🚨 Warning: Microsoft Defender is wrongly flagging some DigiCert certificates as Trojan:Win32/Cerdigent.A!dha, triggering widespread false positives on Windows systems.
Admins report certificates being removed from the Windows trust store after recent Defender signature updates.
What’s happening:
🔴 Two DigiCert root certificates flagged as malware
🔴 Some systems remove certs from the AuthRoot trust store
🔴 Detection added in April 30th Defender signature updates
Microsoft has released fixes in Security Intelligence updates version 1.449.430.0.
The issue comes shortly after a DigiCert breach where attackers gained access to support systems and code-signing certificates.
If you're seeing Trojan:Win32/Cerdigent.A!dha alerts, update Defender signatures immediately.
You see a lot claims that Venezuela has nothing to do with drugs because most of the fentanyl comes from elsewhere. I want to address this:
First off, fentanyl isn't the only drug in the world and there is still fentanyl coming from Venezuela (or at least there was).
Second, cocaine, which is the main drug trafficked out of Venezuela, is a profit center for all of the Latin America cartels. If you cut out the money from cocaine (or even reduce it) you substantially weaken the cartels overall. Also, cocaine is bad too!
Third, yes, a lot of fentanyl is coming out of Mexico. That continues to be a focus of our policy in Mexico and is a reason why President Trump shut the border on day one.
Fourth, I see a lot of criticism about oil. About 20 years ago, Venezuela expropriated American oil property and until recently used that stolen property to get rich and fund their narcoterrorist activities. I understand the anxiety over the use of military force, but are we just supposed to allow a communist to steal our stuff in our hemisphere and do nothing? Great powers don't act like that.
The United States, thanks to President Trump's leadership, is a great power again. Everyone should take note.

And yes, you can walk into any church and just sit down. They will usually have “new here” or people to point you in the right direction.
Make sure they follow the Bible. Not a cult like JW or LDS.
