Raise Money is a Founder Investor Networking platform that connects founders with senior investors.

You can post your startup idea and receive feedback from investors and other entrepreneurs.
Investors can find you, the best startups, and the most promising projects on Raise Money.
It’s a place where you can learn about what makes an investor tick, their preferences for how they make investments, what their investment criteria are (e.g., stage of company), how much money they typically invest in a startup at any given time etc…
How Raise Money Makes It Easy To Connect With Other Investors.
Raise Money has a built-in matchmaking tool that connects founders with investors based on their interests.

The platform also uses a messaging tool to allow investors to communicate with founders, so they can easily discuss how they can work together. In addition, there’s also a deal database where investors can list their deals and connect with new opportunities that are relevant to them.

How Raise Money Helps Founders Learn What They Need To Know About Investors.
We’re here for you.

We help founders gain access to the right investors for their business. Investors are also able to connect with startups that meet their criteria, as well as find other like-minded investors who can be helpful partners in their portfolio.

You can list your preferred investment criteria and get matched with start-ups that match your interests. It’s easy to sort through lists of investors based on their preferences, or vice versa if you’re an investor looking for a certain type of startup. This way, everyone saves time and gets involved right away!

The Types Of Investors You Can Find On Raise Money.
Raise Money is the place where you can find investors who are looking for companies that are just like yours. These investors include:

Venture capital firms, which invest in later-stage companies with a business model, revenue and team that have passed the idea stage. They typically invest $1 million or more of equity into companies whose valuation is between $5 million and $15 million.
Angel investors, who provide seed funding to startups that are often at an earlier stage than VCs but still require significant amounts of money to get off the ground. The average angel round is around $250K-$2M, although some angels will make larger investments if they see great potential in your company or product.
Family offices (FOs), which are similar to VC firms except that FOs represent wealthy individuals or families rather than institutional investors like banks or pension funds. Many family offices have high values on their balance sheet because they use them as investment vehicles for both themselves and their children’s inheritance; these investments may generate income as well without being taxed at higher rates than other income sources would be taxed at because they’re considered “passive.” Family offices also tend toward smaller deals than VCs do—the average FO will usually invest between $200k-$300k per deal instead of millions—but there’s no formal cap on how much each FO can contribute toward one deal either way!
How To Get A Meeting With An Investor Through Raise Money.
Upload your pitch deck and video to Raise Money
Associate yourself and your business with the relevant investor(s) in your network who have already agreed to fund startups in your space
When you get a request for a meeting from an investor, follow up with them by phone or email (if they don’t respond within 5 days, reach out again)
What Investors Are Looking For When They Evaluate A Startup Pitch On Raise Money.
As a founder, you can pitch your startup idea to investors on Raise Money. Here are things that investors are looking for when evaluating your pitch:

A good business idea
A good team
A good market opportunity (is there enough money in this market?)
A solid business plan with a clear strategy and goals (how will you make money?)
A clear and concise pitch (don’t ramble on for 20 minutes) If you can answer all of these questions, then you are ready to pitch your startup idea on Raise Money.

What Types Of Deals Have Tended To Be Most Successful On Raise Money.
When a deal is posted on Raise Money, the founders have the option to include the number of follow-on investors they’ve received. These are referred to as “warm intros” and can range from one investor to over 15. We found that deals with four or more warm intros tend to receive funding more quickly than those without any at all. While this doesn’t mean that your deal will be successful just because you’ve got some warm intros, it does indicate that people in your network will be more likely to invest in you if they see other people investing too.

On average, we found that most deals on Raise Money receive between two and four warm intros before receiving funding or being withdrawn from consideration (meaning there were no further updates). However, there was one case where a founder received over 60 warm intros within 24 hours of posting their company profile! We also saw cases where companies had five or more funding offers within 24 hours but still chose not to proceed with any of them yet (in part because they didn’t want outside pressure).

Learn more about the options that could interest you and where to find those options in your area before going through the process of applying for funding.
This is important because you want to make sure you’re talking with investors who are looking for deals similar to yours, and that they understand what it takes to get a deal done.
If there aren’t enough deals in your local market, then it makes sense for you as an investor to look further away (you can still be a local investor if you have funds invested locally).
Conclusion
If you want to connect with investors, but don’t know where to start, we can help. We’ve developed a platform that makes it easy for founders to find and connect with the right investors for their startups. You can learn more about how it works by visiting our website at Raise Money.com or by contacting us directly via email or phone

NVIDIA resolves critical issues affecting Windows and Linux devices.

NVIDIA resolves critical issues affecting Windows and Linux devices.

NVIDIA has released security upgrades to fix ten more bugs impacting the NVIDIA Virtual GPU (vGPU) management software in addition to six security holes discovered in Windows and Linux GPU display drivers.

The flaws make Windows and Linux systems vulnerable to attacks that could cause a denial of service, privilege escalation, data manipulation, or information disclosure.

