT) kritischer Infrastrukturen (PDF) herausgegeben.
Da der Einsatz von KI in kritischen OT-Infrastrukturen noch in den Kinderschuhen steckt, lesen sich die Leitlinien wie ein Versuch, Missbrauch und Fehlanwendungen zuvorzukommen.
Im OT-Bereich wird KI derzeit primär in den Sektoren Energie, Wasseraufbereitung, Gesundheitswesen und Fertigung eingesetzt. Der Grund ist der gleiche wie an anderen Stellen: Um Prozesse zu optimieren sowie automatisieren und damit Effizienz und Verfügbarkeit zu verbessern.
Sicherheitsbehörden befürchten, dass Unternehmen sich auf eine neue und noch nicht ausgereifte Technologie einlassen, ohne deren Grenzen zu bewerten, ähnlich wie es in der IT geschehen ist. Unter Berücksichtigung der Risiken für industrielle Steuerungssysteme (Industrial Control Systems – ICS) gemäß der Purdue-Modellhierarchie werden in den Leitlinien Bedenken wie Prompt Injektion, Datenvergiftung und Datenerfassung aufgezählt. Zudem wird auf „KI-Drift” hingewiesen, bei dem Modelle weniger genau werden, wenn neue Daten von den Trainingsdaten abweichen.
Die Autoren befürchten zudem, dass KI möglicherweise nicht die erforderlichen Hinweise liefert, um Fehler zu diagnostizieren. Darüber hinaus sei es schwierig, die Compliance-Anforderungen zu erfüllen, da sich KI rasch weiterentwickelt, so die Behörden. Zusätzlich weist das Paper darauf hin, dass es zu einem De-Skilling-Effekt beim Menschen kommt, verursacht durch eine schleichende Überabhängigkeit von KI. Ebenso könnten KI-Warnmeldungen zu Ablenkung und kognitiver Überlastung bei den Mitarbeitern führen.
Schließlich lässt die Tendenz von KI-Technologien wie Chatbots und LLMs zu Halluzinationen Zweifel daran aufkommen, ob die Technologie robust genug ist, um in Umgebungen eingesetzt zu werden, in denen Sicherheit oberste Priorität hat.
„KI ist möglicherweise nicht zuverlässig genug, um in industriellen Umgebungen eigenständig kritische Entscheidungen zu treffen. Daher sollte KI wie LLM mit ziemlicher Sicherheit nicht für Security-Entscheidungen in OT-Umgebungen verwendet werden“, so die Autoren der Leitlinien.
Dies unterstreicht einen wichtigen Unterschied zwischen der Verwendung von KI in einer OT- und einer IT-Umgebung: OT-Netzwerke sind von Natur aus sicherheitskritisch.
Schwierigkeiten bei der Entflechtung
„Die Leitlinien werfen die richtigen Fragen auf: Welche Risiken gehen wir ein, welchen Wert bringt KI wirklich, wer ist für die Aufsicht verantwortlich und wie reagieren wir, wenn die Technologie versagt?“, kommentiert Sam Maesschalck, OT-Ingenieur bei der Cybersicherheits-Schulungsplattform Immersive Labs. „Wir haben bereits gesehen, was passiert, wenn operative Anforderungen das sichere Design übersteigen. Die IT/OT-Konvergenz brachte Effizienz, aber sie legte auch OT-Netzwerke in einer Weise offen, mit der die Branche immer noch zu kämpfen hat.“
Laut Maesschalck würde die Einbindung von KI-Systemen in die OT-Infrastruktur scheitern, wenn nicht zuerst bereits bestehende Probleme gelöst werden. Dazu gehören die Unfähigkeit einiger OT-Geräte, die erforderlichen Datenmengen an KI-Plattformen zu liefern, und das Fehlen von Bestandsaufnahmen, die die Vorhersage von Probleminteraktionen erschweren.
Zu den Empfehlungen der Leitlinien gehört, dass Organisationen die Sicherheitsdesign-Grundsätze der CISA übernehmen und prüfen sollten, ob die interne Entwicklung eines KI-OT-Projekts ihnen langfristig mehr Kontrolle über das KI-Design und die KI-Implementierung verschaffen würde.
„Diese Art von Leitlinien ist einflussreich, weil Betreiber nach Klarheit suchen. Durch staatlich unterstützte Grundsätze, auf die sie sich beziehen können, haben Eigentümer und Ingenieure etwas Konkretes, worauf sie sich berufen können, wenn sie sich gegen eine unsichere oder übereilte Einführung wehren. Außerdem wird dadurch die Bedeutung von Aufklärung unterstrichen“, so Maesschalck.
Die Leitlinien folgen auf den Bericht der NSA und des ACSC aus dem letzten Jahr, in dem die Schritte aufgeführt sind, die Unternehmen zur Sicherung der OT in kritischen Infrastrukturen durchführen sollten. In keinem der beiden Dokumente wird jedoch auf die anhaltenden Bedenken eingegangen, dass die OT-Sicherheit immer noch nicht das Budget erhält, das sie verdient. (jm)

