Drupal Releases Security Updates

This article is contributed. See the original author and article here.

Drupal has released security updates to address a vulnerability that does not affect Drupal core but may affect some contributed projects or custom code on Drupal sites. Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to take control of an affected website.

CISA encourages users and administrators to review Drupal security advisory SA-CORE-010 and apply the necessary updates.

CISA and DoD Release 5G Security Evaluation Process Investigation Study

This article is contributed. See the original author and article here.

CISA and the Department of Defense (DoD) have released their 5G Security Evaluation Process Investigation Study for federal agencies. The new features, capabilities, and services offered by fifth-generation (5G) cellular network technology can transform mission and business operations; and federal agencies will eventually be applying different 5G usage scenarios: low-, mid-, and high-band spectrum. 

The study provides an overview of the proposed 5G Security Evaluation Process and applies the process to a private 5G network use case to demonstrate considerations for each step within the overarching process. The study is a joint effort among CISA, the Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate, and DoD’s Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering.

The proposed process detailed in the study can support government agency activities during the Risk Management Framework system-level “Prepare” step for 5G-enabled systems; and federal program and project managers should use the study’s repeatable methodology in their required evaluations. CISA encourages federal program and project managers involved in 5G implementation to review the blog post by CISA Executive Assistant Director Eric Goldstein, CISA, DHS S&T, DOD Introduce Results of an Assessment into the 5G Security Evaluation Process, which links to the study.

Azure Static Web Apps is a service that’s perfect for your full stack as well as static files projects. Yes, you heard that correctly. Regardless if you are dealing with:



  • A static resume site

  • SPA application

  • Static site generator like Gatsby etc


Azure Static Web Apps is there for you and enables you to deploy your files to Azure.



how does that work?



When you create an Azure resource, it connects your GitHub repo to Azure via workflow file in yaml. This ensures that all your future work can be pushed to Azure with nothing but Git and GitHub.
