http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/events/F8%202015/f8-messenger-platform-470-75.jpgIntroduction and global connectionsFacebook's annual F8 developer conference, attended by more than 3,000 app developers, isn't really annual at all, having failed to make an appearance in 2013, 2012 and 2009. However, this certainly hasn't lessened the excitement surrounding the event and this year anticipation, particularly surrounding plans for Oculus Rift, was palpable – even as the European Commission warned the EU that they should close their Facebook accounts to avoid being spied on by US security services, and the UK's BladeRoom Group filed a lawsuit with the social networking giant for theft of intellectual property. CTO Mike Schroepfer certainly wasn't distracted by events outside of F8, announcing on day two of the conference that Facebook was "here to talk about the future", setting the tone for the most notable announcements, including where Rift fits into the social network. Facebook's core priorities appear to revolve around Oculus Rift, drones and AI, all intended to make Facebook more 'lifelike' and 'useful'. The $2 billion (around £1.3 billion, AU$2.6 billion) purchase of Oculus Rift a year ago prompted a lot of head scratching at the time, although the world's collective scalps were soothed by Mark Zuckerberg's explanation at the time that he saw Rift as a "new communication platform" and a "platform for many other experiences," and not merely a fillip to gaming companies. http://cdn3.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/gaming_accessories/Oculus%20Rift/Crescent%20Bay/CES%202015%20hands%20on/DSC_0938-420-100.JPG "By feeling truly present, you can share unbounded spaces and experiences with the people in your life," he went on. "Imagine enjoying a courtside seat at a game, studying in a classroom of students and teachers all over the world or consulting with a doctor face-to-face." Global connectionsA year on and, even without an F8 two-dayer, we're all pretty clued up to roughly where Zuckerberg sees Rift fitting in o the new Facebook 'family' – a new means of communication through the social media platform; a future where the internet will rely heavily on virtual and augmented reality tech and applications. F8 provided the Facebook team an opportunity to paint a more vivid picture of where they see things going with Oculus Rift: opportunities to connect the world over as if all are in the same room together. But there's a way to go yet. As Facebook CTO Mike Schroepfer explained: "After thousands of demos we know we are just on the cusp, just getting there to get that sense of presence where for a moment your conscious brain is overruled by the subconscious that says, 'You are not where you think you are'." And Facebook couldn't (or wouldn't) give a timeframe on when Oculus Rift headsets will be available, so it's very much a case of watch this (head) space. However, the newly announced spherical video gives everyone a taste – a "first step" – of what Oculus Rift will be able to do, once it's launched properly as part of the Facebook family. Spherical video is set to allow Facebook users to interact with immersive, 360-degree videos in their Facebook News Feeds, following YouTube's lead. The videos are shot with 24 cameras, all working in concert, allowing viewers to "move around inside" the video and view from a variety of angles. Soon, said Zuckerberg, "you're going to be able to put on your Oculus headset and view spherical videos there too." And Rift is only one member of this new Facebook family. As Zuckerberg explained: "Facebook used to be this single blue app and it did a lot of different things, now Facebook is a family of apps. Moving from being a single service to a family of apps is the biggest shift we've made in our strategy in helping connect people." Drones and Messenger PlatformPlanet-wide prototypeThe Aquila solar-powered drone prototype might not be considered an 'app', but it's certainly a new family member. Boasting the wingspan of a 737 and the mass of a small car, it is intended to fly up to 90,000 feet to provide internet access to net-poor areas in order to "get everyone on the internet," according to Schroepfer. Altruistic, sure, but Facebook is sure to be one of the main beneficiaries of both this and Google Inc's internet-beaming satellites. It currently has 1.3 billion monthly users and is hungry for more. And this desire to get the whole planet online is set to compound one of the issues informing the need for artificial intelligence development: the glut of digital picture and video content, with more and more added daily. AI will help to index and archive this huge amount of data in a more rational and human way, to "build a deeper understanding of what's in the content." Facebook is working to build new AI systems that can learn, be trained and solve basic logical problems, helping to make sense of the brimming sea of data, which is set to become a Great Flood as Facebook widens its global reach. "If we achieve our first goal, get everyone on the internet, build services at scale for the entire planet, we create this new problem: so much information you can't consume the stuff that's important to you," Schroepfer said. http://cdn0.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/events/F8%202015/day%202/f8-messenger-business-2-420-100.jpg Platform expansionAdding to this info flood, the announcement that Facebook is opening up its four-year-old Messenger service to third-party developers – the 'Messenger Platform' – so that they can add their own functionality ("more tools for expression") looks to be an attempt by Zuckerberg to broaden Messenger into a wider platform, with over 40 new apps already developed. With more than 600 million people said to use Messenger at least once a month, there's clearly scope to make it more than just a chat hub. "One of the fastest growing and most important members of our family is Messenger," explained Zuckerberg. Facebook had previously announced VoIP calls and that it was allowing US Messenger users to send money to and from one another, and at F8 Zuckerberg also announced Businesses on Messenger to "reinvent" how people and businesses communicate. This will allow members of the public to communicate directly with representatives from businesses that they interact with or buy goods from, instead of using the more traditional email approach – something Skype once tried unsuccessfully to front up. One specific use of Businesses on Messenger will be to allow users to receive real-time shopping updates, tracking and confirming orders via instant message conversations. With more and more companies worldwide overcoming their initial scepticism of Facebook as a business-facing platform, this is an interesting development, expanding business' reach into Facebook's more traditionally personal orbit.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/periscope-vs-meerkat-live-streaming-apps-470-75.jpgLive streaming or let diehttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/periscope-vs-meerkat-live-streaming-apps-420-90.jpg Live from your mobile phone, it's either Periscope for Meerkat. The two video streaming apps are the latest social media sensations to broadcast real-time video. Turning everyone into an on-the-scene reporter, Meerkat made its officially debut at SXSW Interactive Festival this month. It links to your Twitter account for easy sharing to existing followers. Periscope launched today with the same basic purpose, only it has official Twitter backing. It was purchased by social media company for a reported $100 million (about £67, AU$128). It's difficult enough to broadcast with one of these new apps without distraction, so using both at the same time is out. It's time for our Periscope vs Meerkat comparison. What are Periscope and Meerkat?http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/periscope2-420-90.jpg Both video streaming apps let you see through someone else's eyes. This makes them ideal for large, but distant events, like protests, or as we saw today, New York City building fires. Of course, for every critical-viewing event, there are a dozen meaningless salad making or one-second "Test" live streaming videos for the new services. That's to be expected. It reminds me of the advent of cable news. CNN founder Ted Turner was once asked "Aren't you, with live all the time...gonna wind up covering a lot of one-alarm fires?" He responded, "Until it's over, you never know whether it was a one-alarm fire or the fire that burned down Chicago." Meerkat and Periscope could be the next-generation version of this. Periscope vs Meerkat: Compatibilityhttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/periscope-420-90.jpg Both Periscope and Meerkat have launched iOS apps, and the developers behind these two live video streaming services are promising Android support "soon." Periscope has the backing of Twitter and Meerkat has solid funding behind it, so there's an urgency to follow through on this promise. After all Google-powered now dominate phones. Whichever app gets there first may win this live streaming video space race. Meerkat: Interfacehttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/meerkat-interface-2-420-90.jpg Meerkat is a lot busier looking than Periscope. A lot busier. The interface displays the broadcaster's name, their Twitter handle and viewer count in the top left corner. The city they're streaming from and the title of their broadcast are in the top right corner. That's not all. There's also an always-present sliding menu of every watcher's profile pic. It conveniently brings the broadcaster and viewers together, streaming-face to still-face. Comments look congested on Meerkat, but can be more engaging. That's because you can scroll back through the black-outlined text. On Periscope, comments quickly disappear. One thing that people dislike is Meerkat's deeper Twitter integration, which can SPAM your Twitter page with a bunch of @ replies, as every comment is tweeted. That's not fun. Periscope: Interfacehttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/periscope-vs-meerkat-chat-420-90.jpg Periscope has launched with a cleaner interface, which looks great for capturing live video. But it may be a little too clean for my liking. As a viewer, there's only an easy-to-miss X in the top corner to close a stream. The viewer list and broadcaster information are hidden within a menu access via a left swipe. Comments and viewer count are tucked away at the bottom, and comments disappear after a few short seconds. It's harder to disappearing text as a broadcaster. Hearts can be "given" to a Periscope broadcaster when a viewer taps the screen. It seems meaningless, but it's a really helpful way to instantly tell the host that you like what you see. Periscope vs Meerkat: Featureshttp://cdn2.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/Apps/periscope_3-420-100.jpg The biggest advantage to Periscope is that you can archive clips for viewing them on the web. This isn't completely automatic, however, as I sadly found out in my first, now-lost broadcast. Meerkat did give me the option to save my broadcast to my iPhone 6 camera roll, but it doesn't support sharing these clips within the app beyond the live stream. I expect this to change. For now, though, Meerkat is a bit like Snapchat. Video of your broadcast is unlikely to get out there, but it's still possible for other people to capture it nefariously. Meerkat does let you schedule broadcasts, which is very helpful for fans finding broadcasters and broadcasters reaching new fans. It's easier to build an audience. It also lets you use the iPhone's flash to light dark videos. Periscope vs Meerkat: Video quality and connectionhttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/periscope-meerkat-lag-420-90.jpg Video quality on Meerkat and Periscope greatly depend on your connection. With so many videos taken on the road, it's obvious that LTE isn't ready to live streaming the masses. This is further complicated by dropped frames (and audio) when switching between front and back cameras on both apps, as all talking heads like to do. Both apps are guilty of this. Periscope also had the distinct problem of hiding battery life and WiFi connection icons at the top of my iPhone. I found it hard to tell when I switched from WiFi to LTE unless viewers asked me if that just happened. Smart TechRadar viewers. Periscope vs Meerkat: Broadcastershttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/periscope-app-flaws-220-100.jpg Periscope looks a little more refined, and so far its early adopters are less annoying. That can of course change beyond day one of the app's existence. Meerkat is chock full of whinny people with first world problems, but that may be because it has been available since the top of the month. Periscope has time to catch up. Pretty soon it too will be full of people complaining about their day on the way home from work, broadcasting and driving at the same time. Why?! You'll find more legitimate news organizations on Meerkat right now because of the newness of Periscope. A lot of cutting-edge publications are using both apps side-by-side. Periscope vs Meerkat wrap-uphttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Apps/Periscope/vs%20Meerkat/meerkat-vs-periscope-420-100.jpg Today's Periscope vs Meerkat comparison reminds me of 2013's Vine vs Instagram launch. Both services ushered in short-form video capturing apps with back-to-back launches. These are two very experimental apps that will likely be tweaked based on user feedback. Periscope, for example, has already toned down the mass notifications it sends. It'd be nice for Meerkat is get a cleaner interface and Periscope to figure out a way to keep comments longer without cluttering the screen space. In a perfect world, in the words of TechRadar's Michelle Fitzsimmons, we'd have Meerscope. Or Perikat. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/44d7d968/sc/28/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224850891078/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44d7d968/sc/28/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224850891078/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44d7d968/sc/28/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224850891078/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44d7d968/sc/28/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224850891078/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44d7d968/sc/28/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/224850891078/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44d7d968/sc/28/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/Best%20Ofs/GamingTVs-470-75.jpg Best gaming TVsWith both the PS4 and Xbox One having already shifted in huge numbers and sales still brisk to say the least, it's clear that for many of our TVs are no longer just TVs. They also need to be gaming TVs. Which is actually pretty unfortunate considering that many TVs really don't lend themselves to gaming at all, potentially even significantly damaging your gaming skills. To make sure this doesn't happen to you, here's our pick of the 10 best gaming TVs in order of all-round desirability once value as well as gaming quality has been taken into account. http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/Sony/Sony%20W8%20TV/Sony%20W8%20main-420-100.jpg 1. Sony KDL-50W829Combines superb HD pictures with incredibly low input lag. Price: Around £600 Buy: John Lewis | Currys | Argos There are three great reasons for gamers to love this TV. First and most importantly, its input lag - the time it takes to render pictures - measures just 19ms. This is an exceptionally low figure for a TV, and clearly helps your performance in fast-reaction games. The 50W829 also works wonders with game images thanks to its excellent contrast, colour and motion reproduction. And finally at £600 it's outrageously good value for such a high-quality 50-inch TV.

