Richard III - bound and thrown in the unfinished tomb - Aftenposten

Researchers at the University of Leicester found last year that they thought was the grave of English King Richard III (1452 – 1485) under a car park in Leicester. In February came the confirmation that it was indeed the historical king who lay in the grave. DNA taken from the bones match the DNA of the king’s descendants.


No honorary funeral

Richard III reigned as king over the last two years of his life. The Present, and not least by the time that largely knows him through Shakespeare’s description in his drama “Richard III” from about 1592, has the king as very inconsiderate. Among other things he should have done away with close family to secure the throne.

Less ruthless enough was not his enemy and slayer Henry Tudor, later known as King Henry 7 At the end of an over 30-year long civil war state in England, known as the Wars of the Roses, they met on the battlefield of Bosworth Field. Here, August 22, 1485, fell King Richard III. Henry Tudor brought the corpse bare to Leicester and put it on display to the horror of residents.

When the body after a few days would be buried there was simply no ceremony with pomp and circumstance, as a dead king would normally receive. Rather the opposite. The graves were dug quickly and unfinished, the BBC today, probably because his body was starting to disintegrate so that a sudden hurry to get it in the ground.


Bound hands

The latest report from scientists now tell more in detail about how the funeral should have happened. Admittedly, he was buried in the chancel of the Church Greyfriars (later demolished and the space that is now a parking lot), but which also stopped the credit. His body was hoisted into an all too brief grave feet first. The head and upper body did not fit, but had to lean against the wall tomb. The body was lying as it fell. King had no chest, yes not even a shroud. The hands were crossed, but hardly because they were so arranged in a sort of dignified pose. The reason was that his hands were bound, according to the researchers.


Tudor house

Henry VII was therefore not a Sunday school teacher he could. But he established the so-called Tudor house by marrying Elizabeth of York. He ruled England until his death in April 1509. When he was succeeded by his son Henry VIII – king including beheaded two of his six wives.

- Haswell will provide 50 percent better battery life - Technology Magazine

class=”label”> Published: 24 May 2013 at. 2:56 p.m.

Processor giant Intel has not the habit to make big promises about their new products ahead of the launch, but the performance will be improved and power consumption is lower.

Better Battery

Now Intel architecture Chief Rani Borkar all speak out and said that Haswell chips will give laptops to 50 percent better battery life than their corresponding Ivy Bridge chips.

And it shall come to pass without any performance loss, says Borkar according to Computerworld.

reduction in consumption will occur as a result of a dedicated power management unit in the chip that constantly supplied and adjusts power consumption in all parts of the chip as needed.

The preliminary number one in our battery tests are HP’s business ultrabook Folio 9470M, which was the result of the test program Power Mark of seven hours and 27 minutes. It could mean that a similar machine with Haswell chip approaching 12 hours of battery life.

The new Core chips have a maximum power consumption (TDP, actually a term for the cooling load) as low as 7 watts, and it means that they will be suitable in tablets.

Borkar says that Haswell processor will give the same battery life as a non-Intel chip, but better performance than has been common in tablet meant for content consumption.

doubled graphics performance

Intel has talked most about Haswell graphics performance. The integrated graphics chip will in fact give a doubling in performance on laptops, and up to triple performance on desktops.

It should of course be said that the graphics performance of Intel’s Core chips so far has not been much, but with a doubling in performance, they will be able to compete with a good number of dedicated chips.

Intel has announced that it will launch Haswell chips at the Computex trade show in Taiwan 4 June.

The board was an instant success for those who prefer to read their books in the original language. Later that year, Kindle localized in both the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Here in Norway, however, the Kindle had to fight against the current. The reason has obviously been that there has been precious little of Norwegian or Norwegian translated literature to find on Amazon. Another reason is the cumbersome Norwegian literature, politics who would have wanted to sell their own tablets and payment systems.

Apple gets tax thrashing in U.S. - digi.no

ad

An investigation conducted by the U.S. Congress shows that Apple’s creative tax planning has evaded staggering 44 billion dollars, almost 260 billion from tax in the U.S. over the past four years. Now, Apple’s management stand trial and explain their tax moves in a Congressional hearing.

