Google introduced Chrome Tab Groups in mid-2020 with version 83, nearly two years after its software engineers started working on the feature. Since then it has worked on expandable tab groups, and the latest improvement to the feature is an option to save tab groups for future use. Tab Groups acknowledges that people are using tabs across multiple web apps, including Google Workspace apps and Microsoft Office 365 apps, and whatever else is needed for work and play....

First reported by Reuters, the rules mandate that operators disclose any hacks, create cyberattack recovery programs and name a chief cyber official. The Transportation Security Administration will manage the regulations, Mayorkas added. He said the regulations would go into effect by the end of the year. “Whether by air, land, or sea, our transportation systems are of utmost strategic importance to our national and economic security. The last year and a half has powerfully demonstrated what’s at stake,” Mayorkas said, according to Reuters....

The two zero-day vulnerabilities affect Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, 2016, and 2019, Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) has warned, after the exploits were disclosed by researchers at Vietnamese cybersecurity firm GTSC. One (CVE-2022-41040) is a is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability, an exploit that allows attackers to make server-side application requests from an unintended location – for example, allowing them to access internal services without being within the perimeter of the network....

Then, of course, there was the issue of Internet Explorer itself, which was a terrible product housing a never-ending collection of insecure code and bugs that caused countless issues. This was all exacerbated when Netscape fell off the face of the planet and was replaced by Firefox. At first, the new open-source browser looked as though it would send IE packing. It was a solid entry in the browser space and people loved it....

The contract is a whole-of-government head agreement, under which agencies enter into their own contracts for supply of IT goods and services. Given that the head agreement is a standing offer with no commitments on expenditure, there is no prescribed contract value. The original contract was signed in the fourth quarter of 2019. This is now considered year two of a five-year contract, which has also expanded from the provision of IBM technology to include the option to procure IBM professional services and IBM cloud services such as public cloud and SaaS....

“Within minutes of installation, the platform lets administrators add or delete applications, update system software over the air, and monitor the health of devices spread across vast distances,” the company said. Nvidia VP and GM of enterprise and edge computing Justin Boitano said Fleet Command can turn any Nvidia certified server into a “secure edge AI system”. When combined with its recently launched Base Command product, Nvidia said it now offers an end-to-end process from AI model creation to production....

James said her office was releasing a guide for businesses on how they can deal with credential stuffing attacks, noting that the practice has “quickly become one of the top attack vectors online.” The 17 businesses affected include well-known online retailers, restaurant chains, and food delivery services. The FBI said last year that credential stuffing attacks – which involve repeated, automated attempts to access online accounts using usernames and passwords stolen from other online services – have been used to compromise 50,000 online bank accounts since 2017....

Whistic – which created a network for assessing, publishing and sharing vendor security information – will work with tech companies like Okta, Airbnb, Zendesk, Asana, Atlassian, Snap, Notion, TripActions and G2 on The Security First Initiative. The initiative seeks to combat third-party data breaches by using Whistic Profiles as a standard for assessing and sharing cybersecurity details. “Just like Asana believes collaboration and transparency between internal teams are mission-critical, we also believe it’s mission-critical to establish transparent and trusted relationships with our customers and third-party vendors,” said Sean Cassidy, head of security at Asana....

The caveat to using client-based solutions is that they are only available to those users with access to the machines the software is installed upon. If you have a home office or a small business, where you need to give multiple users access to those client-based tools, you must either go with the open-source option (LibreOffice) or pay for enough licenses for a proprietary solution. That can get costly and timely to install on every computer....

The bill authored by congressman André Figueiredo outlined a series of concerns around the decision by president Jair Bolsonaro, which established the rules and guidelines for data sharing between authorities and public sector bodies and created a single personal data repository for Brazil’s over 200 million citizens with information ranging from voice to gait. “The centralization of personal data the government wants to put into practice can make such information very vulnerable and accidentally, or unlawfully, cause the destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or even unauthorized access to such personal data,” the congressman stated....

It still supports the full range of hypervisors you’re likely to have on local, hosted or cloud infrastructure (Hyper-V, vSphere, Nutanix and Scale Computing), but the latest version of Parallels RAS adds support for AWS EC2 to its existing Azure Virtual Desktop integration, with autoscaling as well as cost control options that are even more important for cloud services that bill by usage. This functionality is presented in a friendly graphical interface with wizards, dropdowns and checkboxes to guide you through common tasks whether you’re using local or cloud infrastructure, making the more powerful features accessible to even less experienced admins who may not be confident working in cloud portals or relying on the command line....

In a number of states, both now and expected in the coming weeks, providing abortion healthcare services will be made illegal, or so restricted they will be almost impossible to obtain. Concerns have now been raised over period tracking apps’ data practices and security, and what their use could mean for those able to get pregnant in the future. The message is simple: You should stop using them. As warned by Professor Gina Neff, you should “delete every digital trace of any menstrual tracking....

The main goal of the push to bring Rust to Linux is to wipe out an entire class of memory-related security bugs in the kernel, which is a key part of the internet’s infrastructure, running on everything from servers to edge devices and smartphones. Historically, key Linux drivers that make up the kernel have been written in C, which is not memory-safe whereas Rust is; as Microsoft has highlighted, 70% of all bugs it fixes are memory-related....

There’s been no change in the order or make up of the top four languages in RedMonk’s ranking since the first of its biannual rankings from March. There’s also been almost no change in the rankings of the top 20, which are based on the number of projects on GitHub and discussions held on developer forum StackOverflow. The rankings are an approximation of popularity that aim to help developers spot emerging trends in languages....

CNET calls LastPass “A leading password manager with a changing value proposition”, and for good reason, but it is actually much more than just that. It also allows you to store digital records and notes such as insurance cards, membership info, WiFi passwords and more. It will even monitor the Dark Web and alert you if your personal information is ever at risk. However, as a password manager, it reigns supreme....

Qualcomm’s Flight RB5 5G Platform aims to accelerate development for commercial, enterprise and industrial drones as well as edge computing. Target use cases include entertainment, security, delivery, defense, inspection and mapping....

It seems natural, therefore, that experts in the field would increasingly turn their attention to whether quantum computers could provide solutions to one of the greatest challenges of our time: climate change. Unlike the classical computers that we are most familiar with, quantum computers are built to leverage the strange laws of quantum physics. Engineers are still figuring out how to do this on a large scale, meaning that quantum computers, for now, are of limited use; but it is expected that when a fully-fledged device is built, it will come with exponential compute power and will be able to rapidly solve problems that would otherwise require impossible amounts of time and computing resources, even for the most powerful supercomputers....

Those who want a larger frame and a different lens color should consider the Ray-Ban brown gradient Andrea Square sunglasses, which used to be priced at $186 and are now $92. All Ray-Bans have 100% UV protection and come with a case and lens cloth. At a slightly higher price point, but still under $100, of course, are the Ray-Ban Erika Round sunglasses. These have a lens width of 54 millimeters, so they’re not as large as the Andrea Square model....
