  Sony SF-G TOUGH SD card is extremely rugged and world's fastest

  Publié: août 29, 2018, 7:00pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  When you think of SD cards, your mind probably goes to brands such as SanDisk and Kingston. While both of those companies make great storage products, they aren't the only game in town. In fact, Sony actually sells both storage cards and USB flash drives that are quite good. Sony's latest SD card is very intriguing. Called "SF-G TOUGH," it is designed to be extremely rugged -- it is IPX8 waterproof, IP6X dust-proof, and will survive drops from up to 5 meters. By design, it has no write-protection switch, as that part that can be prone to failure. In addition,… [Continue Reading]

  Attention span of a goldfish? Maybe the message is at fault

  Publié: août 29, 2018, 4:26pm CEST par Ian Barker

  It's commonly assumed that the internet and electronic communication is making people less able to concentrate and leading to shorter attention spans. But a new study from presentation platform Prezi finds that in fact attention spans may not be shrinking, rather they are evolving to be more selective. The study looked at the effectiveness of content and presentations and how they resonate with business professionals across demographics, including millennials, Generation X, and baby boomers, and finds that the key to engaging content is a compelling narrative combined with stimulating visuals and dialogue. "Our attention spans being shorter than a goldfish's… [Continue Reading]

Corporate executives share the same broad concerns as their IT security teams. When asked to name the top three cybersecurity concerns facing their organizations, both groups cite data loss and data theft/exfiltration as their top two concerns. Opinions differ after that, however, with cybersecurity pros putting ransomware at… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: août 29, 2018, 2:37pm CEST par John Kronick

  Internet scam artists have found a new way to deceive user to surrender their personal information. It’s called SMISHING -- when someone tries to trick you into giving them your private information (including user IDs and passwords) via a text or SMS message. It is an emerging and growing threat, a form of criminal activity using social engineering techniques in the same way Phishing is for email scamming.

  Privacy: Yahoo still scans your emails... and wants to sell data to advertisers

  Publié: août 29, 2018, 12:24pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Oath -- the owner of Yahoo -- is in talks with advertisers, promoting a service that scans the content of emails and provides a wealth of information about users. The service would give advertisers access to data contained in over 200 million Yahoo Mail inboxes. Email scanning would also apply to AOL Mail inboxes, also owned by Oath. As noted by the Wall Street Journal, Oath is now the only major US email provider than scans emails in this way -- and the way to opt out is well-hidden.

  Google denies bias after Trump launches accusatory attack on the search giant

  Publié: août 29, 2018, 10:42am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Donald Trump has accused Google of rigging its search results so that "good news" about the president is drowned out by unfavorable stories from the "Fake News Media". Using his preferred medium of Twitter, he alleged that 96 percent of search results for "Trump News" were from the "National Left-Wing Media", something he described as "very dangerous". Google denied these  accusations of political bias, saying searching results are controlled by constantly-updated algorithms.
