Dropbox foolishly limits its free user accounts to a mere three devices
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 7:02pm CET par Brian Fagioli
The cloud storage market is very crowded. With behemoths such as Google, Microsoft, and Apple all offering competitively priced offerings (not to mention free options), how can any other company compete? Dropbox, for instance, is a great service, but the writing is on the wall -- pundits and analysts have been predicting its acquisition by one of the aforementioned three companies for years now. True, Dropbox is still successful now, but it can't afford to offer cloud storage at a loss, while the big guys can if they choose. Capitalism! With all of that said, Dropbox would be foolish to… [Continue Reading] -
Google adds privacy-focused DuckDuckGo search engine to Chrome
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 6:00pm CET par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson
Update to Chrome 73 and you might be in for a bit of a shock. With absolutely no fanfare whatsoever, Google has added DuckDuckGo to the list of search engines available in its web browser. In fact, the company has updated the default list of search engines it offers in over 60 markets, but it is the addition of privacy-focused DuckDuckGo that comes as the most welcome surprise. See also: DuckDuckGo reminds ignorant users that many websites ignore browsers' Do Not Track privacy requests Privacy-centric DuckDuckGo shuns Google and turns to Apple Maps for location-based searches DuckDuckGo denies using fingerprinting… [Continue Reading] -
Gearbest security flaw leaks millions of order and user details
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 5:05pm CET par Ian Barker
A badly configured server at Gearbest, the Chinese purveyor of technology and other stuff online, has leaked millions of user profiles and order details. White hat hacker Noam Rotem discovered an Elasticsearch server that was -- indeed still is at the time of writing -- leaking millions of records each week. These include customer data, orders, and payment records. The server wasn't protected with a password, potentially allowing anyone to search its data. Rotem published details of the leak at VPNmentor. Data exposed includes details of products bought and shipping information, plus payment details, email addresses, and other customer data… [Continue Reading] -
Businesses plan to use more AI and machine learning in cybersecurity this year -- even though they don't understand it
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 4:30pm CET par Ian Barker
The use of more artificial intelligence to improve security has been touted for a while. New research from Webroot reveals that a majority of business are now actively exploring the technology. It finds 71 percent of businesses surveyed in the United States plan to use more artificial intelligence and machine learning in their cybersecurity tools this year. However, a worrying 58 percent say that aren't sure what that technology really does. Although over one-third (36 percent) of organizations experienced a damaging cyberattack within the last year, the majority are still extremely confident (83 percent) they have all the tools they… [Continue Reading] -
Analysis of Remote Access Trojans helps understand third-party business risk
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 3:36pm CET par Ian Barker
Remote Access Trojans (RATs) are often used to steal information from enterprise networks. By looking at network metadata, analysts at threat intelligence firm Recorded Future have been able to identify RAT command-and-control (C2) servers, and more crucially, which corporate networks are communicating to those controllers. This offers insight about third-party organizations that Recorded Future clients can use to get a better understanding of potential third-party risk to their own data. The research identified active malware controllers for 14 malware families between December 2, 2018 and January 9, 2019. It then focused analysis on a subset of malware -- Emotet, Xtreme RAT,… [Continue Reading] -
What is a zombie (comatose) server, and why should I care?
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 3:13pm CET par Marc Cram
Whatis.com states that "a zombie server is a physical server that is running but has no external communications or visibility and contributes no compute resources, that it consumes electricity but is serving no useful purpose." In a time when a server was dedicated to running a particular application or performing a specific function such as the late 1990s or early 2000s, this definition of a "zombie" made sense. Generally speaking, zombie servers happened because they were forgotten, or never configured for the purpose for which they had been acquired (a dirty secret of the IT industry). In many cases, once plugged in, the server… [Continue Reading] -
Western Digital releases affordable WD Blue SN500 NVMe SSD
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 12:59pm CET par Brian Fagioli
Last month, I reviewed the HUAWEI MateBook 13 -- an excellent Windows 10 laptop. I was impressed with many aspects of that computer, including the very speedy Western Digital NVMe solid state drive. I’m usually a Samsung man when it comes to SSDs -- after all, its drives are always superb. But thanks to the respectable performance of the drive found in the aforementioned laptop, I am now intrigued by Western Digital SSDs too. Back in January, Western Digital announced the WD Black SN750 -- an NVMe SSD for enthusiasts. Today, the company releases a budget-focused NVMe SSD aimed at upgraders that… [Continue Reading] -
GNOME 3.32 'Taipei' is finally here! The best Linux desktop environment gets even better
Publié: mars 14, 2019, 1:25am CET par Brian Fagioli
Whether or not a desktop environment is "best" is subjective. In other words, not all people prefer the same DE. Some folks like GNOME, others are KDE Plasma fans, and some Linux users choose something else. With that said, GNOME is the best. It is not debatable -- please accept this fact. GNOME simply offers the most sensical user interface while also being beautiful. Look, when Canonical killed the much-maligned Unity, what DE was chosen as the new default DE for Ubuntu? Exactly -- GNOME. Hell, GNOME bests both macOS and Windows 10 too. Today, the best gets even better… [Continue Reading]
