The US alone had nearly 500,000 available cybersecurity positions in March 2021. Veterans from all military branches and career fields bring a wealth of skills and attributes to the table. These characteristics include leadership skills, teamwork, integrity, and maintaining composure under pressure. But veterans face challenges in entering the civilian workforce. Hurdles include networking with civilian job contacts and translating military experience and skills to civilian language and roles. If you’re a veteran, know someone who is, or are in a position to hire people for information technology or cybersecurity jobs, continue reading for guidance on how veterans can connect with civilian IT and cybersecurity opportunities....

Korea’s capital since 1392, and its surrounding province, houses approximately half the country’s 50 million people and most regulatory, educational and cultural assets: It is sometimes dubbed “The Republic of Seoul.” Although located at the center of the peninsula – “the belly button of Korea” – Seoul lies just 35 miles from the frontier with North Korea. In 2004, Korea enacted, under reformist president Roh Moo-hyun (in power from 2003-2008) the “Special Act for Balanced National Development” to relocate governmental resources outside Seoul....

“Google has explicitly and repeatedly instructed its employees to shield important business communications from discovery by using false requests for legal advice,” DOJ attorneys wrote in a court filing for its search monopoly lawsuit against Google. According to the court filing [PDF], Google taught employees to slap an attorney-client privilege label and generic “request” for counsel’s advice label on any sensitive business communications that Google might wish to shield from discovery....

Google’s researchers also noted that 2021 has been a particularly active year for in-the-wild zero-day attacks. So far this year, 33 zero-day exploits used in attacks have been publicly disclosed — 11 more than the total number from 2020. Google attributes some of the uptick in zero-days to greater detection and disclosure efforts, but said the rise is also due to the proliferation of commercial vendors selling access to zero-day vulnerabilities as compared to the early 2010s....

It’s tried several – mostly successful – ways of entertaining you to buy its Pixel phones. But when you’re on a roll, it’s hard to control and direct your ribald enthusiasm. The company’s latest amusement is a mellifluously voiced mockery of Apple and the legend that is Jony Ive. Also: Want to see just how bad Google Chrome is? Try this simple trick! To sell you its Pixel 5a, Google offers up two minutes of hypnotic English talk, just as Apple used to do whenever it launched a new product....

Initially reported on the GooglePixel subreddit forum by /u/KitchenPictures5849, the user said in a thread that the bug arose whenever a call was made to 911, which would lead to their Pixel device freezing. According to Google, it appears the glitch is due to the Microsoft Teams app being installed on Pixel devices after it conducted an investigation into the matter. The spokesperson said the bug only occurred for Pixel devices running Android 10 or above, whenever Microsoft Teams was installed but an account was not logged into the app....

Dubbed Grace Hopper after the computer science pioneer who among many other things helped design the COBOL programming language, the subsea cable uses new optical fiber switching to boost capacity. Google funded the subsea 16-fibre pair cable that connects New York to Bude, Cornwall, about 250 miles south of London, and Bilbao on Spain’s Atlantic north coast. It will also support Google’s new cloud region in Madrid. SEE: Is remote working good or bad?...

The logistics space represents a huge opportunity for tech companies, and for Google in particular. Many fleet operators have workflows desperately in need of an update – with some relying on just pen and paper. Even before the pandemic, retailers and shippers were hard-pressed to keep up with the growing demand for same-day and next-day deliveries. Tech vendors have offered solutions like platforms for crowd-sourcing drivers, as well as deploying autonomous deliveries with rolling robots and drones....

Google’s KataOS is written “almost entirely in Rust”, the programming language that’s been adopted by the Android Open Source Project and the Linux kernel project. “KataOS is also implemented almost entirely in Rust, which provides a strong starting point for software security, since it eliminates entire classes of bugs, such as off-by-one errors and buffer overflows,” explains Google’s open-source team, which is building intelligent ambient machine-learning (AmbiML) systems. Also: These three tech skills could help recession-proof your career, say bosses The project’s GitHub page emphasizes that KataOS and its umbrella project name, Sparrow, “are definitely a work in progress”....

Many SMBs have successfully navigated through uncertain times and have adjusted, readying themselves for future growth. Here are the four high-level themes and insights of the SMB Trends 2021 report: Here are 10 important takeaways of the 2021 Small and Medium Business Trends report: To learn more about the Small and Medium Business Trends Report, you can visit here....

First detailed in December, the vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228) allows attackers to remotely execute code and gain access to systems that use Log4j, a widely used Java logging library. The ubiquitous nature of Log4j meant cybersecurity agencies urged organisations globally to apply security updates as quickly as possible, but months on from disclosure, many are still vulnerable to the flaw. According to cybersecurity researchers at Symantec, one of those companies that was still vulnerable was an undisclosed engineering firm that works in the energy and military sectors....

Samsung, in particular, managed to do it most elegantly in order to turn its brand toward a higher purpose. But, though there may no longer be so many lines of the faithful and mindless outside Apple stores on iPhone launch days, unreasonable Cupertinian devotion still exists. I judge this from the most delightfully deranged, wonderfully composed, and realistically uplifting (for some) idea concocted by Relay FM co-founder Stephen Hackett. On his new Kickstarter site, he freely confesses: “I’ve got a collection of over 150 Macs, and that’s not counting the iPods, iPhones, iPads, and other weird products the company has launched over the years....

In Madrid, Spain, Salesforce and Accenture hosted a special roundtable that explored likely scenarios and the roles we can play in driving economic and societal recovery and progress. As someone who works in human-centered innovation, I joined economist Linda Yueh to share our respective outlooks regarding the impact of the global pandemic on the economy, businesses, and human behavior. Following is a summary of that conversation, including observations that can help leaders drive meaningful change in a post-pandemic economy....

On Thursday, High Fidelity announced an investment in Linden Research, Inc. (Linden Lab) to scale Second Life’s popular virtual world further. Philip Rosedale, the founder of both companies who is considered a metaverse pioneer, said he would be rejoining Second Life as a strategic advisor to aid in the expansion. “No one has come close to building a virtual world like Second Life,” Rosedale said in a statement. “Second Life has managed to create both a positive, enriching experience for its residents – with room for millions more to join – and built a thriving subscription-based business at the same time....
