  Satechi launches Aluminum USB Type-C Multimedia Adapter for Windows and Mac

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 7:26pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  If you own a laptop with USB-C ports, and you like to sometimes connect to a monitor when working, I highly recommend investing in a home docking station. This will allow you to easily connect multiple accessories to your computer with a single cable. This is especially beneficial if your laptop supports charging over USB-C. If you don’t do a lot of work with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, a pricey home dock might be overkill. Instead, an affordable portable multi-port adapter/dongle could be a better option. This can be an essential purchase if your laptop only has USB-C ports.… [Continue Reading]

  Huawei doesn't stand a chance in the US

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 7:02pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Here's the thing. As happy as smartphone makers are about selling a ton of devices across the globe, they would all like to make it big in the US. It's a huge market where lots of consumers buy premium handsets -- which offer the biggest margins. However, it's not easy to gain ground here. The US is unlike the vast majority of markets in the sense that iOS and Android share a similarly-sized slice of the pie. Making things even more difficult is the fact that Samsung pretty much wipes the floor with the competition in its corner of the… [Continue Reading]

  Legacy defenses can't keep pace with new cyber threats

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 5:03pm CET par Ian Barker

  Attacks such as ransomware are able to bypass legacy security solutions because organizations are neglecting to patch, update, or replace their current products according to a new report. The study from cyber security company Webroot also shows cryptojacking gaining ground, with over 5,000 websites being compromised with JavaScript cryptocurrency miner CoinHive to mine Monero since September 2017. Polymorphism, which involves creating slightly different variants of malicious or unwanted files, has become mainstream too according to the report. In 2017, 93 percent of the malware encountered and 95 percent of potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) were only seen on one machine. This… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 3:34pm CET par Ian Barker

  Cyber security is seen as one of the biggest threats to business. Yet employees are not being supported by their organizations when it comes to investing in their continued education and career development. Crowd sourced IT and security training solution Cybrary, along with cyber security research body the Cyentia Institute, have produced a report looking at the cyber skills gap. The study of over 3,000 IT, security and other non-technical professionals finds that two out of three organizations admit finding qualified cyber security professionals is a struggle. In addition 80 percent of respondents don't feel adequately prepared to defend their organizations,… [Continue Reading]

  Malicious mobile apps decrease in final quarter of 2017

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 1:47pm CET par Ian Barker

  A new report from digital threat management company RiskIQ states malicious mobile apps declined at the end of 2017. To reach these findings the firm analyzed 120 mobile app stores and it puts the decline down largely to a decrease in the inventory of AndroidAPKDescargar, the most prolific dealer of blacklisted apps. Feral apps -- those available for download outside of a store on the web -- fell in popularity for the first time in several quarters too, slipping from the number two spot and giving way to three other stores. The top stores hosting blacklisted apps are AndroidAPKDescargar with… [Continue Reading]

  Vivaldi collaborates with DuckDuckGo to improve browser privacy

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 12:13pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Vivaldi Technology has announced a new collaboration with the privacy-centric search engine DuckDuckGo. In coming together, DuckDuckGo will be made the default search engine in a Private Window. The aim is to further increase the privacy offered by the Vivaldi web browser, helping to ensure that searches that are conducted in a Private Window really are private. The company points out that even if you were previously using a Private Window for browsing and searching, the precise level of privacy you enjoyed is determined to a large degree by the search engine you choose to use. Combining Vivaldi's lack of… [Continue Reading]

  Mozilla pulls advertising from Facebook

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 11:48am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Mozilla is not happy with Facebook. Not happy at all. Having already started a petition to try to force the social network to do more about user privacy, the company has now decided to withdraw its advertising from the platform. The organization is voting with its money following the misuse of user data by Cambridge Analytica, as it tries to force Facebook into taking privacy more seriously.

  Mainframes become more important to enterprises but staff shortages pose problems

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 11:39am CET par Ian Barker

  The mainframe is becoming more important to large enterprises, with the percentage of organizations running at least half their business-critical applications on these platforms expected to increase next year. But the loss of skilled mainframe staff, and the failure to subsequently fill these positions, poses significant threats to application quality, velocity and efficiency. These findings come from a new report carried out for Compuware by Forrester which shows that 64 percent of enterprises surveyed will run more than half of their critical applications on the platform within the next year, up from 57 percent this year. In addition 72 percent… [Continue Reading]

  Facebook reveals the steps it will take to avoid the next big data breach

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 11:17am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  After it was revealed that private data belonging to 50 million Facebook users was shared with data analytics company Cambridge Analytica, there has been much talk about what went wrong and how something similar can be avoided in the future. Mark Zuckerberg issued a non-apology, but Facebook has also indicated some of the things it will be doing in the wake of the fiasco. Zuckerberg says that back in 2014, steps were taken to restrict the access apps have to data, and the social network also plans -- in the name of transparency -- to inform everyone who has been,… [Continue Reading]

  Mark Zuckerberg's failure to apologize about the Cambridge Analytica privacy breach is despicable

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 10:47am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  After five days of complete silence, Mark Zuckerberg finally decided to face the music and talk about the Cambridge Analytica debacle which has seen the private information of more than 50 million Facebook users harvested by the data analytics company Yesterday, the Facebook founder condescended to issue a statement about the privacy breach, and also appeared in a CNN interview. He was, of course, quick to point out that his company has already cleaned up its act and would be doing a lot more, including auditing apps and developers. So far, so face-saving. One thing he rather forgot about, however,… [Continue Reading]

  Mark Zuckerberg to publicly shame himself over Cambridge Analytica scandal on CNN tonight

  Publié: mars 22, 2018, 12:18am CET par Brian Fagioli

  Facebook is a pretty terrible experience. Yeah, as a social network, I guess it does its job of connecting friends, family, and colleagues, but its non-chronological interface makes it damn-near impossible to make sense of things. Not to mention, it is a privacy nightmare, expecting users to opt-out of data-slurping features using confusing settings. Don't even get me started on its spread of fake news. Ultimately, it is not user-friendly, and the company seems content with letting it remain that way. The Cambridge Analytica scandal merely highlights things "conspiracy theorists" have long screamed about -- with Facebook, you are the… [Continue Reading]