Samsung UE65JS9500Delivers astonishing 4K pictures ever with exceptionally little input lag Price: Around £6000 Buy: Simply Electricals | Reliant Direct With its 4K resolution and incredible high dynamic range (HDR) colour and contrast support, Samsung's flagship 65-inch TV for 2015 provides an incredible gaming experience. The 4K upscaling is so good it makes your console games look better than HD, and its unprecedentedly dynamic pictures are ideal for game graphics. Plus, amazingly, the UE65JS9500 delivers all this while only suffering around 30ms of input lag - exceptionally low for a 4K TV. It's only problem is it's eye-watering price. Read: Samsung UE65JS9500 http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/Sony/Sony%20KD-65X9005B/sony-hero-420-100.jpg 3. Sony KD-65X9005BSuperb 4K pictures meet terrifyingly good sonics Price: Around £2,800 Buy: Simply Electricals | Sonic Direct If you like the idea of your gaming getting a 4K spit and polish like you get with the Samsung UE65JS9500 but can't afford six grand, Sony's 65X9005B is a spectacular cut-price alternative. It costs only half as much, yet still delivers excellent - albeit not HDR - 4K pictures handily accompanied by the most powerful integrated sound in the TV world. Modern games, after all, are as much about sound as visuals. Its input lag is low at 33ms too. Read: Sony KD-65X9005B review http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/Panasonic/TX-42AS600/Panasonic42AS600Hero-420-100.jpg 4. Panasonic TX-42AS600Highly affordable mid-sized TV with impressive response times Price: Around £440 Buy: Amazon | Hughes | Hi Spek Figuring we've probably pushed our luck with two huge and wallet-challenging 4K TVs, let's quickly get back into more manageable (42 -inch) and affordable territory with the excellent value 42AS600. This space-saving TV serves up sharp, clean, punchy images backed up in gaming terms by a low screen response time of under 30ms. This compares very favourably with the 65ms or higher found on some other Panasonic TVs at the moment.

Sony KDL-40W605Stupidly good gaming-friendly picture quality for insanely little money Price: Around £400 Buy: Amazon | Currys | Pixmania Sony strikes again with another supremely capable gaming TV. The 40-inch size supports either main or second-room use while still giving a big-screen feel, and Sony's colour and contrast excellence shine through with game graphics. Sony's screen is good for input lag too, at just 33ms, and as prices have dropped over the past few months it's become incredibly good value http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/televisions/Best%20TVs%20for%20Gaming/samsung%20ue40h5500-420-90.jpg 6. Samsung UE40H5500Lots of Samsung gaming goodness for precious little cash Price: Around £380 Buy: AO | PC World | Pixmania Continuing the value theme, the UE40H5500 costs comfortably under £400 despite being a ridiculously accomplished gaming screen. Its input lag is just 10ms in its Game mode - a figure usually only associated with the best dedicated gaming monitors - and its pictures enjoy just the sort of sharpness and colour punch that do video game graphics proud. Motion can look a touch soft, but overall the UE40H5500 punches well above its price weight as both a game screen and a TV. http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/LG/LG%2055EC930V/LG_55EC930V_Hero-420-100.jpg 7. LG 55EC930VOLED technology delivers spectacular graphics and a swift response time Price: Around £2,300 Buy: John Lewis | Currys | PRC Direct Let's shift back up the price gears now with the 55EC930V. While LG's LCD TVs don't figure here due to unhelpful input lag levels, the OLED-based 55EC930V is an outstanding gaming option delivering gorgeously rich colours, inky blacks, input lag of just 33ms in its Game mode, and crisp, clean motion reproduction ideally suited to gaming. You sometimes feel oddly aware of the screen's pixel structure and some unwanted processing, but otherwise this is a gaming - and movie - powerhouse.

Samsung UE48H6700Excellent contrast, clean motion handling and low input lag Price: £650 Buy: Amazon | John Lewis This Samsung is a pretty much perfect mid-range all-rounder. It's got a content-rich smart TV system; its impressively crisp, detailed and contrast-rich HD pictures are a great fit for game graphics; its 48-inch size offers a great compromise between gaming immersion and domestic practicality; its input lag is good at only a smidge over 30ms; and perhaps best of all it's now cracking value following a recent round of price cuts.

