Your fingerprints are remotely stolen by Hackers from your Android phones

Researchers have found , how hackers attack your smartphones and steal your fingerprints secretly. At " Black Hat Conference " in Las Vegas by FireEye researchers have explained new ways of attack to extract the users fingerprints from andro id phones.  Android phones which have "fingerprint sensor" are in danger like Samsung , HTC , Huawei , all the latest having the fingerprint sensors . Four attacks outlined by the researchers, one in particular -- dubbed the "fingerprint sensor spying attack" can remotely harvest fingerprints in a large scale,   The Attacks which were declared on HTC and Samsung S5 has been allowed by the devices because the manufacturers did not lock the sensor efficiently  The sensor is actually protected by the "System Privileges " instead of root which makes it easy to attack  According to "ZDNet"    victims' fingerprint data directly fall into attacker's hand. For the rest of the victim

Arduino Studio IDE launched

Open source IDE builds on Adobe’s Brackets Editor Arduino LLC has announced the launch of a new web-based integrated development environment (IDE) for its programmable microcontroller development boards. Based around Adobe’s Brackets Editor, the alpha release of the open source Arduino Studio supports Linux and other platforms as well as being available as a Brackets Extension to run with in a  browser on any device. Arduino Studio is described by the company as “a work in progress,” designed to be suitable for Arduino Studio IDE launched ARDUINO use as a stand-alone, cloud-based or on-board embedded IDE. As well as a new user interface, Arduino Studio includes code completion and an in line quick language reference system, both designed to speed up coding for experienced Arduino users and make the platform as accessible as possible. While Arduino Studio can be expected to  replace Arduino IDE in the future, no time scale has been provided for its full release. for d

How People Weld Under Water

Find out how we patch up holes in vessels and pipes in a watery environment Joining and fusing materials together has been a key part of engineering for centuries, but what about doing it underwater? High-pressure welding, more formally called hyperbaric fabrication, can now be undertaken in water in two ways. Dry welding is done in a closed chamber, while wet welding can join metals completely exposed to water.  An example of a dry welder is the Deep Rover submersible. Primarily used for exploration, this vehicle can hold up to two people in a sealed sphere and is capable of lifting chunks of metal  too. Wet welding, on the other hand, creates a bubble of carbon dioxide around the weld point while the repair is made. Dry welding is safer due to the added protection but tends to be more  expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, dry is better for larger, more involved projects while wet is generally used for smaller tasks. Both are used primarily to repair marin

How The Skype Translator Works

No need to take language learning classes , this task will be accomplished by "Skype" The immensely popular internet phone and messaging service Skype has approximately 300 million monthly global users. For its next trick, the Microsoft-owned service plans to break down language barriers by automatically translating multilingual voice calls. This bold claim is backed up by some impressive technology. Using a combination of existing speech recognition, text-to-speech and machine translation technology, the program will translate any word you utter into a text format of the desired language. Current translation programs use a similar system but can currently only work if they are in the same room. The new Skype software will look to change that, allowing for fully translated international calls. One stumbling block is the vast amount of different dialects and accents used all over the globe. Because of this, some say there will always be a need for human i

How Targeted Advertising Work

How it is possible that internet accurately know what kind of things we "like" or "dislike" Advertisers use a range of information  about you, like your age, gender and  location, to flag up relevant ads If you look at a product on the web you may find that it follows you around, popping up in adverts on seemingly unrelated websites.  This is one of the simplest forms of targeted advertising. When you visit a website, third-party advertisers leave tracking cookies in your browser, enabling them to monitor your online activity and remind you later of items or services you looked at earlier. Search engines like Google collect data about the searches performed from a particular IP address, taking into account search terms, but also the user’s location.  They even target advertising based on keywords collected from the messages in your email inbox. Your activity on Google-owned sites like YouTube is also fed back to advertisers
