POPSThe Next Hacking Frontier: Your Brain? As neural engineering becomes more complex and more widespread, the potential for security breaches will mushroom. For example, the next generation of implantable devices to control prosthetic limbs will likely include wireless controls that allow physicians to remotely adjust settings on the machine. If neural engineers don’t build in security features such as encryption and access control, an attacker could hijack the device and take over the robotic limb.

POPSThe Genetic Early Adopters Knome is at the forefront of the push toward so-called personalized medicine. Scientists and physicians hope that when sequencing costs come down enough, genetic analysis will become a ubiquitous part of health care, helping doctors choose the best treatments for a specific patient, or helping individuals take steps to prevent diseases for which they are at risk.

POPSHiding Files in Jpg Images (jpeg) You will find a Video Tutorial for the complete explanation... #1 Gather your image and the files you wish to lodge into it. Here I have a meeting.txt which which I will slap inside my secret.jpg #2 Add the files you want to hide into a new RAR archive #3 Open Command Prompt #4 Go to the folder where your files are located, in this case 'C:\hidden' #5 Type 'copy /b secret.jpg + meeting.txt.rar lizard.jpg' where secret.jpg is the original picture, meeting.txt.rar is the file to be hidden, and lizard.jpg is the file which contains both. #6 Test the JPG by opening it, and verifying it still opens. If it does, try opening the file with WinRar! #7 The completed RAR file! #8 Here is the image I created when making this tutorial!

POPSA Sane Voice from Security Expert Similarly, I appreciate an open network when I am otherwise without bandwidth. If someone were using my network to the point that it affected my own traffic or if some neighbor kid was dinking around, I might want to do something about it; but as long as we're all polite, why should this concern me? Pay it forward, I say.

POPSLondon Is The World's WiFi Capital A cool detail: home network users are more security-savvy than companies. 90% of Londoners have encrypted their home networks, but only 80% of corporations.

POPSDizzler - All in 1 Mediaplayer Online - TOP!
Dizzler free downloadable application allows users to search online and play free music, videos, games, and radio stations on their desktop or mobile device. Our goal is to create a place where media creators and users can come together and share their passion. We want our members to be able to enjoy all of the free media content on the web as safely and easily as possible without any SPYWARE, ADWARE or storage constraints. All you need is access to the internet and our free media player. Where does the music, video and games come from? When you make a search, Dizzler only returns publicly available content from the Internet. Dizzler’s technology indexes and then encrypts in-line links to 3rd party websites that publicly host media using the same standards and practices as the major search engines (Google, Yahoo). This encryption prevents Dizzler users from accessing the actual paths to content in order to thwart inappropriate downloading, copying or sharing of files.

POPSScroogle: An introduction and micro-review As mentioned in a previous rant, here it is in the flesh. every person I have turned on to this has continued to use it, and with good cause. Its most obvious advantages are that it is simplistic and unbiased. Unlike serach engines from the Google family where the highest bidders appear on the first page. But it doesn't stop there, this is truly anonomous searching and surfing that to a large extent ignore ads, has multi-browser support (support for safari is near completion if not already done) and has a toggle button for when encryption is required. As with all open source stuff if you like it then support it... or don't.

POPSAirport Express Configuration My Airport Express was blinking amber and I could not get it to rejoin my LAN. Here's what I discovered and it works like a charm. You need to make sure that you select WPA2 for both devices and encryption type "WPA2 Only". Then, if your "express" is showing up on the WDS page of the Airport Admin Utility - DELETE IT and then search for it again with the "+" sign. Then just follow the next window's instructions and remember to change the password from "public". Good luck!
