  Winamp is being updated and reimagined as an audio app for mobile

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 10:03pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  The name Winamp -- you know, the audio player that "really whips the llama's ass" -- is one that will stir up nostalgic memories for people of a certain age. Since its inception in the mid-90s, Winamp gained a huge and loyal following but, after changing hands a couple of times since the turn of the century, it was then largely forgotten. But Winamp is making a comeback. In the next few days the desktop app will be getting an update -- not that this is something you should expect too much from -- but it is what's happening in… [Continue Reading]

  Bad Intel audio driver kills sound in Windows 10 -- here's how to fix the problem

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 6:00pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Microsoft has had a tough time of it lately. The Windows 10 October 2018 Update deleted files for some users, introduced display audio problems, and broke Edge and Windows Store apps. It was so awful, that Microsoft was forced to pause the update, and send it back for testing. As if all that wasn’t bad enough, an Intel audio driver was incorrectly pushed to devices via Windows Update late last week, which unfortunately killed the audio for those who received it. If you’ve been affected, there are two options for getting your sound back. Firstly you can manually uninstall the… [Continue Reading]

  New technology helps businesses to assess cyber risks

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 3:38pm CEST par Ian Barker

  In a world of digital transformation projects that increasingly mean more links to suppliers and partners, it can be hard for companies to assess the risk presented by opening up their data to third-parties. To address this problem RiskRecon is launching new asset valuation algorithms that automatically determine the inherent risk value of any internet facing system. "Risk professionals spend too much time analyzing mountains of issues to determine the risk relevance," says Kelly White, co-founder and CEO of RiskRecon. "RiskRecon automatically contextualizes every issue with issue severity and asset value that enables professionals to easily identify risk priorities and needed action." RiskRecon… [Continue Reading]

  Cyberattacks shift their focus onto business in third quarter

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 3:00pm CEST par Ian Barker

  After a relatively quiet first half of the year, cyberattacks have come back with a bang in the third quarter according to the latest report from Malwarebytes. Businesses seem to have become the main focus of attacks, experiencing more cybercriminal activity this quarter, with detections up by 55 percent, while consumer detections increased by only four percent over the last quarter. Trojans are making a comeback too, rising 86 percent from the last quarter. Trojans were the number one detection for both businesses and consumers, due in part to the active and widespread Emotet campaign. Ransomware has also picked up… [Continue Reading]

  Malicious messages are locking up PlayStation 4 consoles

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 1:37pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  We've heard of problems with specially-crafted messages being used to lock up iPhones, and now a similar problem has been found with the PlayStation 4. Anyone who receives one of these messages will find that their console completely locks up -- and the only way out of it is to perform a factory reset. The problem lies in messages that include unrecognized characters, and it is being exploited by some gamers to boot people offline in the middle of games -- Rainbow Six in particular. While there is no fix available at the moment, there are steps you can take… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 12:57pm CEST par Ian Barker

  There are expected to be more than 420 million internet connected devices in use across the UK within the next three years and if poorly secured these can leave people exposed to security issues and even large scale cyberattacks. To address this, a new voluntary Code of Practice is being launched by the UK government to help manufacturers boost the security of internet-connected devices such as smartwatches, virtual assistants and toys. Minister for Digital, Margot James, says From smartwatches to children's toys, internet-connected devices have positively impacted our lives but it is crucial they have the best possible security to… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 11:28am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Twitter is being investigated by the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) over concerns about how much data it collects through its t.co link-shortening tool. The Irish privacy regulator is concerned about the amount of data Twitter is able to collect through the service -- something that was only heightened by the company's refusal to hand over information about link tracking when it was requested.

  Publié: octobre 15, 2018, 10:25am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson
