Forget your car keys? Soon it won’t make a difference, as long as you have your laptop. An interesting viral Web video (see below) making the rounds since the Black Hat cybersecurity conference earlier this month depicts two researchers from iSEC Partners (a San Francisco-based security firm) breaking into a 1998 Subaru Outback via their PC. In less than 60 seconds, they wirelessly find the car’s security system module, bypass it and start the engine remotely. iSEC researchers Don Bailey and Mat Solnik claim to be able to hack their way into a securely locked car because its alarm relies on a cell phone or satellite network that can receive commands via text messaging. Devices connecting via a cellular or satellite network are assigned the equivalent of a phone number or Web address. If hackers can figure out the number or address for a particular car, they could use a PC to send commands via text messages that instruct the car to disarm, unlock and start. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/43000-thieves-could-steal-cars-via-text-messages-in-60-secondsForget your car keys?

"Folks who do systems analysis have a great belief in "leverage points."

Astronomers, including a NASA-funded team member, have discovered a new class of Jupiter-sized planets floating alone in the dark of space, away from the light of a star. The team believes these lone worlds probably were ejected from developing planetary systems. The discovery indicates there are many more free-floating Jupiter-mass planets that can't be seen. The team estimates there are about twice as many of them as stars. In addition, these worlds are thought to be at least as common as planets that orbit stars. This adds up to hundreds of billions of lone planets in our Milky Way galaxy alone. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/submit-an-article/42964-free-floating-planets-no-longer-sci-fi-Astronomers, including a NASA-funded team member, have discovered a new class of... more

Squared-jawed, with four stars decorating each shoulder, General Keith Alexander looks like a character straight out of an old American war movie. But his old-fashioned appearance belies the fact that the general has a new job that is so 21st-century it could have been dreamed up by a computer games designer. Alexander is the first boss of USCybercom, the United States Cyber Command, in charge of the Pentagon’s sprawling cyber networks and tasked with battling unknown enemies in a virtual world. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/7125-cyber-commandSquared-jawed, with four stars decorating each shoulder, General Keith Alexander looks... more

Graphics processing units are powerful enough to conduct quick, effective brute-force attacks on password-protected systems. The researchers pointed out that GPUs have been amped-up over the years to handle increasingly sophisticated computer games, and in the process have achieved the power of a mini-supercomputer. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/1931-surprising-secret-weaponGraphics processing units are powerful enough to conduct quick, effective brute-force... more

What do MRI machines, rockets, fiber optics, LCDs, food production and welding have in common? They all require the inert, or noble, gas helium for their use or at some stage of their production.

One of the key aspects of the emerging Internet of Things - where real-world objects are connected to the Internet - is the massive amount of new data on the Web that will result. As more and more "things" in the world are connected to the Internet, it follows that more data will be uploaded to and downloaded from the cloud. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/389-data-explosion-One of the key aspects of the emerging Internet of Things - where real-world objects... more

It’s all well and good for a company to build a green headquarters, release annual corporate responsibility reports and track its greenhouse gas emissions. But if it doesn’t extend that tracking to its suppliers, it’s at least partially responsible for the environmental impact of those companies, as well.
Perhaps more important to most businesses, one supplier’s negligence can become a financial risk to everyone up the supply chain. If a supplier is caught, say, dumping toxic chemicals or using child labor, it’s only a matter of time before the news taints a company’s public image (see: The Gap, Nike and, most recently, Microsoft).
In response to various public health and labor scandals back in the late 1990s, many global companies began to drill down into their supply chains as a way to better understand and manage their own risks. Over the course of the last decade, that management has extended to the environmental performance and impact of suppliers. Wal-Mart has been making headlines for the last two years for its supplier scorecards.
Now, IBM is taking its supply chain management another step forward with a new system of environmental management and public reporting rules ...

A brain–computer interface (BCI), is a direct communication pathway between a brain and an external device. BCIs are often aimed at assisting, augmenting or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. Thanks to the remarkable cortical plasticity of the brain, signals from implanted prostheses can, after adaptation, be handled by the brain like natural sensor or effector channels. Following years of animal experimentation, the first neuroprosthetic devices implanted in humans appeared in the mid-nineties. ......... http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/your-details/222-the-worlds-first-commercial-brain-computer-interface-A brain–computer interface (BCI), is a direct communication pathway between a... more

According to Sun Tzu, the Tao is the Way – the context that defines how actions are perceived and valued, and management must be able to accurately assess the program in the context of the company’s cultural and political reality. Failure to do this will inevitably create a clash between strategic security plans and the operational activities that enable that vision.According to Sun Tzu, the Tao is the Way – the context that defines how actions... more
