By Michael RedlichDan Fineran explores how eBPF has evolved far beyond its roots in packet filtering into a robust, safe way to extend the Linux kernel. He explains how the eBPF "verifier", the security guardrail, enables implementation of deep observability and networking without the risks of traditional kernel modules or the slow upstreaming process.

In this article, the author explores data poisoning as a threat to machine learning systems, covering techniques such as label flipping, backdoors, clean-label poisoning, and gradient manipulation. The article reviews real-world incidents, discusses the challenges of detecting poisoned data, and presents practical defenses, tools, and operational practices for securing ML training pipelines.

AWS made Graviton5-powered EC2 M9g and M9gd instances generally available with 192 ARM cores, formally verified VM isolation via the Nitro Isolation Engine, and DDR5-8800 memory. ClickHouse reported 36% better performance with zero code changes. Meta committed tens of millions of cores. On-demand pricing is 9% above Graviton4, translating to roughly 15% better price-performance.