Financial Times and numerous other media reviews the elusive matter became known Monday. When Congress announced a 40-page long report with the results of its review. In the report, the Financial Times has posted on its website, states that Apple has used a variety of tax gaps to save taxes on their huge incomes.

– Apple has applied for tax hole the “holy grail “. They have established foreign companies that hold tens of billions of dollars, stating that they are not taxable anywhere says Democrat Carl Levin, who will lead the hearing, told the Financial Times.

The review of the U.S. Congress has found no offense to the way Apple has dealt with international tax rules. But criticism is loose at Levin:

– The definition of a tax hole is that it can comply with the letter of the law but not statutory intent, says Levin told the newspaper and attributes:

– I’ve never seen anything like it, and we do not know of anyone who has seen anything like it.

One of the conditions the Committee has identified the use of the Irish-registered company Apple Sales International . This company alone had sales revenue of 74 billion dollars from 2009 to 2012. They will hardly have paid tax on this. They had a surplus of $ 22 billion in 2011 but paid just $ 10 million in taxes, or 0.05 percent.

Another company, which is listed without any tax belonging nowhere, Apple Operations International (AOI). This company reportedly had revenues of $ 30 billion between 2009 and 2012. They have not paid any taxes, they should not have had any employees or physical presence in the United States, although the meetings allegedly held der.Apple shall, according to survey, also signed a special treaty with Ireland. The tax rate was, ihenhold the agreement, reduced from 12 percent to 2 percent.

This is criticism that stings for Apple. As digi.no wrote earlier, several European countries are very interested in the IT giant’s tax position and is highly critical of how they are using tax havens and loopholes are able to minimize the tax burden.

Apple believes that they have done everything by the book. They deny that AOI is a shell company that is only set up to escape tax rules, but they are channeling the international capital flow to the company. Therefore, they are not liable to tax in the United States.

Hearings, beginning today Monday, will review this in detail.

For the first time Tim Cook respond separately for U.S. Congress as CEO of Apple. The U.S. IT giant, according to news agency Reuters announced that they will propose new tax rules for sales made outside the United States are taxed. The question is whether Apple is in a good position to claim the tax leniency.

Today, more technology companies, with major international revenues, not to “flag” the profits home. In fact, Apple must take out loans to pay dividends and repurchase shares. Instead pickled money down on offshore offices around around the world. Of Apples box of 145 billion dollars is more than 100 billion in accounts outside the U.S., reports Reuters.

investigations that the U.S. Congress has initiated does not just Apple. Also, Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard have to explain his tax practice for the politicians.

Flickr would, however, prove to be not as dead as many would think. Yesterday relieved Yahoo! veil for a complete overhaul of the image service with a completely new design and the whole 1TB of free storage as well as video images.

– We want Flickr to blow your mind again, saying Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer, at a press conference in New York on Monday night, according to TheNextWeb.

New design, same features

Flickr is reconditioned almost beyond recognition, but not necessarily in a bad way. Gone are most of the white gaps and unnecessary text, now meet you rather than with a stream of images that take up the entire screen. It is reminiscent of the tiles from Windows 8 or Pinterest.

Profile pages have also been given a new look with cover images in the style of Facebook and Google+.

Flickr simply looks more like a social photo sharing service anno 2013. Otherwise, most of the old functionality in place, both in terms of search and display of images.

You can comment on photos or peek at the EXIF ??data if you wish. The only difference is that the picture is much bigger than before. Image upload functions as before, and you can easily upload multiple images at a time – for example by using drag & drop.

Most storage?

As noted increased storage to 1TB, which according to Flickr to make it possible to store 537 731 images at 6.5 megapixels. Capacity is far greater than any other photo sharing services offer today. Google for example, only 15 GB free.

