A new breed of Tiki has been released a week ago and the Tiki Community urge every user to update as it solve critical security issues. LTS (Long Term Services) versions are concerned, 12.x and 15.x, as well as the under going development 16.x branch so you got no excuses. With so many improvement and a few regression and bug fixes it is in your best interest to upgrade as those version not only contain security fixes but hundreds of small improvement, enhancement and regressions fixes.
The process is pretty smooth and doesn’t require that much knowledge thanks to the Tiki Install/Update process and your data will be safer as well as your files. As usual do backup of your database and if you feel it is too complicate for you ask from the Tiki Community for help, contact me or check the Tiki consultant list to have it done.
Skype the popular text, voice and video communicator has being targeted several time on several platform since October 2016.
If you were on Windows and Android it is now several weeks you are urged to update your version of Skype. Since an old backdoor was also found (by Trustwave's SpiderLabs analysts) on Mac OSX version it seem that everyone should update skype, period.
Skype, acquired by Microsoft for $8.5 billions in 2011 was born in 2003 (only) but became rapidly a very commonly used application with 300 millions of users, around 20% of adult Internet users are Skype aficionados! With such penetration, simple breach or hack have a huge impact on the entire community. Not infected system are getting spammed and must defend themselves or be defended while all this have a cost and decrease Internet performances. The virus infection come with a slow wave propagation. While this may fool some of us (we are not affected at the same time) this give a good advantage for those who are away from the source and by the time the virus or hack affect the system that they are connected to or may received information from they should have updated or upgraded their own application.
Drupal demande à ses utilisateurs de corriger plusieurs dangereuses brèches de sécurité qui permettent aux hackers de prendre contrôle de sites via une exécution de code à distance. Ce système de gestion de contenu (Drupal) affiche quelque 15 millions de téléchargements, comparés au 140 millions revendiqués par Wordpress et au 30 millions par Joomla, est utilisé pour gérer les informations de très grosses organisations ou sociétés qui incluent 9% des 10,000 sites les plus populaires.
Si le noyau de Drupal n’est pas affecté et que cela ne concerne pas 100% des sites, cette préoccupation met de nouveau en avant les problèmes liés à l’utilisation des modules/plugins/add-ons externes proposés par une tierce partie (développeurs ou compagnies indépendantes) pour être ajouté au logiciel principal et qui peuvent causer de graves préjudices au projet lui-même, à vos utilisateurs, votre business... votre dur labeur. Il est critique, si vous utilisez Drupal que vous lisiez attentivement les conseils publiés le 13 juillet 2016 par Drupal pour vérifier si l’un des modules que vous utilisez n’est pas affecté par le problème en question.
WikiSuite (in one word) is a complete Free Open Source software and tools collection integrated into a Suite. There is no short way to say it but let's start with headers: Serve, Protect, Manage, Communicate, Share and Publish your organization's data using well-reputed software and tools assembled for that purpose. Yes it does all that and frankly, after years of trying to find one tool to fit the small/medium business common needs without investing in licences and IT team to setup, support and maintain their computerized system it looks like a seriously valid option. Most of the time, organizations or businesses have a different purpose than managing servers, databases, teams, emails, social networks and security but they need to use, share and manipulate data to achieve their everyday goals. WikiSuite is a good candidate to help you lower the resources (budget and staff) as well as security and privacy stress (you are in control) without scarifying the quality of the tools your organization is working with and yes it competes in several sectors directly with Office 365 or Google Apps for Work.
