  Microsoft's Bing says Denny Hamlin will win Daytona 500 -- do you agree, Nascar fans?

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 9:00pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  This weekend is the Daytona 500. I won't be watching. While I absolutely love cars, Nascar has never been my thing. Race cars going in a circle? Meh. Daytona USA for Sega Saturn is one of my favorite games of all time, however, but I digress. Even though Nascar isn't for everyone, it is still very popular with many. Not only do people like to watch the event as spectators, but some folks like to gamble on it too. If you are planning to put some money on the race, Microsoft may have some useful information for you. The company's Bing… [Continue Reading]

  Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15042 for PC and Build 15043 for Mobile arrive on the Fast ring

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 7:50pm CET par Wayne Williams

  Like buses, you wait over a week for a new Windows 10 Insider Build… and then two come along at once. In this case, there are two distinct builds -- Build 15042 for PC, and Build 15043 for Mobile. We’re edging ever close to the release of the Creators Update, and so while a lot of the changes in these releases are about squashing bugs and fixing issues, Microsoft has still managed to introduce some new features. SEE ALSO: First Windows 10 Redstone 3 build sighted For Windows 10 Insiders on PC, there’s a new Cortana animation in the 'out-of-box… [Continue Reading]

  Most executives fear competition from disruptors

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 7:15pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  Almost two thirds (65 percent) of C-suite executives believe four in ten (40 percent) of today’s Fortune 500 companies won’t exist in 10 years’ time. This is according to new research from ChristianSteven Software, conducted by GITNS. It is based on a poll of more than 500 C-suite executives across the United States and Europe. It also says that more than half (53 percent) of those surveyed say they fear competition from industry disruptors. Still, nine in ten (91 percent) say they are hopeful about the future of technology in their business. "Our study allowed us to take a close look at the business… [Continue Reading]

  Employees who embrace BYOD feel judged

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 6:27pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  There is a strange side-effect to the Bring Your Own Device initiative, and one that's slowing it down. Apparently, many employees refrain from bringing their own devices to work for the fear of being judged. No, not because their devices are old or slow, but because others will think they're using them for personal instead of professional reasons. Yes, that's a real fear, and it's quite prevalent. According to Nudge Rewards just 40 percent of employees feel trust is not an issue when using BYOD. Just a quarter (23 percent) say they are actively encouraged to use mobile devices in the workplace. A third… [Continue Reading]

  Cloudbleed: Cloudflare leaks sensitive data, many major websites affected

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 5:33pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Security researchers from Google's Project Zero have uncovered a critical bug in Cloudflare which allowed sensitive data -- like passwords, cookies and encryption keys -- from many hosted websites to leak online. Patreon, Y Combinator, Medium, 4chan, Yelp, OKCupid, Zendesk, Uber and 23and Me are among the most-important affected websites. This security issue is so important that it is now being referred to as cloudbleed. The bug, which was discovered on February 17 according to Project Zero's Tavis Ormandy and is now fixed, has caused the most damage between February 13 and February 18, according to Cloudflare, when about one in every 3,300,000 HTTP requests caused data to leak.… [Continue Reading]

  If you own a Samsung Galaxy smartphone, and run Windows 10, we’ve got some good news for you. From April, which is when it’s anticipated that Microsoft will be rolling out the Windows 10 Creators Update, you’ll be able to unlock any Windows 10 device by using your phone… and that’s not all.

  Samsung Secure Folder for Android safeguards your private data

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 3:48pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  If you want to secure your Galaxy smartphone, the first thing that you should do is set up a screen lock. But what if you want to go a bit further, and protect specific things on the device? Well, Samsung just released Secure Folder, which gives you a "private, encrypted space" to store sensitive data in. Secure Folder is derived from Knox, the company's secure platform for business users, and can be seen as a consumer-focused iteration. It acts as a sandbox for apps and data and works with existing authentication options to keep them safe. "Users may leverage this… [Continue Reading]

  Dropbox releases open-source Slack bot

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 2:29pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  Dropbox is looking to tackle unauthorized access and other security incidents in the workplace with a chatbot. Called Securitybot, it that can automatically grab alerts from security monitoring tools and verify incidents with other employers. The company says that through the use of the chatbot, which is open source, it will no longer be necessary to manually reach out to employees to verify access, every time someone enters a sensitive part of the system. The bot is built primarily for Slack, but it is designed to be transferable to other platforms as well. It works quite simple, too. As soon… [Continue Reading]

  New DDoS capabilities uncovered in Necurs botnet

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 12:35pm CET par Ian Barker

  The Necurs botnet is one of the largest around at the moment and is principally known for sending spam including the Locky ransomware. However, new research from BitSight's Anubis Labs has uncovered a new component being loaded in infected systems that allows it to use bots to enable proxy communications and perform DDoS attacks. The module has a compilation date in August 2016, although there's no evidence that these new capabilities have yet been used in anger. A botnet the size of Necurs, if used for DDoS attacks, is likely to cause severe disruption wherever it hits, being very capable of… [Continue Reading]

  Google renames Messenger to Android Messages as the company pushes RCS

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 11:43am CET par Mark Wilson

  Just last week we were talking about Google's championing of RCS (Rich Communication Services), the successor to SMS. Now the company has renamed its Messenger app to Android Messages as it aims to become not just the default SMS app, but the default RCS app for Android users. The name change also helps to better differentiate the app from others that had the same name -- such as Facebook Messenger, which is shortened to just Messenger on shortcuts. At the same time, the change is likely to cause a degree of confusion thanks to the sheer number of messaging apps… [Continue Reading]

  Public cloud services market will reach $246.8 billion in 2017

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 11:38am CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  The global public cloud services market is expected to grow 18 percent this year, according to Gartner’s latest report. Totaling $246.8 billion (up from $209.2bn last year), the growth will mostly come from IaaS, which is expected to grow 36.8 percent and reach $34.6 billion. The growth will also be fueled by SaaS (20.1 percent increase, to $46.3 billion). "The overall global public cloud market is entering a period of stabilization, with its growth rate peaking at 18 percent in 2017 and then tapering off over the next few years," says Sid Nag, research director at Gartner.

  Ubuntu Core Linux comes to i.MX6-powered IoT-friendly TS-4900 Computer On Module

  Publié: février 24, 2017, 2:34am CET par Brian Fagioli

  One of the best things about the Linux kernel (and associated operating systems) is the ability to work on various hardware types, including ARM. Microsoft's operating systems, by comparison, are far more narrow. True, there is the lightweight Windows 10 IoT for ARM boards, but it is hardly a factor nowadays. Today, Ubuntu Core comes to the i.MX6-based and ARM-powered TS-4900 Computer on Module. While Android and other Linux options were already available for the IoT-friendly CoM, Ubuntu Core is still a major win. Canonical's revolutionary snap packages should work beautifully here. "The TS-4900 is available in either single or quad core configurations… [Continue Reading]
