[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 1066536, member: 61091"] a curious overnight mutual event coincidence or attempted attack :unsure: My mac_mini is mostly used to display security cameras, while my win10 is my primary pc and also runs VMware. First thing I noticed this morning, Edge was left open overnight with 3 tabs weather related, but a new tab was open to a Bing search regarding Toucans. I rarely use Bing and have never searched for Toucans. win10 OS was not rebooted, and nothing to indicate that Edge updated overnight as when it does it usually opens with a screen about new Edge stuff... The running VM seemed undisturbed and was online via vpn. I then noticed that my mini was not displaying cameras, and was on a macOS login screen. When I logged in I saw mac popup: "Your computer was restarted because of a problem" The only obvious point of connection is both pc go online thru the same Ubiquity router. Any reason for concern requiring eg a deep analysis of macOS report related to mini reboot? Or just a coincidence. :unsure: Posted here because it seems too lame to be a security forum question.
