7 habits of good security

Thank To HP for sent this eNewsletter to me.

Must read IT business eNewsletter

You might not think about it when you’re caught up browsing the web, shopping and interacting on social media, but you are the first line of defence to protect against cyber security risks. The power to be safe is in your hands and at your fingertips. Developing and maintaining good habits can make online activity much safer and more enjoyable for you and your colleagues.

The following seven good habits take only minutes to learn and are easy enough to incorporate into your daily computing.

1. Create strong passwords

Passwords are usually the first, and sometimes only, protection against unauthorised access. They are the keys to your online kingdom, so keep these guidelines in mind.

Make passwords long and complex to combat sophisticated criminal tools

Use a mix of upper and lower case alpha, numeric and special characters

Use a variety of passwords on different systems and sites

Change passwords regularly

Be cautious when allowing your computer or websites to ‘remember’ passwords

Since it can be difficult to remember a long, complex password, consider using a passphrase. For example, think of a phrase you can remember such as, “I love chocolate”. Replace some of the letters with numbers, special characters, and upper-case letters and you’ve got something like “!LoveChoc0l@te”. The more numbers and special characters you use, the harder it will be to crack your password. 

2. Lock your computer screen

You never know who might use your computer when you’re not around – friends, family or colleagues – so it’s important to lock your screen to prevent unauthorised access. In the office, a co-worker, guest or a service provider such as a cleaning crew might view or use your unattended computer. This is an easy way for private information to become public.

It only takes a few seconds to lock your PC. Just press the Ctrl+Alt+Delete keys and then select the option “Lock this computer”. For your smartphones and tablets, use the passcode feature, as these devices are just as vulnerable as your PC. 

3. Secure mobile devices from loss

While mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and laptops are loved for their mobility, this convenience can become a security risk. It’s easy to lose or misplace these devices, so be sure to:

Make a list of phone numbers and email addresses to report stolen or lost devices

Use a hardware cable lock for laptops or store it in a locked drawer

Keep smartphones and tablets on you when in public

Keep devices with you and never put them in your checked baggage when travelling

Lock devices out of sight if you must leave them in your car

4. Protect data on mobile devices and removable media

Mobile devices and removable media, such as USB drives, enable us to easily share and transport information, but can lead to the loss or misuse of data. Although it’s important to protect the actual devices themselves from loss, it’s equally important to protect the information they contain.

Turn on and accept automatic updates

Create regular backups of important data

Disable features you do not use

Erase all data before you discard, donate or give it away

Encrypt the information, if possible

Use anti-virus software and keep it up to date

5. Identify URLs before clicking

Simply stated: think before you click. A malicious website that looks like a legitimate one is a common method used by criminals. However, verifying the real destination is easy – just place your cursor over the displayed URL and the true destination will reveal itself with a small pop-up. Don’t click if it looks suspicious.

For URL shorteners like tinyurl.com and bit.ly, simply add a plus sign (+) to the end of the URL to display its true source. For QR codes, choose a reader app that allows you to preview the destination before opening the link. And when it comes to mobile apps and software, download from a trusted source, like Google Play, Microsoft.com or Java.com. 

6. Use public Wi-Fi safely

Public Wi-Fi is riskier than corporate or home Wi-Fi because you can’t determine its setup and security features. So, take extra precautions when using it.

Do not access sensitive personal accounts, such as financial accounts

Ensure websites use HTTPS and display a lock icon

Watch out for “shoulder surfing” from people and security cameras

Never use a public computer, such as one in a hotel lobby, to access personal information

Use only for general web browsing, e.g., weather forecasts and restaurant reviews

7. Think before you post to social media

Social media provides a convenient, fun way to stay in touch with friends and family. But be cautious about what you post. Understand both personal and business risks, and take the following precautions.

Always comply with the your company’s business conduct

Ask friends and family to keep your personal information private, including relationships

Be cautious about participating in games and surveys or clicking on links suggested by others

Review and update your social media privacy and security settings often

Use daily

Bad habits might die hard, but good habits can protect you from cyber threats. You are the first line of defence in protecting you, your colleagues and your devices against security risks. And as criminal methods and tactics are becoming more advanced, it’s more important than ever to establish and maintain good security habits.

Lisa Kelly : Five reasons growing SMEs cannot ignore the cloud

Trusted or not........

When a growing business cannot justify developing its in-house IT department, the cloud can deliver pay-as-you-go, access to skilled staff and flexibility. But can SME business leaders trust the cloud with
security and standardisation?


