New library books
These works of new technology are now available at the Allen County Public Library. “Gemini: Stepping Stone to the Moon, the Untold Story” by Jeffrey Kluger Kluger offers a gripping, cinematic account of the perilous yet pioneering Gemini program, which — amid political pressure, tragedy and extraordinary scientific triumphs — laid the essential groundwork that made the Apollo moon landings possible.
PERSPECTIVE: What Happens After 16 Billion Passwords Fall Into Cybercriminal Hands?
Cybercrime didn’t just evolve. It scaled. Researchers at Cybernews recently uncovered a leak of 16 billion login credentials scattered across 30 separate datasets—an unprecedented exposure of personal and professional information. While the headline might suggest another recycled collection of outdated breaches, the reality is far more dangerous.

Large-scale spatially explicit analysis of carbon capture at cellulosic biorefineries - Nature Energy
Abstract The large-scale production of cellulosic biofuels would involve spatially distributed systems including biomass fields, logistics networks and biorefineries. Better understanding of the interactions between landscape-related decisions and the design of biorefineries with carbon capture and storage (CCS) in a supply chain context is needed to enable efficient systems.
Security failures confirm Microsoft is ‘too big to fail’
Microsoft is the world’s largest company. But the $3 trillion tech giant’s market dominance masks its vulnerability to cyberattacks, which pose a growing danger to businesses and governments that rely on its software. A series of recent cybersecurity breaches have laid bare the weaknesses of Microsoft’s defenses. The attacks should raise alarms inside the company and among policymakers responsible for safeguarding the global computing networks that Microsoft products undergird.

Russian interference, confirmed by the Mueller report, has been going on since Cold War
The Mueller report shows how Russia sought to undermine our election system the same way they’ve spread disinformation since the Cold War. In 2016, Russia launched the latest volley in a cyber cold war that spread cracks through the bedrock foundation of American democracy.

In 2016, Russia launched the latest volley in a cyber cold war that spread cracks through the bedrock foundation of American democracy. In addition to influencing potentially millions of Americans, Russia's activities led to an almost two-year special counsel investigation into our newly seated president that reached its climax in the release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report Thursday.

The Future of Cybersecurity is in the Cloud
For decades we have feared the cloud. During my time working counterintelligence for the FBI, we feared the Internet so much that agency computers functioned solely on an isolated intranet connected via hard cables. It’s no wonder to me that that government has still not embraced the unlimited processing power cloud computing affords.

Decision-makers who move fastest through the OODA loop are winners
During the Korean War, John Boyd, an Air Force pilot and military strategist, studied why the F-86 Sabre was so successful in shooting down the Russian MiG-15 of that generation. He discovered that the U.S. planes, while inferior in terms of speed, range and altitude, were more manoeuvrable and thus able to act faster than the MiG could react. Boyd characterised the Sabre's ability to turn in rapid response to the more cumbersome MiG as thinking and reacting ahead of the enemy.
CIA and NSA codes are on the web, and the leakers could be in the agencies
WikiLeaks published new information thought to be from the CIA in mid-November, releasing source code from a tool known as “Hive,” which allows operators to control malware. The dump, dubbed Vault 8, marked the first time WikiLeaks has released source code for a CIA spying tool. In a post on its website, WikiLeaks said: “This publication will enable investigative journalists, forensic experts and the general public to better identify and understand covert CIA infrastructure components.
Beware North Korea's most powerful weapon (hint: it's not a nuclear arsenal)
With all the talk associated with North Korea's prospects of launching a nuclear attack, there is often an overlooked, existential threat that continues to fly under the radar - cyber attacks. In truth, North Korea's cyber warfare operations pose a much greater risk to the West than the prospect of nuclear war. North Korea has invested heavily in cyber attack operations to disrupt its Western enemies.
Hunting Threats Before Threats Hunt Us
Remember file cabinets? Most businesses have auctioned them off or sent them home with employees. For many, paper is a thing of the past. An expansive communication network has collapsed a once-massive Earth into smartphones that fit into our pockets. Cloud computing has made all information available wherever our travels take us. We communicate at near the speed of thought, share ideas with only a few keystrokes, and manage global business and financial transactions without leaving our living rooms.
Insights from former FBI operative Eric O'Neill on state-sponsored Hacking
How serious a problem are state-sponsored hacking attacks for public and private sector organizations? Public and private sector organisations should have made cybersecurity a priority in 2014 when North Korea attacked Sony’s studios in Culver City, California. The Sony breach sent a warning flag that societies’ quest for rapid and efficient information sharing and ease of access to information had critically increased our vulnerability to cyberattacks. Unfortunately, we didn’t listen.
How North Korea's nuclear aggression masks a deeper threat
While the world has been holding its collective breath over North Korea's highly visible rocket flights and nuclear threats, the rogue nation has been carrying out a stealth campaign that threatens even worse mayhem. The North Koreans have launched 22 missiles in 15 tests in 2017, and US intelligence sources believe their most recent test detonated a 140-kiloton nuclear device, which the North Koreans claim was a hydrogen bomb.
Don't buy the hype, keep prescription drugs safe
It’s easy to take safe, reliable medicines for granted. Picking up drugs from the pharmacy, I hardly give a second thought about their safety and efficacy. But the lull of normalcy masks very real threats to a relatively well-functioning system, including counterfeiting, fraud and powerful narcotics in the wrong hands. Politicians that look for wedge issues promise the world about cheap drugs.
Nuclear War Isn’t North Korea’s Only Threat
WASHINGTON D.C. (CNN) — North Korea has launched 15 missiles in 22 tests in 2017. According to US intelligence sources, the most recent test detonated a 140-kiloton nuclear device, which the North Koreans claim was a hydrogen bomb. (That’s 10 times as powerful as the atomic bomb the United States dropped on Hiroshima in World War II.) The UN secretary-general has continuously condemned North Korea’s ballistic missile launches as serious violations of UN Security Council resolutions.
