  Wow! Microsoft releases action-packed Windows 10 Redstone 5 build with dark theme for File Explorer, acrylic in Sets, Cloud Clipboard, and more

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 8:59pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  With Redstone 4 builds of Windows 10, the new features and changes came to users quite gradually. That’s certainly not the case with Redstone 5 releases. The latest build rolling out to Insiders on the Fast ring and Skip Ahead today is the perfect case in point. Build 17666 (it's a beast of a build, so the number is apt) is chock full of exciting new features that you really won’t want to wait to get your hands on, including Cloud Clipboard, a dark theme for File Explorer, major improvements to Sets, the ability to search Bing in Notepad and… [Continue Reading]

  System76 Oryx Pro Linux laptop is now thinner and faster, putting Apple MacBook Pro to shame

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 8:48pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Last week, System76 started to share details about its refreshed Linux-powered Oryx Pro laptop. It would be thinner and more powerful, while adding twice the battery life of its predecessor. Unfortunately, we did not yet know exactly what the laptop looked like. Today, we finally have official images. This new Oryx Pro is quite breathtaking, as it is a true Pro machine -- with the USB Type-A, Ethernet, and HDMI ports you expect -- while being just 19mm thin. It has the horsepower that power-users need, thanks to its 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 10-Series GPU. Hey,… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 6:13pm CEST par Nick Peers

  Mozilla has released Firefox Quantum 60.0 for desktop, along with Firefox for Android 60.0 and Firefox ESR 60.0. The new version adds an Enterprise-friendly policy engine for customizing Firefox deployments. Elsewhere there are several improvements to the New Tab/Firefox Home page and enhanced camera privacy indicators. The Firefox Home page that appears with new tabs has been tweaked, with a new responsive layout that displays more content on wider displays. Additional options have also been added for managing content and sections on the page. Elsewhere, the Highlights section now includes content saved to Pocket, although on the downside sponsored Pocket… [Continue Reading]

  Iran could launch cyber attacks in response to renewed sanctions

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 6:06pm CEST par Ian Barker

  President Trump's re-imposition of sanctions against Iran could lead the country to respond by launching cyber attacks on Western businesses within months, according to a new report. Threat intelligence company Recorded Future has today released new research and analysis into the Iranian cyber threat. Since at least 2009, Iran has regularly responded to sanctions or perceived provocations by conducting offensive cyber campaigns say the report's authors. "The Islamic Republic has historically preferred to use proxies or front organizations both in physical conflict -- Hezbollah against Israel and Yemen rebels against Saudi Arabia -- and cyberattacks to achieve its policy goals."… [Continue Reading]

  Apple clamps down on apps that share location data with third parties

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 5:42pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Apple appears to be more vigorously enforcing App Store policies relating to the sharing of location data. Over the last few days the company has been removing apps that share location details with third parties without consent. Developers of apps found to be exploiting user privacy in this way have received emails from Apple. These indicate that apps have undergone "re-evaluation" and found to be in violation of sections 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 of the App Store Review Guidelines.

  Walmart buys a controlling share in India's Flipkart

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 4:54pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Rumors have circulated for a number of weeks, but now it's official: Walmart has just said it will spend $16 billion buying a controlling sharing in Flipkart, the Indian ecommerce site. The American retail giant fought off a last-minute bid from Amazon. The deal values Flipkart at $20.8 billion, and will see Walmart taking an initial stake of 77 percent of the company. The remainder of Flipkart ownership is shared between Tencent, Tiger Global and Microsoft, as well as its co-founder Binny Bansal.

  Most companies not putting adequate investment into application security

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 12:32pm CEST par Ian Barker

  According to a new survey from Arxan, only 25 percent of respondents say their organization is making a significant investment in solutions to prevent application attacks. This is despite awareness of the negative impact of malicious activity. A worrying 65 percent of companies say they would be spurred to increase application protection measures only after an end user or customer was negatively affected. "It's disturbing that so many companies acknowledge the increasing risk of application attacks, yet they are doing very little to prevent breaches from occurring," says Joe Sander, CEO of Arxan. "It's backward thinking, and it puts customers… [Continue Reading]

  Google launches Android Jetpack to speed up app development

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 11:02am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Google has a new tool designed to help developers produce Android apps faster than ever. Called Android Jetpack, it builds on the Support Library and has a strong focus on backwards compatibility. Android Jetpack also builds on Architecture Components, giving developers access to components, tools and architectural guidance split into four categories -- architecture, foundation, UI and behavior. Each component is provided as an "unbundled" library which Google says means you can "adopt each component at your own speed, at your own time".

  Microsoft to let Windows 10 users Alt-Tab between both apps and browser tabs

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 10:05am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  For many people, keyboard shortcuts are essential to using a computer, and over time they become hardwired into muscle memory. You've probably become used to the way Alt-Tab can be used to switch between running apps, but Microsoft plans to change the way this particular shortcut works. At Build, the company revealed that the next Insider build of Windows 10 will not only let you Alt-Tab between running programs, but also browser tabs. It's something that's being introduced as part of Sets, and it's likely to divide opinion. See also: Microsoft announces Your Phone, an app to view your iPhone… [Continue Reading]

  Notepad on Microsoft Windows 10 gets Linux and Mac line endings support

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 2:05am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Notepad is a classic piece of software. It is the unsung hero of every Windows installation. If you want to jot down a quick note, it is a blank canvas awaiting your keystrokes. As a young man, I used Notepad to write my school papers. Microsoft Office was reserved for rich folks, and there was no LibreOffice -- or even Open Office -- yet. Even the no-frills Microsoft Works was priced out of my family's reach, but I digress. As Microsoft turns its attention away from the wonderful Paint to focus on the terrible Photos and Paint 3D, you'd expect… [Continue Reading]

  Google's Chrome OS getting support for traditional Linux apps, but don't get excited just yet

  Publié: mai 9, 2018, 1:10am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Google is a big supporter and user of Linux. Android, for instance, is the most popular Linux-based distribution in the world. Mobile aside, the search giant also leverages the open source kernel for its desktop operating system -- Chrome OS. While some Linux purists decry calling Google's operating systems "Linux," it simply cannot be denied. They are Linux. I can understand some people suggesting traditional Linux distributions like Ubuntu or Fedora, but Chrome OS -- and the Chromebooks on which it runs -- is arguably more secure while also being easier to use. If I had to choose one operating… [Continue Reading]