According to "Smart Pikachu," a Weibo account that has previously shared accurate supply-chain details on Chinese Android hardware, Apple is testing the special glass as a way to let the TrueDepth system's infrared sensors pass through the panel without distortion.
The approach is similar to existing industry techniques that use micro-perforated or nano-patterned glass to selectively improve IR transmission in a localized region above the sensor array.
The report also suggests Apple's work has already prompted related suppliers to accelerate preparation for potential production.
There have been several rumors suggesting the iPhone 18 Pro models will include under-display Face ID, but some disagreement over whether we'll see the technology in 2026. A May report by The Information claimed that iPhone 18 Pro models will have no Dynamic Island with just a pinhole cutout located at the upper left of the display, but other rumors suggest there's still going to be a Dynamic Island.
Analyst Ross Young said that the iPhone 18 Pro models could have under-display Face ID, but that doesn't mean there won't be no Dynamic Island at all. Instead, the pill-shaped hole will be smaller. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has also spoken of a slimmed down Dynamic Island for the iPhone 18 Pro models.
The new claim of a micro-transparent glass window supports the view that there will be a smaller Dynamic Island that shifts TrueDepth sensing components below the screen while retaining a smaller cutout for the front camera. While Smart Pikachu does not specifically mention the Pro models, supply-chain sources often use "series" loosely when discussing early panel and materials testing, and all previous rumors have related to Apple's high-end models.
Apple is expected to release the iPhone 18 Pro models in September, alongside an all-new foldable iPhone, as part of a new split cycle launch. The regular iPhone 18 and the more affordable iPhone 18e are not expected to debut until early 2027.Related Roundup: iPhone 18Tag: Smart PikachuRelated Forum: iPhone

What is MSBuild? The Heart of .NET Builds
MSBuild means Microsoft Build Engine. It is the main tool used to build, test, and package .NET apps. Think of it as a very good helper for your projects. You give it your project files and code. MSBuild then does all the steps to make your final software. It reads the project files, handles what other parts your code needs, calls the compiler, and puts everything together without you having to do each step by hand.
This tool gives your team many good things. Here is a simple table to show the benefits:
BenefitWhat It MeansWhy It MattersEasy AutomationMSBuild does repetitive build steps for youSaves time, reduces human errors, lets you focus on codingBetter TeamworkConnects to tools like Azure DevOps and JenkinsCreates smooth, shared pipelines everyone can useBuilds You Can ChangeYou can create custom tasks and targetsMakes the build process fit your project’s special needsWorks EverywhereRuns on Windows, Linux, and macOSSupports building apps for any operating system Without really knowing MSBuild, developers often face build errors they don’t understand. They get different results each time they build. Their work cycles are slow with lots of waiting. Learning this tool well turns these daily problems into smooth, automatic steps that work the same way every time.
Why Learning MSBuild By Yourself is Hard
There is a lot of information about MSBuild online. But learning it alone is often difficult. The official guides from Microsoft are full of details. But they can be hard for beginners to follow. Online forums and blogs give answers to specific problems. But they don’t give you the full picture from start to finish.
Here are the main problems people face when learning alone:
ProblemWhat HappensWhy It’s DifficultComplex Project SetupProjects take longer to finish and are hard to maintainUnderstanding project files and dependencies is confusing without guidanceHard-to-Understand ErrorsLong troubleshooting times that delay workError codes like “MSB1234” don’t explain what’s actually wrongMaking Builds FasterSlow builds waste time and computer resourcesDon’t know about incremental builds, parallel runs, or proper cachingConnecting to CI/CDBroken deployment steps and team coordination issuesNeed to understand both MSBuild and CI/CD tools to connect them properly These problems together make learning slow and frustrating. You might miss important ideas. This can affect when projects get done, how good the code is, and how well the team works together.

The image shows what seems to be a Vision Pro's left power strap and audio pod with the attached power cable. It seems to be identical to Apple's existing hardware, but uses a dark finish not seen on any production Vision Pro hardware.
Kosutami previously claimed that Apple has been testing a thinner and lighter mixed-reality headset referred to internally as "Vision Air," featuring a Midnight-colored exterior and reduced weight achieved by switching several structural components and the battery enclosure to titanium. According to the leaker, this model would retain an aluminum exterior but adopt a deep bluish-black finish rather than the Vision Pro's current silver and white.
Earlier this year, Kosutami also shared images of a new Lightning-style connector in Midnight said to be intended for a next-generation Vision headset. The existing Vision Pro uses a 12-pin connector, while the unreleased cable featured only eight pins, which seemed to indicate that Apple may have been redesigning the external battery system for future headsets.
Apple had been widely expected to release a lower-cost headset called the "Vision Air," as well as a redesigned second-generation Vision Pro. However, Bloomberg reported in October that Apple paused development of all Vision headsets in order to accelerate work on AI-powered smart glasses.Related Roundup: Apple Vision ProTag: KosutamiBuyer's Guide: Vision Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: Apple Vision Pro