For many growing businesses, IT is seen as both an opportunity and a potential hindrance. Leaders in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) recognise that technology is critical to supporting growth, productivity and competitiveness. But high capital costs, access to scarce skills, and the retention of legacy IT systems often make it difficult to maximise the return on investment and benefits that modern technology offers.

Robert Sutter : 3 Methods To Ensure Strong Adventure Race Training

Perhaps adventure race training is something that you want to go about doing. If this is the case, I believe that there are many ways to make sure that you get the most out of the work you put forth. It's clear that your attention is going to be set on larger races in general but what can be done, on your part, in order to ensure success? There are many ways that this can be gone about and here are only 3 steps that can help you to get the most out of this level of training.

1. When engaged in adventure race training, make absolutely certain that you pace yourself as much as possible. These races typically last for a couple of hours, meaning that you're going to need all of the energy that you have in order to reach the end. So many novices seem to utilize everything from the get-go, which is a problem when they find themselves dawdling behind. Make sure that you pace yourself as you find yourself in events like Spartan Race; your body will thank you for it.

2. It is apparent that your diet is going to require a number of different nutrients. Some of these may prove to be more essential than others but I feel as though they all come together in order to create that much more effective of a regimen. Protein is one such example, as it is able to keep your muscles going. Carbohydrates are utilized for the sake of energy, each of them being able to help your body along as you start to become more and more involved in a given race.

3. You want to make sure that you're able to go about training without accidentally hurting yourself. I've seen people go about a number of runs in the past and it seemed like they returned with problems involving their legs. If it wasn't slight soreness at one point, it was an actual fracture at another. It's understandable that there's a level of vigor when it comes to preparation but even going about light jogs can ensure that your physical stature is not going to be put in jeopardy.

There is much work to associate with adventure race training and there are many steps to consider as well. Even though these are only a few, I'd like to think that they can come into play in order to help individuals from a physical standpoint. It seems like those who are new to on-foot racing may not know everything that there is to know about this physical activity. As long as you keep these steps in mind, though, you're only going to do your physical conditioning more favors.

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here,
My sunny one shines so sincere.
Sunny one so true, i love you.

Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet.
Sunny, thank you for the love you brought my way.
You gave to me your all and all.
Now i feel ten feet tall.
Sunny one so true, i love you.

Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see.
Sunny, thank you for the facts from a to c.
My life was torn like a windblown sand,
And the rock was formed when you held my hand.
Sunny one so true, i love you.

Sunny, thank you for the smile upon your face.
Sunny, thank you for the gleam that shows its grace.
You're my spark of nature's fire,
You're my sweet complete desire.
Sunny one so true, i love you.

Bond your internet speed with single box

Truffle By Mushroom Network


Kepada pembaca yang dihormati. Kata-Kata dari Karl van Gills, VP of IT, Pacific Capital Group


" Just drop the truffle into your network and experiance what it is like to have a large bandwidth pipe at a fraction of the cost. The Truffle is highly reliable, scalable and easy to use. "

Gambarajah diatas adalah salah satu cara untuk kite membuat ' lease line ' connection antara dua office ( contoh : antara HQ ke Branch ).

sekiranya kite tidak dapat menggunakan lease line IPVPN yang di sediakan oleh TM ( Telekom Malaysia ), kite boleh menggunakan solution in untuk membuat lease line via shared cloud ( VLL : virtual lease line ). Ini adalah salah satu product yang ada di pasaran.

Cost adalah salah satu punca untuk sesetengah organisasi untuk memilih TM IPVPN .


Summary for this product

The Truffle Broadband Bonding Network Appliance provides aggregated Internet connectivity to small and medium size businesses (SMBs) with heavy usage, enterprise offices, apartments, hotels, hospitals and other multi-tenant buildings via aggregating multiple Internet access lines for increased performance and reliability. With the Truffle, multiple DSL, cable modem or T1 services can be combined to provide higher speed and more reliable Internet access.

The Truffle provides a quick Return on Investment (ROI) and lower operating expenses. The total subscription costs of multiple Internet access lines are often substantially less than a single high-speed Internet access line of equivalent bandwidth, which makes Truffle ideal for SMBs and enterprise branch offices. The payback period on the investment is often less than 6 months. You can download an application scenarios and ROI analysis white-paper by clicking here.

