Cybersecurity in the News: Critical Hijacking Bugs That Can Lead to Full Network Compromise Discovered in Azure Defender for IoT
Two CVEs scored a 10 out of 10 for severity
According to The Register:
“SentinelOne this week detailed a handful of bugs, including two critical remote code execution vulnerabilities, it found in Microsoft Azure Defender for IoT.
These security flaws, which took six months to address, could have been exploited by an unauthenticated attacker to compromise devices and take over critical infrastructure networks.”

Yocto Security: Automating compliance using OpenSCAP
Whether you are looking to embrace security automation or trying to meet regulatory compliance requirements, SCAP can play an important part of your security toolbox. Leveraging the OpenSCAP project, one can get a jumpstart in building secure devices that can be easily audited in an automated fashion.
Yocto Security: Logging with auditd
The Linux audit framework is a security system which can provide accurate information about almost all security-relevant actions running processes may take on a system. The logs created using the audit framework can be used to investigate potential security incidents. Read the full blog for info on installation to using rules files and beyond.