There is admittedly some limitations regarding the file upload with free version of Flickr. Images can not be larger than 200 MB. It is possible to upload video in 1080p, but they can not exceed 1 GB in size, and the online play is limited to 3 minutes per video.

free version is also funded by advertising. Want to get rid of the ads, you can upgrade to an “Ad free” account which costs $ 50 a year, around 300. It is also possible to double the storage to 2TB. Such “doublr” account costs however $ 500 a year, almost 3,000 million.

In addition to the new Flickr.com, Yahoo! has also released an update to Flickr’s Android app with new UI and editing functions. The same innovations that were introduced to the Flickr app for iOS last December.

[Gamer.no] Monday night announced Microsoft’s next console. It is named Xbox One and coming in the saddle “around the world” in 2013.

Xbox One becomes entertainment center

One of the large momenta Microsoft emphasized during his press conference was how they look cause that Xbox One is a key for all your entertainment. Central to the whole console is the next version of Kinect. This camera with built-in microphone has received considerable attention from Microsoft in recent years, and with Xbox One take them at all a step further. You can turn on the computer, say “Xbox One.” Kinect will recognize sequences that turn on your computer and will automatically send you to your personal main menu where you get access to all your content.

You can flip between games, movies and music only by means where you want, and bypassing the entertainment forms on a BOpen. Microsoft claims that all is as fast as press anywhere on a button.

menu system on the Xbox One.

You can have several programs up simultaneously. For example, you can have Internet Explorer up like a leaf on the side of the screen while watching a movie in something they call Snap Mode. Here also the voice control is very important and you can go straight into a game, go into conversations on Skype, and much more while you for example look at a film.

The new Kinect sensor will be chopped sharper than fogjengaren. It has got a disintegrates at 1080p, which is a solid upscaling from the original that has a disintegrates at 480p. It will also expand the visual field, and Microsoft says that it will work in almost any lighting condition. Unlike the first edition of Kinect that could only be read basic body movements, the next Kinect could read small hand movements, as well as recognize the voice even if you were to be in a noisy room, however.


Solid Xbox Live upgrade

With Xbox One Microsoft is aiming to bring Xbox Live platform a solid step up and start using the cloud to achieve this.

Content can be stored in rain so you can get access to it regardless of what console you are on. Existing Xbox LIVE Gold membership will be transferred to the Xbox One, which does not promise well for users of the free Xbox Live Silver membership.

Chopped more positive for all players regardless of membership is that Don Mattrick from Microsoft finally disproved the Xbox One will require that you are logged online to play games. Power supply will still be required for some functions.

One Xbox, Kinect and kontrollaren.

One of Sony’s most exciting play when they showed PlayStation 4 in February was that you could upload videos of what you’ve got to play. This is a thread Microsoft also will take hold of, and they introduce their own Play-DVR that allows you to save your performance in shy to show to other players.

With the Xbox 360 Microsoft introduced achievement points accumulate to a total. This will be added to the Xbox One, but the concept is further developed. The new system takes a video of your performance at the rock, and will offer a more dynamic scoring system that adapts to how you play. Besides offering Xbox One of the Microsoft call “living game”. This means that the worlds of play may develop while you play, and artificial intelligence can learn to play like you so your veins can play against your shadow.


First glimpses from the front spel

Microsoft did not show up many games during the press conference, but still took the time to establish that several major titles will be available on Xbox One. First up was EA who could tell that the four sports franchise FIFA, Madden, NBA Live, and UFC is heading to Xbox One, and is built on a completely new graphics engine. Spela come within the first twelve months of Xbox One means life, and FIFA 14 Ultimate Team is exclusively for Xbox One.

On Xbox One matar you drive straight into the machine.

Another game many have been waiting for, but that does not come as a bomb is Forza Motorsport 5 This game is as usual, developed by veterans in Turn 10, and comes in the saddle while the Xbox One shows up in the stores.

