The world of technology has only recently begun to design services for farmers. But the numbers show that this line of business is already growing rapidly. Investment records are broken every year. Underlying this development is the boon of the huge amount of data that a farm now generates. Like every other human being, farmers do book keeping, are active online, and use smartphones. They use such tools to solve problems on the farm, and by doing so, they’re generating data. There is also farm machinery, loaded with sensors generating lots of data. By combining such farm operations data with other data repositories, like open satellite data on water tables, precipitation, and nutrition data from the feed manufacturer, etc, data can be combined into useful applications that can help with farm management. Despite the opportunity for the developer to build valuable solutions, there are also barriers that significantly obstruct adoption of digital solutions for farm manag...

Have your friends recently texted you about spam originating from your Yahoo Mail account? If so, that may be because you (and many of your friends) were hacked. Yahoo acknowledged Thursday that attackers now own an undisclosed number of usernames and passwords to Yahoo Mail accounts. In a blog post, Jay Rossiter, the senior vice president in charge of Yahoo’s platforms and personalization products, wrote that the attackers had most likely hacked an external, third-party database and obtained the information there. “We regret this has happened and want to assure our users that we take the security of their data very seriously,” Rossiter wrote. Yahoo did not say how many accounts had been compromised, nor when the attacks had taken place. However, the company says it began notifying users that the attacks had taken place, and had begun using second sign-in verification to allow users to re-secure their accounts. Users who have been affected, unsurprisin...

I'm increasingly being asked by folks on Facebook if it's possible to tell who has been viewing their Facebook profile. A number have been attracted to webpages and Facebook applications that claim to be able to give you a secret insight into who is spying on your profile. Well, if you're one of those people who are curious about who might be watching you online, take care. Right now we're seeing a significant number of Facebook users posting messages such as: OMG OMG OMG... I can't believe this actually works! Now you really can see who views your profile!!! WOAH and See who views your Facebook profile in real-time!!! However, like the "Justin Bieber cell phone number" scam and the "This mother went to jail for taking this pic of her son!" scam, the links pointed to in your friends' status updates are not to be trusted. If you make the mistake of clicking on the link to one of these pages offering...

Facebook may have refused to pay researcher Khalil Shreateh a bug bounty after he posted a message on Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook page , but that doesn’t mean he’s going to go away empty-handed. Shreateh posted the message on Zuckerberg’s Facebook page, exploiting the vulnerability he had discovered, after he become frustrated by the poor response from the social network’s security team. Irritated by their claim that he wasn’t reporting a bug, he effectively “went to the top” in order to get their undivided attention. Shreateh lost the chance of receiving $500 or more from Facebook by breaking their guidelines for responsible investigation and disclosure of flaws on the site, much to the annoyance of many fellow security researchers and hackers online. Well, if you were one of them, don’t despair. A fundraising campaign started by researcher Marc Maiffret has already raised over $12,000 for Shreateh. Shreateh may have been unwise to have posted messages onto the Facebo...
