The release of QEMU 4.1 has been announced. As an emulator, QEMU allows running programs compiled for one hardware platform on a system with an entirely different architecture, for example, executing an ARM application on an x86-compatible PC.

All an attacker needs is time and motivation to gain access to your network. But our job is to prevent that from happening or at least make it as difficult as possible. We need to start by identifying the weaknesses in Active Directory (AD) that an attacker could exploit to gain access […]