Another exclusive Xbox One game is Quantum Break, the next game from Remedy, the Finnish developers behind games like Max Payne and Alan Wake. Get details so far clear of this game, but it can seem that time is a very important element.

conference’s biggest title was without a doubt Call of Duty: Ghosts from Activision and Infinity Ward. This game will be a more emotional game than before, and you are partly a dog with the team that among other things can sniff out bombs. Microsoft and Acitivision continues its long-standing cooperation and Xbox One version of the game will tidseksklusivt extra content.

After the conference, several publishers announced that the upcoming big game gets an Xbox One version. Among these we find Destiny from Activision, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Watch Dogs from Ubisoft, Thief from Square Enix and Battlefield 4 from EA.

Apple chief was grilled - digi.no

Top Apple Tim Cook had to explain Tuesday why Apple hardly pay taxes on the money the company earns outside the United States to a hearing in Congress. Recent revelations about how Apple has worked out to minimize the tax bill has created furore in American political life.

  • [21/05/2013] Apple gets tax beating in USA

Apple has very good income from his business outside the U.S., but this will be little or no U.S. taxes. Instead, Apple has put up various stack structures with its base in Ireland as a starting point.

– We pay all the taxes we owe. Every dollar, said Cook according to the Los Angeles Times when he testified Tuesday.

– We focus not only in letter but also the spirit by law, said continued Cook before he gave rice back to the politicians in Congress: The tax system is not adapted to the digital age and the tax prevents the free flow of capital to a far greater extent than other countries’ tax system.

He also called for dramatically simplifying the U.S. tax system for businesses, including by reducing taxes and the tax level on income earned outside the United States “sensible.”

Today, U.S. corporate tax the income they earn outside the United States, if they are taken into the country . It’s Apple, and several other American companies failed to do.

Among other things, Apple has over $ 100 billion, a cash balance of around 145 billion, standing on accounts outside the United States. If money is to be spent in the U.S. will trigger a significant tax bill.

– We are proud to be an American company and is also proud to contribute to the U.S. economy, said Cook according Los Angeles Times.

The hardest critic against Apple has been the Democratic Congressman Carl Levin. He accused Apple to operate with “ghost companies” and “alchemy” to avoid the tax burden of the U.S. tax system has placed on them.

– Apple executives want the public to focus on the taxes paid by the company, but the important question is the billions of dollars the company has not paid thanks to tax strategies that have a single purpose: to avoid taxes, said Levin.

It’s no wonder this has been a theme in U.S. policy and the rest of the world. The economic downturn has meant that budgets are slim. Politicians looking high and low for revenue to finance the public sector, while it cut significantly.

But Apple did not just criticism during yesterday’s hearing, reports the Los Angeles Times. Senator Rand Paul said Apple’s critics should apologize to the company.

– Quite frankly, I am offended by the government’s bullying, verbal attacks and harassment of one of America’s greatest success stories. What Apple has done that is illegal? he asked rhetorically, and continued:

– Congress should apologize for creating bizarre and “Byzantine” tax rules, nor given Apple complements for creating jobs, said Paul.

About tax controversy will lead to a simplification of the U.S. tax rules remains to be seen. Apple and several other technology companies will not deflect. As long as all tax adjustments they make within the letter will ever greater capital bases being built outside the United States.

- Telenor was hacked by Indians - NA24.no

Published 5/22/13 2:52 p.m.

Probably only a small part of a large, private espionage ring.

In March it was announced that Telenor had been exposed to a significant hacker attacks that may have drained huge amounts of information from sources such as the company’s senior executives.

extent of the leak is not publicly known.

Norwegian security company Norman in the wake of this incident the resources to find out what was behind, and now they have created a report named “The Hangover Report”.

Operation Hangover

In the report, the attack against Telenor in all probability is part of a larger espionage system originating from India.

key word “hangover” is something that goes back to the source code of large parts of the software.

According to Norman are talking about a centralized and professional networks that will be held in about three years that has spread its efforts over a number of countries and companies. It all seems to have started with espionage against Pakistan, where among other government officials allegedly hit – but that has gradually started to walk over to industrial espionage worldwide.

It must have been talking about telecommunications, mining, automotive, courts, research, food industry, financial industry and military institutions. Telenor seems to be just a cog in this system. Porsche is another company that is mentioned by name.

