  Cyber attacks cost the UK economy £1.9 billion

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 8:42pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  Eighteen percent of UK businesses have been the target of a cyber-attack in the last 12 months, according to a new report by Altodigital. These attacks cost the economy £1.9 billion. Back in 2013 33 percent of companies were hacked, so Altodigital sees the current figure of 18 percent as a "welcome improvement." Each individual attack cost more than £2,000 last year. These hacks equated to five to seven days of downtime for UK businesses, and 89 percent of staff was affected. Despite the evident progress, there are still a few things organizations are doing wrong. Forty-one percent don’t have… [Continue Reading]

  What can enterprise mobility experts learn from BI market?

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 6:58pm CET par Lance Walter

  I recently had the opportunity to meet with about 40 executives from a large international construction company. They operate in many different countries and you won’t be surprised to hear that they have a complex application environment. I’d ask someone a question like "How do you keep track of tools and supply inventories at various sites?" and invariably, the answer was a question: "In which country?", "For commercial or residential?" or "For corporate to track it or the site managers?" They made it clear that while they had a myriad of needs for mobility, there were process differences, regulations, and legacy… [Continue Reading]

  MWC 2017: Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is the best smartphone

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 6:39pm CET par Mark Wilson

  Samsung's Galaxy S7 edge is the best smartphone; at least that’s the view of judges announced at Mobile World Congress 2017. Samsung has already unveiled a couple of tablets to bolster its Galaxy range as well as teased the Galaxy S8 at MWC 2017, but with the stink of the Note7 fiasco still hanging heavy in the air, the company is clearly keen to shout positive news from the rooftops. The Best Smartphone label was slapped on the Galaxy S7 edge by GSMA, the trade body that represents mobile operators around the world. This might be the view of the… [Continue Reading]

  Add 256GB of iPhone storage with SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive or Connect Wireless Stick

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 6:25pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  In 2017, if you aren't leveraging cloud storage for your iPhone or iPad, you are doing something wrong. By uploading photos and other files to iCloud or Dropbox, for example, and then deleting them locally, you can increase the amount of available local storage. With that said, sometimes you do not want to use the cloud exclusively. If you need to expand the available local storage on your iPhone or iPad, there are many flash drives that connect either wirelessly or using a lightning connector. SanDisk has two such popular offerings -- the iXpand Flash Drive (which connects using lightning) and the Connect Wireless… [Continue Reading]

  Training speech recognition to understand dialects

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 6:22pm CET par Nils Lenke

  Dialects are an intrinsic part of who we are, and can represent home to many of us in a world becoming more global in nature. Many wonder though: how do we train speech recognition devices to understand such unique regional languages? So what is a dialect? It’s a tricky question to answer that can get you into all sorts of political trouble in some areas of the world! In the past, central authorities were often skeptical of communities that claimed to have their own (regional) language, preferring rather to speak of a mere "dialect." In the reverse, smaller countries with… [Continue Reading]

  SniffPass captures email and FTP passwords from network traffic

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 5:52pm CET par Mike Williams

  Saving email passwords in the client is quick, easy and convenient -- unless you need to recreate the account somewhere else and can’t remember the details. Most clients have specialist password recovery tools which can help. Mail PassView, for example, accesses a local Outlook installation to display its stored account details. But if nothing else works for you, NirSoft’s SniffPass can recover passwords for any program by capturing its network traffic: IMAP4, SMTP, FTP and HTTP (basic authentication) are supported. The program is compact, even by NirSoft standards (sub 50KB), and there’s no installation required -- unzip it and go.… [Continue Reading]

  Samsung's teaser video reveals little about the Galaxy S8

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 5:45pm CET par Mark Wilson

  Not content with showering us with tablets in the form of the Galaxy Book and the Galaxy Tab S3, Samsung also used yesterday's announcements at MWC 2017 to tease us about the keenly awaited Galaxy S8 smartphone. At the event in Barcelona we were treated to teaser video which questions whether we know what a smartphone looks like. While we don’t get to see the Galaxy S8 (or, indeed, the Galaxy S8+) in the video, we do learn that the phone will be unveiled on 29 March, and the stark graphics hint at elements of the design -- which we… [Continue Reading]

  Batch rename a folder of images with PhotoRenamer

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 5:10pm CET par Mike Williams

  PhotoRenamer is a free Windows tool which can rename photos from the usual DCS014752.jpg-type garbage to something more consistent and meaningful. The program opens with an Explorer-like tree view. Browse to the folder containing your images and thumbnails are displayed, eventually (it seems much slower than Explorer). Files are renamed by using a custom mask. This defaults to %Y-%m-%d %H-%M-%S, which effectively replaces the existing name with the image date and time, using dashes as a separator: "2017-2-23 16-23-06.jpg". The program comes with four similar masks, and you can edit these or create your own, optionally using EXIF or IPTC… [Continue Reading]

  Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is the first interesting Android tablet in ages

