At The Linux Foundation's Open Source Summit North America, Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, discussed various topics related to Linux development and the challenges the open-source community faces. Torvalds addressed hardware errors, malic...
The open source community is a huge collection of often inter-related projects and initiatives, so how can telcos and their vendor partners best engage and benefit? In addition to his Ericsson role, Chris Price is also a Board Member of both the Linux Foundation and the OpenStack Foundation, so is ideally placed to offer advice.
The Linux Foundation has launched the LF Deep Learning Foundation, an umbrella organisation which will support and sustain open source innovation in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning. The organisation will strive to make these critical new technologies available to developers and data scientists everywhere, said a statement published by LF.
The Red Hat Linux distribution is turning 25 years old this week. What started as one of the earliest Linux distributions is now the most successful open-source company, and its success was a catalyst for others to follow its model.
Despite its name, the Linux Foundation has long been about more than just Linux. These days, it’s a foundation that provides support to other open source foundations and projects like Cloud Foundry, the Automotive Grade Linux initiative and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. Today, the Linux Foundation is adding yet another foundation to its stable: the LF Deep Learning Foundation.
Engineering Group, the global IT player and Italian leader in digital transformation, announced their continued sponsorship of the Open Source Initiative (OSI). The OSI is internationally recognized as the stewards of open source software, working to promote and protect open source projects, development and communities.
For 20 years the organization has served as the reference point for individuals, non-profit organizations, international enterprises, and governments that recognize the critical role of open source in enabling flexibility, transparency, innovation, and added-value in technology-based products and services.
Salted Hash is in Louisville, Kentucky for DerbyCon 5.0. All weekend long, in-between talks and training, this blog will be updated with various items of note from the show or thoughts form those attending. Today's starter topic is insider threats.
Software engineers can share, shape and work jointly on code through Github. It is also a nice way to teach people to do the same thing. John Britton is Github
Weren't in Vegas? Here's what you need to know
Hacks, exploits, vulnerabilities -- it's time to showcase them all. In a ten-day security extravaganza in Las Vegas, NV, the world's best security experts, hackers, and researchers come together to show the world how utterly unsafe it is.
At the annual LinuxCon event here, Linux creator Linus Torvalds revealed how he thinks about security. Torvalds was onstage with Linux Foundation Executive Director Jim Zemlin, who asked the Linux founder how he feels about being the boss of Linux.
DEFCON is one of the largest hacker conferences in the world. Held for four days every August in Last Vegas, DEFCON is now in it's 23rd year and is bigger (and scarier) than ever.
Def Con is underway, and WIRED has been busy breaking news from some of the biggest stories from the conference, such as: hacking a Wi-Fi connected rifle. Hacking and fixing a Tesla. Hacking into a Brinks safe. Hacking into an electric skateboard. Oh, and let
This year marked the 23rd DefCon, the hacker conference that began as an informal gathering for hackers to meet in person and party in the desert. Since its beginning, it has grown from fewer than 100 attendees to reportedly more than 20,000 all of them jammed into two hotels this year
The Internet is barreling down the same road of regulation and not-so-subtle censorship that has turned every other means of mass communication into a centralized and vanilla fountain of useless information. Kinda like television.
Security researchers need to fight for the rights to study, modify and reverse engineer Internet hardware and software or the general population risks losing Internet freedom, the Black Hat 2015 conference was told.
There's been plenty of debate over why there are so few women in information security, a field where there's a gaping talent gap and plenty of unfilled jobs. Women continue to make up only about 10% of the industry: and even more disconcerting, some data indicates a trend in women leaving the industry.
Black Hat 2015 is underway, and the corporate side of hacking has taken center stage. There are plenty of hot topics this year, but the mess at the OPM is something that is still generating buzz months after the fact.
Vulnerabilities found in CompuSafe Galileo safes, smart safes made by the ever-reliable Brinks company that are used by retailers, restaurants, and convenience stores, would allow a rogue employee or anyone else with physical access to them to command their doors to open and relinquish their cash, according to Daniel Petro and Oscar Salazar, researchers with the security firm Bishop Fox, who plan to demonstrate their findings next week at the Def Con hacker conference in Las Vegas.
