Our sponsor, IDrive, wanted to warn you about this and share five ways you can spot the red flags of a fake email. That way, you won’t fall victim to ransomware. Here’s what you should look for: 1.

According to the bean counters at IDC, more than one billion smartphones were shipped during all of 2013. That’s up from 725 million in 2012. More importantly, 47% of all phones sold in 2012 were smartphones, whereas last year that figure hit 55%. Put another way, it’s safe to say that smartphones became mainstream devices in 2013. Who are the biggest smartphone makers? In order, it’s Samsung with 31% of the market, Apple with 15%, Huawei, LG, and Lenovo each have between 4% and 5%, and then “others” make up nearly 40% of the market....

SkyLight Scope, Use Your iPhone to Capture Stunning Microscope Stills But now, it’s the iPhone’s turn to move from being a simple enjoyable object that people use to connect with each other to something more. Andy Mill, the creator of this interesting Kickstarter project, must have had a passion for microbiology because he came up with the idea of creating an adapter that can simply connect smartphones to microscopes. What Skylight actually does is superimpose the smartphone’s camera on the microscope’s eyepiece, thus enabling the production of a video recording or of taking a photograph through the lens....

Apart from a plethora of Android related announcements, Google also announced that it would soon be rolling out a new software update for the Chromecast that would enable Android users to mirror their device screen to the TV. To make sure that there was no noticeable lag in mirroring the content, Google developed a whole new format to avoid this problem. Sadly, native screen mirroring is going to be available to only the following devices at launch:...

Sony’s oft-leaked Z3 Compact, a device that’s still not quite official just yet, is apparently not the only compact device the manufacturer is working on, if a leaked user guide for a Sony-branded Bluetooth speaker is any indication. The user guide was originally found by TechTastic, and it outlines how a user might want to connect different devices to the Sony BSC10 Bluetooth speaker. One of those devices that offers support for the accessory is a “Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact....

However, since the 22nd of this month the tech giant Apple has sold and shipped millions of devices, but these iPhones, no matter how powerful, will not make history after X is released. In addition, the world continues to enjoy iOS 11 but not everything has been roses. Some apps, including Skype, are having problems. As several users propagated in the social networks, that the tech giant Microsoft’s Skype is not in conditions....

Asus stated earlier this year that it plans to release a smartwatch. The company would be an Android Wear partner when it announced its wearable OS. But beyond that, Asus has shared no official information. TechCrunch’s rumors indicate a September launch for Asus’s planned Android Wear model. What’s more, Mobile Syrup reports that the new wearable, code-named Robin, will be the thinnest Android Wear hardware available. But here’s the kicker: If TechCrunch’s sources are accurate....

Sony was among the first Android manufacturers to introduce a dedicated service for allowing users to unlock the bootloader on their devices. Now, the Japanese manufacturer has taken a step toward making the entire process of bootloader unlocking more easy and user-friendly, with a redesigned website. The actual process of unlocking the bootloader remains unchanged, and still includes selecting a device, requesting an unlock code, and entering some commands into a terminal....

Earlier this month, Sony announced that it was looking for beta testers in Sweden for its new ‘Concept for Android’ software. The beta program was only meant for Xperia Z3 owners, who once selected, would be given an option to install Sony’s new take on Android on their handset and play around with it. If you were bummed out that Sony limited this program to Z3 owners only in Sweden, here is some good news for you....

A prototype system known as SkullConduct selects up on the way sound waves change as they pass through a human’s skull. As we know that everyone’s skull is different, and the sound produced by a skull is also different, which means it could be also used as a form of biometric identification. Researchers at the University of Stuttgart, the University of Saarland and the Max Planck Institute for Informatics in Germany are working on a new system called SkullConduct, which is basically an authentication system that uses a bone conduction speaker and mic on the head to identify the user....

Let’s Go So let’s begin the game. Due to the size and nature of this publication, I am forced to narrow the scope of this article to only include the most prominent methods of attacks: Keeping the rules described in the previous article, the first step to a successful attack will often involve tricking an employee into performing some routine task. This is generally accomplished through an attachment to an e-mail containing some interesting information for the targeted employee (i....

The Japanese giant’s woes were driven primarily by its Vision Fund posting a ¥3.5 trillion loss, the biggest for the fund since it first began in 2017. The result for the vision fund stands in stark contrast to the ¥4.03 trillion profit announced for the year ending March 2021. That strong performance came largely off the back of gains from the then recently-listed Coupang and DoorDash, which provided unrealised valuation gains amounting to $25....

But apparently, the Harman/Kardon ition is capable of making even low bit-rate music files sound like high quality concertos. Since I collect mix tapes—yes, the digital kind— I love to stream music through services like Digitally Imported. I was curious about the capabilities of the software packed on this special edition hset. I pitted the two versions of the One against each other to hear if there is actually any difference between the two nearly-identical devices....

While big enterprises will benefit from the experience of an IT director with a dedicated technology team, smaller organisations might not have the financial resources to hire an IT manager, never mind a CIO. In these situations, it can be tough to know which tools to buy. Rather than tapping into the knowledge of an in-house IT executive who understands the market, many SMB management teams have to make their own technology spending decisions....
