What is PHP and why did it spark a global cyber-security scramble?
What is PHP and why did it spark a global cyber-security scramble? For more than a decade, serious flaws had gone undetected in technology underpinning much of the internet. It took artificial intelligence (AI) to bring them to light and caused a global cyber-security alert. The vulnerabilities lie within a programming language called PHP, which has been used internationally since the 2000s to build websites. Governments and cyber-security agencies around the world scrambled to contain the fallout of this discovery on Wednesday, and have urged website operators to install a new emergency fix or consider taking their platforms offline.

If a device like your 4K Ring doorbell isn't detecting visitors in time, you can adjust its Motion Sensitivity and its detection range up to the maximum limit.

Ring says that moving trees, sunlight, reflections and shadows can lead to unwanted alerts, and that large vehicles can trigger a motion alert even beyond a standard range, as we established.
