  Using machine learning to secure identity and access management systems

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 8:20pm CET par Barry Scott

  We’ve been losing the war on cybercrime for some time. Research firm Forrester reports over a billion accounts stolen in 2016 alone, and these data breaches are going up, not down. We are having to wade through more incident data, and people cannot keep up. Could machine learning help solve the problem? For years, researchers hoped that artificial intelligence would produce human-like machines. Now, they focus on a subset of AI that can solve more realistic and useful challenges. Machine learning cannot do everything a human can, but it doesn’t have to. Instead, we can train it to be good… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft admits mistake, pulls problematic Windows 10 driver

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 7:54pm CET par Wayne Williams

  Microsoft pushed out a mysterious driver to Windows users on Wednesday that caused big problems for some. The driver, listed as "Microsoft -- WPD -- 2/22/2016 12:00:00 AM -- 5.2.5326.4762," wasn’t accompanied by any details, although we knew from the name that it related to Windows Portable Devices and affected users who had phones and tablets connected to the OS. While the driver was an optional update for Windows 7 and 8.1 users, it was installed automatically for those on Windows 10. Microsoft today admitted the problem with the driver, saying on the Answers Forum: An incorrect device driver was… [Continue Reading]

  Major League Soccer comes to Facebook Live

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 6:49pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  Soccer is a very popular sport globally, especially in places like Europe and South America. With that said, it is not a huge deal in the United States. True, there are fans of the sport in the USA, but its popularity comes nowhere near, say, baseball, basketball, or football. Unfortunately, this means that many televised matches do not reach all markets. Heck, some matches don't even get broadcast in the English language! If you are a fan of professional soccer in the USA, however, I have some very good news for you. Some Major League Soccer matches will soon be broadcast on… [Continue Reading]

  Ever Sentinel notifies you when companies change privacy policies or terms and conditions

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 6:01pm CET par Mark Wilson

  Changes to terms and conditions or privacy policies happen all the time, and this presents a few problems for consumers. As well as having to negotiate through the often impenetrable language used in these documents, it can be near impossible to work out what has changed, and what the implications are. This is where Ever Sentinel can help. The service monitors the terms and policies for a number of popular websites and services, and not only alerts you when they change, but highlights exactly what has changed. It's part of a drive to encourage greater transparency in terms and conditions… [Continue Reading]

  One in five websites uses insecure SHA-1 certificate

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 5:32pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  More than a fifth (21 percent) of all websites are still using an insecure certificate, which is leaving them open to different types of cyberattacks. This is according to a new report from cyber security experts Venafi. The report says many sites are still using the SHA-1 certificate, which means they’re vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks, brute force attacks and collision attacks, all of which can expose the site’s sensitive data. This means extra danger for people providing financial, or sensitive information to sites. Venafi says there has been improvement since November 2016, when more than a third (35 percent) of… [Continue Reading]

  Google beta testing placeholders on Google Drive

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 4:50pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Google has announced that it plans to introduce placeholders on Google Drive. The search giant is currently beta testing the new feature, which is officially called Drive File Stream, with the help of G Suite users as part of the Early Adopter Program. Drive File Stream enables users to access content stored in their Google Drive account without actually downloading it on their device. It works similarly to Dropbox Smart Sync or OneDrive placeholders on Windows 8. The way that cloud storage services normally work, if you want to view the contents of a folder on your device you have… [Continue Reading]

  1Password raises top bug bounty reward to $100,000

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 3:48pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  AgileBits, the company behind popular password manager 1Password, is raising the top bug bounty reward from $25,000 to $100,000, following the discovery of serious vulnerabilities in popular password managers, including its own service, that could have allowed attackers to gain access to user data. To receive the highest reward in its bug bounty program, AgileBits says that a researcher would have to access an unencrypted "bad poetry" flag that is stored in a 1Password vault. "Security is at the heart of what we do," says Jeff Shiner, AgileBits. "We owe it to our customers to do everything in our power to keep… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 3:48pm CET par Sead Fadilpašić

  Extreme Networks agreed to acquire Avaya’s networking business for roughly $100 million. Avaya, a company that went private in 2007, is struggling with bankruptcy. It filed to restructure under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in January. It also said it was looking for ways to monetize some of its assets. Extreme Networks said Avaya’s networking business is in line with its strategy for growth, and that it will help broaden its portfolio across different verticals. "Furthermore, we expect the Avaya business to generate over $200 million in annual revenue, increase our market share and offer new opportunities for our customers," says Extreme… [Continue Reading]

  iClever Tri-folding Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad IC-BK08 [Review]

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 12:30pm CET par Mark Wilson

  Around a year ago I took a look at the iClever Tri-folding Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard, having previously examined the iClever Portable Foldable Bluetooth Keyboard. The latest addition to the range follows in the footsteps of its predecessors, but this time boasts a trackpad. This is a Bluetooth keyboard that can be configured to connect to up to three devices -- phones, tablets, laptops, and so on. The keys are nearly full-sized (just 9 percent smaller than normal), and the right-hand side of the fold-out unit is occupied by a laptop-style trackpad that allows for easier control of the device you… [Continue Reading]

  Kaspersky brings you the smell of malware

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 12:02pm CET par Ian Barker

  When your job is writing about technology you get used to receiving the somewhat off the wall ways companies come up with to promote their products. Kaspersky's latest endeavour though had us scrambling for the calendar to check whether it was April 1st, as the company is launching a fragrance. Described as 'threatening yet provocative' the rather disturbingly named Threat de Toilette comes, like all the best scents, in pour femme and pour homme versions. "Fear awakens our senses," says David Emm, Kaspersky Lab's principal security researcher and face of the new scent. "The men and women who wear Threat… [Continue Reading]

  0patch pushes out another Windows patch, but will leave the real work to Microsoft

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 10:30am CET par Mark Wilson

  Last week 0patch produced what was described as the first 0-day patch for Windows in lieu of Microsoft's usual Patch Tuesday release. It came after Google revealed a pair of vulnerabilities affecting IE/Edge and Windows. Having addressed the problem in Windows, 0patch is at it again, this time patching the "type confusion" bug (CVE-2017-0037) that plagues Internet Explorer and Edge. This patch is described as an attempt to "release a simple temporary patch that blocks an attacker than try to create a perfect patch", and it's available for anyone who is willing to place their trust in third-party patching.

  Plex Cloud lets you access your media when your server is switched off

  Publié: mars 10, 2017, 10:03am CET par Mark Wilson

  Plex has introduced a new feature that makes it possible to store media files in the cloud. Plex Cloud has been in beta for some time, but it's now available to anyone with a Plex Pass subscription, and it works with Dropbox, Google Drive and OneDrive. The main benefit of this is that media collections can be accessed without the need to keep a Plex server running, but it also serves as an easier introduction to Plex for newcomers. The fact that no hardware needs to be configured is a real boon for anyone who has been put off the… [Continue Reading]
