Echoes of the coming revolution: Black gold economy in peril as Obama gradually shifts America off oil

Obama…the future is not black gold, Jonathan (caption ours).

Kaduna Nzeogwu…thunder can break again!

Kaduna Nzeogwu…thunder can break again!

Whilst President Obama is into strategic and futuristic thinking, repositioning the US economy, the now Fundraiser-in-Chief of Nigeria is using State resources and privileges to help his native Otuoke to the utter disregard of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, putting other communities in Nigeria at a disadvantage…nepotism, favouritism and tribalism were three of the five core reasons Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu adduced in 1966 as the motive for the first military coup in Nigeria. Here’s a man without a sense of history showing complete naivety and gross lack of statesmanship and vision in governance coupled with his lack of understanding of the complexity of the Nigerian polity. The story of a misfit without a mustard seed - knowledge of his country’s Constitution, nay, a man who does not know he has been standing on a sinking sand since coming into office

The hidden costs of proxyin

The way in which companies and their users interact with the web has changed enormously in the last few years. Companies are now relying more and more on web based applications to run their businesses, such as Salesforce, Google Apps and Microsoft Office365. There has been a monumental shift towards mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) and a growing trend of people working remotely and on the move. These changes bring with them new challenges for IT administrators to maintain effective web security without compromising on productivity and flexibility.

Digital usage policies and the ‘new’ desktop

Every admin knows it - written policies aren’t worth the paper they are written on.

The PC desktop is changing, so fast that what used to confidently be called the 'desktop' is undergoing the sort of rapid evolution bound to throw up new and unfamiliar security challenges.

The Double Barrel: PhishMe trains users to avoid conversational phishing

In this article, Mr Higbee, co-founder and CTO of PhishMe, discusses a new, more sophisticated, phishing tactic where hackers are engaging in email conversations with their victims in order to make their emails seem more authentic

“It’s legit,” an APT1 hacker wrote in response to a recipient who questioned the validity of a spear phishing email sent by the now notorious Chinese hacking group. This recipient had the awareness to initially question the authenticity of the phishing email, but when APT1 responded, it added an element of trustworthiness to its communication, one that could trip up even a savvy employee.
