Kids love to play dress-up, but parents don’t want them rummaging through the attic or climbing to the top of a closet without permission and proper supervision. The i-Dressup.com website provides users, including children, with a way to virtually dress up and design outfits without these potential dangers. But according to the FTC’s complaint, Unixiz, Inc., the company behind i-Dressup, violated the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, creating a different type of risk. COPPA creates two separate sets of protections to help parents control the personal information collected from their children online. First, companies covered by COPPA must clearly disclose…

Apologies to all fans Ancient Tridentosaurus, thought to be a well-preserved lizard from 280 million years ago.a new one The paper was published in “Paleontology” It is believed that early reptilian fossils are actually fake.Exclusive Jurassic World Domination bonus feature clipThis striking rock was discovered in the Italian Alps in 1931; against the dark background, the soft tissue of the limbs and tail appear perfectly untouched by time.”Unique preservation method Triodontosaurus “It has puzzled experts for decades,” said Evelyn Kustatscher, a paleontologist at the South Tyrol Museum of Nature at University College Cork. release. “Now, it all makes sense.

A group of Korean researchers at Yonsei University discovered that it was filled with beef. The lab-grown rice grains are infused with cow muscle and fat cells, so they’re part plant, part meat. The rice is also an appetizing bright pink color, which is often the case when meat enters the picture.The team hopes to eventually provide a cheaper, more sustainable source of protein with a much lower carbon footprint than real beef.This is also a time saver for those who like to eat beef rice bowl – rice yes Beef Bowl.Here’s how they achieve this culinary delight. The researchers…

If a pack of sugarless gum gives you severe stomach pain, gut bacteria may be to blame. A new study in mice finds a link between the gut microbiome and food intolerance to sorbitol, a common sugar substitute. The findings may even lead to effective treatments for the condition, although more research is needed to confirm this link.Denis Villeneuve does a great job building Dune LEGO setSorbitol and similar ingredients are Sugar alcohol, also known as polyols. They are derived from sugars such as sucrose but have fewer calories (about half to one-third), which makes them a popular thickener and…

A new report from the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) lays out the growing difficulties organizations face in remediating security and achieving visibility from code to the cloud.Produced in partnership with security firm Dazz, the report surveyed more than 2,000 IT and security professionals to better understand current cloud environments and security tools. The results were less than confident.Less than a quarter (23%) of organizations surveyed reported full visibility into their cloud environments. About two-thirds (63%) of respondents consider duplicate alerts to be a moderate or major challenge, while a similar number (61%) use three to six different detection tools.At the…

This is good news for organizations that fell victim to the notorious Rhysida ransomware. A group of South Korean security researchers have discovered a vulnerability in the notorious ransomware. The vulnerability provides a way to decrypt encrypted archives. In a technical paper about their findings, Kookmin University researchers described how they exploited an implementation flaw in Rhysida’s code to regenerate its encryption keys. “The Rhysida ransomware uses a secure random number generator to generate encryption keys and subsequently encrypt the data. However, there is an implementation vulnerability that allows us to regenerate the internal state of the random number generator…

Introduction Effective project management is crucial for the successful delivery of software development projects. Without a proper management structure in place, projects can experience scope creep, delays, and budget overruns. In this article, we will discuss top tips for establishing a solid project management structure for software development. Define Clear Project Goals and Objectives Before kicking off a software development project, it is important to define clear goals and objectives. This sets the direction for the project and helps keep the team focused on what needs to be achieved. For example, instead of a vague goal like “improve user experience,”…

Albert Evans, Director of Cybersecurity and Compliance, ISO New England Inc. Albert Evans, Director of Cybersecurity and Compliance, ISO New England Inc.Organizations are increasingly adopting comprehensive strategies to reduce risk in dynamic cybersecurity environments. The integration of the MITER ATT&CK Framework (MITRE, 2022), Factor Analysis of Information Risks (FAIR) (FAIR Institute, 2022), and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (NIST, 2022) resulted in A powerful framework for cyber risk management approaches. This integration revolutionizes the cybersecurity landscape by combining these approaches.The MITER ATT&CK framework is a detailed knowledge base of adversary tactics and techniques…

Enrique Leon, AI and Cloud Enterprise Architect at American Sugar RefiningArtificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used to generate content such as text, images, music, and videos that can influence human beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors. However, not all AI-generated content is accurate, reliable or ethical. Some AI systems may intentionally or unintentionally produce misleading, biased, or harmful content, which may have negative consequences for individuals and society. Therefore, it is important to understand how people assess the trustworthiness of AI-generated content and how it compares to human-generated content.This article explores the psychological factors that influence people’s trust in AI-generated content and…

In the intricate world of navigation, insects display extraordinary abilities despite their small brains. While this efficiency is difficult for robots to mimic, recent research has revealed the underlying mechanisms driving insect navigation and its potential applications in robotics and computing.The path to energy-efficient computingInsects, with brains barely larger than a pinhead, can effortlessly navigate complex environments, avoid obstacles and traverse tight spaces. Elisabetta Chicca, a physicist at the University of Groningen, emphasizes the importance of understanding insect brains to advance energy-efficient computing. Chicca’s latest breakthrough involves developing robots that mimic the behavior of insects, providing insight into their remarkable…
