この日はセキュリティ脅威の話題が注目を集めました。Amazon Threat Intelligenceは、ロシア語話者の金銭目的の脅威アクターが複数の商用生成AIサービスを悪用し、55か国以上で600台を超えるFortiGateデバイスを大規模に侵害した事例を報告しました。商用AIサービスが高度でない攻撃者でも大規模なサイバー攻撃を可能にしている傾向を示すものです。このほか、Amazon RDS for OracleがOracle 2026年1月のリリースアップデート（RU）とSpatial Patch Bundleに対応し、セキュリティ更新の適用が推奨されました。またAmazon MSK ServerlessがAfrica（ケープタウン）、Asia Pacific（台北）、Canada West（カルガリー）の3リージョンに拡大しました。

Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle now supports the Oracle January 2026 Release Update (RU) for Oracle Database versions 19c and 21c, and the corresponding Spatial Patch Bundle for Oracle Database version 19c. We recommend upgrading to the January 2026 RU as it includes security updates for Oracle database products. The Spatial Patch Bundle update delivers important fixes for Oracle Spatial and Graph functionality to provide reliable and optimal performance for spatial operations.
You can apply the January 2026 RU from the Amazon RDS Management Console, or by using the AWS SDK or CLI. To automatically apply updates to your database instance during your maintenance window, enable Automatic Minor Version Upgrade. You can apply the Spatial Patch Bundle update for new database instances, or upgrade existing instances to engine version '19.0.0.0.ru-2026-01.spb-1.r1' by selecting the "Spatial Patch Bundle Engine Versions" checkbox in the AWS Console.
You can use AWS Organizations upgrade rollout policy to stagger automatic minor version upgrades for your Amazon RDS database instances such that automatic minor version upgrades are first applied to non-production environments, allowing you time to validate before the upgrades are applied to production environments. For additional details, refer to Amazon RDS for Oracle documentation on using AWS Organizations upgrade rollout policy for automatic minor version upgrades.
You can now connect your Apache Kafka applications to Amazon MSK Serverless in the Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Taipei), and Canada West (Calgary) AWS Regions.
Amazon MSK is a fully managed service that makes it easier for you to build and run applications that use Apache Kafka as a data store. Amazon MSK Serverless is a cluster type for Amazon MSK that allows you to run Apache Kafka without having to manage and scale cluster capacity. MSK Serverless automatically provisions and scales compute and storage resources, so you can use Apache Kafka on demand.
With these launches, Amazon MSK Serverless is now generally available in Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Taipei), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Canada (Central), Canada West (Calgary), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Stockholm), Europe (Paris), Europe (London), South America (Sao Paulo), US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), and US West (Oregon) AWS regions. To learn more and get started, see our developer guide.
Commercial AI services are enabling even unsophisticated threat actors to conduct cyberattacks at scale—a trend Amazon Threat Intelligence has been tracking closely. A recent investigation illustrates this shift: Amazon Threat Intelligence observed a Russian-speaking financially motivated threat actor leveraging multiple commercial generative AI services to compromise over 600 FortiGate devices across more than 55 countries […]
