Omnicom said that it had acquired rival Interpublic for $13 billion in allstock terms, making it the most prominent advertising giant in the world based on revenue. The deal, which needs shareholder and regulatory approval, comes as the advertising sector is facing growing competition and threats from tech companies. Omnicom will exchange Interpublic stockholders shares for Omnicom stock by paying a 22% premium over Interpublics latest share price. The anticipated yearly cost savings of $750 million from the deal could balance the $2.4 billion premium. Some industry observers saw the merger as a defensive tactic rather than an inventive one, notwithstanding the financial justification. Under John Wrens leadership, the company will make around $26 billion in 2023. Read More..

An issue that would take billions of years for traditional computers to solve was resolved in five minutes by Googles new chip, Willow, marking a breakthrough in quantum computing. In contrast to previous circuits, Willow has 105 qubits, and as the number of qubits increases, error rates decrease—a crucial development in quantum error correction. By enabling realtime mistake correction, the technology significantly advances functional quantum systems. This development occurred as computer companies like Microsoft and IBM competed to employ quantum computing for AI, medical, and energy applications. Made at Googles specialised laboratory, Willow highlights the companys emphasis on creating dependable qubits rather than just numbers. By addressing earlier critiques, Googles estimations reinforced its assertions of quantum dominance. Read More..

Critical Windows Vulnerability in afd.sys Exploited by Lazarus Group

There is a danger because of a severe vulnerability in the Windows afd.sys driver that could allow attackers to escalate privileges and run arbitrary

There is a danger because of a severe vulnerability in the Windows afd.sys driver that could allow attackers to escalate privileges and run arbitrary code. Exodus Intelligences security specialists have examined the vulnerability and found that the Lazarus Group has exploited it to distribute the advanced malware FudModule. Due to a race issue in the Registered I/O extension of Windows sockets, this vulnerability allows attackers to alter released buffer structures, facilitating privilege escalation. According to the researchers, the vulnerability can be exploited to change essential system structures and gain elevated privileges through a multistage attack method that includes heap spraying. With the publication of a proofofconcept, the threat level to the exploit has increased. Users are advised to update immediately once Microsoft fixed this issue in August 2024. Read More..
