WinMagic exposes the fundamental flaw in modern authentication: passkeys secure the login, but attackers have already moved on to sessions, tokens, and transactions. The company introduces Live Key and Live Identity in Transaction (LIT), extending cryptographic protection beyond the login moment to secure the entire session timeline—with zero user friction. TORONTO, ON, March 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Nearly half of Americans now use passkeys on at least one account, backed by Apple, Google, Microsoft, and the FIDO Alliance. The industry celebrates this shift from passwords to public-key cryptography as a phishing-resistant breakthrough. But while authentication improves, attackers have already moved on. They are no longer stealing passwords. They are targeting what happens after login: session tokens, cookies, and transactions that persist for hours with no continuous verification. Passkeys solve login. They do not solve what follows. "The long-held assumption has been that verifying a human requires a human gesture. But endpoint intelligence now makes it possible to uphold verified presence continuously without repeated interaction. A timeline of trust is stronger than a single moment of proof." - Thi Nguyen-Huu, founder and CEO of WinMagic "The entire world verifies one identity and gives access to another," said Thi Nguyen-Huu, founder and Chief Executive Officer of WinMagic. "You verify the user, then deliver data to the endpoint. That misalignment creates vulnerability." Login Is One Moment. Sessions Last Hours. Passkeys authenticate in seconds. Sessions persist for eight hours or more. Most implementations still require a user gesture such as fingerprint, face scan, PIN, or device unlock, making authentication a point-in-time event. Once that moment passes, trust relies on bearer tokens and cookies that can be stolen, replayed, or exploited across compromised devices. The industry attempts to close this gap with token rotation, device binding, and number-matchi...

Wells Fargo thinks that Netflix plans to focus on boosting engagement with more content spending in the near term. The bank resumed coverage of Netflix with an equal weight rating and $105 price target, implying that shares could rise 6% from here. The bank had previously had an overweight rating to the stock. Analyst Steven Cahall wrote that his price target is at a slight discount to Netflix's historical five-year average, as he expects a decelerating revenue profile and period of higher content investment. "We think competition is keeping investment elevated, and as a result, we expect NFLX to trade at slight discount to its [historical] P/E valuation as the market looks for clues of a verifiable engagement accel," he wrote. NFLX 1Y mountain NFLX 1Y chart Cahall expects Netflix to rebound from its saga with Warner Bros. Discovery, with Netflix ultimately choosing to walk away from the deal , by aiming to accelerate its engagement with more content. "Now that the WBD saga has ended, we think the scars on NFLX's stock can begin to heal. Investors had wondered if mgmt's interest was sparked by a slowing core biz, with fears exacerbated by 2h'25 engagement stats," he wrote. "We think WBD was NFLX's opportunistic Plan B, and now it's back to Plan A: invest for growth." In a recent press release, Netflix also noted that it plans to invest around $20 billion on content this year. Cahall expects Netflix to be more aggressive on both its annual rate of content growth and the forms of allocation, especially putting more focus on sports. The analyst also suggested that going forward, Netflix concentrate on creating a hands-on development process such as Warner Bros. Discovery's HBO. "If there's a lesson for NFLX, it's that it should build an internal HBO focused only on quality originals ( & /or look for small indie studios w/ that kind of DNA)," Cahall said. Shares of Netflix have added 6% this year and 11% over the past 12 months.

Key Points It's very easy to lose money with crypto investments. It's also easy to feel like you're winning while losing money betting on sports. As similar as they may seem, these two activities have very different implications for your wealth-building over the long term. 10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin › It feels good to feel like you're right, and, as all sports bettors know, that little hit of righteousness when you nail a bet is often just as elating as the cash return. Investing, on the other hand, is completely the opposite: Probably with some trepidation, you make a decision, and then you live with uncertainty for years, knowing that any gains you make can just as quickly be given back if the market turns. And there's nobody to tell you whether you've won or lost. Plus, if you choose to dabble in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), it's often an emotional roller coaster just to hold it for long enough to feel like you've given it a shot. So, is sports betting actually a better move than investing in crypto if you're looking to grow your hard-earned cash? Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » They couldn't build big casinos if gamblers usually won There's a technical tidbit about sports betting that most people placing bets simply don't grapple with. Sportsbooks set prices so that even if bettors split 50/50, the house keeps the "vig," which is the built-in fee embedded in the odds. Per The Motley Fool's research, football bettors lost roughly 8% to 9% of their bets during recent football seasons. The average sports bettor loses 6% per bet, or roughly $6 in losses for every $100 wagered. Your losses become growth for sports betting stocks, rather than becoming growth for your portfolio.

The Conservative spring conference in Harrogate over the weekend illustrated two important truths about Kemi Badenoch’s leadership. The first is that she has indeed started to find her feet and operate at a much more effective tempo, as attested by the gradual rise in her personal favourability ratings since last September. The second is that this is not delivering nearly the boost to her party’s fortunes that it needs to. Badenoch’s speech was perfectly serviceable; the government’s handling of defence is a big old bruise, and she is very happy to punch it. She has also partnered it with an actual policy intervention – reinstating the two-child welfare limit to fund an increase in defence spending – that adroitly targets another Labour vulnerability with rightwing voters. Yet despite all that, the cut-through has been minimal. At the time of writing, several national papers seem not to have covered the speech at all, at least online. (As I have written before, one question mark over Badenoch’s leadership is not whether she can use the spotlight – she can – but whether she can attract the spotlight when events don’t point it at her, as they do in parliament and the autumn conference.) Furthermore, in our increasingly fragmented party system, the dividends of simply bashing the government are simply going to be less than they were under the old party model, because a fall in Labour support does not automatically mean a rise in Conservative fortunes. In fact, the recent rally in Tory polling has been real but muted; they remain about six points down on where they were when Badenoch took over, and have failed to capitalise much on the recent decline in Reform UK’s polling. Winning a hearing in such conditions requires a very different strategy to the one the Conservative party is used to, and senior Tories are still struggling to get the hang of it. More substantially, they have also not yet really got to grips with the sheer scale of problems Britain faces. Badenoch’s...

