It was last Thursday that a man entered an Apple store in Dijon, France, and for no apparent reason the man began to destroy the various devices and little later it was exposed that the madman was using a metal sphere. The man who should have about 30 years, has not yet been identified. The vast majority of the affected products were the iPhones, but the madman also destroyed a MacBook that was in the exhibition booth with a blow of punch....

What is CISA? The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) was formerly the National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD). This new name for the DHS department better reflects its core function. Like the National Security Agency (NSA) is tasked with protecting the .mil domains of the U.S. military, it’s the job of DHS (and more specifically CISA) to protect the .gov space of the civilian government. CISA’s name and mission both reflect its core mandate: to protect the U....

Then you can buy a decent power bank from companies such as Anker or Zendure and get a product that’ll cost you more money, but you know it’s going to work, work well, and give you years of service. If I need a power bank for my off-the-grid activities, this is when I turn to something more professional. V-mount batteries. Originally developed by Sony, the V-mount became a standard that’s now found on all sorts of non-Sony equipment, powering cameras, lighting, displays, microphones, and other devices....

If you want to know more about !bangs and DDG in general, you should read that article first. Today, I’ll be talking about the process of finally ditching Google and moving on to DuckDuckGo. Sadly, it’s not as easy as flicking a switch. But the couple of minutes you spend on setting everything up will surely be worth it. Switch the Default Search Engine In Chrome: Surprise, surprise. Google doesn’t really make it easy to switch the default search engine to DuckDuckGo....

One cannot help but think of those words from the Bible as one sees some of the exchanges between “bloggers” and communications professional (PRs, corp comm, et al.). While there is no doubt that the “say something negative or complain and get a product/attention” culture seems to have gripped a fair number of the blogger community, what also cannot be doubted is that this has to an extent been fanned by the communication teams of different brands....

The market applications which were reviewed include the following: Logical Access Control; Physical Access Control; Time and Attendance; Law Enforcement; Surveillance. The first two of these applications deal with gaining some sort of control or access to a needed resource. For example, when it comes to Logical Access Entry, an individual is wishing to gain access to either their workstation or another network resource. Traditionally, it has been the password which has been used, but it is now starting to show its grave security vulnerabilities....

The attack technique devised by the experts was dubbed “Rowhammer,” its exploitation could allow attackers to obtain higher kernel privileges on the target system. The Rowhammer issue is classified as a problem affecting some recent DRAM devices in which repeatedly accessing a row of memory can cause bit flips in adjacent rows, this means that theoretically, an attacker can change any value of the bit in the memory. A research paper published by experts from the Carnegie Mellon University and the Intel Labs provides a detailed analysis of the techniques to exploit the Rowhammer issue....

The core rationale behind the myths and complications revolving around it is the name which translates to “just a browser” for the majority. Principally, that’s true, although Chrome OS, as I mentioned, has received a slew of critical updates recently, making it a substantial competitor in the market. However, under the surface, there are many features users don’t even discover during their usage; hence here’s a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about Chrome OS....

I’ve seen the likes of Belkin put out quality iPhone mounts for this purpose, but they can run you up to $30 a piece. Instead, something like the Elephant Card – yes, that’s the actual name – costs just $8 ($2 off) while supplies last and, in some ways, does the job even better than its more-expensive competition. More: How to use your iPhone as a webcam with Continuity Camera All that’s needed to make Continuity Camera happen is a Mac computer running MacOS Ventura, an iPhone running on iOS 16, and a mount to keep the handset afloat....

The company said that the malicious apps we’ve seen that have this new remote routine range from utility apps. Like flashlights and Wi-Fi apps to copies of a popular game. Some apps are clean but have a corresponding malicious version that shares the same developer certificate.

According to The Korea Times, the third generation Note will have a massive 5.9 inch FullHD (1080p) screen. A prototype will be shown to AT&T executives this week, which is nothing to be surprised about. Device makers always show prototype to operators because operators like to plan their product portfolios months in advance....

The app is already on the Windows App store but it needs Microsoft SIM card in order to function. Another missing piece is the regions in which Microsoft will be releasing the new services in. That being said the service will be knotted with your Microsoft account. By now it’s pretty clear that Microsoft wants to create a MVNO of its own to facilitate Windows 10 users to connect to partner carriers and in all likelihood Microsoft will be entering into deals with the individual operators to make their SIM card work in tandem....
