Today's Story Highlights

Biz Brass Kept in Dark About Breaches
With breaking news about data breaches a common occurrence, you'd think
security threats to an organization's data would be something CEOs and
their management teams were kept in the know about. Apparently not. Some
80 percent of IT pros in the U.S. and UK said they did not frequently
communicate with executive management about potential cyberattacks to
their organizations in a recent survey.

Lenovo Rising, IBM Evolving
The new deal IBM and Lenovo announced last week showcases that the
companies are on very different paths toward two widely divergent but
equally powerful goals in what is a rapidly changing market. Lenovo is
on a path to dominate the hardware side's second technology wave, while
IBM is jumping to what may be the fourth technology wave. IBM dominated
the first wave -- mainframes.

Foxconn Could Be Coming to America
Infamous technology manufacturing giant Foxconn Technology Group is
considering expanding operations to the United States. The Taiwanese
company is a major supplier for Apple's iPhones and iPads, so
speculation has already begun that a move to the States would further
solidify the companies' already-strong relationship. Foxconn Chairman
Terry Guo described the U.S. as "a must-go market."

The Case of the Missing OS, or Did Apple Eat Pear?
Here in the Linux community, it's no secret that there are more flavors
of our favorite operating system than most of us can keep track of. That
doesn't mean, however, that one can just up and disappear without anyone
noticing. Case in point: Pear OS. One day it's freely available for
download, offering a remarkably Mac-like experience that's nevertheless
based on Linux.
