From discrimination to invasions of privacy: The dangers of social media background checks
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 10:46pm CEST par Michael Klazema
Social media background checks are slowly becoming the norm. According to CareerBuilder, 70 percent of employers use social media in some way to vet their employees. In most cases, these checks are innocent -- or at least well-intentioned. Employers want to make sure the people they hire are conducting themselves online appropriately and respectfully. No brand wants one of their employees sending out offensive tweets on a regular basis or badmouthing his or her boss on Facebook. Intention is not the only thing that matters with social media background checks. In fact, employers can, and do, stumble into a mess… [Continue Reading] -

Canonical releases new infographic to show how Ubuntu Linux 'connects everything'
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 8:26pm CEST par Brian Fagioli
Microsoft owns the desktop with Windows -- it is undeniable. You know what? That's fine. But the success of Windows is not a failure for Linux. What I mean to say is, the open source kernel is omnipresent, whether you know it or not. To highlight the ubiquitous nature of Ubuntu in particular, Canonical today releases an all-new infographic showing how this distribution "connects everything." I urge you to give it a look, as it will open your eyes to just how important Ubuntu -- and Linux overall -- really is. Apparently, this is an update to a previous infographic… [Continue Reading] -
Hide your viewing and search history with YouTube Incognito Mode
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 7:04pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson
Chrome's Incognito Mode is handy for those times you want to hide your browsing history from others on a shared system -- whether it's because you want to keep a birthday gift secret, or there are just sites you visit that you’d rather keep private. Now the same feature is coming to YouTube. Having already undergone a period of testing, Incognito Mode is rolling out to Android users around the world, making it easy to hide evidence of the videos you have been watching, or the type of content you have been searching for. The general rollout of the feature… [Continue Reading] -
Apple releases iOS 11.4.1 with passcode cracking blocker -- that can be easily bypassed with an accessory it sells
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 6:23pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson
Apple is working away on iOS 12 at the moment, but it's still pushing out updates for iOS 11. As promised just a few weeks ago, a new update aims to block the use of iPhone passcode cracking tools, such as those used by law enforcement. But the patch has already been found to be flawed. The latest update to iOS introduces a new USB Restricted Mode which is supposed to prevent the Lightning port of an iPhone or iPad being used to transfer data an hour after the device is locked. However, security researchers discovered that it is possible… [Continue Reading] -
Microsoft Surface Go now available to pre-order
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 5:07pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson
There might be interest in a Surface Phone, but for now there's the Surface Go to enjoy. Revealed late yesterday, the Surface Go is described as Microsoft's "smallest, lightest Surface yet" -- and it's available to pre-order right now. Unfortunately, there's no discount for jumping on a pre-order, but if you're quick, you should be able to guarantee that you'll get one when it launches on August 2. The tablet will cost you $399, but you'll need to purchase a Signature Type Cover separately if you want to type rather than using the on-screen keyboard, and a Surface Pen if… [Continue Reading] -
100 percent of corporate networks vulnerable to insider attacks
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 4:54pm CEST par Ian Barker
Penetration testing company Positive Technologies has released some alarming figures surrounding the vulnerability of corporate networks to insider attacks. During testing performed as an internal attacker, the company's researchers were able to obtain full control of infrastructure on all the corporate networks they attempted to compromise. Only seven percent of systems were assessed as having 'moderate' difficulty of accessing critical resources. Penetrating the network perimeter has become easier over time too. The difficulty of accessing the internal network was assessed as 'trivial' in 56 percent of tests in 2017, compared to 27 percent in 2016. On average, Positive Technologies testers… [Continue Reading] -

Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 4:44pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson
Google continues to expand the capabilities of Google Pay, and today the company launched a new series of updates. Catching up with the likes of Apple Pay, Google's own digital wallet can now be used to store boarding cards and tickets. While this is something that is already catered for by other apps -- such as those from airlines and box offices -- Google is clearly hoping that its "everything under one roof" approach will attract users. In addition to the new ticketing option, Google Pay is also combining the Google Pay and Google Pay Send apps. See also: How… [Continue Reading] -

How much does Google know about you?
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 1:38pm CEST par Ian Barker
We all know that Google collects data and uses it to sell adverts. But just how well does Google know you? VPN service comparison site TheBestVPN has created a full guide to how the corporation tracks you and what it does with the information. Google's apps give the company a wealth of information on you, from the personal details that make up who you are, to your interests, your past travels, and your future goals. But this is more than just facts and figures. Thanks to facial recognition in Google photos, the search giant probably has a pretty good idea of… [Continue Reading] -

Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 12:42pm CEST par Ian Barker
According to a new study, 68 percent of IT professionals believe their organizations are failing to carry out all procedures in line with data protection laws.

This is Microsoft Surface Go
Publié: juillet 10, 2018, 3:17am CEST par Brian Fagioli
Microsoft’s Surface computers are quite popular, but unfortunately, they are quite expensive too. Some consumers simply can’t afford them. Thankfully, Microsoft today announces a new computer that puts Surface in reach of more people. Called "Surface Go," it is is an affordable Windows tablet with a 10-inch, 1800 x 1200 display. How much does it cost? It starts at a rather low $399. Unfortunately, as with the more powerful Surface Pro tablets, a keyboard is not included, making the initial price a bit misleading. “Surface Go offers a stunning, custom-built high-resolution PixelSense Display that supports Surface Pen with 4096 levels… [Continue Reading]
