Experts in computer security from the company Mcafee warning when a new version of the malware Panda, also known as Fujacks. However, experts believe that this time the virus can not shoot just as many computers as three years ago, when Panda made much noise infitsyrovav millions of computers (mainly in China).
IBM Corp. has begun testing a system for automatic translation n.Fluent, which is called in the background to translate documents, web pages and even replicas of instant messaging, says CNET news. You can use the system on desktop computers, laptops and even smartphones.
In the test involved about 400 thousand employees of IBM in 170 countries.
It is assumed that the system n.Fluent the extent of its use and training translates texts are better. Only two weeks during the summer testing of volunteers sent to processing around 1.3 million words.
Physics managed to take another step on the road to create a new generation of electronic devices, called spintronykoy. It is planned that similar devices koduvatymetsya not only electrical signals, but the electron spin, their constituents. Research article appeared in the journal Nature, and its brief cites SCIENCENOW.
In the study scientists were able to create a flow of electrons from a polarized spin in silicon at room temperature. This plate for semiconductor causing a thin layer of aluminum oxide, after which the top was napylenyy nickel electrode.
Carsten Nol, a member of the German group hakreskoyi CCC (Chaos Computer Club), which officially is a researcher at the California firm H4rdw4re, which focuses on computer security plans to the end of the year to break the encryption algorithm in networks GSM.
Each of the phones in the GSM network is assigned a secret key by which the device is recognized system. When you call this key is used to create limited-session key, which are all encrypted conversation. It expects to break him and Nol.
For this, he wrote a program with an open architecture, which should unite the 80 computers in the network pirinhovuyu. By calculating the researcher, these resources should be enough for hacking, but because detsentralizovannosti pirinhovyh data networks, information that one day hit there would be virtually impossible to destroy.
By Microsoft found that cases of piracy in information technology over the past two years has doubled. It threatens the security of computers, since most counterfeit programs infected with viruses.
Moreover, argues David Finn, who heads the department at Microsoft to fight piracy, pirates often use the original software code and packaging simulating software software giant.
Finn, as reported by Interfax, adding that "software piracy is becoming more sophisticated, unlike that someone just otkopiroval installation files to disk.
But while, as reported Ruformator, recently one of the top managers, John Bess during the presentation of Windows 7 in the Philippines said that piracy is no longer pose a serious threat to the company. According to him, the presence in the market many unlicensed copies of products is a problem for users rather than for the manufacturer.