Linsar X24-DVDSmall-screen set with superb audio - ideal for bedroom gaming Price: Around £300 Buy: John Lewis | Amazon While blasting aliens on king-sized screens is undoubtedly fun, many gamers are restricted to very modest-sized screens in studies or bedrooms. So it's nice to report that there's a TV out there in the shape of the 24-inch X24-DVD that caters for small-screen gaming exceptionally well thanks to its bright pictures, low 32ms of input lag and, best of all, a startling built-in soundbar that shames the audio of many TVs three times as big. http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/Toshiba/32D3454DB/top-420-100.jpg 10. Toshiba 32D3454DBIt's cheap, conveniently sized, and its pictures suit gaming Price: £279 Buy: Currys | PC World If anything the 32D3454DB is a better gaming monitor than it is a TV. For while it lacks colour subtlety with video, its aggressive tones and surprisingly extreme contrast range by 32-inch TV standards give video game graphics plenty of pop and power. Its 33ms input lag measurement is very respectable too, and its screen size is ideally suited to gaming in bedrooms and studies. Its built-in DVD deck is handy for second-room use too.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/car%20tech/best_sat_nav-470-75.pngSat navs - introUPDATED: We've updated our list with the best sat navs and our new top five sat nav app. The car sat nav is an essential form of technology that we all take for granted. These days, with GPS-supporting smartphones and apps from the likes of TomTom, Garmin and the rest, you don't necessarily need a hardware sat nav, but they are still coming out from a few stalwart brands. Specifically: TomTom and Garmin. Long story short: hardware sat navs have better GPS receivers, which is particularly important in urban areas, and only really do one thing (although Garmin is always keen to bolt on fancy extras). Smartphone sat nav apps have better interfaces and screens, and are cheap (if you ignore the cost of your phone). Some are even free. Another peculiarity of sat navs is that because the core functionality has barely changed in a decade, they tend to remain on sale for years, at ever-reducing prices. Anyway, if you want a sat nav that won't let you down, you've come to the right place. The top five hardware devices are on page 2, the top five apps on page 3, a couple of oddities – a HUD and a motorbike specialist – on page 4. You have now reached your destination, says "English Jane". Sat navs - hardware http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/car%20tech/TomTom/Go%205000/Go%205000%20%2815%29-580-100.jpg 1. TomTom Go 5000The 5-inch member of TomTom's latest range is pure sat nav at its best Unless you desperately need a screen an inch bigger, in which case try the Go 6000, we'd say this 5-incher is the sweet spot in TomTom's sat nav range. The essential difference between TomTom's devices and Garmins is that TomTom's are a little more stripped back, with fewer smartphone-style features. In our opinion, that's a better route to go down, excellent though Garmin's sat navs are. You get traffic updates for life here, but you will have to pay an extra £20 per year for updates to keep you safe from safety cameras. Read: TomTom Go 5000 reviewhttp://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/car%20tech/Garmin/Nuvi/Garmin%20Nuvi-420-100.jpg 2. Garmin Nuvi 3598LMT-DSlickness and features abound on this winner from Garmin Another top-of-the-range GPS box, this has a five-inch screen and offers smartphone-like smoothness, excellent mapping and can be relied on to get you from A to B with plenty of points of interest and smart traffic-evading services that don't require a SIM or data connection – your car's DAB connectivity is used instead. As you'd expect at the price, luxe features abound, including Real Directions, which dispenses with abstract lefts or rights after hard-to-estimate distances, instead using landmarks: "turn left at Starbucks." The quality does cost, and you'll need to pay an extra £17 per year for UK camera info. However, it's an excellent device and whether you prefer this or the TomTom 6000 or TomTom 5000 largely comes down to whether you want lots of features (Garmin) or more of a concentration on core sat nav abilities (TomTom). Read: Garmin nuvi 3598LMT-D reviewhttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/car%20tech/TomTom%20Go%206000/go-600-imperial-420-90.jpg 3. TomTom Go 6000The big brother of the Go 5000 offers more screen but less value The TomTom Go 6000 is an impressive piece of kit. The interface is intuitive, with TomTom's excellent routing benefiting from being able to draw on live traffic data to make for incredibly accurate journey times as well. The fact that it includes lifetime map and journey updates for 45 countries in Europe make it all the sat nav you should ever need. The 6-inch screen is bright and clear and easy to see whatever the lighting outside, and the voices are clear and precise too. The new mounting system is solid, yet it's easy to remove the sat nav from its cradle if you need to. You can charge the sat nav from a standard micro-USB connector, if you're away from your car too, which adds to its flexibility. You have to pay extra for camera data, but the £20 a year cost is not prohibitive. However for us, the six-inch screen is overkill, so we recommend the cheaper, 5-inch Go 5000 over this. If you're all about screen real estate, feel free to ignore us on that one.

Garmin nuvi 3490LMTAnother smartphone-like sat nav offering from Garmin This was among the first sat navs to take design cues from smartphones. To that end it's got a capacitive touchscreen, increased slimness and decreased thickness, live services via a connected smartphone app, and looks and feels great. Elsewhere, the admittedly steep sticker price buys you UK and Euro maps with updates for life, Bluetooth and voice control. You have to pay £17 for camera updates. This has been largely superseded by the Nuvi 3598LMT but remains available and a viable option. Its price hasn't come down as much as you might think, though.

TomTom Go 60Very strong budget sat nav option The best alternative to these high-end sat navs, other than using your phone, is to ignore the mid-range entirely and go for a cheap and cheerful device like this one or the Garmin Nuvi 2699. Giving you 6 inches of screen for around £120, this will get you from A to B safely. So long as you can get over the rather olde worlde resistive touchscreen and don't expect much beyond the navigation essentials, it's a solid effort.

TomTom Go Mobile (Android)New freemium model has some odd pricing but is generally both cheap and excellent Like its iPhone cousin, below, this is an excellent option, particularly once you're out of the middle of town – smartphone sat navs can struggle in built-up areas. It gives consistently decent navigation and has all the excellent key features of TomTom's standalone sat navs, including smart Traffic and speed camera alerts included in its price – and pricing is the most interesting element here, in some respects. You get the first 50 miles per month for free, then you can choose to pay nothing – and lose turn-by-turn navigation, but keep the ability to browse maps, for what that's worth – or £14.99 for a one-year sub, or £34.99 for a three-year sub. For that, you get the speed cam and traffic data thrown in. The only way that's a bad deal, compared to what TomTom was previously charging on Android – and is still charging on iOS – is if you don't want speed camera and traffic data.

TomTom (iOS)Reasonably priced, at least compared to a hardware sat nav This is an excellent option, particularly once you're out of the middle of town – smartphone sat navs can struggle in built-up areas, presumably due to weaker GPS reception and the fact they're always doing numerous other things at the same time as navigation. It's versatile, with a lovely UI, and gives consistently decent navigation. The price? Well, it's a lot cheaper than a standalone GPS unit, but a lot more expensive than your average app. On iOS the basic app is £26 but you'll need to add £18 per year for traffic updates and £16 per year for camera info. The app does offer enough to make it worth the outlay, in our humble opinion.

CoPilot Premium (iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8)A cheaper option than TomTom's sat nav app CoPilot Live Premium is a less effective navigator than TomTom's app but it does have several things going for it. It's cheaper at £20 for the basic app, but that price also includes camera and traffic info, so it's significantly cheaper if you want the full package. It's also very customisable and you can search addresses via geotagged photos and Google Search, as well as the more traditional methods. And while it's choice of routes can be eccentric, but generally speaking, it won't get you lost. Read: CoPilot Premium iOS app reviewhttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/car%20tech/Sat%20nav%20apps%20TT-scout-copilot/Scout-app-420-90.jpg 4. Telenav Scout (iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8)An even cheaper sat nav app option. In fact, it's free… This one costs nothing (for one country – additional ones are a few quid or you can get all available countries for £7.49) and performs adequately. Traffic info is a further £7.49 for a lifetime's worth of updates. Thanks to Foursquare and TripAdvisor integration, Scout is especially good for tourists. For some reason, in order to find the Scout app, you'll need to search for "Scout GPS Maps, Meetup & Chat" on Play and "GPS Navigation, Maps & Traffic - Scout (Sat Nav)" at the App Store. No, we have no idea why they've done that. Read: Telenav Scout reviewhttp://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/car%20tech/Sat%20nav%20apps%20TT-scout-copilot/nokia_here_maps-420-90.jpg 5. Nokia Here (iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8)Once the preserve of Windows Phone users only, this is now a real rival to Google and Apple Maps We're awaiting a full review of Nokia's sat nav app, which has just returned to the Android and iOS app stores. It's always been a very solid performer and it's at a compelling price point: nothing.

With no car charger or mount included, in contrast with its biggest rival, Garmin's Zumo350, this is strictly for bike only. We'll have a review of the 2015 update to this device with you shortly.

But right now we're in a tricky phase where drivers are being bombarded with more and more features and functions. That's a major problem when it comes to driver distraction. It's never a good idea for to take your eyes off the road ahead, even to glance momentarily at your navigation screen. That's exactly where the new Garmin HUD comes in. It's a head-up display that's compatible with literally any car, no matter how new nor how old. The idea is that is delivers heads-up navigation cues along with other information including your current speed and time to destination so that you can keep your eyes forward and on the road.

While it's still primarily for pedestrian navigation, it does do turn-by-turn car navigation adequately, and now offers traffic warnings and an ever-improving bicycle mode. For a lot of users, this (or Apple's steadily improving Maps) may be all you need. Clearly the need for a data connection limits its usefulness for longer journeys, but you can preview and store smaller map areas for offline navigation. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/44d7e205/sc/23/mf.gif

