  Microsoft releases Windows 10 Spring Creators Update Build 17133 to the Slow ring, but not for all

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 8:31pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Microsoft only released Windows 10 Spring Creators Update (Redstone 4) Build 17133 to the Fast ring a few days ago, but it’s already been cleared for the Slow ring. However, as part of some deployment testing, not everyone on the Slow ring will receive it immediately. You will be able to force the update if you want to though. SEE ALSO: Microsoft releases Windows 10 Redstone 5 Build 17634 for Skip Ahead Windows boss Terry Myerson leaves Microsoft as part of a major shakeup Microsoft releases Windows 10 Spring Creators Update Build 17133 to the Fast ring Microsoft admits Windows… [Continue Reading]

  Less than half of Android security apps offer effective protection

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 3:15pm CEST par Ian Barker

  A new study from independent testing lab AV-Comparatives reveals that of over 200 Android security apps tested the majority are dubious, unsafe or ineffective. The company downloaded 204 apps from the Google Play store in January this year and found 84 of the apps detected over 30 percent of malicious samples, and had zero false alarms. 79 detected under 30 percent of malware samples and/or had a high false alarm rate. The remaining 41 apps have since been removed from the store. These are described by the report as very buggy, unsafe and ineffective apps that appear to have been… [Continue Reading]

  What's the probability of a data breach happening to you? Or is that the wrong question?

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 3:13pm CEST par Andy Norton

  Correctly calculating the probability of risk is becoming critical to organizations. And it’s not just because it is essential and fundamental to good Risk Management practice, but also because new laws such as GDPR are mandating it. Security measures must be appropriate to the risk, and the risk is suffering a data breach. So, calculating the probability of a data breach happening, regardless of scope, is vital to determining appropriate security measures. ISACA, previously known as the Information Systems Audit and Control Association but now known solely by its acronym, talks about the probability of risk as: RISK = PROBABLITY… [Continue Reading]

  Best practices for effective Privileged Access Management

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 2:48pm CEST par Todd Peterson

  It feels like almost every week, we hear of a new breach, and each week, we’re thankful it wasn’t our company. But how long can we dodge the breach bullet? No one wants to be the next headline, but what can we do to ensure that we aren’t? The common denominator in virtually every breach is that somehow, someone who shouldn’t have access to your company’s system and data sources has found a way in. The bad guys are smart, creative and motivated, and can use even the smallest opening. So how do we defend ourselves against these relentless attacks?… [Continue Reading]

  Apple releases iOS 11.3 with a massive focus on privacy

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 2:00pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Ahead of GDPR in Europe, Apple has released iOS 11.3, complete with a selection of privacy-focused tools. But while privacy is at the heart of the release, it is far from being the end of the story. The recent Facebook scandal has focused attention on privacy, and this is something Apple will be more than happy to capitalize upon, bringing GDPR-prompted tools to the world -- not just Europe. But iOS 11.3 also includes an extensive changelog with a range of fixes and updates.

  Leaked Facebook memo: 'so what if the social network's growth leads to terrorism and death?'

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 1:09pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  A leaked memo written by Facebook's vice-president, Andrew Bosworth, entitled "The Ugly" gives a glimpse into the attitude the social network has towards its own growth. "Boz" Bosworth says the "ugly truth" of Facebook's growth is that connecting people could lead to deaths -- but so be it. In the memo, Bosworth says "anything that allows us to connect more people more often is *de facto* good". He goes on to say: "That's why all the work we do in growth is justified. All the questionable contact importing practices. All the subtle language that helps people stay searchable by friends.… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft releases update that fixes problematic Meltdown patch

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 12:07pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  As if the Meltdown and Spectre chip vulnerabilities weren't bad enough in their own right, the patches designed to fix them caused a further series of problems. A Swedish researcher recently discovered that Microsoft's Meltdown fixes lowered security in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, and now the company has issued a fix. As the new patch is being released outside of the usual schedule, it is indicative of the importance of the security update. KB4100480 is a kernel update for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 that addresses CVE-2018-1038 problems. See… [Continue Reading]

  Under Armour MyFitnessPal suffers data breach, becomes MyFitnessFoe

  Publié: mars 30, 2018, 1:22am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Geting in shape can be very hard. Not only do you need the means to get fit -- education on what to eat, for instance -- but you also need time. Sadly, so many people put in long hours at work -- sometimes toiling away at two or more jobs -- that finding time (and energy) to exercise can be a near-impossibility. Luckily, technology can help with these deficiencies, as software can educate, while hardware -- such as wearables -- can (potentially) motivate and track progress. While technology can be good, it can also be vulnerable, leading to stolen user… [Continue Reading]