It was shaping up into another ordinary day at the Colorado headquarters of the small space startup Lunar Outpost last Friday when chief executive Justin Cyrus learned of a surprise press conference called by Jared Isaacman, the new administrator of Nasa. Cyrus’s company epitomises the many private contractors of the space agency working on a myriad of projects crucial to the Artemis program that seeks to return humans to the moon, so anything Isaacman had to say about it was naturally of interest to him. What he didn’t expect was the stunning announcement that Nasa was restructuring its entire strategy for the first human lunar landing in more than half a century, and was moving its astronauts to a later, scheduled 2028 launch attempt on Artemis IV. Beset by technical issues that put the Artemis program billions of dollars over-budget and years behind schedule, as well as criticism that the agency was trying to do too much too soon, Nasa made a decision with significant consequences for its many commercial partners such as Lunar Outpost, and in the process created many more questions. But in the best traditions of decades of challenging human spaceflight, Cyrus saw opportunity from adversity. Barring further delays or rethinking by Nasa’s senior managers, the company’s Mobile Autonomous Prospecting Platform (Mapp) rover, a small but mighty technology-packed vehicle crucial to the agency’s plans for future long-term habitation on the moon, will now journey alongside the Artemis IV astronauts. “Humans will be back on the moon for the first time in over 50 years and one of our rovers will be alongside, which is a pretty awesome feeling,” he said. “For us, selfishly, that’s a pretty exciting prospect. The broader announcement I’m 100% on board with, higher cadence, more missions going to the moon. It’s fantastic Nasa has concrete plans on how they can accelerate things, and that opens up what we are doing in the background. “At the end of the day, rovers and robotic sy...
The US supreme court recently struck down Donald Trump’s tariffs, opening the door to up to $175bn in refunds for businesses that paid the import taxes.

The US supreme court recently struck down Donald Trump’s tariffs, opening the door to up to $175bn in refunds for businesses that paid the import taxes. However, the process for claiming that money is by no means certain. Trump himself said that the issue could be tied up in courts “for the next five years”. Across the country, small businesses have struggled to navigate the fallout from Trump’s global tariff wars. The Guardian asked small business owners in the US how their lives and livelihoods have been affected. Elizabeth Vitanza, who runs a lighting and home furnishings company in Los Angeles with her husband, John Ballon, said that all of the modern brands they work with have raised prices at least 12% over the past year. “None of this is pro-business or pro-American,” Vitanza said. When Trump won re-election in 2024, Vitanza and Ballon immediately put in a large order with one of their Swedish brand partners, “in the hopes that they could rush production” before tariffs kicked in, she said. They still got hit with a five-figure tariff on the order. Ballon said: “The money that we had set aside to renovate our showroom, to maybe increase people’s salaries – to do things that businesses do with money that they budget for – suddenly was now being cut into in substantial and unexpected ways.” “Why would anyone start a business right now?” Vitanza asked. “I wouldn’t if I didn’t have a firmly established one.” A furniture maker in Texas, who asked to remain anonymous, said that “the tariffs have raised the price of imported lumber – which can’t be grown domestically – and on cabinet hardware, which is not manufactured in the United States”. Due to the increase in material cost, he had no choice but to raise prices. Rob Coughlin, who manages a small Minnesota-based outdoor gear company, Granite Gear, said the company has faced near-daily uncertainty since 2025’s “liberation day”. Prior to the tariff implementation, the company paid a 18% duty fee, which then jumped ...

Apple Inc. is reportedly working on a new generation of iPhones powered by advanced artificial intelligence, according to recent technology industry reports. The development reflects a growing competition among major technology companies to integrate powerful AI tools directly into everyday devices. Industry analysts suggest that upcoming iPhone models could feature significantly enhanced AI capabilities designed to improve performance, personalization, and productivity. These tools may include smarter voice assistants, advanced photo and video processing, predictive user features, and real-time language translation. The move comes as artificial intelligence becomes a central focus across the global tech industry. Companies like Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI are rapidly expanding AI capabilities in their products and services. Smartphone manufacturers are now racing to bring similar technologies directly to mobile devices. Experts say AI integration could dramatically change how users interact with smartphones. Future iPhones may be able to automatically organize photos, suggest actions based on user behavior, improve battery efficiency, and generate content such as text summaries or smart replies. Another major focus is expected to be on-device AI processing. Instead of relying entirely on cloud servers, many AI tasks could be handled directly on the smartphone’s internal chips. This approach would improve privacy, increase speed, and reduce the need for constant internet connectivity. Apple has already invested heavily in custom silicon chips designed to support machine learning and AI functions. Analysts believe upcoming processors will include even more advanced neural engines capable of handling complex AI workloads. The potential AI-powered iPhone could represent one of the most significant shifts in smartphone technology in recent years. If these developments materialize, they may reshape how millions of people use their devices for communication, work, and e...
