Understanding the cost of deploying a Hugging Face model involves considering compute requirements, inference time, and hardware pricing. Let’s break it down.

Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) is an Amazon Web Services (AWS) hosting service that extends scalable and secure virtual computing systems known as instances. They allow users to have their applications hosted in a scalable environment whereby computing resources can be easily scaled up or down as necessary. EC2 provides several instance types that can handle a variety of uses, from general-purpose and compute instances to those designed for memory-intensive applications.

The rise of generative AI (GenAI) over the past two years has driven a whirlwind of innovation and a massive surge in demand from enterprises worldwide to utilize this transformative technology. However, with this drive for rapid innovation comes increased risks, as the pressure to build quickly often leads to cutting corners around security. Additionally, adversaries are now using GenAI to scale their malicious activities, making attacks more prevalent and potentially more damaging than ever before.

PowerShell is a powerful command-line shell that supports scripting languages and provides tools for managing computer resources locally and remotely.

The Invoke-Command cmdlet in PowerShell enables IT admins to execute commands and scripts on remote machines, and even to redirect the output of those remote scripts to their own console. As a result, they can manage multiple machines from a central location.

As the managed service provider (MSP) industry evolves, staying competitive in 2025 requires a blend of strategic planning, cutting-edge technologies, and a strong focus on data protection. With businesses more reliant on IT than ever, MSPs must not only provide innovative services but also ensure robust data protection to guarantee business continuity.

AWS and other cloud infrastructure exposed to after attacks uncovered in the wild Cloud networking solutions provider Aviatrix has published a new vulnerability (CVE-2024-50603) in its controller. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated actors to run arbitrary commands. This Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability, rated CVSS 10 (critical), has been exploited in the wild. A patch is already available on GitHub. Alternatively, users can update to the secure versions 7.1.4191 or 7.2.4996.

Protecting sensitive information is critical in healthcare. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Health Information (PHI) form the foundation of healthcare operations. However, these data types come with significant privacy risks. Advanced de-identification techniques provide a reliable way to secure this data while complying with regulations like HIPAA.

On January 14, 2025 Fortinet confirmed a critical zero-day vulnerability, CVE-2024-55591, in Fortinet’s FortiOS and FortiProxy systems that has been actively exploited in the wild. This authentication bypass vulnerability allows attackers to gain super-admin privileges via crafted requests to the Node.js WebSocket module, enabling unauthorized access to firewalls, rogue administrative account creation, and configuration changes.

The recent Codefinger ransomware attack has sent shockwaves through the IT community, specifically targeting businesses relying on AWS S3 storage services. This breach highlights the importance of prioritizing security “best practices” to protect even the most reliable platforms.

In the IT world, it is either “revolution” or “evolution” and 2025 promises to bring both. To stay ahead, IT professionals must prioritize strategies that address emerging threats while maintaining and strengthening their security posture. Here are three critical trends shaping the future of cybersecurity and actionable steps your organization implement today.

Open-source security frameworks are an essential tool in the cybersecurity arsenal. These frameworks provide the foundation for building secure systems and adhering to key industry standards. Yet, despite their importance, many practitioners and organizations fail to tap into the full potential of these frameworks. Exploring them in depth can unlock significant value for businesses, developers, and security teams.
