PECYour computer running more slowly than normal is a sign it may have a virus. Viruses can infect computers by opening emails from unknown people or clicking links in them, plugging in external drives from others, or downloading files from unfamiliar sites without a firewall. Spyware secretly steals users' information and sends it to others, and can infect computers through unfamiliar download sites or not installing Windows Updates. Mozilla Firefox provides the best protection against spyware and viruses compared to other browsers like Internet Explorer.

Computer viruses are programs designed to spread from computer to computer and cause harm. Common signs of a virus include slowed performance, freezing, crashing, and error messages. Viruses spread through email attachments, pirated software, USB drives, and infected boot sectors or documents. The first virus was created in 1982 by a 15-year-old student named Rich Skrenta. While anti-virus software helps, it is not enough on its own - users must also practice safe browsing habits and keep systems updated.
Computer virus 2015
A computer virus is a small program that spreads from one computer to another and interferes with computer operation. Viruses can spread through email attachments, downloads, shared files, and more. Infected computers may experience slow performance, crashing, missing files, and unusual error messages. To protect computers, people should install antivirus software, update security programs, use firewalls and pop-up blockers, and backup important files. Antivirus programs detect and remove known viruses, while online scanning services can also help identify infected files.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
