Authentication using various methods of audio modulation and demodulation has been around for more than 10 years. My company alongside 2 others were the leaders in developing and patenting this tech. While I haven't looked extensively at how they are doing it, his video does mention something about using ultrasonic frequencies which our patents don't cover but BeepCard's (another Israeli start-up) patents very much do so. I'm sure they'll be looking into this pretty soon.

When Tesla offers to pay the owner of the car for the damages to his home, the guy declines. Now, call me stupid, but that's a little weird no?
Reading from the article:
Visiting a pornographic website (40%)
Clicking on a malicious link in a phishing email (56%)
Allowing a family member to use a company-owned device (45%)
Installing a malicious mobile app (33%)
Are these numbers cited from each individual that was polled or from the entire group of 200 people? Furthermore, they don't seem to add up. Finally, I remember when some 20 years ago when I installed my first proxy cache with site blocking capabilities and it blocked almost all porn sites. Are you telling me that major corporations with over 500 people or for that matter even 50, don't have a site blocking package installed today?
I call shite on a report paid for by a malware company whose primary goal is to sell the same crap that apparently doesn't work today.
Always love to hear someone's opinion. Having grown up in a family where riding a motorcycle was commonplace, I can say that while I don't agree with people having straight pipes on their bikes I do understand why (other than the kids riding for noise). Today other people on the road, namely people in cars and those who have never ridden a bike could give a flying fuck about the other vehicles on the road that are on 2 wheels.
I like cars because I was brought up in a family that raced cars and bikes. You likely were brought up in a family that rode camels but I'm not arguing your point, just agreeing we have differences of opinion:)
I saw the Model S in the new wing of the Yorkdale shopping center in Toronto. Nice setup and even nicer women selling you the car. That being said, while I can afford the Model S, I won't be buying it. Its a really nice empty shell with a big screen and all but for that money I'd buy an Audi priced the same before a Tesla. Call me old school but I still need to hear the car go vroom.
"Emails cannot replace the spoken word.'"
Sure nice comment for the CEO to make when he has people doing his actual emails/letters for him. However, in a real company, where real accountability with projects, employees and customers is required, the spoken word is nothing but that, spoken. When I ask a project manager why a customer compained about something not being done, and he clearly demonstrates it to me in an email, then I won't have to "take the spoken word" for it will I?
The issue is not whether you need to learn Chinese or not. It's about whether you really need to go to China anymore at all. I've been in the electronics industry for 21 years. Slowly everything is moving out of Asia. First everyone was in Taiwan, now they outsource to China, now they have begun outsourcing to Thailand and Singapore. With the many advances in automation, both from a flex manufacturing perspective and final product packaging, there really is no need to go there anymore with the proper upfront capital investment back in Canada or the US. I figure in about 10 years, the only reason you'll need either Japan or Singapore is for high-value production materials that the Japanese have invested heavily into already from an automation perspective and that downward pressure and competition will make it worthwhile to still produce there.
Again this depends on what you make but for the most part if you invest properly in your own equipment you can do it yourself here back home and employ operators locally to boost your own economy.
1mm? The simcard is based on a standard ISO 7816 card format which is.79mm in thickness. Our company can make sim cards that are.3mm in thickness. That's not the issue. Its the volume requirements to tool enough equipment if all the carriers suddenly did want them that thin. Whose going to make them all?
In a country which is trillions of dollars in debt, which apparently cannot afford to offer national healthcare like others do in the UK and Canada but CAN afford to bail out the heads of banks who've screwed the US population out of their children's future can somehow come up with the rationale to send people to the moon because?
Common sense is clearly gone today. I don't know what the hell anyone in government thinks anymore
Anyone who really does their research will understand that nuclear energy is by far the cleanest and safest.Apparent "clean" energy pundits are constantly on CNN or some news puff show saying "This is why we need to go solar or wind powered, its proven technology"
Yes proven. But take for instance, The Roscoe Wind Farm (the newest and largest) which generates about 780MW of power. Compare that to the oldest nuclear reactors in Ontario (Candu series) that generates 3100MW (6 of them at full power before they began to get decommissioned) and you simply have nothing able to provide the power demands that today's society requires. The wind farm cost 1 billion, spans 100,000 acres and produces less than a third of power that 25 year old reactors are producing here in Ontario. Take the newer Bruce Power Plant which generates over 7200MW with 8 Candus online and there really isn't any competition considering that entire installation spans about 2500 acres.
