Oracle’s Point-of-service Division MICROS Suffers Massive Data Breach

This year is by all accounts the year of information ruptures in light of the fact that the pattern of hacking undeniable databases of even the most secure organizations is ascending at a consistent pace. There is no such industry left that hasn't been influenced by this late surge in information ruptures. We have seen more than a billion client IDs being released online and this news is about another surely understood firm being focused by these danger experts, Oracle. 

Yes, this is in fact genuine! Oracle's MICROS division has been hit by assailants. It must be noticed that MICROS is the world's third most mainstream point-of-sale service, which was gained by Oracle in 2014. In this way, reports propose that the POS division of Oracle has endured a gigantic information rupture subsequent to innumerable PCs of the organization were hacked. The programmers used the clients' bolster entrances to infiltrate the frameworks and accessed the organization's business registers over the globe.
A worker at Oracle distinguished the rupture in the wake of watching vindictive code on the bolster entry of MICROS. It was later discovered that malware was introduced on the investigating gateway. This deed permitted programmers to access clients' accreditations when they signed in and afterward they utilized the data to get to the client records and control the POS terminals of MICROS remotely. 
Oracle immediately informed its clients and organizations to change their login credentials on MICROS online bolster entries. The organization's authentic articulation read: 
"Oracle Security has distinguished and tended to malignant code in certain legacy MICROS frameworks. Oracle's Corporate system and other cloud and administration offerings were not affected by this code. Installment card information is encoded both very still and in travel in the MICROS facilitated environment… Consistent with standard security remediation conventions, Oracle [requires] MICROS clients to change the passwords for all MICROS accounts." 
In spite of the fact that the whereabouts of malignant on-screen characters who arranged the assault haven't been affirmed by Oracle yet hypotheses from Krebs on security are that a Russia-based group Car bank Gang is in charge of this security break. Before, the same posse has been blamed for taking an incredible measure of $1 billion from different retail outlets and banks through comparative hack assaults.

South Africa is participating in largest and most advanced HIV vaccine trial program; makes its own history

image credit A big step for mankind -  South Africa is participating in  HIV  (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) vaccine program. This vaccine could prevent HIV infection. The drug trial began last month. This program is called  HVTN 702 . About 5400 adults are participating in this  HIV  vaccine trial. Scientists say that this  HIV  vaccine program is the largest and most advanced trial program in South Africa.   “If deployed alongside our current armoury of proven HIV prevention tools, a safe and effective vaccine could be the final nail in the coffin for HIV,” said Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which falls under the American National Institutes of Health (NIH), a co-funder of the trial.   “Even a moderately effective vaccine would significantly decrease the burden of HIV disease over time in countries and populations with high rates of HIV infection, such as South Africa.”  image credit Dr Glenda Gray  is

One day at the Zoo -Episode #20

Two weeks ago I visited "Alipore Zoological Gardens" in Kolkata which is mostly known as "Alipore Zoo". It was founded in the year of 1875 in British India. And it was established by Edward VII, and then The prince of wales. This zoo is the biggest attraction of the tourists in the "City of Joy". However, the Alipore Zoo has some notable historical value as it's the most old zoological garden in India. The zoo was also famous for the home of "Aldabra giant tortoise". But, in 2006 the tortoise died at the age of almost 250. There are now over 1266 animals of 108 species are living in the Alipore Zoo. And annual visitors of the zoo is about 3 millions. **I captured some photos, but, due to the obstacle of the fence I couldn't take them very clearly. * Saltwater Crocodile To be continued ...
