IBM: Patch these critical Java, OpenJ9 Java bugs in Watson, analytics products
Summary
Other products affected by the trio of bugs include IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7 Service Refresh 10 Fix Pack 35 and earlier releases, and IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 8 Service Refresh 5 Fix Pack 27 and earlier releases. IBM is increasingly plugging into multiple cloud environments--public, hybrid and private--and now aiming to expand the reach of Watson. IBM hopes to bring AI, data, and cybersecurity vendors together to tackle ongoing and new threats through the launch of a new open platform. As attack methodologies advance, tool-assisted detection is indispensable for security professionals to manage sprawling networks of devices that are not necessarily trustworthy. IBM is partnering with Garmin Health, Mitsufuji, and SmartCone on wearables for workers, but other safety measures should not be forgone with the rise of these technologies.
