  Game of Thrones: 1 in 4 online viewers are watching from an account they don’t pay for

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 10:52pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  The latest -- and last -- series of the biggest TV show in the world kicked off on Sunday, and brought in some big numbers for HBO. 17.4 million viewers tuned in for the season 8 premiere of Game of Thrones, either watching live on TV or streaming the show on HBO GO or HBO Now. Quentin Schaffer, executive vice president of corporate communications for HBO, is expecting the number to build further, saying it "could eventually surpass the viewing average last year of 33 million per episode". But while it’s all great news for HBO, piracy remains a dragon-sized… [Continue Reading]

  Apple and Qualcomm bring their global legal fight to an end

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 10:00pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Apple and Qualcomm have been suing each other since January 2017. The iPhone maker first sued Qualcomm for over $1 billion, contending that the chip maker was overcharging for its patent licenses, and in response Qualcomm counter-sued and tried to get iPhones banned in a number of countries, siting patent infringement. In total, there were over 80 ongoing lawsuits in effect globally between the two tech firms, and yesterday saw the start of what was expected to be a three-week trial in a federal court in San Diego.

  Logitech Harmony Express is a revolutionary universal voice remote with integrated Amazon Alexa

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 8:15pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Back in the day, people would have several remote controls in their living room, for things like TVs, DVD players, and stereos to name a few. It was messy and confusing, and quite frankly, caused arguments in households. Remotes were constantly misplaced, and some non-savvy family members would often get frustrated by never knowing which remote to use. The universal remote solved that dilemma, but it caused yet another -- even though there was just one remote, there were too many buttons. Sitting down and watching TV or a DVD should be a mindless affair, where you don't need to… [Continue Reading]

  Huawei says US government is 'ignorant of technology'

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 7:24pm CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Having faced accusations of conducting espionage on behalf of the Chinese government, Huawei has lashed out at the US government, accusing officials of being "ignorant of technology". Huawei has been hit with numerous bans by the US, and the country has encouraged others around the world to follow its lead. But the company's chief security officer, John Suffolk, says there is no evidence that China could make use of Huawei's 5G equipment to spy on people, suggesting that US allegations were politically motivated.

  Understanding the Brazilian hacking community [Q&A]

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 4:21pm CEST par Ian Barker

  We tend to think of hacking communities as being concentrated in the Far East or the former Soviet bloc, but of course there hackers elsewhere that we don't hear so much about. Researchers at Recorded Future have been investigating hacking communities around the world, and their latest report covers Brazil. It finds that hackers in Brazil are keen to follow the money and have shown an impressive ability to bypass internet banking security controls and ATM security. What's more the country's high level hackers often succeed in overcoming two factor authentication. One of the reasons we hear relatively little about… [Continue Reading]

  Avast releases 'Aspen', its most secure browser to date

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 4:08pm CEST par Chris Wiles

  People tell us they are becoming increasingly wary of using third-party browsers such as those from Opera, Chrome and Firefox. It might come as a surprise, but many average users will opt to stick with their default OS browser, Edge, and a powerful security suite to keep themselves secure. The question is, is this the most secure way of surfing the web in 2019? Could the connection between your computer and the internet be made more rock solid? Well, Avast certainly thinks so. Avast has launched 'Aspen' which is a codename for the latest version of its Secure Browser, based… [Continue Reading]

  New platform helps search and analysis of cloud-stored data

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 3:30pm CEST par Ian Barker

  As companies store ever larger amounts of data, the current solutions and services available to handle it become more and more costly and difficult to manage. To address these challenges, Boston-based CHAOSSEARCH is launching a new platform that delivers rapid search and analytics through a managed service, based on simple, elastic storage. The platform helps eliminate the need to move or transform data into specific siloed databases via patent pending Data Edge technology. Data Edge fully indexes datasets with its built-in schema detection, normalization and compression algorithms. Customers can dynamically and seamlessly combine storage with indexing for live and historical… [Continue Reading]

  Government websites top the charts for online trust

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 1:18pm CEST par Ian Barker

  The Internet Society's Online Trust Alliance (OTA), which identifies and promotes online security and privacy best practices, announced today the results of its latest Online Trust Audit and Honor Roll. The Audit finds that 70 percent of analyzed websites qualified for the Honor Roll, the highest proportion ever, and up from 52 percent in 2017, driven primarily by improvements in email authentication and session encryption. Perhaps surprising is that the US Federal government category has surged to the front with 91 percent of sites placing on the honor roll, a dramatic turnaround from 2017 when government sites had bottomed out… [Continue Reading]

  Energy industry vulnerable to attacks on outdated systems

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 11:35am CEST par Ian Barker

  Critical infrastructure sites and energy distribution facilities are increasingly being targeted by cybercriminals. But many of the systems in use today were installed and built before 24/7 internet connections. A new report from Finnish cybersecurity company F-Secure highlights the fact that cybersecurity was not a realistic threat when these systems were manufactured, and legacy protocols and systems never had the built-in security controls that we take for granted today. Connecting these systems to the internet has opened them up to attacks from myriad angles. "Espionage and sabotage attacks against CNI (Critical National Infrastructure) organizations have increased over the years and… [Continue Reading]

  UK recommends that Facebook and other social media sites disable 'like' option and data collection for minors

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 9:26am CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  UK watchdog the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has put forward new proposals it believes will help to improve the safety of children online. Among the recommendations is the suggestion that Facebook and other social media sites should disable "like" functionality for minors. The ICO's "Age Appropriate Design" consultation document is a code of practice for online services, and includes proposals such as minimum age checks and an increase in privacy settings for minors. Another suggestion in the 16-point set of proposals is that social media firms limit the collection of personal data about under-18s. See also: Forget Easter eggs, Facebook… [Continue Reading]

  Hulu buys back AT&T's 9.5 percent stake

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 8:30am CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Hulu has bought back the minority share AT&T held in the streaming video firm. The two companies have come to an arrangement which sees Hulu purchasing AT&T's minority stake for $1.43 billion. Buying the 9.5 percent stake at this price values Hulu at $15 billion. The deal gives even greater control to Walt Disney Co, which holds a 60 percent stake in Hulu as part of a joint venture.

  Urban Armor Gear launches Plasma Series cases for Huawei P30 and P30 Pro

  Publié: avril 16, 2019, 6:53am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  My everyday smartphone is an iPhone 8 Plus. It's a phenomenal device -- it has a big display, insanely long battery life, a great camera, wireless charging, and Touch ID -- not Apple's finicky face unlock nonsense found on its newer phones. Best of all, it uses the very secure iOS operating system. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Android -- quite the opposite. What I don't like, however, is not getting timely OS updates. That is what ultimately drove me from Google's mobile operating system to Apple's. There is one new Android smartphone that is so exceptional, however, that… [Continue Reading]