Amazon has announced that the latest over-the-air update for the Amazon Fire TV and Amazon Fire TV Stick will endow the micro-systems with the ability to connect to Wi-Fi networks that require web authorization to connect. While that may sound like some crazy jargon Amazon stitched together to sound edgy, it might actually radically impact the way you travel. These web-authenticated networks Amazon is referring to are typically found in hotels and around college campuses that give the establishments greater control by assigning credentials to its users. The Fire TV is the first set-top box to have this ability, according to Amazon, though if it hits a chord with the college campus crowd, it may not be the last. Amazon in the Amazon? The travel companion update was just one part of the larger patch rolling out to Fire TV. Other notable improvements are the ability for both devices to access Amazon Prime Music playlists, and the Fire TV to use USB devices for expandable memory and enabled pairing with Bluetooth headphones. What makes the travel portion so much juicier, however, is its implications for global nomads. Imagine taking the 9.9 oz Fire TV with you on a cross-country trek instead of a bulky laptop, or never missing an episode of Game of Thrones just because your hotel didn't have HBO. Are you a college student ready to cut the cord thanks to Amazon's killer app? Check out our Best online TV streaming services comparison.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/events/Microsoft%20cloud%20Oct2014/07-nadella-close-up-470-75.jpgMicrosoft's mobile ambitions have flitted from being a foreground issue to a background issue and vice versa within the company over the past decade. Windows Mobile, pre-iPhone, was class-leading and enabled a whole swathe of businesses to work on mobile, sending and receiving email in a time when everyone else was chained to their desk. But, after the iPhone was released, that all changed. The industry that Microsoft led changed dramatically, pulling the rug from under their feet and leading to a massive decline in the relevancy with consumers that Microsoft had come to enjoy from the 1990s through to 2007 and beyond. Nadella's visionLuckily for Microsoft, Satya Nadella is now CEO and his vision for Microsoft is far from that of Steve Ballmer, who believed in keeping Windows and Office at the forefront of Microsoft at the cost of everything else. Everything had to be made by Microsoft for Microsoft and, gradually, the company became more and more insular – and, in turn, fell further and further behind in the consumer world. Recently, however, the wind appears to have been blowing in a different direction. Rumours have been swirling that Samsung and Microsoft have been exploring ways to put Redmond's services on their smartphones instead of Google's. Samsung has, the company feels, become too reliant on Google and has been working on an alternative operating system named Tizen, and exploring partnerships outside of Google. It's important that the companionship of Microsoft and Samsung isn't seen as a way to top Apple. Up until recently, Samsung was shipping millions more phones than Apple and was dominating the Android market almost singlehandedly, giving them vast leverage over carriers and developers. Unfortunately, Samsung never managed to have leverage over Google which continued to develop Android how it wished, in stark contrast to Apple that develops iOS based around the hardware of the new iPhone or iPad. TouchWiz has always been Samsung's Android 'skin' – covering up stock Android and overlaying Samsung's own apps – and the rumoured partnership with Microsoft would have "rolled back" TouchWiz to focus on Office and various other Microsoft applications (including an Office 365 subscription of unknown length), ousting Google Docs and Google Mail and reducing the company's reliance on Google in the process. Gains for MicrosoftBut what does Microsoft get out of it? Firstly, the move puts its services in the hands of millions of users who wouldn't have previously been exposed to Outlook or OneNote. As I've written before, Microsoft's services are very much seen as applying to usage at work or in school, and then iOS and Android are used for leisure; this is a perception that Microsoft wants to change, which leads us to the second advantage of putting Microsoft services on Samsung phones. Windows Phone – which has now been renamed Windows 10 – has accumulated very little market share. When the iPhone was first released Steve Ballmer speculated that it would only have a 2-3% share going into the second decade of the 21st century. Little did he know that it would actually be Microsoft who ended up with such a small share of the market. In 2007 Ballmer may have been correct: if time had stood still and Apple had been content to keep a phone with no 3G and no video recording then perhaps the iPhone would have a measly market share, but of course, time did not stand still. The whole market changed as Apple updated the iPhone on a yearly basis, adding new features and releasing new software, attaching an easily understandable schedule to new phone releases that had previously been absent, turning a new iPhone into "the event". In the end, Microsoft has been left with the carpet being pulled from under its feet, searching for new ways to get services onto mobile devices. Cyanogen speculationIn January 2015 stories started appearing speculating that Microsoft might have been a lead investor in a new round of funding for Cyanogen, the company that produces Cyanogen Mod for Android. The idea behind this being that Microsoft was looking for yet another foothold in the Android market, especially as third-party modifications to Android are starting to become in vogue. The funding deal didn't go through – Cyanogen picked up $110 million (around £75 million, AU$145 million) without Microsoft – but there is no smoke without fire and it is interesting that Microsoft was looking to invest in a service that The Verge described as having "no software, hardware, services, or anything that seems to be directly relevant to Microsoft". By now it is clear that Microsoft is looking to expand horizontally into new sectors, updating various services on other operating systems before their own – Office for Mac has received a new version before Office on Surface – finally shifting focus from its own services to others if the move is more strategic and provides an ability to create profit. Puzzle piecesThe final piece of the puzzle – started under Ballmer and finished under Nadella – could be the $7.2 billion (around £4.9 billion, AU$9.5 billion) purchase of Nokia. Prior to the deal being finalised, Nokia had just produced its first Android smartphone, the Nokia X, which ran a skinned version of Android that looked similar to Windows Phone in many ways. At the time I wrote that "Microsoft could actually benefit from Nokia's experimentation with Android" giving them new knowledge of the platform. Microsoft has always produced software that runs on multiple manufacturers' hardware but has never used anybody else's software and we shall have to wait and see if that dynamic is going to change under Nadella. Producing software has been Microsoft's bread and butter and so shifting to distributing software made by others, or even hosting services on a large-scale on other's hardware – services that aren't Windows or Office for Mac – is a new step.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/DOWNLOADS/security/Wifi%20Protector/Wifi-Protector-470-75.jpgWi-Fi hotspots are everywhere and make surfing the web whilst you're out and about a doddle yet there are inherent risks that come with this and Wifi Protector is one program that can provide you with an impenetrable layer against it. Why you need itIt can be easy when using Wi-Fi hotspots to put up a wall of vigilance and use just a handful of websites when all you want to do is check your emails safely and securely. That's exactly where Wifi Protector can help. Wifi Protector is a lightweight program that can be told to turn on automatically and provide custom layers of protection against privacy, hacking, viruses and malware with a built-in VPN available as part of the bargain. The interface presents all the options as an easy to navigate window that allows you to pick the network you want to connect to from a choice of the Wi-Fi hotspots nearby and the protection can even be applied to your home network. It has two main functions available free of charge that are its advanced privacy protection and instant alerts every time someone tries to hack your system. The privacy protection works by hiding your IP address and routes all of your online traffic through a series of secure servers. This apparently puts your information out of reach of basically everyone including people on the same network, ISPs and even the government. Hacking alerts, meanwhile, shows a detailed list of every device connected to the same Wi-Fi network as yourself and it monitors everything passing over the network to alert you when a device tries to initiate an attack of any description. There is also a limited VPN option included in the free version that goes even further to protect your privacy. Those willing to fork out up to $79 (around £53, or AU$104) per year for the paid version get unlimited VPN connection time, antivirus and anti-malware protection, a choice of VPN country, faster servers, a history cleanser, email support and no ads. Protecting yourself whilst using public Wi-Fi hotspots is only going to become more critical in the years to come and Wifi Protector will make sure you stay safe at all times. Key featuresWorks on: Windows 7 and 8.1 Price: Free or $79 (around £53, or AU$104) per year Advanced anti-hacker protection: Wifi Protector scans the network you're connected to for all other devices before presenting them in a list and then informing you every time someone tries to hack your device. Privacy protection: Your IP address is hidden by Wifi Protector and then all online traffic is routed through a number of secure servers to protect it from ISPs, other network users and even the government. Built-in VPN: Protection can be stepped by turning on the VPN to route your connection through another country. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/44a63697/sc/15/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464619532/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a63697/sc/15/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464619532/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a63697/sc/15/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464619532/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a63697/sc/15/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464619532/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a63697/sc/15/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/224464619532/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a63697/sc/15/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/mobile_phones/Samsung/Galaxy%20S6%20Edge/Galaxy-S6-Edge-vs-G-Flex-2-hero-470-75.jpgSmartphones have reached the point where designs are more iterative than innovative. While the look and feel changes only slightly on new models each year, manufacturers haven't done much to wow consumers beyond the traditional rectangular slab of glass, metal and plastic. LG attempted to shake things up last year with first G Flex, a 6-inch smartphone with a curved display and slightly flexible frame, and Samsung soon followed with their own take on this concept, courtesy of the Galaxy Note Edge, a phablet-sized model featuring a display that wraps around the right side. These Korean tech titans wasted no time announcing all-new versions of these devices for 2015, and we sat down with both in an effort to determine whether curved and flexible displays actually enhance the experience or are little more than a marketing gimmick. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Samsung/Galaxy%20S6%20Edge/Press/GalaxyS6Edge-Press-05-420-90.jpg ScreenAlthough it won't hit stores until April 10 (with preorders now available in 20 countries), the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is little more than a variant of this year's Samsung Galaxy S6, featuring nearly identical specs with one notable exception: The Edge's display gently wraps around both sides of the front. Otherwise, the Galaxy S6 Edge offers the same 5.1-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display as its less curvaceous sibling, with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 that packs in a whopping 577ppi. The new LG G Flex 2 one-ups Samsung's latest with a 5.5-inch Full HD P-OLED display which curves slightly from top to bottom, and like its predecessor, can handle a bit of bending without breaking. Despite the larger screen, the G Flex 2 tops out at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 with a pixel density of only 403ppi, but LG attempts to make up for this shortcoming by comparing the curved display to its high-end televisions, offering a more cinematic viewing experience in landscape mode with three modes (Standard, Vivid or Natural) to make any content look great. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/LG/G%20Flex%202/Review/New/lg-g-flex-2-profile-side-420-90.jpg DesignWeighing only 4.66 ounces (132 grams), Samsung's curved Galaxy S6 Edge offers a premium feel that's slightly less ergonomic along the edges, but the aluminum frame and 7mm thickness make the device feel lighter than the Galaxy S6. Roughly the size of an iPhone 6, Samsung borrowed a somewhat annoying trait from Apple's latest flagship handset: The rear camera protrudes from the back ever so slightly, presumably a design compromise to keep the device slim and trim. Instead of curving around the edges, LG's G Flex 2 bends the entire case inward vertically, and because of the larger display size, its contoured body weighs slightly more at 5.36 ounces (152 grams) with a 5.87 x 2.96 x 0.37-inch (149.1 x 75.3 x 9.4mm) frame. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Samsung/Galaxy%20S6%20Edge/Press/GalaxyS6Edge-Press-01-420-90.jpg Processor and StorageJust because it looks so nice on the outside, that's no reason to be a slouch when it comes to what's on the inside. The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge obliges with an octa-core, 64-bit Exynos 7 Octa 7420 processor clocked at 2.1GHz capped off by a Mali-T760 MP8 GPU and a whopping 3GB RAM and up to 128GB of storage for good measure. LG mostly made up for the lack of oomph on the first G Flex by slapping an octa-core, 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor into the sequel, clocked at 2.0GHz with Adreno 430 GPU and the same 3GB RAM. Unfortunately, the built-in storage on the G Flex 2 maxes out at 32GB, but up to a totally insane 2TB of additional storage is available from an optional microSD card – a feature sadly lacking on the otherwise hardware-rich Galaxy S6 Edge. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/LG/G%20Flex%202/Review/lg-g-flex-2-guts-420-90.jpg BatteryIf you love the flexibility of swapping in a new battery when the current one runs out, neither of these curvy smartphones are likely to make you smile. It's too early to know what the battery life will be like on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but the 2600mAh power pack doesn't offer a whole lot of encouragement on this front. By comparison, the G Flex 2 packs a 3000mAh battery (reduced from 3500mAh in the previous model), but before LG can boast about having more power, there's the matter of that larger 5.5-inch display to consider. Thankfully, the fast charging capabilities of both models should have you back in action quickly – our own review of the LG G Flex 2 topped up from a complete discharge in just over an hour and a half. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Samsung/Galaxy%20S6%20Edge/Press/GalaxyS6Edge-Press-03-420-90.jpg CamerasSamsung hasn't held back when it comes to the Galaxy S6 Edge camera: Rocking a 16MP, f1.9 aperture sensor with dual LED flash and optical image stabilization capable of shooting 4K video up to 3840 x 2160, the rear camera is no slouch. By comparison, the LG G Flex 2 borrows liberally from the LG G3 to provide a 13MP sensor that otherwise checks off the same feature list above on the Galaxy S6 Edge, although the laser auto focus is one noteworthy addition. Neither model breaks much new ground with the front camera, however: Samsung touts a "best-in-class" 5MP sensor with 120º wide angle lens, while LG's tops out a 2.1MP, which the manufacturer claims is enough to use it as a "full HD camcorder." http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/LG/G%20Flex%202/Review/New/lg-g-flex-2-in-hand-420-90.jpg FeaturesThe remaining feature checklist is relatively the same for both handsets: Each ships with Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the gate, with the usual Bluetooth 4.1, NFC and 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac wireless on board. Aside from curved edges, the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge also offers built-in Qi and Powermat-compatible wireless charging. LG instead opted to include a selfie-friendly "Gesture Shot" mode on the G Flex 2, which provides a three-second timer on the front-facing camera that can be activated with a gesture; tilting the camera down allows the user to review images instead. Like the original G Flex, the sequel also features that bizarre self-healing back, which didn't do all that much to impress in our own review of the G Flex 2. More impressive is the Glance view, which offers a peek at what's happening without the need to actually turn on the device. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/mobile_phones/Samsung/Galaxy%20S6%20Edge/Press/GalaxyS6Edge-Press-04-420-90.jpg Galaxy Edge 6 vs G Flex 2 VerdictThis two-horse race ultimately comes down to just how curvy you want: Along the edges of the handset with the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, or on the entire smartphone with the LG G Flex 2. LG has a slight advantage since the handset is already available from two carriers for early adopters to take home, but to be honest, the whole concept of curved displays on a smartphone still causes us to scratch our collective heads more than be impressed. Samsung isn't likely to woo many potential Galaxy S6 buyers away from the flagship device in favor of the Galaxy S6 Edge either, but those in search of a more premium edition worthy of making friends envious will want to wait it out a bit longer – assuming you can afford it, that is. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464604075/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464604075/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464604075/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/224464604075/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/224464604075/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44a2c4ff/sc/15/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/televisions/Google/Chromecast/Review/chromecast-review-470-75.jpgGoogle has launched another Chromecast promo that the company no doubt hopes will drive customers to its inexpensive streaming dongle - and away from Apple TV. Anyone who buys a new Chromecast between now and April 19 get what's being described as $80 worth of free stuff. This includes a three-month subscription to Google Play Music, a month of Qello Concerts, three months of DramaFever, another three of Sesame Street GO, and one movie rental from Google Play Movies. Luring you inAs Engadget speculates, Google might be hoping to boost its user base to help in securing partnerships with content providers, like what Apple did with HBO. Perhaps similarly, Apple slashed Apple TV's price recently. It would be hard to go down from Chromecast's already low cost, though, so these offers may be Google's equivalent. There's nothing here to suggest that this is the case, but it's entirely possible that Google has some big content-related announcement(s) in store for Google IO 2015, and this could be their way of luring in some extra users before then. The Roku Streaming Stick is a worthy competitor

