It uses a variety of communication protocols—including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Web real-time communication (WebRTC), and near-field communication (NFC)—to send files between compatible devices that are in close proximity to each other.

IoT offers many opportunities, but with these opportunities come various challenges. This article identifies the main challenges for IoT, like security vulnerabilities, interoperability difficulties, and data handling issues. We’ll also suggest ways to overcome these obstacles.

Yes, it is possible for someone to hack your home WiFi.

Continue reading to learn how your home WiFi can be compromised, the signs of a hacked WiFi router, the steps to take if you get hacked and effective measures to prevent your home WiFi from getting hacked.

In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, the need for dynamic security measures is critical. Due to Windows’s current architecture and design, security products running in the platform, particularly those involved in endpoint protection, require kernel access to provide the highest level of visibility, enforcement and tamper-resistance, while meeting the strict performance envelopes demanded by large enterprise clients.

Few ad campaigns have ever had such a long-lasting impact as the iconic ‘I’m a Mac/I’m a PC’ commercials that ran in the mid-aughts.

One of the most common ways for attackers to slip into a corporate network is by compromising the username and password of a legitimate user account. Usernames are typically trivial to guess because they follow an established standard in a given organization, such as FirstnameLastname@domain.com. Unfortunately, compromising basic passwords is also surprisingly easy for threat actors today. For example, they can run a program that tries out various potential passwords for a particular user account.

Australia's business leaders face a complex and rapidly evolving market landscape that is highly competitive, globally interconnected, and demands a proactive approach to risk management.