According to Norman, we find links to Norway, Pakistan, USA, Iran, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Jordan, Indonesia, Britain, Germany, Austria, Poland and Romania.

– What surprises us is the extreme diversity of sectors that are attacked, including natural resources, telecommunications, justice, restaurants and factories. It is unlikely that this organization carries out industrial espionage only by self-interest – making this a significant concern, says security expert Norman Trygve Aasland to IDG.


Went also to peace activists

security company F-Secure has also revealed that a Mac accompanying an activist from Angola who attended the Oslo Freedom Forum was infected with spyware.

software was used, according to security experts not be particularly sophisticated, but quite typical bespoke software based on among other known vulnerabilities in Windows, as well as typical phishing techniques where users are tricked into clicking on links that lead to malicious content.

did not identify the use of so-called unknown vulnerabilities, or “Zero-Day Attack”, which among other things was massively used in the famous Stuxnet / Flame attack against Iranian nuclear industry. Norman believes there are no indications that this is state-sponsored espionage.

attacks used to mainly be aimed at Windows, but it also revealed the use of bespoke software to the Mac. There will also be indications of attacks against mobile phones, but this is not documented.

Flooding can cause thinning local newspapers tomorrow - E24

– Just the way it is now, we do not have the newspaper in the morning at all, say a given Kirsti M. Nielsen, editor of Rana Blad.

local newspaper from Mo i Rana is one of 40 editors who have been manufacturing systems knocked out due to computer failure at Amedia headquarters in Lillestrøm.

– Our employees are not designed pages, can not send pages to the printer. In addition, you will NOT produced ads, says Nielsen to E24.

– This is pretty bad. It’s no fun to be the editor today. We manufacture cases and output images in other applications, and if you get systems up and running soon we will have time to create a full editorial for our readers tomorrow. Annonnsemessig I think we already have to admit that we are not able to make a full-fledged newspaper Thursday.

updated online newspapers with mobile

Flood damage does that 40 of the 70 local newspapers in Amedia has lacked switching functions, missing e-mails and had trouble updating their online editions Wednesday.

Editors have had to use 3G and mobile phones to get the stuff on the Web.

class=”dp-article-image-byline-label” data-dp-editable-type=”textfield” data-dp-editable-name=”Byline Label”> Photo: Berit Roald

In addition, ie production sites and advertisements have been significantly delayed.

– 5-6 hours have passed away without having been able to produce as normal, confirming Communications Director Amedia, Stig Finslo.

– This may unfortunately have consequences for tomorrow’s paper. We can not guarantee that we manage to produce so many newspaper pages as planned. The pages of tomorrow’s newspapers will simply be made in a much shorter time than normal

Centralized Lillestrom

Amedia is the country’s second largest media group Schibsted by and far the largest local newspaper group in the country with 70 different titles across the country.

Centralization within the group means that many of the local newspapers functions are controlled from the data center at the basement, even though the papers are scattered around the kingdom.

– This shows that we are very vulnerable. I expect a proper evaluation after this incident, says Rana Blad editor Kirsti M. Nielsen.

– We moved our servers down for just a few months ago. It’s a beautiful summer day with 23 degrees here with us, but we turned out of the rain in eastern Norway. It is a bit paradoxical, she says dry.

– are working hard

Amedia Group

  • Amedia is the second largest media group (by Schibsted), and was established in the 27th May 1948 under the name Norwegian Labor Press.
  • from 1994 called Group A press before the last year changed its name to Amedia.
  • Group is present by far the largest in terms of local newspapers, and wholly or partially over 70 local and regional newspapers and related online newspapers, print shops, local TV stations and local radio channels.

Of the 40 affected newspapers are the major regional newspapers such as Rome Blad, Northern Lights, newspaper and Nordland Oppland Arbeiderblad.

How many of those affected newspapers that would be hard to make as voluminous papers as normal in the morning, can not Finslo estimate now.