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/DOWNLOADS/utilities/Start%20Menu%208/start-menu-8-470-75.jpgMicrosoft's decision to get rid of the start menu in Windows 7 still affects millions of users across the world and Start Menu 8 addresses that with a program that is much more than just a way to get the menu back. Why you need itWhilst Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 may have brought back the start menu there are still plenty that use Windows 7 and 8 or simply want to harp back to the days of the original start menu. Lucky for them Start Menu 8 brings it back with a level of personalisation unmatched elsewhere. Once you've negotiated the bloatware during the installation, you can get to work creating the perfect desktop layout for your needs. There are several strands to Start Menu 8 and chief among these is of course choosing the perfect start button. You'll find everything from a classic Windows Vista icon to one based on the newer incarnations of the program and a range of custom options. You can even go online and find a completely different start menu icon that'll have your friends green with envy. Start Menu 8 really comes into its own when choosing the style of the menu itself with either 'Windows' or 'Modern' to pick and tweak. The personalisation options available here allow you to adjust the transparency of the menu, whether it should be Windows 7 or not, and even let you go back to the unpopular live tile interface. Further to this you can also set up the menu to your preference in terms of the program icon sizes, the amount of them and whether you want the option to switch back to the modern UI at any time. Customisation goes even deeper still through the chance to tweak exactly what is shown in the start menu in terms of control panel items, documents, pictures, music, games, my computer and various other administrative tools. Start Menu 8 can also serve as the opportunity to adjust your account picture and with the font and background colour also able to be changed, there's quite literally nothing on the start menu out of reach for users of this excellent program. Key featuresWorks on: Windows 7 and 8.1 Price: Free Bring back the start button: If you're downloading Start Menu 8 then you want a start button back in your life and the amount of options here will have you switching it up all the time. Personalisation heavy: You can change everything on your start menu to reflect the lengths you want to distance your machine from the new live tiled interface with everything from the Windows symbol down to the colour of the background open to change. Easy to use: The user interface is such that it is incredibly easy to use and every time you want to make a change it'll be as easy as clicking a button. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/449f0a69/sc/4/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515204750/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/449f0a69/sc/4/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515204750/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/449f0a69/sc/4/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515204750/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/449f0a69/sc/4/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515204750/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/449f0a69/sc/4/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/223515204750/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/449f0a69/sc/4/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBCNews/BIOS-screen-470-75.jpgTwo security researchers have discovered a flaw in millions of computer BIOSes that can be exploited by anyone regardless of their technical ability. The attack takes just two minutes to carry out, LegbaCore research Xeno Kovah and Corey Kallenberg told The Register, and that the lack of BIOS patches that have been installed means that practically every BIOS out there is open to infection. "The point is less about how vendors don't fix the problems, and more how the vendors' fixes are going un-applied by users, corporations, and governments," Kovah said, ahead of a presentation they're giving at the CanSecWest gathering. An unnerving precedentTheir presentation, entitled "How Many Million BIOSes Would You Like to Infect", will be given today and looks to discuss and highlight the dangers of BIOS attacks and in the process persuade system administrators to apply vendor patches, which is not being done. The two showed how easy it is to use the LightEater implant running the Talis platform to pilfer GPG keys from memory through the BIOS on Gigabyte, Acer, MSI, HP and Asus. In this case it could be used to steal passwords and encrypted communications. Kovah went on to explain that an unskilled attacker would only need two minutes of physical access to use LightEater to gain access to the target machine. "We'll boot up the infected HP system and show how LightEater can use the Intel Serial Over Lan technology to exfiltrate data from SMM (System Management Mode), without needing a NIC-specific driver. And we'll show the uber1337 'rot13' encryption which will blind network defenders to what the SMM attacker is exfiltrating," he added. Gigabyte most unsecureAmong the most unsecure BIOSes was Gigabyte's, where poor access controls meant that nothing was preventing attacks. "So we didn't even have to do anything special. We just had a kernel driver write an invalid instruction to the first instruction the CPU reads off the flash chip, and bam, it was out for the count, and never was able to boot again," Kovah said. As part of the presentation, they will reveal details of an automated script that was given to vendors. It can detect dangerous attacks against SMM capable of reading and writing all to system memory and the two researchers will be hoping their presentation can change the attitudes of administrators and end users.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBCNews/Windows%2010/windows-10-desktop-min-spec-470-75.jpgIt's been confirmed by Microsoft that Windows 10 will work at a lower resolution than both Windows 8 and 8.1 when it is released this summer. At the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) in China, the company confirmed that Windows 10 desktop PCs will only need a minimum resolution of 800 x 600 pixels in order to run the new OS, according to PC World. Windows 8.1, meanwhile, required a minimum screen resolution of at least 1,024 x 768 to access the Windows Store to run applications in the Modern user interface. Things are even more stringent for Windows 8 users as "snap apps" require a minimum resolution of at least 1,366 x 768. The other minimum requirements mirror that of the past two versions of the OS. This means that Windows 10 requires memory of at least 2GB for 64-bit or 1GB for 32-bit, minimum storage of 20GB for 64-bit or 16GB for 32-bit and at least DirectX 9 installed. Another difference is the screen sizes that the Windows 10 Professional and consumer versions can run on. The Professional edition requires just a 7-inch screen, whereas the consumer iteration needs an 8-inch screen. However, both of these will be more relevant for tablet manufacturers than PC makers. Windows 10 also ships with the UEFI 2.3.1 firmware interface and each copy of the OS will have a Trusted Platform Module built-in. Alongside this Microsoft also revealed the requirements for Windows 10 smartphones will be released at the same time as the fully featured desktop version and include a ream of different options for manufacturers of mobile devices. Earlier this week at the same WinHEC summit, Microsoft EVP of operating systems Terry Myerson said that Windows 10 will be landing this summer without a specific date. The new OS will be a free upgrade for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 users. Even those who own pirated versions of Windows will be able to take advantage of that offer. How to download the Technical PreviewThe latest version of the Windows 10 Technical Preview (Build 10041) was released to the "fast" ring yesterday with a number of tweaks including start menu transparency, enhancements to the Virtual Desktop experience, new languages in Cortana and a lot more besides. Anyone can download the Windows 10 Technical Preview by signing up as a Windows Insider right now to try it out before its commercial release lands in the summer.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBCNews/Skype%20for%20Business/skype-for-business-470-75.jpgHot on the heels of the Skype for Business technical preview, Microsoft has posted a new blog and video that reveals where it sees the platform will go in the future. The lays out Microsoft's vision for Skype for Business's future where it will quite literally be at your fingertips wherever you are. Running late for work? You will be able to plug into a conference call via your smartwatch. The video also also revealed that Skype Translator will play a role in Skype for Business.It goes on to show what looks like the 84-inch Surface Hub being used for an annotated two-way meeting between a researcher out in the field, a group in an meeting room and a participant using a smartwatch. " width="420">YouTube : An accompanying blog post from Zig Serafin, corporate VP of the Skype for Business team, mapped out the team's investments in more detail for the coming 12 months and there are three main features he detailed. The first new feature is enterprise voice and video calling within Office 365 that will kick off with a technical preview in the US this summer. Microsoft's delivers this by using a real-time network spanning all of its global data centres to ensure secure voice and video traffic within Office 365. PSTN calling in Office 365Secondly it is implementing enterprise PSTN (public switched telephone network) connectivity from within Office 365, which begins in the US this summer before rolling out globally soon afterwards. The final new feature is a range of meetings devices that have been specifically designed to be used in conjunction with Skype for Business. Created in conjunction with Crestron, Polycom and SmartSkype Rooms Systems brings the teleconferencing experience to over 50 million meeting spaces worldwide and the devices will be built on Windows 10-based platform. How to get the technical previewOne of the first planned devices is the Polycom RoundTable 100 designed for small and medium sized businesses (SMBs) and teams to experience Skype for Business inside small meeting spaces with an expected price tag of $1,000 (around £673, or AU$1,309). Microsoft also confirmed that Lync Rooms Systems devices will be compatible with Skype for Business. These new features will start trickling out once Skype for Business is fully operational next month. For now, you can download the technical preview from the TechNet Evaluation Center to get an early peek at some of the features.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBC/Miscellaneous/Cortana%20chit%20chat%20hero-470-75.jpgMachine learning is improving everything from image and speech recognition to predicting when machinery will fail. It's what makes Cortana smart enough to crack jokes and predict sports matches, as well as tell you when to leave early for your meeting because the traffic is bad. But there's still a long way for digital assistants to go before we can really trust them. We're still testing computer systems that try to help us, not on facts but on how well they communicate, claims Bing's search director Stefan Weiz in his recent book, 'Search'. "In systems like Siri or Cortana, 30 to 40% of all interactions people initiate are social or silly questions that probe the reality of the 'assistant' rather than inquiries the system was intended to answer. We want (and need) to believe we're engaging with someone who understands not only math but our humanity." Chit chat with CortanaThat's why Microsoft built the 'chit chat' system into Cortana that lets her sing songs and do imitations. "Humour has been a major focus for MSR in our partnership with the Cortana team," head of Microsoft Research Peter Lee told us. "Chit chat is a lightweight machine learning system and we can keep increasing the number of domains Cortana is able to chit chat with you about." The problem is how quickly Cortana can keep up with what's going on when it comes to breaking news rather than the seasonal humour the Bing team adds in, like tracking Santa or joking about the Seattle Seahawks. "In Cortana or any digital assistant there's the freshness of what Cortana knows about," Lee explained to us. "Cortana is continually learning. You can have a chit chat conversation ask about who is going to win the Seahawks game coming up next Sunday. But on the evening where things are erupting in Ferguson Missouri, it is not always obvious that Cortana will have the freshness of knowledge to interact." That's why, although Microsoft is having a lot of success with the currently popular deep learning systems for services like Skype Translator and the new image recognition in OneDrive (where you photos now automatically get tags like 'flower' and 'beach'), it's not putting all its eggs in that basket. "We're getting much smarter in coming to realisations about when to use deep neural networks or probabilistic models versus other learning techniques," Lee explains, and the next step is more dynamic machine learning systems that stay fresh. "With traditional models of machine learning you spend this enormous effort to get a huge corpus of data and train the system offline and deploy it. But we find in more and more situations that model isn't good enough. As machine learning becomes a more and more integral part of everything that we touch and interact with, I think the issues of maintenance of that intelligence and the freshness of that intelligence will become more and more important," Lee warns. The problem is something he calls 'ML rot'. "Right now, typically machine learning systems are static and their effectiveness sometimes degrades over time. Although work in machine learning is always advancing, a specific machine learning system isn't. At some point you have to gather a bunch of experts and go through huge efforts to train it and start anew. That's not scalable. You need a process where non-experts are able to maintain and advance machine learning systems, and where machine learning systems are more amenable to continuous learning." http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/TRBC/Miscellaneous/bing%20predictions-420-90.jpg Halo rankingsCortana isn't the only Microsoft system that's doing more of this continuous dynamic learning. "In Halo the TrueSkill ranking system uses a probabilistic model that is much more dynamic," he told us. Your ranking is how Halo suggests other players to play against. TrueSkill tracks both how good the system thinks each player is, and how certain it is that the skill rating is right. The more you play, the more certain the system gets about how accurately it's ranking you, and it has to do that in just a few games even though there are millions of people playing. The same tools can be useful at work too. TrueSkill is built with Infer.NET, the same system that Clutter uses to work out which email messages you'll want to see, using descriptions that are easy to write – and to update when you want to improve the system. Clutter learns from your behaviour, and at the moment it takes up to a day for it to change how it treats messages you've dragged back into your inbox when it mistakenly thought they weren't interesting. Delve, an Office 365 service that tries to prioritise the documents and attachments that people have shared with you, can take a couple of days to spot new documents you need to know about. If we're going to rely on these systems, they have to get faster. After all, we expect search engines to know about news as soon as it happens. "Businesses will increasingly get to the point where they want intelligent agents to be aware of the very latest thoughts, utterances, emails and documents by all of their colleagues, all of the time," predicts Peter Lee. "Even a machine learning system that retrains once a day will be too slow and unintelligent."

