Another global security mess is in the making, on the heels of the publication of thousands of sensitive security documents obtained by WikiLeaks.

Samsung Electronics is launching a free mobile communications service called "ChatON."

Solid proof regarding the origins of high-profile international cyberattacks is typically elusive.

Those suspicions were again aroused recently, courtesy of government-controlled China Ce...

There was much speculation leading up to Facebook's product rollout announcement on Wednesday -- and for once, it was right on the money.

Not even 24 hours had passed following Google's sneak preview of its new social networking initiative -- Google+ -- before the grumbling began. Briefly, one of the key features of the service, which is still in field-test mode, is +Circles, which allows users to group people into different classes o...
Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt foresees more troublesome days ahead between the search engine giant and the governments of the world.

At this writing, the start of World IPv6 Day is a few short hours off, but if it's June 8, and you're reading this after having accessed it via a Google or Yahoo search, then World IPv6 day has been a success. Not that the chances are big that you'll be stymied in your attempts to navigate the Web.
At 8:56 a.m. EDT Monday morning, 19 years after its first launch on May 7, 1992, the space shuttle Endeavour left NASA's Kennedy Space Center for its 25th and final flight.

Occasionally, these devices are found by the persons being monitored. Some incidents have found their way into the court system...
LastPass is a password manager. Users rely on it to store the myriad user names and passwords they inevitably collect as they go about their business on the Web.

Researchers in Japan are working on a device that has managed to intrigue -- or at least amuse -- public relations executives, social scientists and even the patent holders of a sanitizer for computer keyboards and other peripherals: an Internet-based kissing machine. Yes. A work in progress by Kaji...
Jane Velez-Mitchell, host of her own TV show, "Issues," on HLN and author of a newly released book, Addict-Nation, An Intervention for America, well remembers the genesis of one of the topics in her book.

The FBI has requested and received a preliminary injunction from a U.S. district judge to continuing issuing "stop" commands to the zombie machines infected with the Coreflood botnet.

Facebook has introduced a number of security improvements aimed at better safeguarding users' privacy. These enhancements came a day after Sophos published an open letter asking the site to tighten up its security. By all accounts, Sophos was not impressed. Not that Facebook hastily revamped its co...
Google is rolling out access in the U.S. to a tool that has already made a mark in other parts of the world: Map Maker. As the name suggests, Map Maker allows people to create and edit Google Maps.
