  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 10:55pm CEST par Sead Fadilpašić

In a new report, Gartner says cloud-based security services will reach $5.9 billion this year, representing a 21 percent growth compared to the year before.

  Why and how tech companies can quickly and ably integrate freelancers into organizations of all sizes

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 8:52pm CEST par Peter Johnston

  Freelancers are, quite literally, taking over the world. A 2016 study titled "Freelancing in America: 2016" from the Freelancers Union found that the freelance workforce grew from 53 million workers in 2014 to 55 million in 2016, currently representing 35 percent of the U.S. workforce and $1 trillion of the U.S. economy. Working with freelancers can yield incredible benefits to technology companies that know how to use them. Freelancers are cost-effective and flexible, enabling companies the ability to stay lean and scale up and down as needed. Freelancers also mitigate the risks of growing too fast, fill talent gaps --… [Continue Reading]

  Galaxy S8 and S8+ owners can get early access to Samsung's voice assistant Bixby -- here's how

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 8:29pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Apple has Siri, Amazon has Alexa, Google has Google Assistant, and Microsoft has Cortana. Samsung doesn’t currently have a voice assistant, but one is on its way. Bixby is described as "an intelligent, personalized interface for using your smartphone" and Samsung is aiming to make it more advanced than the competition. It was expected that Bixby would be included on the Galaxy S8 and S8+ at launch, but unfortunately its arrival was delayed as it struggled to understand English. The wait is nearly over however, as from today users can sign up to be the first to try out Bixby… [Continue Reading]

  Before you buy Microsoft Surface Pro, check out the ASUS Transformer Pro T304 Windows 10 PC

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 8:20pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  The Surface Pro only just went on sale, but you might want to reconsider that purchase. Don't get me wrong, Microsoft's hybrid tablet looks great, but ASUS has a very similar new Windows 10 PC that might be better. Called "Transformer Pro T304," it features the ports that are missing from the Surface Pro, such as HDMI and USB-C -- no dongles needed. Don't worry, there is a USB Type-A port too. Not only does the Transformer Pro T304 have plenty of ports, but plenty of horsepower too. Regardless of configuration, you get a 7th-generation Core i7-7500U and 12.6-inch display with a 2160x1440 resolution.… [Continue Reading]

  Here's when you can buy Samsung's artsy 'The Frame' television

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 6:24pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  In many homes, a large television is the focal point of the living room. When people gather in that area, they tend to sit in chairs that face the TV. Times are changing, however, as people are spending more time watching videos on laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Maybe it is time to redefine the way we think of the television. Samsung has done exactly that, you see, with its all-new 4K televisions called "The Frame." Since they were unveiled earlier this year, some people have been clamoring to get one. It isn't hard to see why -- they are super-thin and… [Continue Reading]

  How to play Kodi streams in VLC Media Player

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 4:01pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Kodi does a great job of playing audio and video. However, if you prefer VLC Media Player, the good news is you can use that to watch all (or just some) of your Kodi content. The process of redirecting playback is very straightforward, and once set up you can choose which player to use on a per-case basis. This gives you the best of both worlds. You can use Kodi to choose what to play, and then benefit from all the features that VLC offers, including all of its effects and filters.

  Cut PNG and JPG file sizes with Black Bird Image Optimizer

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 2:52pm CEST par Mike Williams

  Black Bird Image Optimizer ($39.95) is a commercial tool which claims to "reduce the size of your photos several times without quality loss!" Lossless compression which reduces JPGs and PNGs to a fraction of their usual size? This sounded unlikely to us, and it didn’t take long to find out why. Scrolling down the page. we saw the program works in part via color quantization, which "reduces the number of colors in an image while maintaining its overall visual construction." The end results may look very similar, but this isn’t "lossless compression." The developer also states it uses "a completely… [Continue Reading]

  Here's why the Xbox One X is so damned expensive

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 1:47pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  When Microsoft revealed that Project Scorpio was the Xbox One X, there was immediate excitement about "the world's most powerful console". But while there is eager anticipation of true 4K gaming, and a wealth of titles to look forward to, there is something of a dark shadow hanging over the upcoming console: that price. At $499, the Xbox One X is (or will be) the most expensive gaming console on the market and there are understandable questions about why the price is so high. Vice President of Xbox and Windows Gaming VP, Mike Ybarra, has shed some light on the… [Continue Reading]

  One in three consumers has a separate email account for marketing messages

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 11:55am CEST par Ian Barker

  People are increasingly looking to separate marketing messages from their other emails by having them sent to a separate account. According to a new survey of consumer email habits from Yes Lifecycle Marketing, 36 percent have opened separate email accounts solely for brand communication. For millennials that number jumps to more than half (58 percent). While you might assume this would be bad news for marketers, the findings show that those with separate marketing accounts check in more frequently for promotions compared to consumers who only use one primary account. Which suggests that consumers want promotions but don't want to… [Continue Reading]

  WikiLeaks Vault 7: CherryBlossom files show CIA can hack D-Link, Belkin and Linksys routers into listening devices

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 10:43am CEST par Mark Wilson

  Wikileaks has released a batch of documents from the middle of 2012 revealing details of the CIA's CherryBlossom project. A joint venture with the Stanford Research Institute, the CherryBlossom files show how the agency can take remote control of routers and other networking devices from numerous manufacturers, transforming them into listening devices. CherryBlossom also enables the CIA to interfere with both incoming and outgoing traffic. Passwords present little obstacle in many cases and the fact that remote infection is possible makes the implant very simple to install. The documents reveal how the CIA can home in on a target using… [Continue Reading]

  Razer Blade Stealth Windows 10 gaming laptop gets refresh with larger 13.3-inch display

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 6:36am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Thunderbolt 3 is a total game-changer. With the appropriate hardware, you can add desktop-class graphics cards to a svelte laptop. Having the ability to game at home while retaining portability is a godsend. One of the best examples of this is the Razer Blade Stealth. It leverages Intel graphics when on the go, but by adding the optional Razer Core graphics card adapter, you can use a desktop GPU. In other words, it is only a gaming laptop when paired with an external GPU. The popular notebook has recently received a refresh, moving from a 12.5-inch screen to a more roomy 13.3-inch.

  Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID is designed for Windows Hello, coming soon

  Publié: juin 16, 2017, 4:56am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Earlier today, Microsoft quietly unveiled a cool new product. Called "Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID," it is designed for Windows Hello -- the biometic login feature found in Windows 10. It features Bluetooth 4.0/4.1 and a wireless range of up to 50 feet. The weird thing about the product is that it has what Microsoft calls a "hidden" fingerprint scanner. I call this odd because the scanner is literally in a key with a fingerprint label on it! In other words, it is hiding in plain sight. It seems Microsoft is proud that the reader itself is "hidden" underneath the… [Continue Reading]