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/DOWNLOADS/utilities/file-viewer-lite-470-75.jpgSearching out a different program to view the plethora of different file types that is growing by the year is a thankless task. Help is at hand thanks to File Viewer Lite, which blasts that out of the water by allowing you to view over 120 file types under one roof. Why you need itSet out with an incredibly easy interface, File Viewer Lite lets you view over 120 files types completely free of charge. It goes beyond the mere viewing of files by letting you edit documents as if you were using an old school version of Microsoft Word, and you can play media files like you're inside any popular media player. Opening a file is as simple as selecting the file then opening it as you would in any other program, and there's no need to change any other settings to get it on the screen. Document viewing and editing is straightforward with an interface that's similar to the old versions of Microsoft Word. It will leave you wondering why you just forked out for that copy of Office 365. File Viewer Lite makes similarly light work of any images that are loaded by laying on a handful of editing features – including brightness, contrast, colours, sharpness, red-eye reduction, conversion to greyscale, shadows, resizing and rotation of the image in question. Media marvelMedia files are easily manipulated by File Viewer Lite with a range of the most popular audio and video formats supported by the program. It doesn't end there as File Viewer Lite also supports a number of lesser known formats and configuration files that can often be tricky to open. Every file has its own dedicated information bar at its side to inform the user on all the finer details. Should a file not open, this bar displays additional details about the file to help the user. Advanced users will also be happy to see the presence of two additional views that show the files in raw text and hexadecimal views that let you edit the raw text of each file. File Viewer Lite is one of those tools that, once it's arrived on your PC, becomes even more indispensable as time goes on. Key featuresWorks on: Windows 7 and 8.1 Price: Free or Plus+ version for $29.95 (around £20, or AU$39.40) Solve your file woes: With support for over 120 different file types you'll never be trawling the internet to open files every again. Images, videos, and music supported: There are built-in music and video players that support a huge range of file types and mean there's no reason to leave the program. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515149204/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515149204/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515149204/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515149204/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/223515149204/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448f0d5f/sc/4/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBCNews/unify-circuit-470-75.jpgHow do you integrate your various streams of conversation into a central dashboard? How do you synchronise, log and manage bits and voice together on one single window pane? Unify claims to have the answer with Circuit, its next-generation communication and collaboration platform. Dean Douglas and Stefan Reid, the company's CEO and CTO respectively, seem convinced that it could be the panacea for enterprise collaboration and communication troubles. The company relied on an array of tried-and-trusted open source technologies like Cassandra to build a cloud-based, mobile-friendly service and says that its unique selling point is its expertise in making the solution business-ready. "The hard part is the media server" claims Douglas. But there's more; one of Circuit's forte is the ability to handle 200 people concurrently in a video conference thanks to WebRTC. Beyond those numbers, the solution is constrained by the host CPU rather than bandwidth. In addition, it would be cumbersome to get 200 faces on one window pane to interact. Instead, Circuit can switch between video conference and broadcasting. But the real interesting part is what Circuit could potentially be used for. Because its API is opened, developers can use it as a platform to achieve surprisingly things especially in the realm of M2M or IoT. Reid mentioned the example of a Tesla car in Germany that could communicate with someone's Circuit-enabled phone to allow the latter to video conference only when the car is in autonomous mode. Partnerships the keyA lot of other IFTTT (If this then that) scenarios can be built using Circuit as the underlying platform. It makes it simpler for them to do so and helps Unify extend its ecosystem, not only in text or audio but also in video. Partnering is a key strategy to build momentum behind the solution, said Reid and the recent announcement that Unify was partnering with OpenExchange with its 100+ million users, goes in that direction. The impact WebRTC will make on the enterprise landscape http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/448b780b/sc/4/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515104726/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448b780b/sc/4/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515104726/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448b780b/sc/4/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515104726/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448b780b/sc/4/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515104726/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448b780b/sc/4/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/223515104726/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/448b780b/sc/4/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBC/Software/Windows%2010%20Jan%202015%20Hands%20On/collapse%20notification-470-75.jpgA new Windows 10 Technical Preview build is now rolling out to Windows Insiders. Microsoft announced that Build 10041 is now available to PC users who signed up for the Fast ring. "Like all of the previous preview builds this one comes with a collection of new functionality and bug fixes," said Gabriel Aul, Microsoft General Manager of the OSG Data and Fundamentals Team, in a statement. Build 10041 is the first Windows 10 Technical Preview update to participants of the Windows Insider program since late January. Microsoft recently announced that it will be pushing out more frequent updates to users in the Fast ring. If you're looking for stability rather than being among the first to try out new features, you should switch to the Slow ring. "10041 was built on Friday, and you're getting it less than 48hrs after the majority of our engineers in the Operating Systems Group receive it," Aul explained. What's new in Build 10041For now, Build 10041 is available through Windows Update. "The build will only be available through Windows Update for systems already running a previous Windows 10 build," Aul said. "We still intend to release ISOs for builds that go to the Slow ring, but Fast ring builds will be direct downloads only." Microsoft is tweaking the visuals and under-the-hood experience with the latest build. Now, the Start experience has transparency. The All Apps list is easier to use for tablet owners and comes with a larger button. For Virtual Desktop users, there are now more features to streamline your workflow. Now, you can drag a window into a Virtual Desktop. "You can also drag a window to the "+" icon to both create a Virtual Desktop and move the window to it in single step," Aul said in a blog post. "We also now support a filtered taskbar. This means that only the running windows in a particular Virtual Desktop will show in the taskbar." In addition to English, Cortana will be supporting more languages. Cortana is now live for China, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, and Spain. It's also easier to switch and join networks with a new network fly-out from the taskbar. For photographers, the Photos app also got some big improvements. The app now shows images from OneDrive in the Live Tile image rotation. Additionally, Photos now supports RAW image files from many camera models. Tablet users who prefer to ink will also see a new text input canvas for better handwriting recognition. Known issuesWhile there are plenty of attractive improvements to Build 10041, there are also a few known issues. Windows 10 is still in the technical preview stage and won't be fully ready until this summer. A few of the issues include not having the username and password boxes appear at login, some apps will not install or update due to licensing issue with the Store Beta, and the Mail, Calendar, and People app may be broken. If you're not ready to deal with some of the growing pains of being a tester in the Fast ring, you should switch to the Slow ring to get more stable builds. To switch to the Slow ring, click on the Start Menu from your Windows 10 system and choose PC Settings. You'll want to choose the Update and Recovery option, and navigate to Preview Builds. From there, you can choose to go with the Slow or Fast build. Windows 10 for phonesIn addition to the technical preview program for Windows 10 for desktops, Microsoft also has a Windows 10 for phones preview. The company says that an update is forthcoming that will support additional phone models. "We're working hard to bring you a new build of Windows 10 for phones as well but we need a bit more time for that one, and we still expect to support additional phones when we release it," Aul said.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBC/Security/secusmart-470-75.jpgWell before it was acquired by BlackBerry, German company Secusmart was approached by IBM to work on a project, one for a big customer, "probably their biggest customer in the world," Dr. Chistoph Erdmann, managing director of the Blackberry-owned security outfit, told me. As a system integrator, Big Blue liked it so much that it decided to use it and sell it to customers; "we couldn't think of a better partner to sell our products," Erdmann added. The SecuTabletA few months later, the mobile security startup was acquired by BlackBerry. That product was the SecuTablet, the tablet jointly announced by BlackBerry, Samsung and IBM, a few days ago. The tablet is a standard Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 with Knox and an additional layer of security provided by Secusmart. The demand for Android tablets made Secusmart a compelling option for BlackBerry, which like Microsoft, has been reinventing itself as a hardware-agnostic, platform-blind, solutions provider. But people want to have choice and the Korean Chaebol was the perfect partner. "Samsung did a great job with Knox," Erdmann said, "it is the closest thing yet on Android to BlackBerry when it comes to security," before adding that future versions will be more "powerful" without providing more details. Knox modifies Google's Android by securing the operating system before booting up, i.e. providing boot security. Nobody else has done that on the market yet – it's something that only an OEM can do. "Container technologies are only as good as the OS they're built on." Better security through microSDSecusmart has its own wrapper container, one that secures the data in transit, in use and at rest. Communication, for example, is only carried out through VPN while the cryptographic keys are stored on a removable microSD card (which explains why the technology won't be on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge or the Apple iPhone). Erdmann told me that a removable microSD called the Security Card was introduced because keeping the hardware token and the entity it protects separate was a popular customer requirement. Removing the card makes the secured apps (but not the smartphone) useless. "Let's say that it is ideal for spies," Erdmann replied when asked who the customers may be. Should you lose the card though, you will need to contact your managed service provider to get a new one. At 2,600 Euros (nearly £1900, $2750, AU$3600), it is four times more expensive than its consumer-grade sibling which means that it is only targeted at a niche audience for now. As for Knox, it remains a powerful differentiator for Samsung, one that will, in time, be extended to the rest of Samsung's mobile devices, and even beyond to IoT devices. "Knox is a security platform which will find its way outside mobile," Lee Epting, the newly appointed VP, Enterprise Business Team and Media Solutions for Samsung within EMEA, told us. For Samsung, the BlackBerry partnership gives it a formidable leverage in the enterprise market thanks to the tie-up with BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server).

