Feed: Planet big data. Author: Josh Zelonis. Motherboard and Kaspersky unveiled that hackers compromised a server of computer manufacturer ASUS’s live software update tool to install a malicious backdoor on thousands of computers. The malicious file was able to masquerade as an authentic software update as it was signed with legitimate ASUS digital certificates. The manufacturer unwittingly pushed out the backdoor to customers for at least five months before its discovery last year. At Forrester, we have been tracking this dangerous trend in which cybercriminals use compromised update servers to distribute malware, a trend that has already affected Arch Linux, ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Bob Muenchen. In my previous post, I discussed Gartner’s reviews of data science software companies. In this post, I show Forrester’s coverage and discuss how radically different it is. As usual, this post is already integrated into my regularly-updated article, The Popularity of Data Science Software. Forrester Research, Inc. is another company that reviews data science software vendors. Studying their reports and comparing them to Gartner’s can provide a deeper understanding of the software these vendors provide. Historically, Forrester has conducted their analyses similarly to Gartner’s. That approach compares software that uses point-and-click style software like KNIME, to ... Read More

Feed: Feed | Tractica. Author: . Over the past several years, the benchmark for determining whether quantum computing is a viable commercial technology has been quantum supremacy. This term was coined by Caltech professor and quantum computing guru John Preskill to describe the demonstration of a quantum computer that can carry out tasks not possible or practical with a traditional computer. More recently, the term quantum advantage has been applied to this concept of reaching a point at which quantum computers surpass classical computers in their ability to perform artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. To achieve that level of performance, significant ... Read More
