What happened

Multiple high-impact security stories: Microsoft is testing Windows 11 improvements to harden CMD/batch execution. North Korean APT37 is deploying new tools to bridge air-gapped networks via removable drives and covert surveillance. Europol-led "Project Compass" resulted in 30 arrests tied to "The Com" cybercrime collective. CISA warns the RESURGE implant — used in zero-day attacks against Ivanti Connect Secure — can remain dormant on devices (associated with CVE-2025-0282). Trend Micro patched two critical Apex One RCE flaws, and Juniper disclosed a critical Junos OS Evolved flaw in PTXSeries