– We are now working feverishly to replace some boards in our computer. Once the job is done and it should be fine pretty soon, we’ll be up and running as normal, says Finslo.

But that is with a considerable lag around redkasjonene.

1,500 employees affected

– Dert’s 1,500 employees are affected as a result of the problems we’ve had today. They have not been able to use e-mail or production tools.

cause of problems is water ingress in a cellar on the basement.

– A transformer has been eliminated as a result of flooding, which caused the power went, including in our computer room. Normally, it then switches to another computer room, where our back-up stands. However, one technical problem appeared, so that this transfer did not happen, says Finslo.

power has long back but the strong power outage this morning meant that several communication control card in the computer system simply was singed off.

– short betrayed both our main solution and back-up. We are working to get swapped out the cards, and everything should be up and running again shortly.

– This should not happen

– Given that you have centralized many of the solutions for their newspapers, this should offence.This equipment better protected against a flood?

– What happened should not happen and we must ensure that it is not going to happen again. We have contingency plans, but in this case failed both at the same time, for various reasons.

– But is it wise to have a central equipment in a basement?

– We will immediately take action and make sure this can never happen again, says Amedia communications director Stig Finslo.

Local newspapers hit by flooding - journalist

water has led to power outages in Amedia basement in Lillestrøm.

OF Glenn Slydal Johansen and Martin Huseby Jensen [22/05/2013 10:07]

flooding now affects the first media companies. In Amedia facilities in Lillestrøm have a water leak knocked out the internet connection to a variety of group newspapers.

Jobs on 3G

– We have had a water leak in the basement of Rose Road. There lies the key infrastructure in relation to energized circuits. This means that the power is knocked out by a flood that has been great, says CTO Tom Lekang Amedia.

In addition, editorial solutions affected, because internal communication is at the center who are affected.

Many reporters around the country does not access the internet at work. Instead, they work over the internet via 3G for example on mobile.

– Readers taper

In Nordlys not update the website as a result of the crash data at the cellar. Chief Editor Anders Opdahl think it is puzzling that the data center is place in a basement, which is now full of water. He thinks it does not sound too tricked out to place a computer brain in a damp basement. But having said that it may be that it is secured with bonnet and other things he did not know.

– It’s very lovely this. For we are the in the same mode as we were in 1997. We are disconnected from the outside world and the web is immaterial. And then we can focus on the delicious print edition …

– So our readers lose. For we are, in effect paralyzed, for all we have of current news coverage today is focused towards digital platforms.

And so it is a paradox that while the data center is filled with water in Norway, we have the finest day in living memory here in Tromsø, says Opdahl explaining that they still have the opportunity to update the website with your cell phone. – It is not exactly optimal.

Jobs with backup

Amedia working with Telenor to technically get internet from somewhere else.

– They get the internet in minutes. We also have operations at two other locations, so we work to switche on, say Lekang.

– Have you been insufficient forbederedt?

– This has never happened in my years in Amedia.

– But many of us who grew up on Raumarike remember the great flood of 1995?

– Yes, but Roseveien is high. I guess it is water currents coming up from Skedsmo plateau.

latter’s backup solutions for the editorial system Lekang laws in place during the morning.

Databases and manufacturing platform is so far not affected because it is in a different computer labs. Lekang said the group also has backup at other sites in the Oslo region.

As a result of the internet breach Amedia employees do not have access to e-mail this morning. Mobile phones are not affected.

Unclear TV revolution from Microsoft - Aftenposten

When a small group of Microsoft employees for Thirteen years ago suggested making a game machine for their bosses, they were hunted almost to the door. In a firm that was used to create user applications and operating systems, it was pretty fast established that a gaming machine was a risky project.

Energetic Steve Ballmer literally yelled that this was going to lose the company a lot of money to the group that presented the original plan in 2000, but the project was finally realized. Some had probably set out a long term plan for the Xbox machine that involved far more than just gaming experiences.


Multimedia Machine

Your Microsoft has come today. In recent years, the Xbox – with the current hardware Xbox 360 acted increasingly less about games and more and more about entertainment.

figures from Microsoft in the U.S. shows that more people are now using Xbox 360 to things other than gaming.

