Surprisingly Apple Inc. suddenly announced that it would hold a press conference on Friday (06/16/2010). Is Apple’s iPhone4 will explain about the chaos which makes its shares fall?

Apple spokesman Steve Dowling told that the press conference will be held at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California Friday (06/16/2010) at 10:00 local time.

However, Dowling declined to explain whether at that time Apple will provide clarifications about the criticism of the four iPhone users are disappointed with these devices.

He also declined to comment on the revelation of Consumer Reports stating that the fourth generation iPhone was not worth buying. In other words, it is not recommended because of signal problems.

Consumer Reports is a nonprofit institution that is trusted to give an objective assessment of the quality of a product. Impact of Consumer Reports statement made Apple stock plummeted. Apple’s explanation that weak signal problems caused by antenna function disrupted if a user touches the bottom left side of the device did not answer the question. The reason is because most Apple users are left-handed.

Apple then provides solutions by offering a rubber casing that protects the antenna work, but of course the casing is not free. But lately, Apple acknowledged that the weak signal on the iPhone 4 was not caused or antenna design problems, but because of bad software that is embedded in the gadget itself.

If the company wants to pull the iPhone 4 which has sold more than 1.7 million within three days, analysts expect that Apple will spend U.S. $ 1.5 billion. Consumer Reports suggest that Apple give the rubber casing freely to the consumers.

A computer security expert claims to have developed a telephone tapping device at an affordable price. Device is only worth approximately USD1.500 is able to record every phone conversation.

Chris Paget, security experts have also been poor across the world’s hackers showed how he was able to break into the GSM network technology which has been the most widely used in mobile communications. He demonstrated the device in front of dozens of hackers who attend DefCon hackers’ conference at the United States. As reported by Financial Times, Sunday (01/08/2010), According to Paget, the demo shown illustrates that the criminals can do the same thing for a dangerous purpose, and consumers have few options to protect themselves.

“I expect research and development of listening devices, which will help encourage the implementation of new communication standard that is more secure, GSM is the second-generation technology, but when using the 3G and 4G network eavesdroppers will be difficult to bug it,” she said.

He gave an example, phones like the BlackBerry implement encryption for calls that would thwart the attack. Developed software system is only able to break into the device that uses the GSM and not 3G.

What will happen later in the year 2011 relating to IT security? Threat or threats what should we watch out and be like if the face of the threat in 2011?

Consider the prediction of security experts from ESET. These predictions are compiled David Harley, Director at ESET Malware Intelligence and analysts in Cyber Threat Analysis Center (CTAC), an agency that analyzes cyber threats, as well as part of a new research body set up by ESET about trends 2011.

According to this analysis, social networking media will remain a primary target of attacks as experienced during the year 2010 either by the users of Google and Facebook. It will even have a tendency to increase in 2011 on social media sites such as LinkedIn, Orkut, and Twitter, it is similarly to search engines such as Bing and Yahoo.

Occurrences up on the other side also raises new problems, and the problem will still exist if the threat eradication efforts are limited to just the symptoms by providing menus of privacy in social media such as wanted by users, so that data security remains the responsibility of the consumers but eradication was not up to “illness”. Danger on Facebook is still there, but still subtle.

Attacks on mobile devices will have increased: certain brands that complement their products with the application for protection will be increasingly vulnerable to malware attacks, however, that certainly is an attack of false social networking will continue. Read the rest of this entry »

By the application of the law on computer recycling (2002), a former computer business development increases.
