  VR will soon go mainstream on smartphones

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 9:51pm CEST par Jeff Rubenstein

  Soon every smartphone will be VR-enabled. This will open up the virtual floodgates, making video-based VR experiences more affordable and accessible. Immersive VR will go mainstream not on laptops, smart TVs or games consoles but on mobiles. Affordable headsets such as Samsung Gear VR and Google Daydream View are already gaining traction with early adopters for VR gaming and content streaming via apps such as Netflix VR and HBO Now VR. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. As well as media and entertainment, there is a huge market opportunity for organizations in other sectors to boost engagement… [Continue Reading]

  Over-reliance on one defensive layer leads to ransomware attacks: prepare early, check often

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 9:42pm CEST par David Gibson

  Since its first appearance more than 20 years ago, ransomware has become one of the most discussed cyber threats -- affecting companies of all sizes, across all industries. We cannot go a couple of days without seeing a new breach headline as a result of a ransomware attack (today's attack on healthcare is a prime example). The threat environment is becoming more dangerous because enterprises are not adequately prepared to protect, defend, respond or remediate. What’s the Current Vibe on Ransomware? From the creation of yet another version of Mirai to the rise of Locky and Cerber, the growing presence… [Continue Reading]

  Growth of BYOD proves it's no longer an optional strategy

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 9:12pm CEST par Anna Johansson

  If you study graphs related to the adoption rate of BYOD and BYOD spending, you’ll notice that it’s pretty steep. While growth may have been gradual from 2010 through 2014, adoption rates have skyrocketed over the last couple of years. Enterprises and small businesses alike are finally realizing that BYOD is no longer an optional strategy if they want to remain competitive. The Growth of BYOD According to recent research, the BYOD market is expected to be valued at more than $366.95 billion by as early as 2022. For perspective, the industry was valued at $30 billion in 2014 and… [Continue Reading]

  Enterprises that don't embrace automation will cease to exist

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 9:04pm CEST par Sead Fadilpašić

  Automate or perish. That is essentially what a new study by BMC Software, an IT solutions for the digital enterprise company, is saying. It polled IT decision makers for its new report and came to the conclusion that almost three quarters (73 percent) agree with the above-mentioned statement. ITDMs believe that those organizations which fail to adapt automation within the next five years will cease to exist in 10. More than nine in ten (92 percent) said that demands for new sources of revenue, unique competitive advantage, and operational excellence are creating "enormous pressure to compete digitally" to earn the… [Continue Reading]

  Why Access Rights Management should be an enterprise priority

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 7:08pm CEST par Simon Cuthbert

  In some ways, the new research claiming that people are still the biggest threat to cyber security is hardly surprising; this has been the case for years now. What is surprising is that even with the GDPR only one year away, this hasn't moved on. It seems that organizations are aware of the problem, which of course is a good thing, but isn't it time we began to see research saying that people aren't a threat anymore because organizations have secured their systems against these types of threats and educated their workforces in the process. That kind of research would… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 3:59pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  The MacBook Pro is a great laptop, but its lack of ports can be frustrating -- it only has Thunderbolt 3/USB-C. As the owner of Apple's latest computer, I have experienced situations where I didn't have a dongle and was left quite annoyed. Because of this, I have decided that I need some sort of dongle for these occasions. Today, Satechi announces its latest such dongle, and it looks great. The Aluminum Thunderbolt 3 Type-C Pro Hub Adapter for MacBook Pro (13- and 15-inch) is designed to be the perfect dongle -- the only one you'll need to buy. While it meets… [Continue Reading]

  US government is reviewing whether to use Kaspersky software, because Russia

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 3:43pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  Mention the US and Russia in the same sentence and the mind naturally wanders to three things. Firstly, the alleged links between the Trump administration and Russia, secondly whether or not the FBI investigation of these alleged links led to the dismissal of Comey, and thirdly whether or not Russia interfered with the US election. But now the US government is reviewing whether or not to continue to use Russian-made security software from Kasperksy. Defense Intelligence Agency director Vincent Stewart says "we are tracking Kaspersky and their software." He does not elaborate or give reasons, but there have been --… [Continue Reading]

  Samsung announces Z4 entry-level Tizen phone

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 2:36pm CEST par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Samsung's most popular smartphones may run Android, but the company also has handsets that run on other platforms. The new Z4 is a perfect example, being powered by the up and coming Tizen. Tizen is nowhere near as popular as Android is, but it is growing in popularity. In the smartwatch space it has edged Android Wear in terms of market share, which is a good sign for Samsung. But, getting back to the Z4, what does the new device have to offer? Being a Tizen device, what you can expect from the Z4 is a focus on entry-level features and benefits. So… [Continue Reading]

  Facebook cleans up News Feeds by reducing links to 'low quality', clickbait content

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 1:54pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  When it's not being accused of being used for propaganda or peddling fake news, Facebook is often criticized for being home to meaningless clickbait that exists only to generate ad revenue. As part of an on-going drive to make people's News Feeds more useful and pleasant to use, the social network is clamping down on what it refers to as "links to low-quality web page experiences." Facebook wants to cut back on content that is "misleading, sensational and spammy" and links to web pages that contain "little substantive content and that is covered in disruptive, shocking or malicious ads." Starting… [Continue Reading]

  Facebook shuts down abortion group's page for 'promotion or encouragement of drug use'

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 1:37pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  Just yesterday we wrote about the repeated closure of an atheist Facebook group by the social network. Now, in a similar act that has more than a slight whiff of censorship to it, Facebook has "unpublished" the page of Women On Web, a group that puts women who live in places that have abortion restrictions in contact with doctors. The doctors that women are connected with can provide them with abortion pills, and it seems that because of this the group, Women On Web, has been found by Facebook to be engaged in the "promotion or encouragement of drug use".… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft brings Fluent Design System to Windows 10 -- but WTF is it?

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 12:40pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  When Windows 10 arrived on the scene, much was made of the Metro (or Modern) look of the apps. This was Microsoft's design language of the time and now it's time to throw out the old and usher in the new. We've heard a bit about Project NEON in recent months, and this has now evolved in to the Fluent Design System. This is the new design language for Windows, and it will be making an appearance in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update -- although you can already see glimpses of it in the Redstone 3 builds if you are… [Continue Reading]

  Is multi-cloud architecture just a fad? [Q&A]

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 11:16am CEST par Ian Barker

  Enterprises often find themselves working with more than one cloud provider. This multi-cloud approach is a lot like hybrid cloud, yet many companies today may not consider this type of environment. If they have, they are more than likely wondering how to manage and govern the data held in separate clouds. They want to know how to find the best use of different architectures in a multi-cloud world. We spoke to Lief Morin, CEO of infrastructure solutions and managed services company Key Information Systems, to discuss what he's hearing from his clients on multi-cloud strategies and when organizations should skip this… [Continue Reading]

  Google will create custom emoji from your selfies in Allo

  Publié: mai 12, 2017, 10:45am CEST par Mark Wilson

  Users of Google Allo can now use selfies -- and a little AI jiggery-pokery -- to generate a custom set of emoji. Or, as Google puts it, users can now benefit from "Neural Network-Generated Illustrations in Allo." Working in a similar way to the existing Bitmoji idea, Google's nameless feature will transform a simple selfie into a customizable illustration -- emoji with greater character, more personality. In fact, the system doesn't just create a single emoji, it creates a full sticker pack. Announcing the new feature, Google says: "Today, Google is introducing a feature in Allo that uses a combination… [Continue Reading]

There are many regions across the world with little or no connectivity. In fact, according to recent… [Continue Reading]
