cDc launches Veilid, a free and secure app framework

/in


A group of hackers who call themselves Cult of the Dead Cow (cDc) has developed an open-source tool for developers to create apps that respect user privacy and security. The tool, named Veilid, was unveiled at DEF CON, a hacker convention held in Las Vegas, on Friday.

The group has created a coding framework that can be used by app developers who want to use strong encryption and avoid revenue from ads that are based on users’ profiles derived from the data that most apps collect.

As Engadget reports, cDc leader, Katelyn “medus4” Bowden, said that the group’s vision for the internet was different from the current reality. “We feel that at some point, the internet became less of a landscape of knowledge and idea sharing and more of a monetized corporate machine,” she said. “Our idea of what the internet should be looks more like the open landscape it once was before our data became a commodity.”

moomoo employs secure, highly-available IT architecture to enable 24/5 trading of selected US stocks and ETFs – Partner Content

/in


Trading in United States equity markets enables Australian investors to diversify their portfolios with investments in some of the world’s largest and most-recognised businesses. To deliver 24-hour trading of selected U.S. stocks and exchange traded funds (ETFs), moomoo has connected its share trading platform to a registered broker-dealer with an alternative trading platform that operates outside regular U.S. trading hours.

The new offering means investors using moomoo can trade a list of 165 US stocks and ETFs during Australian daytime hours, as well as at night. 

“We selected the most-traded stocks and ETFs to ensure sufficient liquidity to enable smooth and efficient trades, especially during off-hours when trading volumes are generally lower,” said moomoo Australia chief market strategist Matt Wilson.

“Australia makes up less than 2% of global equities, so if you don’t invest in other markets, you are missing out on a lot of opportunities,” he added.

moomoo uses its own technology to connect via registered broker-dealer and alternative trading system (ATS) operator Blueocean. ATS is an electronic system for crossing orders in stocks governed by the National Market System, the United States’ securities trading regulation mechanism, and is available to registered broker-dealer subscribers only.  

 With the introduction of 24/5 US trading, moomoo users now have access to trading hours that cover the entire day, from 11am Monday to 11am Saturday (AEST).

Backing new feature with institutional tracking, ratings update and industrial chain tools

By using moomoo to invest in the U.S. market, Australians can access features such as an institutional tracking tool that tracks the quarterly holdings of more than 20,000 institutions. 

“This enables investors to ‘follow the big money’ and get an inside look into the strategies of the world’s top asset management firms,” explained Wilson.  

The moomoo application also includes real-time company ratings updates from 4,000 Wall Street analysts, while an ‘industrial chain’ tool also maps out divisions of labour and value chains in 17 industries so investors can identify key players and…

TXOne Networks introduces Stellar to secure OT/ICS devices from malware and abuse threats

/in


TXOne Networks announced its Stellar solution for defending operational stability. Employing TXOne Networks’ approach to security, Cyber-Physical System Detection and Response (CPSDR), Stellar supports the priorities of security and operations without either team having to sacrifice capability or performance.

Already protecting customers in semiconductors, manufacturing, oil and gas, automotive, pharmaceuticals and many other industries, Stellar offers seamless detection and prevention capabilities with complete oversight for legacy and new OT devices.

With intuitive management and informed automation, implementation is quick and simple while remaining non-impacting to resource-restricted devices.

The behavioral patterns of the OT devices and cyber-physical systems on plant floors are automatically established and continuously monitored. Even a single abnormal interaction demands scrutiny that common cybersecurity approaches borrowed from information technology (IT) are often not designed to recognize or address.

Stellar, however, analyses the baseline “fingerprints” of each individual device to reveal any unexpected behavior that threaten reliable and stable operations. The TXOne Networks solution then prevents the unexpected change and generates alerts to complete wider analysis. In this way, Stellar is not limited to combatting known threats; rather, by leveraging TXOne Networks’ OT-native CPSDR capabilities, Stellar’s stability-driven approach addresses unexpected system changes before operations can be impacted.

Stellar consists of an agent that works with an organization’s OT devices and a centralized management console that streamlines management and policy control.

A comprehensive OT-context-focused database, which TXOne Networks maintains in partnership with leading device original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), informs the accurate identification and preservation of more than 8,000 OT/industrial control system (ICS) applications, certificates and devices.

To balance the priorities of security and operations teams, Stellar delivers complete protection of operational environments and the OT devices that they comprise of, including:
