In the WinHEC conference that occurred in China on Tuesday (09/17/2015), Microsoft announced that the latest operating system Windows 10 will be equipped with a fingerprint-based security technology, facial recognition, and iris.
The information summarized Compass Tekno from ZDNet, Wednesday (03/18/2015) states that a variety of new methods based biometric called by the name "Windows Hello" will be used to authenticate the login instead of the traditional password.
The introduction of biometric-based security technology such as face identification is relatively safer and easier to use than typing in keywords that are vulnerable stolen or broken easily.
Enough to appear in front of the computer, Microsoft said, a user would immediately be given access to the system. Demonstration of these capabilities can be seen in a video released by Microsoft under.
Together with Windows Hello, Microsoft also introduced the API "Passport" so that third party developers can also take advantage of biometric technology based login in Windows 10, for example in the application, network, or a web page.
Windows 10 biometric data is stored locally on the user's computer and locked cryptographic data. This minimizes the risk of data theft biometry because the information is not transmitted to the outside of the computer.
It should be added that the biometric-based security technology of Windows 10 requires special hardware support.

Updates Windows 10 Will like BitTorrent

Windows 10 operating system is still in the process of finalization by Microsoft. The Redmond-based company reportedly is preparing a build 10036 were allegedly going to support the peer-to-peer (P2P) to download the application or OS updates.
However, quoted KompasTekno from Ars Technica, Sunday (15/03/2015), the P2P method will be an optional feature alone, and if enabled, will have two modes, the system will be able to receive updates from other systems on the same network, or from local network and the Internet as well.
During this time, the update method which is owned by Microsoft is a PC to download the updates separately. The way it was complained of by large corporations because it requires a large bandwidth.
Moreover, certain updates reach the size of a gigabyte in size. Of course in addition to spending a lot of bandwidth, also waste a lot of time.
Large companies have been able to avoid wasting it by using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), which download all updates once to a local update server owned by the respective companies.
Computer-konmputer others connected to the server and then get an update from the local system.
Technology is not yet clear who will use Microsoft to update its P2P. Microsoft itself has added a P2P API since Windows XP SP1, but the API is not yet widely used software.
But in 2013, Microsoft acquired the company known Panda Networks, a company that also developed the P2P software, such as BitTorrent which has a special server and intelligent bandwidth allocation.

Microsoft makes more Office features free on iPads

Microsoft Corp on Thursday said users of its Office suite of applications on Apple Inc's iPad would be able to create and edit documents for free instead of paying for a subscription, in a bid to capture more mobile users. 

The move is the latest, and one of the most dramatic, in Microsoft's new strategy of getting customers to use their services regardless of device or operating system, rather than lose them to a proliferation of free or cheap alternatives. 

The new strategy, led by new Chief Executive Satya Nadella, is a recognition that the dominance of Windows and Office on PCs has not translated to the fast-growing mobile arena, where Apple's phones and tablets and devices running Google Inc's Android rule.

Nadella's first major move after taking the helm in February was to make Office available on the iPad, which has attracted 40 million users. 

By downloading a free app, users could read Office documents in Word, Excel and PowerPoint but had to buy a subscription, starting at $7 per month, to create or edit them. From Thursday, that will now be free.

Microsoft also announced on Thursday it is releasing Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps for the iPhone for the first time, and rolling out a test version of those apps for Android tablets, which are expected to be released fully early next year.

The world's largest software company still has not released fully touch-optimized Office apps for Windows, but hinted on Thursday that they would be released with Windows 10 sometime next year.

Microsoft's Office suite is still the gold standard for work applications on the PC, but easy to use, touch-friendly work apps like Haiku Deck, Quip, Smartsheet and Evernote, plus a full range of Google Apps, have quickly gained a following among younger users who regularly create and consume content on mobile devices.

On Thursday, business networking site LinkedIn Corp said it would integrate Haiku Deck - a free alternative to Microsoft's PowerPoint - into its SlideShare platform, where 70 million users create and share presentations.

Twitpic Announces Shutting Down

Photo-sharing site Twitpic said Thursday it would close down operation this month despite its previous announcement that the site had found a mysterious buyer.  

Twitpic founder Noah Everett said users had time until October 25 to export their files.

"I'm sincerely sorry (and embarrassed) for the circumstances leading up to this, from our initial shutdown announcement to an acquisition false alarm."

On September 4, 2014, the site announced shut down after a trade mark dispute with social network Twitter.

Twitter threatened to cut off Twitpic's access to their interface if the photo-sharing site did not give up their trade mark.

Launched in 2008, Twitpic was perhaps the best-established third-party image-sharing service for Twitter users, letting them link to photos in tweets. 

It was a source of citizen journalism as tweeters spotted newsworthy events -- such as the Hudson River plane crash -- captured the action on their phone, uploaded images to Twitpic and shared the link on Twitter.

XP included in IE security update

Microsoft has included Windows XP in a security update issued to fix a flaw in its Internet Explorer programme that left users vulnerable to attack.

The 12-year-old software was discontinued from Microsoft's automatic updates earlier this month, as the technology giant attempted to encourage users to upgrade to newer versions of its operating system.

But with so many individual and business users still running XP - including the UK Government - Microsoft has included it in this update.

Microsoft group manager of response communications Dustin Childs said: "We have made the decision to issue a security update for Windows XP users.

"Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, and we continue to encourage customers to migrate to a modern operating system, such as Windows 7 or 8.1. Additionally, customers are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of Internet Explorer, IE 11."

The security issue was discovered earlier this week, with the Windows software developer issuing a statement via their website explaining how hackers could gain access to a user's computer and all its settings by drawing them to malicious websites via links sent in emails or other messages.

According to Microsoft, any successful hacker could have gained full access to the victim's user account should a malicious link be followed, meaning the hacker would be able to change passwords and access any data linked to that account, including email and other personal data.

In a blog post on the company website, general manager of trustworthy computing at Microsoft Adrienne Hall said: "The security of our products is something we take incredibly seriously, so the news coverage of the last few days about a vulnerability in Internet Explorer has been tough for our customers and for us.

"We believe, and take a huge amount of pride that, among widely used browsers, IE is the safest in the world due to its secure development and ability to protect customers, even in the face of cybercriminals who want to break it.

"Even though Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft and is past the time we normally provide security updates, we've decided to provide an update for all versions of Windows XP, today. We made this exception based on the proximity to the end of support for Windows XP."

The flaw comes just weeks after the discovery of the Heartbleed bug - a two-year-old weakness in the encryption used to protect sensitive data such as passwords when they are sent between computers and servers, which is still being tackled with patches to fix affected websites.
