ESET Research has released its latest Threat Report summarising the threat trends observed in ESET telemetry and analysed by ESET threat detection and research experts in the second half of 2025. During regional briefings, ESET noted that socially engineered fraud remains a key risk in Kenya, particularly investment scams amplified through deepfake video and impersonation.  ESET researchers have tracked the continued evolution of HTML-based scam campaigns, including the Nomani investment scam, which grew by 62% year-on-year globally. These campaigns increasingly use high-quality deepfake videos, AI-generated phishing sites, and short-lived advertising campaigns to evade detection. As Allan Juma, Lead Cyber Security…

Last month a report uncovered an upcoming Spotify feature called Page Match, and today this has become official. It’s a very nifty one, letting you sync your progress across audiobooks, e-books, and physical books. Here’s how it works. If you want to sync where you are in a physical book or e-book to a Spotify audiobook, open the audiobook in Spotify, tap the Page Match button, press Scan to listen, and allow camera access. Then you simply “scan” the page you’re on in the physical book or e-book (basically you’re taking a photo of it). Then, Spotify will match the…

AI SceneI cannot believe we’re already talking about not one, but two potential foldable iPhones from Apple. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in the latest Power On newsletter, Apple is “exploring” a square, clamshell foldable iPhone. Think Apple’s version of the Galaxy Z Flip or Motorola Razr. It would be a follow‑up to Apple’s larger foldable phone (rumored to be released this year). This is far from a done deal (in fact, Gurman says there are no guarantees that it will reach market), but the rumor makes total sense if Apple thinks the foldable category could stick around for years.Rumor…

Honor is unveiling the Magic V6 foldable smartphone at MWC in Barcelona in a few weeks, and ahead of that, the device has seemingly now been certified for sale in China by 3C. This process reveals two model numbers: PNM-AN10 and PNM-AN20. The former is believed to be the regular model, while the latter will offer satellite connectivity. Most intriguingly, however, this certification also reveals that the Magic V6 will support 120W wired charging. That’s the fastest we’ve ever seen on a foldable smartphone, and should pair very well with the Magic V6’s battery capacity, which is 7,150 mAh. These…

New MIT Framework Uses Search to Handle LLM Errors in AI Agents When developers build AI agents that rely on large language models, they often face a tricky problem: The models can produce different outputs each time they are called, and some of those outputs are wrong. Recovering from those mistakes usually requires writing complex logic to retry steps or backtrack when something fails. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and startup Asari AI have introduced a software framework designed to simplify that process. The framework, called EnCompass, allows developers to add systematic…

Andrea Piacquadio, PexelsMy husband and I love traveling together. Our shared passion for exploring new places is one of the things that brought us together. Even now with jobs, kids, and busy schedules, we make time for a trip every year. That’s why we love finding thoughtful travel gifts for couples—gear and gadgets that make every trip easier, more fun, and a little more memorable.So if your idea of romance is more “backpacking through Italy” than a candlelit dinner, why not gift your partner something they can use during your next adventure? From gear that keeps you powered to accessories…

Yesterday, Google finally confirmed that the Pixel 10a is coming soon – on February 18, to be precise.