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/internet/Internet%20Of%20Things/techtoaster_IoT-470-75.jpgCisco expects UK startups to transform the UK economy over the next decade with healthcare, retail, transport and energy companies in line to earn a combined £100 billion from the Internet of Everything (IoE) by 2025. A new study entitled "The Internet of Everything: Unlocking the Opportunity for UK Startups" found firms that look to connect people, processes, data and things across major sectors have the best opportunity to benefit from a share of the spoils from the 50 billion devices Cisco estimates will be connected worldwide by 2020. "The UK's startup community is a great source of innovation, and we're confident that we're only witnessing the first wave. In the coming months and years, we can expect these businesses to be at the forefront of the transformation of the UK economy as we fully embrace the possibilities of a digital future," said Phil Smith, chief executive of Cisco UK and Ireland. For what's at stake, STEM is crucialBreaking it down by industry, healthcare startups have the greatest opportunity of all, Cisco predicting they could access as much as £48 billion over the next 10 years, followed by retail (£37 billion), transport (£11 billion), and energy (£7 billion). To realise this, Cisco wants businesses, government and education to work in closer proximity in order to educate students and young entrepreneurs in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) skills essential for the IoE to grow at this rate. Regulations on the wayGovernment and regulatory organisations in the UK have already shown a willingness to embrace the new revolution. David Cameron plunged some £45 million into a fund in early 2014 for British firms working on Internet of Things (IoT) projects and Ofcom is devising on a regulatory framework to manage to influx of new connected devices. Cisco has a significant vested interest in the IoE and has already established eight innovation centres around the world in locations including London, Tokyo, Sydney, Berlin and Tokyo. At these centres, it showcases the IoE in real-world environments, provides settings for companies to jointly develop innovations, and fosters local and global innovation between universities, startups and mature technology vendors. The Internet of Everything is coming: Are you ready?

