While we wait to see if Apple really is experiencing huge demand for its newly introduced iPhones, today’s the day every iPhone user gets a completely new device experience, with iOS 27 rolling out internationally, along with the other members of Apple’s 27 series OS family. If you’re on the fence about installing the new release, here are 12 reasons you should upgrade today. Speed and performance Apple seems to have worked hard to improve speed and performance in this release. Everything feels much zippier, but where it seems most noticeable is when launching apps. Apple says these now open up [...]
Microsoft’s September 2026 Patch Tuesday is the year’s largest release, with 963 CVEs requiring customer action, 106 rated critical. Two are already exploited: CVE-2026-81963 in the Windows Update Stack and CVE-2026-85880 in Advanced Local Procedure Call. Nothing in this release was publicly disclosed ahead of the patch. Readiness recommends a Patch Now scheduling for Windows, Office, SQL Server and the developer tooling, and standard patch release for Exchange. The Readiness team has published an infographic summarising deployment risk by product family. Known issues Three client issues are carried in from August close with this update, covering: Microsoft Teams and the [...]
The newest member of the corporate workforce never sleeps, never asks for a raise, and can be cloned before lunch. It can also confidently make the wrong decision thousands of times before anyone notices. That helps explain why some technology leaders have started talking about AI agents as employees, co-workers, or interns rather than software. Once an agent can update records, issue refunds, send communications, or act across multiple enterprise systems, deploying it no longer looks much like installing another application. Recent Harvard Business Review articles have pushed that analogy further. One argues that agents should be treated like a [...]
When it comes to building robotic brains, many companies in the industry focus on putting intelligence directly into their robots. General Robotics is taking an alternate approach. The Redmond, WA company’s GRID system hosts its robotics intelligence layer in the cloud, allowing it to be delivered and deployed to robots operating remotely. GRID hosts the models, simulations, robot representations, data and agents through which robotic skills are developed, tested, orchestrated and deployed to robots on site. “Having one layer that looks after 50 to 100 robots is way more important than 50 or 100… robots that operate completely independently,” said [...]
Long before Taco Tuesday became part of the pop-culture vernacular, Tuesdays were synonymous with security — and for anyone in the tech world, they still are. Patch Tuesday, as you most likely know, refers to the day each month when Microsoft releases security updates and patches for its software products — everything from Windows to Office to SQL Server, developer tools to browsers. The practice, which happens on the second Tuesday of the month, was initiated to streamline the patch distribution process and make it easier for users and IT system administrators to manage updates. Like tacos, Patch Tuesday is [...]
Microsoft is changing the destination address of two of its most popular services: starting this month, it will redirect M365 and Teams web users to copilot.cloud.microsoft and teams.cloud.microsoft, respectively. The Teams move is already under way, and Microsoft has now added M365 to the mix. The company announced the changes in two MessageCenter posts: MC1465764 (mirror) and MC1462915 (mirror). Organizations using these products are advised to update their systems and documentation to ensure continued access. Microsoft has told customers to review configurations on client devices, proxies, firewalls, secure web gateways, or other enterprise network controls to confirm that users can [...]
ConnectWise has issued a security update for ScreenConnect, five days after warning customers the product could allow files to be transferred and executed through active remote sessions without authorization or confirmation. The company warned customers on Sept. 3 of the problem with support and access sessions in ConnectWise Remote Access, advising admins to log in and remove the “TransferFiles” permission from any users with an open session. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-84869, has been patched in the ScreenConnect client version 26.6.5 onwards. Last month ConnectWise took the opportunity to reassure customers at its IT Nation Connect Asia Pacific conference that [...]
IDC analyst Francisco Jeronimo said something interesting following the iPhone Duo introduction on Wednesday: “Apple showed up years after everyone else, yet it walks in and sets the rules.” He’s right. From the IP resistance to the little touches that set the new foldable apart from most of the competition, Apple has set expectations for the entire market, and while competitor Samsung is trash talking the foldable, even it stands to benefit from the millions Apple is about to sell. Apple is, after all, allegedly paying Samsung $250 for each iPhone Duo display. But it is not just the rules concerning foldables the company has now defined; it has [...]
Anthropic has owned up to a fourth security incident involving its AI model, Claude, escaping onto the open internet and attacking other organizations during a test of cybersecurity abilities on what was believed to be a closed system. The company revealed three such incidents in July after a preliminary investigation. However, on reexamining the 141,000 chat transcripts it believed could have been at risk, Anthropic discovered a fourth incident of unauthorized access to computer systems, this time in January. After this discovery, the company instigated a wider search of 481 million transcripts, covering all those from its Frontier Red Team, [...]
OpenAI has paused new sign-ups and upgrades to its $200 ChatGPT Pro tier, citing a surge in demand for its Astra capability that is placing pressure on system capacity, according to company statements and an executive post on X. “To make sure our current users have an incredible experience and continued access to Astra, we are going to pause subscriptions to our $200 Pro plan,” OpenAI member of technical staff Thibault Sottiaux wrote in a post on X. “These put the most strain on our systems and we wanted to take the smallest step that allows us to continue giving the broadest [...]