Under the proposal, smartphone makers including Apple would be required to activate satellite-assisted GPS on their devices at all times with no option for users to disable the feature. The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) argues that location data from cell tower triangulation is not sufficiently precise for investigative use and that authorities should have access to meter-level coordinates provided by GPS.
GPS is typically activated only when specific apps request location access or when an emergency call is placed. The COAI has also asked the government to require smartphone makers to disable pop-up notifications that inform users when a carrier is attempting to access location information.
Apple has formally opposed the proposal. In a letter sent in July by the India Cellular & Electronics Association (ICEA), which represents Apple and Google, the companies warned the government that forcing GPS to remain active at all times would constitute a regulatory overreach.
The news comes shortly after India reversed a separate directive that would have required all smartphone makers, including Apple, to preinstall a government app and prevent users from disabling its functions. The order was rescinded after widespread criticism.Tag: India

Srouji apparently recently told CEO Tim Cook that he is "seriously considering leaving" in the nature future. He intends to join another company if he departs. Srouji leads Apple's chip design and pioneered the transition to Apple silicon.
Earlier this week, it emerged that Meta had hired multiple significant Apple employees, including longtime Apple designer Alan Dye, while conducting its own recruiting blitz for AI and smartglasses development. Meanwhile, Apple announced the retirement of Senior Vice President and General Counsel Kate Adams, Lisa Jackson, Vice President of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives, and AI chief John Giannandrea. Earlier this year, Apple lost Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams, who is retiring, and Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri. There have also been rumors about Apple CEO Tim Cook retiring, with rumors suggesting he is preparing to leave his role as soon as next year.
Gurman says that the losses are partly due to veteran executives nearing retirement age, but there is still a "disconcerting brain drain" taking place in the company. Nevertheless, Gurman says the accumulative weight of the departures all add up to "one of the most tumultuous stretches of Cooks tenure." Some of the losses are said to be a "cause for deep concern," and Cook is now looking to prevent further loss of leading talent with stronger compensation packages.
Gurman notes that "Apple hasn't launched a successful new product category in a decade," leaving it increasingly vulnerable to having its talent poached by more agile rivals who are said to be better equipped to develop the next generation of devices and AI technologies.
Cook himself is thought to be likely to join the exodus and step down in the not-too-distant future. He turned 65 last month and now exhibits a noticeable, unexplained tremor in his hands. He is likely to transition to the role of chairman, rather than vacate the company entirely.
The departure of Srouji is said to be "a more imminent risk" and Cook is purportedly working hard to retain him by offering a substantial pay package and the potential of more responsibility. Some executives have suggested elevating Srouji to the role of chief technology officer. This would move him to oversee a broad range of hardware engineering and silicon technologies, making him Apple's second-most powerful executive.
Gurman says this change would likely require John Ternus to be promoted to CEO, but Srouji apparently would prefer to not work under a different CEO, even with an expanded remit. If he does leave, Srouji would likely be replaced by Zongjian Chen or Sribalan Santhanam. Beyond Srouji and the other reported departures, Apple is believed to be contending with a significant talent drain among its key engineers.
Gurman explains that there has been a "a broader collapse within Apple's artificial intelligence organization" triggered by AI models chief Ruoming Pang departing earlier this year, along with colleagues such as Tom Gunter and Frank Chu. Apple lost Siri and search overseer Robby Walker, as well as his replacement, Ke Yang, to Meta.
Apple's AI group is apparently suffering from low morale and there is growing worry over the increasing use of external AI technology such as Google Gemini. Around a dozen of Apple's leading AI researchers have also now departed.
The company's AI robotics software team has seen widespread departures, including its leader Jian Zhang, who joined Meta. The user interface team has also lost members, such as Billy Sorrentino, culminating in Dye's exit.
Apple's hardware design group "has been nearly wiped out," with many employees vacating to other companies or following former design chief Jony Ive to his studio, LoveFrom. Abidur Chowdhury, the designer behind the iPhone Air who narrated its unveiling in September, left for an AI startup.
The company has lost a key director in charge of display technologies, Cheng Chen, to OpenAI. He also oversaw the optics of the Vision Pro headset. In addition, one of Apple’s top hardware engineering executives, Tang Tan, similarly left for OpenAI.
Apple has even lost the dean of Apple University, Richard Locke. Apple University is the internal program intended to preserve the company's practices and culture following the death of Steve Jobs.
The exodus has become a major concern for Apple's leadership, which has instructed human resources to ramp up recruitment and retention efforts. See Gurman's full report report for more information.Tags: Bloomberg, Johny Srouji, Mark Gurman, Tim Cook
