Google Titan Security Key // Help prevent account takeovers from phishing attacks.

 
Titan Security Keys are phishing-resistant two-factor authentication (2FA) devices that help protect high-value users such as IT admins. Titan Security Keys work with popular browsers and a growing ecosystem of services that support FIDO standards. They are built with a hardware chip that includes firmware engineered by Google to verify the integrity of the key. Titan Security Keys are available on the Google Store and through your Google Cloud representative.  

Enhanced account protection

Titan Security Keys implement FIDO standards for 2FA using cryptography to verify a user’s security key and address of the login page. Security keys help defend against the consequences of phishing attacks and help prevent account takeovers.

Trusted hardware

Titan Security Keys are built with a hardware chip that includes firmware engineered by Google to verify the key’s integrity. This helps to ensure that the keys haven’t been physically tampered with.

Open ecosystem

 

Titan Security Keys work with popular browsers and a growing ecosystem of services that support FIDO standards. One security key can be used to authenticate to many work and personal services.


Features

Phishing-resistant 2FA

Titan Security Keys provide cryptographic proof that users are interacting with the legitimate service that they originally registered their security key with, and that they are in possession of their security key.

Tamper-resistant hardware

A hardware chip that includes firmware developed by Google helps to verify that the keys haven’t been tampered with. The hardware chips are designed to resist physical attacks aimed at extracting firmware and secret key material.

Growing app ecosystem

Titan Security Keys can be used to authenticate to Google and many other services that support FIDO standards.

Broad browser support

Titan Security Keys are compatible with browsers (including Chrome) that support FIDO standards, and are available in two form factors (USB/NFC and USB/NFC/Bluetooth).

Security key enforcement

Available to Google Cloud customers, security key enforcement allows admins to require the use of security keys in their organization.

Advanced Protection Program

Titan Security Keys are compatible with the Advanced Protection Program, Google’s strongest security offering that helps safeguard the Google Accounts of anyone at risk of targeted attacks.

Pricing

Titan Security Keys are available on the Google Store. Bulk pricing may also be available through your Google Cloud representative.

Malware may spread via FB Messenger

Image
Digmine was first seen in South Korea A new cryptocurrency-mining bot, named “Digmine”, that was first observed in South Korea, is spreading fast through Facebook Messenger across the world, Tokyo-headquartered cybersecurity major Trend Micro has warned. After South Korea, it has since spread to Vietnam, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, the Philippines, Thailand and Venezuela. It is likely to reach other countries soon, given the way it propagates, the report said. Facebook Messenger works across different platforms but “Digmine” only affects the Messenger’s desktop or web browser (Chrome) version. If the file is opened on other platforms, the malware will not work as intended, Trend Micro said in a blogpost. “Digmine” is coded in AutoIt and sent to would-be victims posing as a video file but is actually an AutoIt executable script. If the user’s Facebook account is set to log in automatically, “Digmine” will manipulate Facebook Messenger in order to send a link to the file to the a

It’s packed with the most powerful graphics and processors ever in a Mac, along with the most advanced storage, memory and I/O — all behind a breathtaking Retina 5K display in a sleek, all-in-one design. For everyone from photographers to video editors to 3D animators to musicians to software developers to scientists, iMac Pro is ready to turn your biggest ideas into your greatest work.

Add Turbo Boost speeds up to 4.5GHz, and iMac Pro has the power and flexibility to balance multicore processing with single-thread performance. With new AVX-512 vector instructions and a new cache architecture, the processor handles even more data even more quickly. Which means you can render images, edit up to 8K vid

Everything You Think You Know About AI Is Wrong

Image
Robots are coming for our jobs. Terminators will soon murder us all. There is no escape. Resistance is futile. These doom-laden predictions probably sound familiar to anyone who's read or seen any movies lately involving artificial intelligence. Sometimes they're invoked with genuine alarm, as in the case of Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking warning against the danger of killer automatons. Other times, the anxiety comes across as a kind of detached, ironic humor masking the true depths of our dread, as if tweeting nervous jokes about #Skynet will somehow forestall its rise. AI raises unsettling questions about our place in the economy and society; even if by some miracle 99 percent of employers agree not to use robots to automate labor, that still leaves many hardworking people potentially in the lurch. That's why it's important to talk about the impact AI will have on our future now, while we have a chance to do something about it. And the questions are complicated:
