  Microsoft sneaks telemetry into Windows 7 via security update

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 8:07pm CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Microsoft appears to be at it again, adding telemetry components into its operating system. This time around it is Windows 7 that gets the telemetry treatment, and Microsoft seems to have gone about things in a rather sneaky fashion. The latest "security-only" update for Windows 7 includes a Compatibility Appraiser element (KB2952664) which performs checks to see whether a system can be updated to Windows 10. Hardly what most people would consider a security-only update. So what's going on?

  Here's how to play the super secret Google tennis game

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 7:49pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Google may be a publicly traded company worth hundreds of billions, but it still knows how to have fun. In other words, sometimes Google acts like a start up, even though that ship sailed a long time ago. Every once in a while, the company will hide an Easter Egg or other secret thing in its services. For instance, did you know that doing a Google search for the word "askew" without quotes will make the page tilt? It's true -- go try it! It is silly and fun. Continuing with silly antics, Google has hidden a secret tennis game… [Continue Reading]

  Two-thirds of organizations think they'll need AI to respond to future cyber threats

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 5:42pm CEST par Ian Barker

  New data from the Capgemini Research Institute reveals that 69 percent of organizations believe that they won't be able to respond to critical cyber threats without AI. Over half (56 percent) of executives say their cybersecurity analysts are overwhelmed by the vast array of data they need to monitor to detect and prevent intrusion. In addition, the type of cyberattacks that require immediate intervention, or that cannot be dealt with quickly enough by analysts, have increased These high priority threats include attacks affecting time-sensitive applications (42 percent saying they have gone up, by an average of 16 percent), and automated,… [Continue Reading]

  New platform simplifies handling multi-cloud environments

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 3:49pm CEST par Ian Barker

  The rise of cloud adoption has led many businesses to adopt an environment where computing requirements are decoupled from storage and scale independently. But this leads to problems with accessibility and data management. A new platform launched today by Alluxio provides improved orchestration for data engineers managing and deploying analytical and AI workloads in the cloud, particularly for hybrid and multi-cloud environments. "With a data orchestration platform in place, a data analyst or scientist can work under the assumption that the data will be readily accessible regardless of where the data resides or the characteristics of the storage. They can… [Continue Reading]

  Ditch the HDMI cables with IOGEAR's Share Pro Mini Wireless HD Video Transmitter and Receiver [Review]

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 3:16pm CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  The humble HDMI cable is simultaneously brilliant, and a massive pain in the ass. Great for delivering HD video from your computer to a TV or projector, but a serious downside is the fact that, well, it's a cable. Who hasn't yearned for a wireless HDMI cable? This is, effectively, what the Share Pro Mini Wireless HD Video Transmitter and Receiver Kit from IOGEAR is (GWHD2DKIT). It's a two-part piece of equipment that lets you stream audio and video up to 12m (40 feet) wirelessly. Best of all, there's no software involved, and no need for Wi-Fi. The kit comprises… [Continue Reading]

  Summer heightens cyber security risks

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 3:07pm CEST par Ian Barker

  You might think that cyber attacks are a constant year round activity, or perhaps that they are focused on peak shopping periods like Christmas. But a new study from threat protection specialist Lastline reveals many security professionals believe their organizations are more at risk in summer. In a survey of 1,000 security professionals more than half believe cyber attacks are seasonal and 58 percent of those (30.5 percent overall) say that they see more attacks during the summer months. Nearly a half of security professionals (47 percent) report seeing an increase in phishing attacks during the summer, which makes some… [Continue Reading]

  Ekster Parliament 3.0 voice-activated smart wallet [Review]

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 2:06pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  There are three things you likely never leave home without -- your wallet, phone, and keys -- and it could be devastating if you lost any of them, or had them stolen. Ekster 3.0 launched a couple of days ago and is the world’s first voice-activated smart wallet, with worldwide traceability, quick card access, and RFID protection. You can use your phone to track down the wallet should you lose it, and use the wallet to find your phone if that goes missing. (It can’t help with your keys though, so take good care of those). Ekster offers a choice… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 12:14pm CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Dropbox has revealed a new file sharing service that makes it possible to send files of up to 100GB. The company says the service has been designed as a quick and easy alternative to configuring sharing and permissions, and it means that it is possible to share large files even with people who do not have Dropbox accounts. Dropbox Transfer is currently undergoing beta testing, and there's a waiting list to join if you want to take part. But if you're able to get signed up, you'll find that you have a handy alternative to email attachments. There are some… [Continue Reading]

  Apple Watch eavesdropping vulnerability forces Apple to disable Walkie-Talkie app

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 11:53am CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Apple has disabled the Walkie-Talkie app for Apple Watch after a vulnerability that potentially allows for eavesdropping on iPhone conversations emerged. The company says that it is not aware of any incidents of the vulnerability being exploited, and it has not shared any details of the security issue. Apple's short-term solution is to simply disable the app while it works on a fix.

  Microsoft is retiring its 3D model repository Remix 3D

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 11:19am CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  Microsoft has emailed users of Remix3D.com to warn them that the site is to be retired in six months' time. The site is a repository of free 3D models designed to be used in the likes of Paint3D, PowerPoint and the Windows 10 Photos app. The move is not entirely surprising as the writing has been on the wall for some time -- references to Remix3D were removed from Paint3D some time ago, for instance.

  Apple and Zoom push out updates to remove potentially privacy-invading web server

  Publié: juillet 11, 2019, 10:50am CEST par Mark Wyciślik-Wilson

  A few days ago, a security issue with the Zoom chat tool came to light -- a flaw that made it possible for Mac webcams to be switched on without permission. Despite seemingly suggesting that the flaw was in fact not a flaw, Zoom issued an update that grants users more control over the software. Apple has also produced an update of its own which nukes the security hole. The silent update has been pushed out to users and is installed without the need for confirmation or user interaction.
