As we close out another productive week here at rhinotech, let’s take a quick look at some key developments in computer security and tech that caught our eye. Staying informed is the first line of defense in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

In cybersecurity, Microsoft’s February Patch Tuesday addressed 59 vulnerabilities, including six zero-days already under active exploitation— a stark reminder to prioritize timely updates for Windows environments. Meanwhile, Apple rolled out fixes for a critical zero-day (CVE-2026-20700) that’s been weaponized in sophisticated attacks, underscoring the need for vigilant mobile security across iOS and macOS devices.

On the broader tech front, MIT Technology Review highlighted the 10 breakthrough technologies shaping 2026, from hyperscale data centers powering AI to innovative salt-based batteries that could revolutionize energy efficiency in IT infrastructure.
