University of Arkansas Establishes New Semiconductor Innovation Research Institute

University of Arkansas Establishes New Semiconductor Innovation Research Institute

The University of Arkansas has launched a new research institute, the Arkansas Research Institute for Electronics Systems (ARIES), dedicated to advancing materials science, power electronics, and semiconductors. ARIES aims to develop, produce, and deploy next-generation power electronics, microelectronics, and semiconductors by bringing together university researchers with experience in federal and industry collaborations. The institute will focus on four key research pillars: Power Electronics (including semiconductors), Cybersecurity and AI, Photonics, and Radio Frequency and Microwave Technology. ARIES integrates advanced research facilities such as the National Multi-User Silicon Carbide Research and Fabrication Laboratory (MUSiC), the High-Density Electronics Center (HiDEC), and the National Center for Reliable Electric Power Transmission (NCREPT). These facilities provide capabilities ranging from fabrication to prototyping and transitioning technologies to industry and government use. The initiative...

Social Engineering Attacks Bypass MFA, Mandiant Warns of Evolving Vishing Campaigns

Social Engineering Attacks Bypass MFA, Mandiant Warns of Evolving Vishing Campaigns

Social engineering attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated, with a notable shift towards bypassing multi-factor authentication (MFA) through advanced vishing campaigns. Cybersecurity firm Mandiant has identified an active vishing campaign, linked to the ShinyHunters criminal syndicate, that is successfully harvesting MFA codes to infiltrate SaaS platforms. These attacks, tracked under UNC6661, UNC6671, and UNC6240, demonstrate that human manipulation can circumvent even widely deployed security controls like Single Sign-On (SSO) and MFA. The attackers impersonate IT support staff, guiding victims to counterfeit SSO portals and relaying credentials in real-time. This method exploits the inherent trust between employees and internal support teams, making it uniquely effective against modern MFA deployments. Phishing remains the most prevalent social engineering technique, accounting for 77.8% of such attacks, highlighting the continued reliance on human vulnerability.