Truffle is also a stateful firewall, bandwidth manager, traffic monitoring and traffic shaping appliance that is packed with cutting edge adaptive Quality of Service features - all in one box. Truffle is powered by our enterprise level operating software that is dependable, scalable, remotely manageable and field upgradable.

The Truffle combines multiple Internet access lines, each on a Gigabit Ethernet interface, into a single aggregated Internet access line, again on a Gigabit Ethernet interface. The aggregation over the Internet access lines is done even for a single session, providing the full aggregate speed. The Truffle supports aggregation of up to 4,5,8 or 12 Internet access lines and additional 2 cellular data cards. Each Internet access line may be through a DSL modem, cable modem, T1, MPLS, satellite modem, fractional DS3, DS3, fiber, cellular or any other broadband connection.

Features

Aggregated Point-to-multipoint Capacity - Truffle can peer over the Internet with other Truffle devices that has VLL server license (such as a head-quarter office and the branch offices). In this peered mode, all uplink and downlink traffic between the head-quarter office and branch office/colo location(s), including VPNs, will use the aggregated bandwidth of the combined Internet access links.

Link failure recovery - In case of Internet access line failures in one of the Internet access lines, VLL recovers the ongoing session by redistributing the load over the available access lines, even for the sessions in progress, without loss of data integrity.

Improved network reliability - Automatic failover protects against failures of one or more access link outages, as it will not cause failure of the aggregated access link as long as at least one access link is still active, resulting in less downtime for the connection between BBNA devices.

Transparent Installation - The existing Local Area Network in the head-quarter office or the branch office/colo does not require any changes. All the installation and configuration is handled through the BBNA user interface.

No coordination with ISP - No new equipment or software is necessary from the Internet Service Provider(s). A user-friendly web-based management interface is provided for quick and easy configuration and system monitoring.

Advanced QoS algorithms - All traffic routed through the TRUFFLE BBNA is intelligently managed to prioritize real-time traffic. Additionally a unique set of proprietary algorithms are implemented to improve traffic latency metrics.

DNS load balancing for inbound requests - TRUFFLE BBNA can be easily configured to provide Dynamic DNS load-balancing for inbound requests for internally hosted servers such as web-server, ftp-server, mail-server etc.

What Can Go Wrong With Cars

By Mike R Johnson


Owning an automobile means many things to many people. For some, it is merely a way to get from Point A to Point B. For others, it is a status symbol. To some people, it is the realization of a long wished-for dream. For yet others, it is a privilege they will never know. Owning a car is a big responsibility, and while it is a great thing, there are a lot of things that can go wrong. Here are some of the major things that can go wrong with your automobile.

Mechanical Problems

From a car's engine to its computer, there is a lot that can go wrong. Engine problems can be very expensive, and replacing the computer in a car can as well. Other problems like problems with the alternator, the carburetor, certain belts like the timing belt, and the radiator can be wildly expensive and almost always require a professional mechanic. For other things like a dead battery, low oil levels, and even things like brake pads, if you're mechanically inclined you can learn to do these things yourself. It is not difficult to replace the battery in a car, though some auto supply stores, if you buy the new battery from them, will change your battery and dispose of the old one for free. Some people choose to do their oil changes themselves, while others go to either the car dealer or a free-standing lube shop to get this simple procedure performed on their car.

Keeping up with the required and suggested maintenance on your vehicle will go a long way toward protecting your car from costly problems that require repair. Keep the fluid levels in check, get the oil changed (or change it yourself) every three thousand miles, and make sure you have your tires rotated once per year. Also, maintain the proper air pressure in your tires. It will not only extend the life of the tire, but will also save money in fuel costs.

Theft and Vandalism

Sometimes, even if you take great care of your car, things can go wrong. Your car can be vandalized in public parking lots or even parked outside your home, and some cars are frequently stolen. To protect against vandalism and theft, the best thing you can do is to install a quality car alarm. This will scare off would-be vandals and thieves, and as long as you turn it off if the neighborhood cat sets it off, your neighbors won't hate you.

Accidents

Even the best drivers can get into a car accident. While one person is following traffic laws and staying alert and responsive on the road, another is applying mascara, text messaging, or simply not paying attention and an accident can occur. Making sure your car has the proper safety features is the most important thing you can do to prepare for a potential accident. Another thing that is necessary is that drivers and passengers wear their seatbelts at all times. In the event of an accident, the second most worrisome thing (after the threat of injury) is cost. It is important to make sure you have the proper auto insurance coverage so that, even if an accident does not physically lost you an arm and a leg, it does not do so metaphorically either.
