16.11.2005Nvidia GPUs support DX10.1 features in Far Cry 2
bit-tech: A few days ago, we learned that Ubisoft's hugely anticipated free-roaming shooter Far Cry 2 would support DirectX 10.1 extensions
for cards that support the latest-available version of Microsoft's API.
Today, we have gathered some more information on the
implementation and it's quite an interesting one because the capabilities are also enabled on all Nvidia GeForce 8, 9 and GTX 200 GPUs, even though
they don't comply with DX10.1's requirements.

22.10.2008Tech Spending Slows Significantly
With economic hardships reaching into business and financial sectors around the world, it was only a matter of time before we saw the tech industry
affected. Techtel Corporation released findings today announcing that overall tech spending has fallen drastically over the last four quarters and
that only an estimated 3.9% of companies are expected to increase their IT spending. Michael Kelly, CEO of Techtel, remarked: " Tech's
hesitation about future demand is well-founded. U.S. IT spending is slowing and expected to continue doing so. It appears we may enter a period of
declining IT spending during the second half of 2008. "

25.10.2007Tech giants team for online ID cards
A group of software and online payment companies are teaming up to find a better way than passwords to protect, and prove, your identity online.
Problems with passwords are well known - people require ever more passwords which means they either get forgotten, or people use the same word for
several different services which is a security risk. The new group will seek to find open standards to make it easier to prove your identity online
without using dozens of passwords and usernames.
Equifax, Google, Microsoft, Novell, Oracle and PayPal will work together to create
"Information Cards" - online cards like those in your wallet. Different cards can contain different levels of information and can be used to log in
to different websites instead of using a username and password. Some may contain just a user name and password, others address information.

30.06.2008University of Utah Meets the Wrath of Conficker
It seems that nobody can escape the widespread adoption of
Conficker; not
even the University of Utah!
Today, the virus infected over 700 machines on the campus, including the ones situated in the school's
three hospitals. Despite its reputation for having the ability to slow computers and steal personal information, it seems that compared to the
University's incredible firewall, Conficker is no match. As of yet, no medical files or any other secure information has been compromised.
Personal computers such as laptops that are running Windows and connected to the University network however, have not been so lucky. Hungry for
information at the command of its masters, Conficker could easily be collecting login information, credit card information, banking info, etc. The
University faculty has advised students to take extra precautions until the virus has been eradicated from the network and from their systems.
Nothing bad seems to have happened yet, but we haven't been enlightened yet, as to the full extent of Conficker's power. For now, the faculty
is on-guard, and working overtime removing the virus.

16.09.2008Windows registry forensics guide: Investigating hacker activities
When analysing a compromised Windows system, investigators and system administrators can glean enormously useful information about attackers' actions
by looking through the Windows registry, a hierarchical database storing tens of thousands of settings on a modern Windows box. Whether an outside
attacker compromised the box, an inside employee engaged in nefarious activities, or malware inexplicably infected the machine, the Windows registry
contains wonderful gems of information for investigators. In this tip, we'll look at what information investigators can gather about user activity
via the registry. Next month, we'll focus on how investigators can pull useful registry information associated with the overall operating system.

Disconnected phone lines, old computer software, no instant messaging, no outside access to e-mail accounts and no social networking - these were

it hard to identify the configuration of computers in the White House to do any useful updates. The team members, who were used to working on Mac
systems, found computers with very old versions of Windows installed and in fact not enough computers for use. Laptops were also assigned to only a
few people.
