A Chrome update on Android aims to simplify and speed up online identity verification. This improvement will allow users to save time when validating their identity or accessing certain online services. The UN has used CryptPad, a French open-source office suite, instead of Microsoft Forms. Steam denies a hack despite a data leak affecting 89 million players. ESET has identified an espionage campaign by the Sednit group (APT28), exploiting XSS vulnerabilities in online messaging services, aligned with Russian interests.