Because all of these security flaws need local user access, potential attackers must first get access to susceptible targets via a different attack method.

Patching of eleven high severity vulnerabilities
Attackers can simply escalate privileges to obtain permissions above those provided by the OS after successfully exploiting one of the vulnerabilities fixed today.

Denial-of-service attacks or gaining access to otherwise inaccessible information can also be used to temporarily disable workstations running vulnerable drivers or software.

With the exception of the security flaws identified as CVE-2021-1052, CVE-2021-1053, and CVE-2021-1056 affecting the Linux GPU Display Driver for Tesla GPUs, which will start receiving an updated driver version on January 18, 2021, NVIDIA has patched all impacted software products and platforms.

The flaws have CVSS V3 base ratings ranging from 5.3 to 8.4, and NVIDIA has classified 11 of them as high-risk.

The risk assessment “is based on an average of risk across a broad set of deployed systems and may not represent the true risk of your local installation,” according to NVIDIA’s security alert.

To accurately assess the risk these vulnerabilities represent to your particular system configuration, the business further suggests speaking with an IT or security specialist.

The January 2021 Security Bulletin is a complete list of security problems that NVIDIA patched this month.

Several driver updates are accessible from hardware vendors.
NVIDIA advises users to use the security updates offered on the NVIDIA Driver Downloads page to upgrade their GeForce, NVIDIA RTX, Quadro, NVS, and Tesla GPU display drivers, as well as Virtual GPU Manager and guest driver software.

According to the business, certain consumers who choose not to manually fix the weaknesses might also get security upgrades bundled with Windows GPU display driver 460.84, 457.49, and 452.66 versions from their computer hardware vendors.

Users of the NVIDIA vGPU enterprise software must sign into the NVIDIA Enterprise Application Hub in order to download updates from the NVIDIA Licensing Center.

Press Release

By plugging in a mouse, Razer Bug enables you to access Windows 10 administration.

Published

By plugging in a mouse, Razer Bug enables you to access Windows 10 administration.

By just putting in a Razer mouse or keyboard, a Razer Synapse zero-day vulnerability that has been publicly published on Twitter enables you to take control of Windows as an administrator.

A well-known maker of computer accessories, Razer is well recognised for their gaming keyboards and mice.

The Razer Synapse programme will immediately download and start installing on a computer when a Razer device is plugged into Windows 10 or Windows 11. Users can set up macros, map buttons, and modify their gear using the software Razer Synapse.

Over 100 million people use Razer Synapse, according to Razer, who claims that number.

The plug-and-play Razer Synapse installation contains a zero-day vulnerability that, when exploited, allows users to swiftly gain SYSTEM access on a Windows system. This vulnerability was found by security researcher jonhat.

The greatest user rights in Windows, known as SYSTEM privileges, provide users the ability to run any command on the operating system. Basically, if a user has Windows’ SYSTEM capabilities, they have total control over the system and are able to install anything they want, including malicious software.

Razer had yet to respond, so yesterday jonhat revealed the zero-day vulnerability on Twitter and provided a little video explaining how the flaw operates.

Using a mouse while plugged in to gain access to the SYSTEM
We chose to test the flaw as BleepingComputer has a Razer mouse handy. We can confirm that it took us roughly two minutes to get SYSTEM rights in Windows 10 after plugging in our mouse.

It should be emphasised that this is a local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerability, requiring physical access to a computer and a Razer device. To exploit the problem, all you need to do is purchase a $20 Razer mouse from Amazon and plug it into a Windows 10 computer.

On one of our Windows 10 machines, we set up a temporary ‘Test’ user with ordinary, non-administrator capabilities to test this flaw.

When we connected the Razer device to Windows 10, the operating system downloaded and set up both the driver and the Razer Synapse application automatically.

The Razer installation application got SYSTEM access as a result of the RazerInstaller.exe executable being started by a Windows process with SYSTEM privileges, as demonstrated below.

The setup procedure lets you choose the folder where the Razer Synapse software will be installed when you install it. Everything goes wrong when you have the choice of where to install your software.

The “Choose a Folder” window will show up when you move your folder. When you right-click the dialogue while holding down Shift, you will be given the option to “Open PowerShell window here,” which will launch a PowerShell prompt in the folder displayed in the dialogue.

This PowerShell prompt will inherit the same rights as the process that launched it because it was run with SYSTEM permissions.

As you can see in the screenshot below, after typing the “whoami” command at the PowerShell prompt, it became clear that the console has SYSTEM capabilities, enabling us to execute whatever command we like.

According to Will Dormann, a Vulnerability Analyst at the CERT/CC, other applications installed by the Windows plug-and-play mechanism is likely to include similar flaws.

Razer will address the flaw
Razer has contacted the security researcher to let them know that they will be delivering a remedy after this zero-day issue attracted significant notice on Twitter.

Despite the fact that the vulnerability was made public, Razer also informed the researcher that he would be getting a bug bounty payment.
