Duration of Protection After Infant Hepatitis B Vaccination Series

Duration of protection among children and adolescents who have received the recombinant hepatitis B (HB) vaccination series is known to be long. Less is known about duration of protection of the vaccination series after being administered during infancy.

A robust response to a challenge dose of HB vaccine among adolescents indicates prolonged duration of protection against disease; the addition of a booster dose of HB vaccine to the routine immunization schedule for adolescents appears unnecessary. (Read the full article)

Mutations in ArgS arginine-tRNA synthetase confer additional antibiotic-tolerance protection to ESBL-producing Burkholderia thailandensis [Mechanisms of Resistance]

Highly conserved PenI-type class A β-lactamase in pathogenic members of Burkholderia can evolve to extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), which exhibits hydrolytic activity towards third-generation cephalosporins, while losing its activity towards the original penicillin substrates. We describe three single-amino-acid-substitution mutations in the ArgS arginine-tRNA synthetase that confer extra antibiotic tolerance protection to ESBL-producing Burkholderia thailandensis. This pathway can be exploited to evade antibiotic tolerance induction in developing therapeutic measures against Burkholderia species, targeting their essential aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases.

Conference On Anti-Counterfeiting and Brand Protection

Background:

Counterfeiting has emerged as one of the major problems globally. Counterfeit goods, including medicines, auto parts, electrical components, toys, food and beverages and many others, can be dangerous and can potentially harm or even kill consumers. The massive infiltration of counterfeit and pirated goods drains $1 trillion from the global economy and robs over 2.5 million jobs. The impact and consequences of counterfeiting are far-reaching. Not only does it infringe on intellectual property rights, the counterfeit goods also pose direct threat to consumer health and safety. That is why a countrywide cooperation as well as public and private sector collaboration to detect and decisively combat  counterfeiting activity has become the need of the hour. A truly integrated approach, involving key stakeholders such as global, national and local law enforcement bodies, NGOs, technology solution providers and corporations, can pave the way for the development and implementation of strategies to stop counterfeiting in its tracks.

Objective:

The objective of the conference is to bring together Government, industry and other stakeholders on common platform to discuss policy level issues and share the best practices and innovative ideas to curb the menace of counterfeiting, piracy and brand theft resulting in strengthening of IPR protection ecosystem in the country.

Windows UAC Protection Bypass (Via Slui File Handler Hijack)

This Metasploit module will bypass UAC on Windows 8-10 by hijacking a special key in the Registry under the Current User hive, and inserting a custom command that will get invoked when any binary (.exe) application is launched. But slui.exe is an auto-elevated binary that is vulnerable to file handler hijacking. When we run slui.exe with changed Registry key (HKCU:SoftwareClassesexefileshellopencommand), it will run our custom command as Admin instead of slui.exe. The module modifies the registry in order for this exploit to work. The modification is reverted once the exploitation attempt has finished. The module does not require the architecture of the payload to match the OS. If specifying EXE::Custom your DLL should call ExitProcess() after starting the payload in a different process.
