  NVIDIA 'GeForce NOW Recommended Routers' program helps gamers choose networking gear

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 8:01pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  When you are an online gamer, your network connection matters -- the lower the latency the better. Nothing is more heartbreaking than losing a match due to a flaky Wi-Fi connection. True, gamers should try to use a hardwired connection when they can, but for many, this simply isn't possible. Renters, for instance, may not be able to run cable through walls. Instead, these gamers must choose their Wi-Fi gear wisely to get the most of their connection. Unfortunately, choosing a gaming router can be quite the daunting task. There are so many of them on the market these days… [Continue Reading]

  Facebook gave dozens of companies access to user data such as friends lists and private messages

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 7:12pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Details have come to light about the deals Facebook struck with the likes of Microsoft, Spotify, Netflix, Apple and Amazon. A report by the New York Times revealed that the social network had given numerous companies access to a plethora of private user data, ranging from the names of friends, to private messages. Facebook has responded by saying that no access was granted to third parties without user permission, but questions remain about whether users were fully aware of the level of access companies had to their data, or whether they knew they were agreeing to sharing private data.

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 6:30pm CET par Wayne Williams

  Although there are plenty of office suites available, including lots of free choices, Microsoft Office remains the one that most people use. Today, Microsoft rolls out a new app for Windows 10 called, simply, Office, which is designed to replace the existing My Office app. The app itself is free and can be used with any Office 365 subscription, Office 2019, Office 2016, and Office Online -- the free web-based version of Office for consumers. It’s not available for all users at the moment. You’ll need to be a Windows Insider if you want to get your hands on it… [Continue Reading]

  IoT malware up over 200 percent in 2018

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 4:01pm CET par Ian Barker

  New malware targeting IoT devices grew 72 percent, with total malware growing 203 percent in the last four quarters according to McAfee's third quarter threat report. This growth has been partly due to devices being harnessed for cryptomining. IoT devices such as cameras or video recorders have not typically been used for this because they lack the CPU power of desktop and laptop computers. However, cybercriminals have taken notice of the growing volume and lax security of many IoT devices and have begun to focus on them, harnessing thousands of devices to create a mining super-computer. New coin-mining malware grew… [Continue Reading]

  One in three networks has exposed passwords

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 3:10pm CET par Ian Barker

  Passwords are exposed in Group Policy Preferences in 32.2 percent of networks, according to new research, leaving them open to the risk of hackers traveling laterally through the network. The study from identity and access specialist Preempt also shows organizations lack visibility and control when it comes to their passwords and privileged users. Almost 97 percent of inspected enterprises revealed at least one security issue between Active Directory issues and password policies, while 72.2 percent had 'stealthy admins' -- users with excessive administrative privileges that could be used or manipulated by malicious actors. "While cybersecurity spending is at all time… [Continue Reading]

  Ubuntu-based Linux Mint 19.1 'Tessa' finally available with Cinnamon, MATE, or Xfce

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 2:55pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  The mainstreaming of Linux is accelerating every day. Many servers use Linux distributions, while Android remains the undisputed king of mobile. True, adoption of operating systems based on the open source kernel are still virtually nonexistent on the desktop, but as Windows 10 gets worse and worse, more and more home users may turn to Ubuntu, Google Chrome OS, and others. Just yesterday, Dell updated two of its mobile workstations to the latest Ubuntu LTS version. If you are tired of the Windows 10 nonsense, and want to try an alternative operating system, Linux Mint is a great starting point.… [Continue Reading]

  AI security solutions are popular with executives -- but are they really working?

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 2:42pm CET par Ian Barker

  According to a new study released by ProtectWise, AI has already established a strong foothold in the security space, with 73 percent of respondents reporting that they have implemented security solutions that incorporate at least some aspect of AI. Most organizations cite AI's ability to improve the efficiency of security staff members and make investigation of alerts faster as top priorities. But it's executives, not the people who manage security, who are the biggest advocates for AI. 55 percent of respondents say that the strongest advocates for AI-based security products in their organization are IT executives, while 38 percent say… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft announces Windows Sandbox, a desktop environment for running applications in isolation

  Publié: décembre 19, 2018, 12:31pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Microsoft has announced an upcoming security feature which it hopes will take the fear and risk out of running unknown software. Windows Sandbox is an isolated desktop environment which functions much like a virtual machine; any software installed to it is completely sandboxed from the host operating system. Aimed at businesses, enterprises and security-conscious home users, Windows Sandbox will be part of Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise. It is not clear exactly when the feature will debut, but it could make an appearance in Windows 10 19H1 next year. See also: Microsoft may have sent you an email… [Continue Reading]
