A security expert creates undetectable malware on Mac OS X

Macs are no longer the island of security that wanted to believe as they were. Malware exist on Mac OS X and start being more numerous. One researcher even found a "simple" way to make them undetectable. In April 2012, the Flashback botnet began to hurt the feeling of invulnerability of the Mac community, which for years had felt safe from viruses and other malware.

Sign of changing times, as related to an increase in market share to Apple’s professional cybercriminals. Cyber attacks seeking the best return on investment or, indeed, the apple computers often tend to be chosen by the target value. Since new malware for Mac OS X have succeeded without causing much damage as Flashback, but demonstrating every time the fortress "breathtaking" was no longer or had never been.

There are some days, Daniel Pistelli, a security researcher for Cerbero German company, announced that they had obtained a proof of concept with important consequences. It would be possible of creating undetectable malware on Mac OS X, as well as the system for any security solutions.

 To do this, they used one of the tools that Apple has built into Mac OS X and is used to encrypt the executable houses like Dock.app or Finder.app to protect. However, this encryption can equally well be used to "protect" the executable malware, he said in a post on his company blog. Security software is then unable to detect because it is encrypted - even if they were able to recognize before.

To provide a solution to the proof of concept that has unveiled Daniel Pistelli advanced in his post several tracks. The first implies that the virus include a decryption mechanism in order to recognize new malware. The second that these security systems try to find numerical code segments, and if they are, do not trust only executables that are signed by Apple itself. Finally, the third solution in the event of a discovery of encrypted code, antivirus allow only executable whose cryptographic signature matches a trusted key

For your easy understanding, I use Drop box, but you can use any services that appeals in the direction of you like Box, Google drive, Sky drive or Sugar.
First you have to download the Drop box app for your Android and the next step is you have to register to Drop box with your account information. After these steps if you place any file in your Drop box, it will automatically sync between your Android and Mac automatically. As on the iPhone, it is available to choose to have without human intervention it will save and sync the photos which are taken by your Android device. If you permit this option it will give an extra 500 MB storage space. This option is very useful in case if you lose your mobile.

An out of the ordinary feature is you can also choose to sync the internet, which syncs the Google search results across devices.

App crash frequently for Apple's iPhone 5s

Apps runs in the iPhone 5s are not stable? Is it due to iOS 7? Or the new 64 -bit processor or the apps itself? According to a study overthrow apps on the iPhone 5s at any rate twice as often as they do on the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5. According to U.S. reports, the study of analytics and monitoring company Crittercism found that apps crash on the new iPhone 5s twice as often as on the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5. 

In the evaluation of several hundred million apps supposedly turned out that the percentage of crashed apps in Apple's iPhone 5s of approximately 2 percent. The proportion of an app crash on iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c, however, is reported to range from around 1 percent. A possible reason for the frequent crashes, the analysts see the 64 -bit combination of iOS 7 and A7 processor in the iPhone 5s.

Apparently, some developers had tested their apps rather late in this regard and not yet optimized respectively and adjusted. Overall, Apple is in the transition to 64 -bit system, but well done, it says in Crittercism. Previously in forums and on YouTube we heard a lot already numerous case studies to complete system crashes like “Blue Screen of Death “at Apple's iPhone 5s for attention. Apparently, Apple is aware of the problem and is working on relief. Apple has now released two iOS updates for iOS 7 and the update to iOS 7.0.3 should be followed shortly with further bug fixes.

6 Great iPhone 5S/iPhone 5C Accessories

Apple's release of the iPhone 5S and 5C not only introduced two impressive new smartphones to the world, but brought a new generation of accessories along with them to protect and enhance them. With the holiday season upon us, here are six must-have iPhone 5S and 5C accessories, and a few ways on how to save money when shopping for them:

​Apple iPhone 5S Dock
The iPhone 5 introduced us all to Apple's new Lighting connector – a great advance in charging/data relaying technology, but something that rendered many people's accessories and extra cords useless. They released an official adapter that worked with most accessories last fall, but until the announcement of the iPhone 5S and 5C, users with a Lightning device were without the option of an official Apple charging dock. Now, shoppers can enjoy safely charging their iPhone 5, 5S and 5C on an official dock charger, a sleekly-designed product that locks the iPhone in a sturdy, secure position while charging. When buying one, don't forget to bring a Best Buy promo code with you!
Mophie Juice Pack Plus A
vailable in three different colors, the Morph Juice Pack Plus (compatible with both the iPhone 5, 5S and 5C) is Morph's signature external battery case. It's sleek, slim design protects phones from everyday nicks and scratches with its shockproof band - and provides a lot of extra power, thanks to a battery with 120% the capacity of the iPhone's own (at less than 100% of the retail price, when shopping with a Newegg coupon), adding another 10 hours of talk time and hundreds of standby time.

A Gloves
Touchscreen-friendly winter gloves don't have to be expensive, despite what many retailer's offerings would have one think. A Gloves are an affordable (easily found between $10-15 at most places), work with all ten fingers thanks to their patented – and most importantly, will always keep a smartphone/tablet, even in the coldest months of the year.
Apple TV
A thoroughly underrated device, Apple TV is an extremely affordable option for iPhone users looking to stream music, photos, videos, and even games from their phone screen to their TV. With access to Netflix, MLB.TV, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, and dozens of other services, it's not only a hub to access Apple content on one's HDTV (in full 1080p), but any streaming video service one could imagine. It's a great gift for any Apple-using techie in the family- and a surprisingly affordable one at under $100 - even more when using a Adorama promo code during the holiday shopping season.

Otterbox iPhone 5S/5C
Over the years, we've tested dozens of different iPhone cases for various devices: and time and time again, we come back to the Otterbox line of smartphone cases, offering extreme protection. With multiple case options all offering the same industry-leading protection, there's no wrong choice to choose from in their extensive product line, a perfect gift for the slightly-reckless teenager getting a new iPhone as a gift this winter.
ZAGG Invisible Shield
Most people buy a case for their phone – but many neglect to protect the most important part of their iPhone 5S: the beautiful Retina display. When it comes to screen protection, there's really only one option anyone needs to consider: the ZAGG Invisible Shield. Designed from technology originally developed to protector the blades on military choppers, the Invisible Shield offers maximum protection and screen visibility at an affordable price (especially when shopping with a Best Buy coupon in hand).

A bonus tip: you don't need a receipt to get a replacement Invisible Shield from the kiosk in the local mall. Just bring the phone: the screen is the only receipt one needs – and it's only $5 to replace the screen, even if the old one's been on there for years.
