Podcast
Transforming an Enterprise From Sluggish to Sleek (33:33)
"You end up spending less money, because you're a more efficient
organization, and you end up delivering better value to customers,
because you're a more effective organization," said Huge Evans, CEO of
Enterprise Architects. "This efficiency and effectiveness need within
organizations is worth the price of investment in this area. The actual
tangible benefits that we're seeing across our customers includes
reduced cost of their IT estate. "

Today's Story Highlights

Report: Criminals Put a Bull's-eye on Web Infrastructure
Cybercriminals have begun focusing their malicious endeavors on the
sinew of the Internet to reap greater rewards. For months now, Net
bandits have targeted key infrastructure elements -- from the domain-
naming service to certificate-issuing authorities to hosting services --
in order to spread cash-producing malware. "They're going after the
infrastructure of the Internet," said Dave Jevans of Marble Security.

What Happens When Android Fails?
I've just finished doing yet another news program on the increasing
risks of using an Android phone, and the discussions have started to
drift to the potential for class-action lawsuits, commercial plane
crashes, and cyberdisasters that would make 9/11 seem trivial -- all
connected to this platform.

FOSS Fact or Fiction? A Tale of Two Surveys
It's a well-known fact that statistics can be manipulated to suit
virtually every occasion and purpose, but every once in a while an
example comes along that illustrates that rule with breathtaking
clarity. Case in point? Two recent surveys on the topic of FOSS that
came out in the very same week.

Status Board Gives You a Stylish Dashboard for Your Life
Business environments now feature executive dashboards -- graphical
interfaces that show managers key metrics about their enterprises like
sales activity, inventory or financials. They tick and update in real
time, and they require hooks into business data to work. Panic has
created a simple dashboard for real people.

Report: Galaxy S4 Matches iPhone5 in Display Dazzle
The Samsung Galaxy S4, scheduled to launch worldwide Saturday, has a
display that's on par with the trendsetting Retina Display of Apple's
iPhone 5, according to DisplayMate Technologies. The company conducted
tests on screen reflections, brightness and contrast, colors and
intensities, viewing angles, display power consumption and battery time.
