Microsoft adds support for Linux containers in WSL

Computerworld.com [Hacking News] - 2 Říjen, 2026 - 09:25

Thanks to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), which allows users to run Linux distributions in Windows, it is possible to switch seamlessly between Linux and Windows apps.

Microsoft has announced that it is adding support for Linux containers in WSL, a move that’s likely to be appreciated by many enterprise users.

To use this feature, run the command wsl –update; once the installation is complete, you’ll have access to the new command-line tool wslc.exe and the shortcut container.exe.

Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint integrations in WSL have also been extended to support container workflows, Microsoft said. New controls in Intune allow admins to enable or disable WSL containers and restrict image pulls to approved registries.

Using the WSL Containers API, Windows apps can also interact with Linux containers, reports Bleeping Computer.

Omnissa delivers a peek into the benefits of breaking through enterprise data silos

Computerworld.com [Hacking News] - 2 Říjen, 2026 - 03:34

When Omnissa this week rolled out a new AI governance authority product, Elara, in beta, it delivered a glimpse into the potential of having visibility between the typical enterprise’s data silos, whether they’re in lines of business, disparate geographies, or corporate operational units.

“By connecting signals across systems that often operate independently, Elara gives IT and security leaders greater context into how their digital work tools, including AI apps, models and agents, are being used across their environment, and the ability to apply policies and controls based on broader business context,” the vendor, formerly a unit of VMware, said in its announcement, noting that many existing tools are limited to authorizing actions within the systems they manage.

“Elara is designed to sit above these tools, connecting the systems that customers already run and giving organizations broader context without requiring them to standardize on a single technology stack,” it said. 

Brian Link, product CTO for Elara, offered a hypothetical example that illustrated the potential of cross-silo data sharing, which enterprise CIOs have seen as a data Holy Grail for decades.

If someone in cybersecurity needs to, for example, push an urgent OS update to global retail tablets to address a newly-discovered vulnerability, he said, Elara could consult multiple data sources across the organization to properly evaluate the risks and advise whether the update should happen at that time.

“Elara knows those stores are in an active change freeze (due to) inventory count, and that these are the same iPads running the inventory application,” Link said. “It pulls that freeze from ServiceNow, so the approver sees it before deciding. The decision stops being only a security call and becomes a business trade-off. Before anyone approves, Elara shows the blast radius: the devices, users, and services the change would touch, plus the events the approval would trigger. Only then does the human decide.”

Frank Dickson, principal analyst at Dickson Research, agreed with Link that cutting through the data visibility limits caused by enterprise silos has tremendous potential. But he also stressed the logistical challenges, given how tightly many enterprise LOB executives limit access to their unit’s information.

“A security patch colliding with an inventory freeze is not a technology problem. It is a business trade-off. The person approving the change should see both sides before deciding. The example is strong, and the [corporate] politics raised may be its Achilles’ heel,” Dickson said. “Omnissa’s natural territory is the endpoint, which is one silo, and the security, network, legal, and finance teams have no particular reason to treat it as the referee.”

But, he argued, this scenario can only occur if the information happens to appear in the very limited number of places where Omnissa can access data. It doesn’t break down those data silos as much as it enjoys tiny cracks of visibility between some of them.

“This is Omnissa’s scenario for a product that is still in beta. It is not a customer result. But Elara only knows about the freeze because someone recorded it in ServiceNow,” Dickson said. “The context is only as good as the systems it comes from; if the freeze lives in a regional manager’s inbox, Elara never sees it.”

But rollouts of products like this might get the data silo conversations renewed, which could be a good thing.

“An umpire is useless if the two teams never agreed on the strike zone,” Dickson said. “Elara can call balls and strikes all day, but someone above the CISO and the head of store operations has to define the zone first. That is why vendor clearance matters; every connector is a permission, and every permission is a negotiation with whoever owns that silo: the CISO, network operations, Legal, the CFO’s office or a regional business unit.”

He pointed out, “Elara does not just watch. It can block or limit actions, so the ask is bigger than read access. A single control point across every silo is also a single point of failure, the keys to the kingdom if you will.  A CISO would be right to scrutinize it hard.” And, he noted, CIOs cannot grant access to data that their teams don’t control.

Link acknowledged the challenge, and said that the critical enterprise element is somehow bringing in previously unavailable context, “but we are reliant on people [in IT] bringing those pieces of the puzzle to us.”

He said that his team is trying to address the question of ‘What do you do when that context no longer lives inside a person’s head?’ “Right now, I don’t see anyone else trying to do that.”

Star Catcher Is About to Beam Power Between Two Satellites for the First Time

Singularity HUB - 2 Říjen, 2026 - 01:19

Orbital data centers and factories will need a lot of energy. A Florida startup hopes to deliver it with lasers.

Ambitious plans for orbital data centers and factories face a major problem—getting enough power. A startup will soon test a new fix by transmitting power from one spacecraft to another using lasers.

Satellites typically rely on solar panels and batteries for power, but strict weight budgets restrict how much hardware they can bring with them. That’s becoming more of a problem as companies pursue power-hungry activities in space like AI and manufacturing.

Florida-based Star Catcher thinks the solution is to set up an “orbital power grid” using satellites to gather solar energy, convert it into laser light, and beam it to other spacecraft. Earlier today, the company launched a prototype designed to test the idea by transmitting power to another free-flying spacecraft for the first time.

“Every major application driving the space economy—from real-time national security intelligence to AI-powered orbital computing and Earth observation—is limited by power,” Andrew Rush, Star Catcher’s cofounder and CEO, said in a press release. “

“We are closer to activating an orbital power grid than most can imagine; flying this prototype in only two years is meaningful evidence of the capability of our team and what’s to come.”

The company’s satellites, which it calls “power nodes,” are designed to concentrate diffuse sunlight with an array of lenses and convert it into laser beams that can be pointed at other spacecraft.

The light is also transformed into wavelengths that maximize transmission efficiency and can be easily turned into power by solar panels already commonly used on satellites. The company claims this will allow satellites to generate up to 10 times more power than when using standard sunlight, no modifications or upgrades needed.

As well as keeping older spacecraft, whose panels and batteries have degraded, operational longer, the technology could also allow manufacturers to fit smaller batteries and solar panels on new satellites, leaving more space for other hardware.

That’s the idea at least. The company has already tested key parts of its technology stack, including beaming a record-breaking 1.1 kilowatts to solar panels at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in 2025, followed by a space-based test of its satellite tracking software later the same year.

But the satellite launched today, called Protostar, will be the first time Star Catcher tests the whole system in space, from collecting solar energy to locating and tracking a target and transmitting power to it. The spacecraft will attempt to beam power to a cubesat that launched on the same mission.

“Part of this demonstration is testing how much power is received by the cubesat as it moves away from Protostar and comparing that against our models,” Rush told Wired.

Star Catcher still has a long way to go though. The record-breaking power delivery it managed on the ground is still far below the amount needed to power a large commercial satellite. And significant challenges remain when it comes to tracking targets precisely, managing heat, and building equipment that can survive for years in space, Hanieh Fattahi, a Max Planck Institute researcher, told Wired.

The company is already working on a follow-up satellite, which it says is designed to beam “operational levels of power” to other spacecraft. And there appears to be plenty of commercial interest—Star Catcher says it has signed 10 power purchase agreements with companies alongside more than 40 letters of intent.

All eyes will be on Protostar to see if it can live up to the company’s expectations. If it succeeds, it will show that a satellite’s power supply doesn’t have to be fixed at launch, opening up a host of new possibilities for space-based industries.
