Kindly share this post

QNET proudly announces the launch of HomePure Rayn, the latest in its innovative home care range of products, that aims to transform the user’s daily shower routine.

HomePure Rayn is a unique showerhead that promises to turn daily showers into a rejuvenating spa-like experience while supporting healthy skin and hair.

This innovative product, developed by water purification experts in South Korea, features the Amezcua Resonance Technology (ART), which energizes water to improve hydration and bio-energetic properties. ART is a proprietary innovation by QNET designed to enhance the quality of water by improving its molecular structure.

This technology works by harmonizing the natural frequency of water through energy resonance, resulting in structured water that is more bioavailable and beneficial for the body.

The impact of this technology includes improved hydration, better taste, increased energy levels, and overall health benefits.

Additionally, the HomePure Rayn includes Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) filter capsules certified by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), guaranteeing excellent water filtration quality.

The soft yet strong water pressure created by 259 micro-holes has proven to be gentle on the skin, especially for children, the elderly, and pets.

Trevor Kuna, Chief Marketing Officer of QNET, expressed his enthusiasm: “The HomePure Rayn showerhead represents a significant advancement in personal wellness technology.

“By incorporating Amezcua Resonance Technology (ART), we have created a product that not only purifies but also revitalises water, offering a unique and refreshing shower experience.

“The ART plate in the shower head increases the biofield in water droplets, resulting in smoother water that benefits both skin and hair.

“The showerhead itself is designed for easy installation and maintenance. All you need to do is to twist off your existing showerhead from your shower- and twist on the new Rayn showerhead.”

Kuna also clarified that the HomePure Rayn was designed in such a way that it is easy for users to maintain. “There are two parts that users need to replace from time to time, and it can be done without external help.

“These would be the sediment filter located in the handle and the filter capsules located at the head cap; be it the Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) capsules or the Vitamin C capsule” stated Kuna.

Key Benefits of the HomePure Rayn include:

  • Deep Purifying Cleanse: The advanced filtration system removes sediments, rust, foreign matter, residual chlorine, and impurities, ensuring a thorough cleanse.
  • Spa-like Shower Experience: Choose from stress-free aromatherapy options like Bahama Blue, Black Cherry, or Lavender scented capsules
  • Nourishing for Skin & Hair: The showerhead offers head-to-toe moisturizing effects due to hydration that is properly absorbed by the skin’s cells using the Vitamin C and ACF Filter Capsules and stronger hair with reduced hair loss and effective scalp exfoliation.
  • Energised Innovation: The HomePure Rayn showerhead uses the exclusive ART Plate to infuse water with energy, reducing stress and boosting vitality, providing a natural energy boost in the morning, and stress- relieving experience at night.

Prof. Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, a professor at St. Petersburg’s National Research University of Information Technologies, Mechanics, and Optics in Russia, has conducted studies indicating that structured water can positively affect the body’s energy fields and contribute to overall well-being.

According to Dr. Korotkov, structured water offers improved moisturizing benefits and is easier for the body to absorb.

His findings support claims that Home Pure Rayn can transform regular water into a revitalizing and health-enhancing resource.

With its combination of advanced technology, user-friendly design, and health benefits, the HomePure Rayn showerhead is set to revolutionise personal wellness and hygiene.

HomePure Rayn is the latest addition to QNET’s home and living range called HomePure.

Existing products in this category include the HomePure Nova and Viva water filters and the HomePure Zayn air purifier.

EFCC Recovers Funds, Arrests Suspects in N1.3 Trillion CBEX Crypto Fraud

Published

Kindly share this post

Ola Olukoyede, Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has revealed that the agency has recovered some money from the digital investment platform Crypto Bridge Exchange trading platform that crashed last month leaving many investors weeping and counting their losses.

In an interview with TVC on Sunday, May 25, Olukoyede also disclosed that the EFCC has made arrests in connection with the CBEX fraud. He added that the EFCC has made significant progress in its investigation into the crypto scheme that scammed many Nigerians.

“We have gone far with CBEX. We have been able to recover a reasonable amount of money”he said

Olukoyede explained further that although the stolen money was in cryptocurrency, the EFCC has managed to trace and recover part of it. He however mentioned that converting the funds back to dollars in cash was not easy because it required going through similar crypto processes.

“Even though in the crypto wallet, the same way the money was taken from them. There is no way you will get them in dollars. There is no way you get the dollars in cash without necessarily going through the same process.”he said

The EFCC boss added that some suspects have already been arrested, noting that the agency is still pursuing others who are on the run.

“We have gone far. We have made a reasonable arrest. We are not going to give out much because we don’t want the process to be disrupted. We are still after quite a number of people we have declared wanted,” he said.

He, however, said the investigation has been challenging because the fraudsters used “non-custodial wallets,” which means there was no identity attached to the accounts, making it harder to trace the criminals.