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 4:31pm CET par Mark Wilson

  At MWC 2017 we were treated to the arrival of the Samsung Galaxy Book, but this was not the only announcement from the company still waiting to launch the Galaxy S8. Continuing to add to its Galaxy range, Samsung also officially unveiled the Galaxy Tab S3 -- and it looks pretty special. As the 9.7-inch tablet comes equipped with an S Pen, it is somewhat reminiscent of a large Galaxy Note. The high-quality glass and metal build puts the tablet on a par with Apple's iPad, and audiophiles will be pleased to see the inclusion of quad-stereo speakers from AKG.… [Continue Reading]

  Telco data is an untapped source of customer information

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 4:11pm CET par Ian Barker

  Brands often turn to sources like Google and Facebook to find information about consumers, but a new report suggests that telecom carriers could be a valuable source of customer data. The study of over 300 brands in the US, UK and France by Ovum for mobile technology company Synchronoss Technologies finds that 67 percent of brands consider telecoms operators to be a better original source of data insights than Google, Apple and Samsung. Google (59 percent) and Facebook (52 percent) remain the dominant brand partners for data insights and digital advertising. 26 percent of brands say they do currently partner… [Continue Reading]

  Xperia XZ Premium is Sony's new flagship Android smartphone

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 3:37pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Sony today unveiled a new flagship Android smartphone that might just put the company back on consumers' radar. It's called the Xperia XZ Premium and it has all the right features that we expect high-end Android devices to offer in this first part of the year in terms of hardware and software. Sony has put some effort into making the Xperia XZ Premium stand out in today's high-end smartphone market. So it has a 4K display, the latest processor from Qualcomm, a camera that's ideal for slow-motion video, a premium water-resistant build, USB Type-C, lots of storage space, and a… [Continue Reading]

  Social media makes phishing attacks easy

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 2:27pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  People like getting friend requests on social media, and hackers are using that to launch successful phishing campaigns. This is according to a new report released by phishd by MMR InfoSecurity. After reviewing simulated attack campaigns targeting almost a million users, phishd by MMR InfoSecurity says that social media is the most effective lure to have victims clicking email links. Almost a quarter of users clicked a link to be taken to a fake login screen. Out of that number, more than half (54 percent) provided user credentials, and 80 percent downloaded a file. Financial lures, like the ones where… [Continue Reading]

  Wavosaur 1.3 released

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 1:38pm CET par Mike Williams

  Quirky audio editor Wavosaur (32-bit) has hit version 1.3 with some major additions and extensions. New Wavosaur Widgets are small dockable windows which display real-time scopes, stereo balance and other charts and measurements. The Widgets launch within the Wavosaur interface, but you can drag them onto your desktop for sort-of independent viewing. New display and analysis features include real-time FFT, RMS power measurements, Scope mode for the output signal and panning for stereo analysis. Smarter channel processing includes the ability to convert auxiliary left and auxiliary right channel (or whatever mix of channels you prefer) to mono. There are new… [Continue Reading]

  Parallels on Azure helps streamline remote desktop delivery for SMBs

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 11:40am CET par Ian Barker

  An increasingly mobile and flexible workforce means greater demand for virtual desktops that can be delivered to any device. But complex and expensive to achieve, putting it beyond the reach of smaller organizations. Cross platform solutions specialist Parallels is aiming to simplify things with the launch of its Parallels Remote Application Server on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. "Microsoft Azure brings even more cost savings and simplicity to our solution, enabling SMBs to install Parallels RAS and deploy virtual desktops and apps to any device around the world in record time, so IT admins and end users can experience the simplicity… [Continue Reading]

  How to block the installation of non-Windows Store apps in Windows 10

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 11:19am CET par Mark Wilson

  If you want to keep your computer secure and clutter-free, it's important to keep an eye on what gets installed. This is fairly easy if you're the only person to use your computer, but less so if you share it with kids or other members of your household. To make it easier to lock down Windows 10 Creators Update, you can block the installation of all software that doesn't come from the Windows Store. Why would you want to do this? Well, blocking non-Windows Store software means blocking traditional programs, and these are the ones that are more liable to… [Continue Reading]

  Getting clipboard text or images into a file normally requires some help from an application.You might launch Notepad, paste in some text, click File > Save As, browse to the folder you need and enter a file name. Pastextra is a tiny Explorer extension which enables pasting clipboard text or images directly to a file, no extra steps required. The program has no installer, but it’s easy to set up manually.

  Samsung partners with Microsoft to create the Windows 10-powered Galaxy Book

  Publié: février 27, 2017, 10:31am CET par Mark Wilson

  While attendees and fans of MWC 2017 were hoping for at least a little news about the Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung forwent phones completely and instead offered up a pair of tablets: the Galaxy Tab S3, and the Galaxy Book. The Galaxy Book is the fruit of an "expanded strategic partnership" between Samsung and Microsoft, and is described as a "premium 2-in-1 designed with the mobile enterprise customer in mind". Available in 10.6" and 12" models, there are natural comparisons to draw with both the Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book. Both models are powered by 7th Gen Intel Core… [Continue Reading]
