Ransomeware Threat
Looks like corporations are not the only one who fear ransomeware. It looks like a few police stations nationwide are getting infected and because of their infrastructure setup, it can cost them greatly. Let's just say criminals can go free because the evidence that is being entered into the police database are no longer accessible. Talk about tasteless justice.

Unsecure Backup
Looks like the US Air Force fouled up recently on a backup and some how someone forgot to encrypt it and password protect it.
No one is saying how top secret these files are, but it's a simple screw up from Administrators not double checking their work. If your going to put anything online, make sure it's secure and password protected.

WannaCrypt
What is WannaCrypt and why should you care. Well let's just say it's a new attack on computers and if you haven't update your Windows computer, and antivirus lately. You should make sure everything is running smoothly.
Once a user gets hit with this nasty stuff your computer is held hostage and I just hope you have a backup or are ok on losing everything and your computer to reformat Windows. The software attack gives user's little option and headaches to online users. Be careful.

Gmail New Limits
Looks like Gmail finally increased it's email limits to 50 mb, but it will only work against other user's because the attachment size is still capped at 25mb for outlook and yahoo mail. So the chances you'll ever get that big mail is rare for now.

Best Mobile Signal
You will be shock when you here who is the best mobile carrier for wireless. Looks like a company in London does wireless research for consumers and when they compared the U.S. cell phone carriers, one carrier name that's been changing the mobile market came up ahead. Maybe it's time to switch and stay ahead of the rest.

Amazon Cloud Save
When Amazon went down it's savior was it's own cloud service. Now that's pretty impressive coming from a company that preaches down time and up time. Just shows how disaster preparedness played an import role with Amazon infrastructure. Good going Amazon.