“We are still investigating a lot of wallets and the wallets they created are called noncustodian wallets; in other words, no KYC. So, you can’t trace it to anybody.

So, from the noncustodial wallet, they moved it to some wallets in Europe, Eastern Europe, particularly Cambodia and from there, they dispersed the money. We have been able to block some of these wallets where money has not been dispersed.

That is to the extent that we have gone. I even learnt that there are still some of these perpetrators and Nigerians are still falling victim. I believe people should learn from this” he said.

In April, CBEX collapsed, leaving investors with reported losses of over N1.3 trillion.

The platform became inaccessible after users faced repeated withdrawal issues, which were soon followed by the sudden disappearance of their account balances.

The incident, however, triggered widespread reactions, especially on social media, where users have voiced their anger, concerns, and disappointment.

Despite this, CBEX resumed operations, announcing fresh withdrawal options in a move to restore investor confidence.

Toll Collection on Lagos-Calabar Highway Begins December

Senator David Umahi, the Minister of Works, has announced that a section of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will be tolled starting in December.

Umahi disclosed this during an interview for a forthcoming State House documentary marking the second anniversary of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

He said: “By December, we will toll Section 1 of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway. We project a 10-year return on investment.

“The road has solar-powered lighting and CCTV infrastructure, and offers carbon credit advantages.

“It is more than a road; it is an economic corridor and a catalyst for regional growth.”

According to the minister, 30 kilometres of Section 1 have already been completed, with an additional 10 kilometres in Section 2 nearing delivery. Both segments feature six-lane concrete-paved carriageways, designed to meet modern standards for safety and durability.

Umahi further revealed that construction had commenced on Sections 3 and 3B of the highway, spanning a total of 65 kilometres, covering 38 kilometres in Cross River State and 27 kilometres in Akwa Ibom.

He described the positive response from local communities as a clear indication of the project’s wide-reaching socioeconomic benefits.

“Just days ago, we flagged off Sections 3 and 3B—65 kilometres in total, covering 38 kilometres in Cross River State and 27 kilometres in Akwa Ibom. The host communities’ excitement speaks to these projects’ transformative impact,” he said.

Umahi also highlighted the administration’s renewed focus on the Sokoto-Badagry superhighway, which he noted was part of a broader vision dating back to colonial-era trade plans.

“The Trans-Saharan trade route dates back to colonial-era planning. President Tinubu is now bringing these long-abandoned visions to life,” the minister explained.

Kaspersky Uncovers Dero Crypto Miner Spreading via Exposed Container Environments

Published

on

Kindly share this post

Kaspersky Security Services experts have identified a sophisticated cyberattack campaign targeting containerized environments to deploy a miner for the Dero cryptocurrency.

The attackers abuse exposed Docker APIs — parts of Docker, an open-source container development platform. In 2025, there are a significant number of Docker API default ports that are insecurely published, accounting for almost 500 occurrences worldwide on average each month.

In the discovered campaign, cybercriminals inject two types of malwares into the compromised systems: one is the miner itself and the other is a propagation malware that can spread the campaign to other insecure container networks.

Kaspersky experts discovered this malicious campaign as part of a compromise assessment project. According to expert estimates, any organisation that operates containerized infrastructure — while exposing Docker APIs without robust security controls — can be a potential target. These may include technology companies, software development firms, hosting providers, cloud service providers and more enterprises.

According to Shodan, in 2025, there are 485 published Docker API default ports¹ worldwide each month on average. This figure illustrates the campaign’s potential attack surface by tallying the “entry points” — or insecurely exposed ports that attackers might target.

Once attackers identify an insecurely published Docker API, they either compromise existing containers or create new malicious ones based on a legitimate standard Ubuntu image. They then inject two malware types into the compromised containers: “nginx” and “cloud”.

The latter is a Dero cryptocurrency miner, while “nginx” is a malicious software that maintains persistence, ensures execution of the miner and scans for other exposed environments. This malware allows attackers to operate without traditional Command-and-Control (C2) servers; instead, each infected container independently scans the Internet and can spread the miner to new targets.

“The campaign has the potential for exponential growth of infections, with each compromised container acting as a new source of attack, if security measures are not immediately put in place in the potentially targeted networks,” explains Amged Wageh, an incident response and a compromise assessment expert at Kaspersky Security Services.

“Сontainers are foundational to software development, deployment, and scalability. Their widespread use across cloud-native environments, DevOps, and microservices architectures makes them an attractive target for cyber attackers. This growing reliance demands organisations adopt a 360-degree approach to security — combining robust security solutions with proactive threat hunting and regular compromise assessments”.

The attackers embedded the names “nginx” and “cloud” directly in the binary — an inflexible executable file composed of instructions and data for the processor, not for humans. This is a classic masquerading tactic that lets the payload pose as a legitimate tool, trying to deceive both analysts and automated defenses.
