Today's Story Highlights

Adopt a Maintenance Mindset: Protect IT

As part of National Cyber Security Awareness Month, the National Cyber
Security Alliance is advising all computer users to "Protect IT" by
taking precautions such as updating to the latest security software, Web
browser and OS. The nonprofit public-private partnership, which works
with DHS and private sector sponsors, advised computer users on ways to
protect their personal data.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86304.html

New Tech Vetting Law in SF Could Fuel Regulatory Trend

San Francisco officials want to get ahead of the emerging technology
curve by prequalifying and regulating startup tech proposals before
products become available to consumers. That approach is a developing
trend in the U.S., according to Arle Lommel, senior analyst at CSA
Research. If approved, the creation of a city-controlled regulatory
office would invert the historical norm.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86302.html

Google Rolls Out Pixel 4 Phone, Pixelbook, Nest WiFi and Pixel Buds

A new flagship smartphone, a slick refresh of Pixelbook Go, some home
gadget improvements and a revamp of its wireless earbuds highlighted
Google's annual hardware event in New York City. The latest models of
Google's flagship smartphone, Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, base priced at
$799 and $899 respectively, will have wider distribution, as they'll be
available from all major U.S. carriers.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86297.html

4. 'Serious' Linux Sudo Bug's Damage Potential Actually May Be Small

Developers have patched a vulnerability in Sudo, a core command utility
for Linux, that could allow a user to execute commands as a root user
even if that root access was specifically disallowed. The patch prevents
potential serious consequences within Linux systems. However, the Sudo
vulnerability posed a threat only to a narrow segment of the Linux user
base, according to Todd Miller, a maintainer of the open source Sudo
project.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86298.html

Safari's Safe Browsing Option Raises Privacy Concerns

An option in Apple's Safari browser that's supposed to protect Web
surfers from malicious sites has raised privacy concerns in some
quarters. The option, called "safe browsing," is turned on by default.
Depending on where an Apple device is registered, the browser could be
sending IP information to Tencent, a conglomerate with close ties to
China's government.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86294.html

Virtual Pets, Virtual People and Virtual Immortality

One of the interesting and somewhat underappreciated aspects of the
recent Qualcomm wireless event is that 5G will make realistic AR avatars
possible. This advance will be possible because with high bandwidth and
very low latency, processing could shift from the device to the cloud.
Coupled with the rollout of distributed data centers, this means you
could have realistic virtual pets and friends.

Today's Story Highlights

Setting Up Roadblocks to Social Engineering

Since the dawn of the Internet age, criminals have looked for ways to
profit on unsuspecting people while they browse the Web. Viruses,
malware and other schemes were invented to infect and infiltrate
systems, both at the enterprise and consumer levels. One of the most
successful forms of cybercrime is social engineering, also known as the
con man of the Internet.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86287.html

Stop Cyberattacks in Their Tracks: Secure IT

Stopping cyberattacks requires diligent behavior. One of the themes of
this year's National Cyber Security Awareness Month, or NCSAM, is that
all computer users should take steps to Secure IT. That means shaking up
the passphrase protocol by using not just strong passwords but strong
and unique passphrases. Everyone should double login protection through
multifactor authentication.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86286.html

Austrumi Linux Has Great Potential if You Speak Its Language

Austrumi Linux is an unusual distribution. With a little more polish, it
could be a good tool for running Linux on any computer you touch without
changing anything on the hard drive. Last updated on Oct. 3 to version
4.08, Austrumi Linux is a bootable live Linux distribution based on
Slackware Linux. It was created and is maintained by a group of
programmers from the Latgale region of Latvia.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86285.html

Apple Touts Games, Music, TV in macOS Catalina

New versions of operating systems are usually about slick interfaces and
improved performance, but that's not what Apple was flogging about macOS
Catalina upon its release. One of the hot new additions in the OS is
Apple Arcade, a game subscription service featuring a batch of new,
exclusive games. Also bolstering macOS Catalina's entertainment chops
are new music, podcast and TV apps.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86280.html

Sonos Launches Rent-a-Speaker Pilot Program

Subscription models have taken hold in everything from software to
smartphones, and now Sonos is testing the idea in the premium wireless
speaker market. The Santa Barbara, California, company has launched a
pilot program limited to 500 homes in the Netherlands, which allows
consumers to gain access to Sonos hardware for the equivalent of about
$16.46 a month.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86279.html

Devs Engage in Soul-Searching on Future of Open Source

Two things to avoid in online discussions are politics and religion.
Open source technology may be an explosive third topic that software
developers should be wary of subjecting to a virtual debate. Automattic
CEO Matt Mullenweg and Ruby on Rails creator and Basecamp cofounder
David Heinemeier Hansson got into an all-out Twitter slugfest last week
about the role of open source.
