First, we look back at Microsoft’s major shift to remove endpoint protection from the Windows kernel.

And finally, a refresher on the arrest of a Scattered Spider leader. While that made headlines, the group's activity hasn’t slowed down, they're still very much on the radar, as we discussed just last week.
