According to analysis by cybersecurity researchers at Sophos, who examined incidents targeting organisations around the world and across a wide range of industry sectors, the median dwell time that cyber criminals spend inside compromised networks is now 15 days, up from 11 days the previous year. Dwell time is the amount of time hackers are inside the network before they’re discovered or before they leave – and being able to spend an increased amount of time inside a compromised network undetected means they’re able to more carefully conduct malicious activity, such as monitoring users, stealing data or laying the foundations for a malware or ransomware attack....

Despite the current volatility in the cryptocurrency market, with prices for many popular coins, including Bitcoin (BTC) plunging, interest in the crypto, token, and NFT spaces remains stable. 2021 was a record-breaking year for cryptocurrency-related theft and fraud. Cybercriminals netted an estimated $14 billion in cryptocurrency, and fraudulent schemes involving digital assets continue to evolve. On Monday, Check Point Research (CPR) said that scammers are now turning their attention to smart contracts, with misconfigurations utilized to launch new crypto tokens – before an inevitable “rug pull” takes place....

Given the profound value of building a solid CIO/CFO partnership, I asked the chief financial officer of ServiceNow, Gina Mastantuono, to share advice for CIOs. She appears as a guest on episode #708 of the CXOTalk series of conversations with people shaping our world....

“The next big innovation for unified communications users will not be a technical innovation,” he said to reporters this week. “It will be a focus on the user experience.” There are whole segments of users, Middleton said, “that have more needs than the traditional back-office worker, but not so many needs that they require a fancy omnichannel contact center app.” That could include sales teams collaborating around opportunities, event staff organized and reorganized each day into project teams, retail floor staff that are tag-teaming curbside pickup SMS notifications, or caseworker teams serving constituents....

That’s my philosophical thought of the day. The more humans have become embedded in technology’s core, the more it’s turned them into paranoid spies. Spy cameras and other software now seem de rigueur for companies. They want to spy on you in the office. They even want to spy on you when you’re working from home. Trust you to do your job? What do you think this is, 1982? I was moved to significant raptures, then, by a story told by a warehouse employee....

While Honor likes to offer a range of different colour choices for its smartphones, the Honor Pad 8 is only available in one colour – the oddly named Blue Hour. It is a slate blue shade, with a matte finish that picks up fingerprints quite readily and is a little slippery.

Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month began in 1978 as a 10-day observance with a Congressional resolution. Congress expanded the observance to a full month in 1992. May is significant for Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. The first Japanese immigrants arrived in the US in early May of 1843. And some 25 years later, Chinese immigrants played a key role in the laborious construction of the transcontinental railroad. Completed in May 1869, the rail line linked the Midwest and Eastern US with the Pacific coast....

The camera might be small, but it’s very capable. And it can be made even better by the addition of filters. There are neutral density (ND) filters that act like sunglasses for your drone, allowing you to capture cinematic shots or take amazing long exposure photos, or there are wide-angle lens that allow you to capture even more of the scene. Also: The 5 best surveillance drones But fitting filters is fiddly, and the camera is relatively fragile, so it’s a good idea to take things slowly and carefully....

With the help of MacOS Network Locations, you can assign specific configurations for specific networks (or locations) and even define a particular network you want to connect to within a location. Let me show you how it works....

Once you have that server up and running, you’ll find it does a great job of helping your teams work together. But what if I told you that you could easily make it even more powerful?

The problem is, not every photo or video is good. Duplicates and blurry shots are commonplace (here are tips on taking fewer blurry photos), and most people don’t delete them immediately, leaving that task for some point in the future. Also: How to buy more iPhone storage But trawling through thousands of photos and videos in the photo library is not most people’s idea of fun, which is why the photo library grows and grows and grows until it gets out of control and people end up buying a new iPhone with more storage space....

I love those things, and the one attached to my keys has saved me no end of frustration trying to find my misplaced keys. But the AirTag is a disk, and you can’t attach it directly to your keys without some kind of holder. Apple makes no end of holders. Overpriced holders. Enter the KeySmart Air.
