Apple’s iOS 13 is running on 50 percent of all iPhones after three weeks


That’s in line with last year’s update, despite iOS 13’s many bugs
Apple’s iOS 13 update may have been riddled with bugs over the course of its first few weeks post-release, but that hasn’t had a meaningful impact on user adoption. According to the company, more than 50 percent of all iPhones were running iOS 13 just 26 days after launch. That’s slower than iOS 12, which took just 23 days to hit 50 percent, but not by much. If you count only iPhones purchased in the last four years, the figure jumps up to 55 percent.
The numbers look even better — vis a vis Android — when you take into account that most other phones are running iOS 12. Of all iPhones currently accessing the App Store, which is how Apple checks these numbers, 41 percent are using iOS 12 and just 9 percent are using an earlier mobile OS. For devices four years old and younger, 38 percent are running iOS 12 and just 7 percent are running an older OS. For iPadOS, the numbers are slightly lower, with 33 percent of all iPads running the new OS and 41 percent of newer iPads running it.

Bogus Android Clubhouse App Drops Credential-Swiping Malware

The malicious app spreads the BlackRock malware, which steals credentials from 458 services — including Twitter, WhatsApp, Facebook and Amazon. Researchers are warning of a fake version of the popular audio chat app Clubhouse, which delivers malware that steals login credentials for more than 450 apps. Clubhouse has burst on the social media scene over the past few months, gaining hype through its audio-chat rooms where participants can discuss anything from politics to relationships. Despite being invite-only, and only being around for a year, the app is closing in on 13 million downloads . However, as of now the app is only available on Apple’s App Store mobile application marketplace — there’s no Android version yet (though plans are in the works to develop one). Cybercriminals are swooping in on Android users looking to download Clubhouse by creating their own fake Android version of the app. To add a legitimacy to the scam, the fake app is delivered from a website purporting to b...

Razer has created a concept N95 mask with RGB and voice projection

  Razer claims to have made the world’s smartest mask: its new reusable N95 respirator called Project Hazel. It’s a concept design with a glossy outside shell made of waterproof and scratch-resistant recycled plastic, which is transparent to allow for lip-reading and seeing facial cues when you chat with people. Currently, there isn’t a price or release date attached. Razer refers to Project Hazel as a surgical N95, but it hasn’t yet earned any of the necessary approvals and certifications from the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or Occupational Safety and Health Administration. In a statement to The Verge , Razer said it is working with a team of medical experts and scientists who are helping to develop the mask. The main features of this mask lie within its two circular zones that flank your mouth. They’re used for ventilation, giving the device an almost futuristic gas mask look. Razer claims Project Hazel will use active disc-type v...

Hackers Compromise Mimecast Certificate For Microsoft Authentication

A sophisticated threat actor compromised a Mimecast certificate used to authenticate several of the company’s products to Microsoft 365 Exchange Web Services, Mimecast disclosed Tuesday. The Lexington, Mass.-based email security vendor said the certificate used to authenticate its Sync and Recover, Continuity Monitor and Internal Email Protect (IEP) products to Microsoft 365 has been compromised. Mimecast said it was recently informed of the compromise by Microsoft. Mimecast’s stock is down $2.40 per share (4.67 percent) to $49 per share in pre-market trading Tuesday, which is the lowest the company’s stock has traded since Dec. 15. Mimecast declined to answer questions about whether the compromise of its certificate was carried out by the same threat actor who for months injected malicious code into the SolarWinds Orion network monitoring tool. Approximately 10 percent of Mimecast’s customers use the compromised connection, according to the company. Of those that do, Mimecast said cu...
