  Google doubles down on Chrome extension security by blocking inline installations

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 9:09pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  At the moment there are a couple of ways to install Chrome extensions -- either via the Chrome Web Store as Google would prefer, or via an inline installation from any website. Aware that this latter option opens up the possibility of people installing malicious extensions, Google is clamping down. Starting today, all newly-published extensions can only be installed via the Chrome Web Store, and this restriction will extend to existing extensions over the remainder of the year.

  Toshiba launches affordable RC100 NVMe SSD

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 9:06pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Solid state drives keep dropping in price, but unfortunately, they are still too expensive for many consumers. This is a shame, as moving from an HDD to an SSD can provide a huge performance boost. Heck, in some cases, it can make your aging PC feel like a brand-new computer! NVMe variants in particular are blazing fast. Toshiba is aiming to make NVMe solid state drives more affordable with the launch of its latest such product. Called "RC100," it is available in three capacities -- 120GB, 240GB, and 480GB. "While the performance advantages of first-generation NVMe drives are well known, this… [Continue Reading]

  Coinbase announces Ethereum Classic support, coin skyrockets afterwards

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 6:58pm CEST par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Coinbase is one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, so when it announces plans to support a new player the news is bound to have a major impact on the market. The result is always the same: a massive buying spree, which can lead to coins posting double-digit gains in a matter of hours. This was also the case for Ethereum Classic, which will be listed on Coinbase in the coming months. The exchange says that it will be included first on Coinbase Custody, which is where customers will be able to make deposits and withdrawals. It will… [Continue Reading]

  Google Home can now handle up to three queries at a time

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 5:56pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  With there being a number of digital assistants to choose from, each is now focusing on becoming smarter than the competition. To this end, Google Home can now respond to strings of up to three commands at once. The "multiple queries" feature is currently available in English for USA, UK, Canada and Australia, and  enables Google Home users to perform up to three functions with a single utterance. Users, however, seem a little confused about how it all works. See also: Google says it will continue to work with the military on AI, but won't get involved in weapons or… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 5:46pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  If you are a PC gamer and you don't have a mechanical keyboard, it's time to upgrade.

This option will provide both tactile and audible feedback. It will be available on two keyboard models -- the all-new G512 (which Logitech announces today), and the existing G513. Don't like audible feedback? Don't worry -- the new… [Continue Reading]

  Two thirds of organizations can't deliver on DevOps

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 4:48pm CEST par Ian Barker

  According to a new report, 74 percent of respondents believe DevOps enablement capabilities are essential, very important, or important for their organization. Yet only 33 percent believe their organization has the ability to deliver those capabilities. This is according to research carried out by the Ponemon Institute and sponsored by digital business specialist Embotics, which analyzed the results of a survey of more than 600 individuals responsible for cloud management at organizations with an average budget of $147 million for managing hybrid cloud operations. A sizeable 46 percent of respondents say that their organization's cloud consumption model is 'cloud direct,'… [Continue Reading]

  New solution helps secure infrastructure across OT and IT environments

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 4:11pm CEST par Ian Barker

  Historically, infrastructure systems and operational technology (OT) were designed to work in isolation from IT. But in the modern world these environments are increasingly converged and that can open up new attack routes. Cyber exposure specialist Tenable is launching a new solution to manage Cyber Exposure holistically across IT and OT systems. This is based on enhancements to the Tenable.io platform and Industrial Security, an asset discovery and vulnerability detection solution for OT systems, delivered in partnership with Siemens. Features include smart scanning which builds an intelligence layer on top of active scanning and passive network monitoring to assess IT… [Continue Reading]

  Business use of machine data analytics growing faster than expected

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 3:30pm CEST par Ian Barker

  New research commissioned by cloud-native analytics platform Sumo Logic from 451 Research, reveals that the degree to which non-IT roles and functions are using machine data analytics for business value is growing faster than anticipated. The findings show the more software-centric a company is, the more likely it is to have 100+ people who use machine data analytics at least once a week, indicating that these companies are recognizing the value of machine data analytics. These businesses are also more likely to have line-of-business users integrating machine data with data from BI tools, to gain the visibility they need to… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 2:57pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Amazon’s Fire TV products are very popular with Kodi users, because it’s easy to install the media center software on it, along with any streaming add-ons. Users of Kodi boxes are used to hearing of potential dangers -- some threats of which need to be taken with a pinch of salt -- but there’s a new malware variant that’s infecting Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick devices globally, and which could well be on your device now.

  IT decision makers limit cloud use due to difficulties with compliance

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 2:46pm CEST par Ian Barker

  A new study shows that 87 percent of IT Decision Makers (ITDMs) limit their use of the cloud because of the complexity of managing regulatory compliance. According to the research by WinMagic, which spoke to ITDMs in Germany, India, the UK and US, 24 percent say this means they only work with a single cloud vendor in their infrastructure, rather than exploit the benefits of a multi-cloud environment. Among other findings are that 63 percent feel the need to use multiple infrastructure management tools is a hugely restricting factor in their use of multiple cloud vendors. Looking specifically at managing… [Continue Reading]

  Apple slaps a ban on cryptocurrency mining apps

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 2:17pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Apple has updated its developer guidelines, making it clear that apps that overtly or covertly mine for cryptocurrencies are simply not welcome in the App Store. The clamp down covers iOS devices, and it has only recently been introduced. The ban means that iPhones and iPads cannot be used to mine for cryptocurrencies, unless the processing is carried out in the cloud. It's not clear how big a problem mining apps have been, and iOS hardware would seem rather underpowered for the task.

  Which? finds half of Windows 10 users have encountered problems, calls for Microsoft to pay compensation

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 1:29pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  It’s fair to say Windows 10 hasn’t had the smoothest of rides. Users were slow to adopt it, and Microsoft’s response to this -- forcing the OS on to users against their will -- didn’t go down at all well. As you’d expect. Windows 10 is now a pretty good operating system, and offers a number of welcome features, but it’s not without its problems, as consumer champion Which? has found. Back in 2016, Which? criticized Microsoft for its hard sell approach to Windows 10 and then for its poor customer support. In a new follow up piece, the charity… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 1:25pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Reporters covering the historic meeting between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-Un in Singapore have been given a gift bag that has security experts concerned. In addition to bottled water and a local guidebook, the gift bag also contained a USB fan. While on the face of it this would seem to offer a way to combat the Singaporean heat, the fan also sparked warnings that it could be laced with malware.

  Media and entertainment companies have riskier mobile apps

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 1:20pm CEST par Ian Barker

  As the world increasingly turns to mobile devices to access the internet and conduct business, so firms are eager to put out their own apps. But new research from security ratings company BitSight reveals that many companies may be rushing out apps that have vulnerabilities which could lead to data leakage, privilege abuse, unencrypted personally identifiable information (PII), and credential theft. BitSight examined representative samples of more than 1,000 companies in five industry sectors that offer mobile applications on iOS and Android. It found over half of the companies studied in the media and entertainment industry offer risky mobile applications.… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 12, 2018, 2:39am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Google is all about data. Yes, the company has the ability to track individuals using the information it collects, but more importantly, it can analyze on a more macro level, discovering global trends. Heck, Google has the potential to change the world by properly leveraging its collected data. Today, Google is sharing some search trends that, while fun, are not at all world-changing. Actually, they are bordering on silly, but that's OK. What are they? Dad-related trends to celebrate the upcoming Father's Day which is this Sunday!
