seeing someone working two devices simultaneously. Individuals and organizations
are responding to the capabilities and flexibility that mobile devices provide.

Darlene Storm: Cracking smart house devices & pwning thousands of PCs via VNC remote access


Pen testers cracked the security of every IoT device within a smart house.
Other researchers scanned the Internet and grabbed 30,000 screenshots in an hour

usernames and use a strong password.

INSIDER: SDS still young, but very much on the rise

of attention these days. Security is no exception. Software-defined security
(SDS) is an emerging model in which information security is deployed, controlled
and managed by software.
