Legacy SIEMs are outdated The proof point I offer is the fact that whenever a breach occurs, the SIEM vendor claims to have seen it, yet the breach happened anyway. That was the case with many big-name businesses that suffered a newsworthy cyberattack. Target, Sony, and many others all echoed the same. The SIEM saw it, but the security team missed it.

It’s almost time for the iPhone 8 (and/or iPhone Edition) which means it’s been nearly one year since the jet black iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus shipped. When Apple introduced the glossy black finish, it warned customers that jet black is prone to ‘fine micro-abrasions’ and recommended using a case.

The video above came from Senior iOS Architect at Honda R&D Americas Duane Cash, and he is claiming to have come up with a method of controlling Siri through “a brainwave-reading device.” This isn’t the first video that has popped up online claiming to show brainwave activity controlling an iOS device, but many past videos have been faked.
