Thousands of Hacked WordPress Sites, One Operation: Unmasking StopAndProtect (12 minute read)
A massive malware operation leveraging 2,000 compromised WordPress sites is tricking visitors with fake Cloudflare CAPTCHAs to execute malicious PowerShell commands. Researchers attributed the sprawling campaign to a single operator who accidentally infected their own machine, leaking their Visual Basic 6 management tools and exposing over 6,000 victim IPs. Security teams should proactively hunt for anomalous must-use plugins like wp-sec.php and strictly enforce WordPress patching to prevent infrastructure hijacking.

800VDC Pushes AI Power Design From Grid To Gate (4 minute read)
This article details how AI datacenters are evaluating the transition to 800VDC architectures of power distribution. Moving away from current 48V distribution streamlines the conversion path from medium-voltage grid AC to sub-1V silicon, cutting conversion heat losses and reducing heavy copper cabling requirements. Realizing this grid-to-gate efficiency relies on silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) power semiconductors, solid-state transformers, and upgraded DC-rated switchgear to manage high-voltage safety and rapid load switching across AI clusters. While these technologies are rapidly maturing, it still may take years to change datacenter designs that form the bedrock of all computing stacks.
