EDB Highlights Postgres AI Growth in Regulated Enterprise Markets

EnterpriseDB (EDB) has reported advancements in the adoption of its EDB Postgres AI (EDB PG AI) platform, which integrates transactional, analytical, and AI workloads. While 95% of enterprises aspire to become their own AI and data platforms within three years, only 13% have achieved this. EDB PG AI supports existing systems and prepares enterprises for future AI capabilities. A case study highlights PAC 2000A Conad, which restructured its data infrastructure with EDB PG AI, serving over 1,600 stores and 7,000 devices. In Korea, over billion has been invested in the sovereign AI market, with organizations seeking hybrid and on-premises solutions despite challenges from fragmented data environments. Notable users of EDB PG AI include the Industrial Bank of Korea and Shinhan EZ Insurance. EDB PG AI is built on Postgres and allows enterprises to optimize data and AI capabilities with governance at the data layer.
Microsoft warns fake CAPTCHA is tricking Windows users into running malware

Microsoft warns fake CAPTCHA is tricking Windows users into running malware

Microsoft has identified a new malware campaign called TerminalFix that uses fake CAPTCHA prompts to trick Windows users into executing malicious commands. This campaign is a variation of ClickFix attacks and employs deceptive pages that impersonate reputable services like Cloudflare. Instead of traditional CAPTCHA challenges, users are instructed to open PowerShell or Command Prompt and paste in commands, allowing attackers to execute complex scripts more easily. TerminalFix initiates a multi-stage intrusion, granting attackers persistent proxy access to the infected machine, which can lead to further exploitation of the company's network. The campaign relies on social engineering tactics, requiring user compliance with counterfeit verification instructions. Microsoft has released mitigation guidance, recommending restrictions on PowerShell access, monitoring for DLL sideloading, blocking outdated Flash plugins, and enabling cloud-delivered protection in Microsoft Defender Antivirus. The campaign poses significant risks to enterprise networks, but individual users should also be cautious about executing commands requested by websites.
The AI memory crunch has reached the apps on your phone

The AI memory crunch has reached the apps on your phone

Google will implement new memory usage regulations for Android applications starting in February 2027, due to a global RAM shortage. Apps exceeding the set memory limits may be throttled, terminated, or face reduced visibility on the Play Store. The memory thresholds vary based on device specifications, with specific limits for foreground, background, and bitmap memory usage. Non-compliance will result in penalties affecting app distribution and visibility. The memory crisis is attributed to increased demand from the AI data center industry, leading to rising RAM costs. The new limits will first apply to Pixel devices with Android 17, and other manufacturers are expected to follow. Additionally, by April 2027, all apps on the Play Store must support zero-tap credential restoration for users transitioning to new devices.

Android’s new RAM rules come with a Play Store threat attached

Google will implement new regulations in February 2027 that impose per-app memory ceilings on the Play Store, requiring Android developers to optimize their apps for RAM usage. Apps exceeding these memory thresholds may be removed from the Play Store, leading to increased competition and enhanced user experience due to faster load times and improved performance.

Google gives Android developers until February to use less RAM

AI data centers are consuming memory chips faster than the semiconductor industry can adjust production, affecting the Android ecosystem. Google announced new memory reduction requirements for all applications on Google Play due to hardware supply constraints impacting device memory availability. Every Android application must comply with revised performance thresholds for dynamic memory usage and bitmap allocation, with developers exceeding limits receiving automated notifications. A Memory Limiter tool will be introduced to enforce compliance by restricting non-compliant applications' memory usage. Budget Android devices, particularly those with 4GB of RAM, are at greater risk of crashes without optimization from developers. This policy will impact millions of users in regions with affordable Android phones. Chip foundries like Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron are reallocating production capacity towards High Bandwidth Memory for AI training chips, leading to a tighter supply of conventional DRAM for consumer devices. Google has not specified numerical thresholds for compliance, and the consequences for non-compliance remain unclear, with only warnings mentioned. The Memory Limiter tools are expected to be rolled out before the end of 2026, with full enforcement starting in February 2027, and a second requirement, Zero Tap Sign-In, will be introduced in April 2027. Development teams should prepare for these changes in the latter half of 2026.