In the U.S. it is understandable, which has made a solid grip to ensure a variety of entertainment on their machine. In addition to music via Xbox Music and movie rentals via Zune has a number of TV, movie and sports manufacturers launched their products to Xbox 360

Has the Xbox in the U.S. you can watch sports from ESPN, NHL and NBA, you can watch TV shows from HBO and other major TV companies, movies from Netflix and competitive flow services, as well as play with a wide variety of other entertainment applications.

In Norway, the sample only a fraction of what is offered in the United States.

Games Xbox machine has been gradually phased out. Today’s Xbox wants to be an entertainment machine, the device that will rule over your living room. Appropriately enough, the new machine titled Xbox One.


Outdated media photo

TV watching was the main focus during yesterday’s live presentation of Xbox One of the United States.

There is something old-fashioned over the philosophy of Microsoft, where they talked about the TV as the heart of the home.

Here are a few who forget to pay attention in class. Young adults today have barely enough a relationship with TV sets anymore. The time when TV was the family’s focal point was over ten years ago, today young people consume content via tablets and computers.

need to have a TV in the center of the living room as a window onto the world have disappeared.

modern TV is just a receiver for a signal from another device, the ability to watch live TV on a game console – one of the main arguments for Microsoft yesterday – is an outdated and irrelevant selling point for much of the audience to the machine.

Skivebom

Sony introduced a few months ago Playstation 4 as a machine designed for gaming with simpler architecture for developers and focus on everything from large commercial titles to narrow indie games. Sony’s presentation spoke to the players and developers with solid gaming experiences and good development conditions in focus.

Microsoft fails to hit someone with his presentation and introduced instead a set-top box where the games seemed like an uninspired afterthought.

Microsoft’s long-term goal is to sneak into a gaming console in the home and then gradually turn it into an entertainment box has come so far that they finally dare to put the game out of order when they present the future of Xbox.

Microsoft promises increased gambling focus on the upcoming E3 show in Los Angeles in June, but yesterday’s clinical and boring presentation of a product with outdated focus on watching TV instead of playing was unsettling. Right now there is no doubt that the Playstation 4 wire with a sturdy horse’s head among all those who eagerly await a new generation of game machines.

Norman Shark reveals Cyber ??Espionage - ITPro

The Norwegian security company Norman Shark has discovered the first major cyber espionage attack from India.

Norwegian security firm Norman Shark has recently published a report (PDF file) undergoing what they describe as “Operation Hangover – Unveiling an Indian attack cyber-infrastructure”. The attacks appear to have originated in India, and has been operating for at least three years. It looks mostly like the purpose of the attack is to monitor the goals that are of interest to national security (including Pakistan), but it has also been conducted industrial espionage against the telecom company Telenor, and other civilian agencies.

was graded as put light on this 17th March when they wrote that Telenor Security Center had recorded abnormal Internet traffic from computers to several of the bosses in Telenor. Spies tapped computers for email, files, passwords and other personal data. The incident was also reported to NCIS.

Norman Shark basically had no access to the case, but after the Norwegian CERT (NorCERT) shared some data from the event, including some MD5 files of suspicious files, they could with this basically collect more information. It was not long before they found out that Telenor was only one of many targets in a very extensive infrastructure of targeted attacks by far unknown species. Norman Shark has discovered a surprisingly large number of attacks worldwide, from governments, military and businesses. Pakistan seems to be an over-represented countries for the attacks.
Fordelingen of angrep

There is no clear evidence that the actors behind the attack has been awarded the contract on behalf of anyone.
It appears that the attack has been carried out with the technique “social engineering”. A security system is no more secure than its weakest link – often man. Using deception, persuasion, influence and charm has attackers gained access to the data of enterprises.

Norman Shark points out that businesses today have to realize that it is not a question of whether they will be exposed to an attack – but when , and have a plan in place for how to deal with such an attack when it occurs.