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/TRBC/Miscellaneous/Wi-Fi-Business%20Hero-470-75.jpgIntroduction and 4G securityWorking on the move is now commonplace thanks to advanced mobile digital technology. Being able to connect to the internet anywhere and at any time has become an essential business service. The plethora of Wi-Fi hotspots offer fast and cheap access. However, for business users, security must at all times be of paramount importance, which is why many mobile business users are moving away from using Wi-Fi to the range of 4G access services that are now available. F-Secure states: "Public Wi-Fi simply wasn't built with 21st century security demands in mind. When you use public Wi-Fi without any added security measures, you leak data about yourself from your device." So if public Wi-Fi is simply too insecure for business users, what's the solution? As the mobile phone networks have improved, speeds have moved past what can be expected with an average Wi-Fi connection, making 4G the new connection channel of choice for fast and secure internet access on the move. Advances in mobile connectivity offer speeds of up to 60 megabits per second in some places, which is far greater than can be expected with the average Wi-Fi connection, especially if you are trying to use a particularly busy Wi-Fi hotspot. The speed and convenience that 4G connections have delivered to business users in particular has meant their popularity has rocketed – so using 4G securely is now a priority. There are a number of simple steps you can take to ensure your 4G connection is always safe and secure: 1. Install mobile security applicationsWhen using mobile devices with 4G always ensure you have adequate protection installed. McAfee Mobile Security is a good example and is available for Android and iOS devices. 2. Take care with automatic updatesIf you are in the habit of simply downloading each new update you are offered for your 4G devices, start to assess where these updates are actually coming from. Ensure each update is legitimate and from your 4G service provider, and isn't malware disguised as an update. Android 4.3 removed automatic updates, so take a look at the version your devices are running. 3. Use a mobile VPN (Virtual Private Network)To ensure that sensitive data is protected as it moves to and from your mobile devices, setting up a VPN is an ideal solution. Both Android and iOS support the use of VPNs. Windows and OS X also have a range of VPNs to choose from. 4. Use strong passwordsThe password may still be the bane of many users' lives, but they are still the main way that Wi-Fi login is enabled. Develop a strong password regime and don't use the same password for all your logins. There are many password managers to choose from – we've rounded up the best of them in this article. 5. Forget the Wi-Fi networkTry and get into the habit of connecting to a public Wi-Fi hotspot for the shortest possible time. When you have finished ensure your device forgets the network. This prevents your device becoming vulnerable when you are not using it yourself. It is now a commercial imperative to ensure that all the devices that you use over a 4G network are protected by the latest anti-malware applications, and that every live connection you make to the internet is done over a secure channel encrypted to combat any eaves dropping. When working on the move, security should be your top priority. Securing public Wi-FiIf there is no option but to use a public Wi-Fi hotspot, follow these steps to ensure your connection is secure: 1. Connect using a reputable Wi-Fi providerThink about where the Wi-Fi hotspots you use are located. Are these connections legitimate? Check the credentials of the service provider before you connect and transmit or receive sensitive information. 2. Use a VPNAs we've already mentioned, one of the easiest ways to ensure your data is safe and secure is to always use a VPN. Today these are efficient and straightforward to use. Some good examples are Avast SecureLine, proXPN or Hotspot Shield. 3. Only connect with secure websitesWhen you are working try and resist the temptation to check your Facebook profile, or do some online banking. These are the websites cybercriminals target to gain personal information they can exploit. If you need to connect to these sites, use a service such as HTTPS Everywhere to encrypt your connection. 4. Install antivirus and malware applicationsThe connection you choose is only half of the security issue you face. Often, malware will infiltrate your notebook or phone and begin to crack your passwords. Keep your security applications up-to-date at all times. 5. Turn off all sharing optionsAt home you probably share your computer with a printer or maybe even an external hard drive. When you're using a Wi-Fi hotspot turn off the sharing options, as these can give cybercriminals an open door to penetrate your computer. 6. Monitor the apps you useAs apps have become so popular on mobile devices, cybercriminals use installed apps as a doorway into your phone or tablet. If one of your apps begins to behave strangely, delete the app immediately, as it may have been hacked. 7. Never jailbreak your phoneThis activity may offer new apps to try and use, but jailbreaking a device will instantly disable the built-in security. Only use apps that have come from a legitimate source on a phone or tablet that has not been modified in any way. 8. Turn off BluetoothSwitching off Bluetooth when you are not using it is a sensible option as it closes one channel that could be used to hack your device. It also saves battery life. 9. Encrypt your sensitive dataAll the data that moves over a VPN will be encrypted, but if you don't have a VPN available, encrypting your emails, for example if they will contain attachments with sensitive information, is a sensible precaution to take. http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/TRBC/Miscellaneous/Anatomy%20of%20a%20Hacked%20Mobile%20Device-420-90.jpg The Sophos Security Threat Report from last year concluded: "We have continued to diversify the devices in our environments, and those devices hold sensitive business data. The security ecosystem simply is not as well developed around such devices as the traditional PC environment." There is no doubt that 4G now delivers fast data connection speeds that are highly attractive to business users. It is, though, essential to become more security conscious, as 4G connections will increasingly become the focus of cybercriminals.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/DOWNLOADS/utilities/internet-download-manager-470-75.jpgKeeping control of all your downloads is tricky when browsers can get hold of your content in lightning quick time but what if there was something that gave you a boost in speed plus more control over your downloads? Welcome to Internet Download Manager. Why you need itDownloading content from websites has almost become too easy since browsers began doing the job for you and Internet Download Manager allows you to wrest back some of that control without losing out on any speed. The small program is at its best when integrated with your favourite browser to take over the task of downloading content and giving you an overall view of any files that have been obtained. Any downloads are then listed in the program's main page and are able to be managed outside the browser, meaning they can be installed when you're ready. Downloading programs straight from the browser is just a small part of what Internet Download Manage is all about. Anyone that has ever shutdown their browser in the middle of a large download will know the pain of having to try to start it up again and it, nine times out of 10, failing. Internet Download Manager can recover these downloads via its unfinished tab and resume them from where they stopped to save time. Like other utilities, ISPs often offer more bandwidth for those downloading files between certain times of the day and Internet Download Manager's scheduling function can be set to only grab files at certain times of the day or night to prevent you incurring significant usage bills. It can even be set to power off the computer once it has finished. Even though it doesn't offer an onboard search feature the fact that it's so lightning quick at getting downloads started is proof in itself that you should give Internet Download Manager a try. Key featuresWorks on: Windows 7 and 8.1 Price: Free Neat and tidy: Internet Download Manager keeps all your downloaded files finished or incomplete all in one place to be manager and installed whenever you are ready. Resume incomplete files: Browsers often don't let you resume big files once you finish your session and this program has a special facility to allow you to resume those files as and when you're ready. Scheduled downloads: For those that have capped data and need to download at certain times of the day this can be set up easily from within the program. http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/44835ead/sc/4/mf.gif http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515087802/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44835ead/sc/4/rc/1/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515087802/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44835ead/sc/4/rc/2/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515087802/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44835ead/sc/4/rc/3/rc.img http://da.feedsportal.com/r/223515087802/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44835ead/sc/4/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/223515087802/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/44835ead/sc/4/a2t.img

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/software/Microsoft/Windows%2010/press/windows10-carousel2-470-75.jpgIf you're eagerly awaiting the launch of Microsoft's new Windows 10 operating system, you only have to wait a short while longer. At the Windows Hardware Engineering Community (WinHEC) summit in China, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 will be officially available this summer. Despite revealing the launch window for Windows 10, Microsoft EVP of Operating Systems Terry Myerson did not give a specific date. "We continue to make great development progress and shared today that Windows 10 will be available this summer in 190 countries and 111 languages," Myerson wrote in a blog post on the company's website. "Windows has always been global with more than 1.5 billion users around the world and here in China hundreds of millions of PCs operate Windows today." Taking Windows furtherOnce considered the operating system for desktops and laptops, Microsoft is unifying its branding efforts under the Windows 10 moniker. Windows 10, as a brand, will be used for smartphones, tablets, PCs, laptops, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and even on the Xbox home gaming console. Microsoft has launched a number of initiatives with Windows 10, including making a push for universal apps that run across different screens. Most recently, Microsoft announced that it would be bringing greater security and convenience to Windows 10. New systems that ship with Windows 10 and support biometric security hardware will allow users to forego the password and use a fingerprint, face scan, or iris scan to log into Windows and apps, websites, and networks. Microsoft is calling its new native biometric authentication system Windows Hello. "I can't wait to see how amazing companies around the world will continue to innovate with devices running Windows 10," Myerson said in a statement. "Working together I know we can create some incredible experiences with Windows 10 that will truly delight our customers." Moving to 10Microsoft previously announced that consumers on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 on their PCs for free within the first year of release. Microsoft has not announced what the upgrade pricing would be after the debut year for Windows 10. Windows 10 is currently in technical preview and users can join the Microsoft Windows Insider program to trial the new OS before its commercial release. In addition to Windows 10 for desktop, a separate but concurrent technical preview is also in place for Windows 10 for phones.

http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/other/Generics/Typing%20on%20keyboard%20hands-470-75.jpgBiometrics replaced the trusty old password just yet. A new study from SecureAuth revealed that 39% of United Kingdom's IT decision makers (ITDMs) admitted their firms only use passwords, and that figure grows to 45% with public sector organisations. Meanwhile, 39% of firms that have over 1,000 employees also admitted that's the case with their companies as well. IT and telecoms companies bucked that trend with 74% of those companies using more than one method of authentication and the figures come as device manufacturers clamour to develop more and more biometric solutions. Opinium conducted the research for SecureAuth by taking a sample of answers from 500 ITDMs within UK organisations with 50 or more employees. In the future, 44% plan to change of enhance security model in the next two years and 28% think that companies will begin to use biometric security measures in the coming five years. Employees using three or more devicesWhen it comes to their attitudes towards employees, over half (54%) are worried they could compromise access to the corporate network, intentionally or unintentionally. This comes at the same time as huge growth in bring your own device and flexible working, and 42% of ITDMs admitted employees are using three or more devices to access corporate systems. The study also found that 33% of employee time is spent accessing the organisation's IT network remotely. Rather worryingly 20% of respondents said they "don't know" how many IT security policies their organisation has in place. Even worse, 24% admitted that passwords are altered less than two to three times each year.
