IT Security – Do it the hard or easy way!

IT Security – Do it the hard or easy way!

Jun 13, 2015
Whether you are a one-stop-shop IT guy or a network admin on a large IT team you owe it to yourself to learn about Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) technology. Why? SIEM lets you correlate between events recorded in different logs for related systems. This is significant because attackers often exploit multiple vulnerabilities on separate but connected systems. For a complete picture of what's going on in your network, look beyond the network itself to correlate events in applications, databases, and middleware. With today's distributed applications, the challenge of troubleshooting more routine failures or slowdowns is not so different. The breakdown often lies in the connection between two systems, rather than in one or the other. What makes a good SIEM tool different from all other management and monitoring tools you have is its breadth. SolarWinds Log & Event Manager is a powerful SIEM tool that pulls together logs from virtually every s

Do You also want to Hack Facebook Account of your Girlfriend?

Jun 13, 2015
We at The Hacker News get a lot of requests via emails and messages from people who want to hack into someone else's Facebook account or Gmail account or break into somebody's network. However, 80 to 90 percent requests we receive every day are from people who want to hack into their girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or husband's Facebook account in order to read their private conversations and reveal their secret relationships, if any. Even though we strongly deny any such requests because accessing someone else's account without their knowledge or permission is a crime… ...but there are demands from people – those cheated by their love, betrayal of trust, driven by greed or revenge – to break into the Facebook accounts of other people. So, what about Hiring a Hacker? As money could buy everything, a service received a lot of popularity earlier this year – even featured on the front page of the New York Times – claims to connect these needy people to professional
GenAI: A New Headache for SaaS Security Teams

GenAI: A New Headache for SaaS Security Teams

Apr 17, 2024SaaS Security / AI Governance
The introduction of Open AI's ChatGPT was a defining moment for the software industry, touching off a GenAI race with its November 2022 release. SaaS vendors are now rushing to upgrade tools with enhanced productivity capabilities that are driven by generative AI. Among a wide range of uses, GenAI tools make it easier for developers to build software, assist sales teams in mundane email writing, help marketers produce unique content at low cost, and enable teams and creatives to brainstorm new ideas.  Recent significant GenAI product launches include Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, and Salesforce Einstein GPT. Notably, these GenAI tools from leading SaaS providers are paid enhancements, a clear sign that no SaaS provider will want to miss out on cashing in on the GenAI transformation. Google will soon launch its SGE "Search Generative Experience" platform for premium AI-generated summaries rather than a list of websites.  At this pace, it's just a matter of a short time befo
I keep 200+ Browser Tabs Open, and My Computer Runs Absolutely Fine. Here’s My Secret.

I keep 200+ Browser Tabs Open, and My Computer Runs Absolutely Fine. Here's My Secret.

Jun 12, 2015
I don't know about your part, but I make heavy use of tabs. I currently have 200+ tabs open in my Google Chrome Web browser. And sometimes the number is even more. For me it's a daily thing, as I regularly open new tabs because of my habit of reading lots of stuff online, including cyber security updates, hacking news, knowledgeable articles of various categories, new recipes to cook something delicious and, of course, funny viral videos. Browsers — Everything for us, But Biggest Memory Eaters! I think you'll agree with me when I say: It's really hard to manage so many tabs on Chrome — and Firefox too. But worse still is the obstruction in the performance of your computer, as the tabs continue to run background processes and feed on your system's memory. It gets difficult to sort through them, everything slows down, and sometimes it crashes the browser itself. Doesn't it? But, I really don't face any issue while surfing on 200+ tabs at one time

Google has recently announced its latest version of the mobile operating system called Android M at its official Google I/O 2015 developer event May 28 in San Francisco.
