  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 9:31pm CET par Wayne Williams

  New builds for the next big feature update of Windows 10 are coming thick and fast. Build 17112 was released last Friday, and today Build 17115 makes its way on to the Fast ring. Builds rolled out this close to official launch tend to just be about fixing bugs and adding polish, but 17115 actually makes a big change to the privacy screen settings layout. SEE ALSO: Surprise!

  Microsoft Surface Pro with LTE Advanced now available to consumers

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 6:51pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Laptops and detachable tablets have come a long way in recent years, becoming smaller, lighter and more energy-efficient with each new generation. But, even though they're more portable, they're not necessarily easy to use on the road as well. What I mean by that is that connectivity remains limited to Wi-Fi for the vast majority of devices that hit the market these days. If you don't have coverage, you have to set up a hotspot on your phone. And that's a shame. However, there are some notable exceptions, with the Surface Pro with LTE Advanced being one of the most… [Continue Reading]

  Video shows the speed difference a new battery makes to an iPhone 6s

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 5:58pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  It's not all that long since it came to light that Apple was purposefully reducing the speed of older iPhones in order to compensate for aging batteries. In the wake of the backlash that followed, the company announced a cheap battery replacement program, and also plans to introduce an update to iOS that allowed users to opt out of this performance reduction. But just how significant was the slowdown? One iPhone user has released a video showing the performance difference between an old iPhone 6s, and the same phone with a new battery. The results are noteworthy to say the… [Continue Reading]

  123 Reg backup cockup wipes out users' websites since August last year

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 5:05pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Web host 123 Reg has suffered something of an issue causing it to replace some users' websites with backups dating back to August 2017. Other website owners complained that their sites had been taken offline completely. For anyone who has not made their own backup of their website, it's not looking as though 123 Reg will be able to help. Changes made since August last year appear to have been lost forever. Unsurprisingly, customers are more than a little irked. 123 Reg has not given much information about what has happened, simply referring to a "hardware failure" that affected a… [Continue Reading]

  Ransomware gives way to miners as cyber criminals follow the money

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 4:25pm CET par Ian Barker

  Cyber criminals have started using sophisticated infection methods and techniques borrowed from targeted attacks in order to install mining software on attacked PCs within organizations says Kaspersky Lab. Some 2.7 million users have been attacked by malicious miners in 2017, according to Kaspersky's data. That's around 50 percent higher than in 2016 (1.87 million). But at the same time ransomware attacks have seen a decline. Spikes in cryptocurrency values have made these attacks lucrative. Users have been falling victim as a result of adware, cracked games and pirated software used by cyber criminals to secretly infect their PCs. Kaspersky reckons the… [Continue Reading]

  Reliable SMS interception leaves 2FA accounts open to attack

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 2:53pm CET par Ian Barker

  Text messages via SMS are often used as part of two-factor authentication strategies to protect login accounts. But a new and worrying study from Positive Technologies shows that real-world attempts to intercept SMS messages are 100 percent successful. The underlying technology behind mobile networks -- Signaling System No 7 (SS7) -- has had known flaws for some time. This latest report looks at major mobile operators in Europe and the Middle East and reveals that virtually every network examined allows eavesdropping on conversations and reading of incoming text messages. Fraud was found to be possible on 78 percent of networks,… [Continue Reading]

  Scrambling for cyber talent? Try bolstering from within

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 2:32pm CET par Philip Casesa

  Data breaches dominated headlines in 2017, with more than 1200 breaches affecting up to half of the US population. Almost every week brings a new unsettling headline. The current threat environment accelerates pressure on already overworked and understaffed security teams to shore up their organization’s defenses. There simply aren’t enough well-trained workers to cover the need. The Center for Cyber Safety and Education’s 2017 Global Information Workforce Study forecasted a 1.8 million cyber worker shortage by 2022. Solving it is one of the most important challenges our economy will face over the next 20 years. Worried organizations may be inclined to… [Continue Reading]

  Tesla hack demonstrates need to prioritize data security

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 12:39pm CET par Charles Goldberg

  The words "data security" made news once again last month when researchers revealed that Tesla’s AWS cloud systems were compromised for the purpose of cryptojacking. Cryptojacking, which is defined as the secret use of a computing device to mine cryptocurrency, has risen in popularity over the past few months. This is primarily due to 1) the surge in cryptocurrency value and 2) the discovery of clever mechanisms hackers can use to mine coins while going unnoticed. According to RedLock researchers, the hackers infiltrated Tesla’s Kubernetes console, which is an open-source platform used for managing containerized workloads and services. They were… [Continue Reading]

  Kali Linux for Windows 10 now available in Microsoft Store

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 3:03am CET par Brian Fagioli

  It still seems unreal, but yes, you can install Linux distributions from the Microsoft Store on Windows 10. This remains shocking for many people (including me), as Microsoft was a longtime enemy of both open source and Linux. Of course, that is no longer true, as the Windows-maker embraces both nowadays. Today, yet another Linux distribution comes to the Microsoft Store for Windows 10, joining such favorites as SUSE and Ubuntu. While not as popular as those two, Kali Linux is still an important distro, as it focuses on security and penetration testing. “As with other Linux distros, you can now… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft announces 'Inside Xbox' live video stream

  Publié: mars 6, 2018, 1:54am CET par Brian Fagioli

  Back in the day, Microsoft was definitely not an open company. Quite frankly, its guarded and secretive behavior tended to annoy many consumers. Its closed nature also lended to conspiracy theories -- some folks felt they couldn't trust the seemingly big and scary corporation. While those feelings still exist a bit (ahem, Windows 10 telemetry), it has largely changed under the leadership of Satya Nadella. The CEO has transformed the company into a much more transparent one. The Windows Insiders program, for instance, was born during his tenure. That program pulled back the curtain and let Windows users peek a… [Continue Reading]