Yes accidents happen and nuclear is dangerous but I don't see ANY of the same criticism towards OIL after BP and their US cronies POLLUTED the entire US south-eastern coastline for the next 100 years.
Why doesn't anyone scream about that? Why? Because it would require that fat-ass clean air economist to drive her bike to work the whole three miles from her cozy Manhattan flat instead of taking her gas guzzling car. Nothing in life is perfect but if you take the number of nuclear incidents and compare them to oil disasters it pales in comparison.
Why did Globalive have to go half way around the world to get money in the first place?
Because this country and its investment banking and VC community are a joke and nothing more than ex-bankers playing with a handful of land developer's money.
The truth is that any decent company from any field (tech/biotech or other) will abandan/sell-out Canada eventually because our own country lacks the fundamental principles of investing in itself.
While somewhat offtopic perhaps you can explain why RSA SecureID tokens are cream of the crop vs Vasco tokens? They do the exact same thing. The only difference is that RSA has made a buinsess of charging exhorbitant amounts of money for a token they get made in China for 1USD.
"We have placed Galaxy 15 in safe mode, and at this time, we are pleased to report it no longer poses any threat of satellite interference to either neighboring satellites or customer services," Intelsat officials announced."
Unknown to anyone, the last shuttle launch had a secret space walk in order to hit CTRL-ALT-DEL on the sat's terminal.
OTP can work effectively and does thwart MITM attacks if implemented properly. Using counter-based algorithms obviously is useless in my opinion but products based on time-based algorithms with effective end user policies are more than effective in doing the job. I'd like to see one person show me an attack public or otherwise that is able to counter an OTP that has a lifespan of 20 seconds and is implemented properly with account lockout policies. Add to that end-user certificates and you have extremely effective security. While there are several vendors with time-based OTP like RSA, Vasco, Identita, the OATH consortium is an open source vendor sposored forum that also has code for producing time-based OTP.

I drive a Range Rover Sport Supercharged
1. Doesn't get great mileage
2. Costs a pretty penny to own and operate
3. I bought it because I can afford it
Regardless of everyone's comments, if everyone could own and operate an SUV they WOULD.
And please STOP CRYING ABOUT THE COST OF GAS!!
Canadians have paid more than American for gas forever http://climate.uvic.ca/people/ewiebe/car/fuel_price.html and remeber there are 3.79 liters in a gallon before you start calculating.
Gas in Europe has been at 12 bucks a gallon for who knows how long. Try driving in Switzerland.
The best part of this? That your American oil and gas companies have been buying oil from Kuwait and Saudi for 27-35 bucks a barrel ever since the first Gulf War. Why does gas cost so much? Because its a speculative market and has no bearing on the actual contracts that people in the various countires buy gas from our Saudi brothers. Why do you think the Saudis say there is no reason for the increase if there is enough oil to go around? After all, its not Hurricane Katrina season is it? The oil and refining stations haven't been knocked out in the gulf by aother storm recently have they?
Stop whining and listen up! Its your governments charging you high gas prices! Not some Arab country! Those poor bastards have been locked into low prices for years by the might of the American military machine.
Your governments need to pay for blunders like the Iraq war, and the mortgage crisis.
So while most Americans can't read properly, have the worst school system in the world, your government raises gas to pay for a $10B a month war and because they HAD to lend Merrill Lynch $50B to buy Bear Stearns when they only spent 100M buying that bank? What a joke.
So yes I'll keep driving my SUV as long as I can afford it. When I can't. I won't.
Until then look at the real facts.
You mean being human? Don't blame the legislators completely. Remember its really the corporations and their successfully run lobby groups that take the cake in world politics. Have you ever seen the DOJ go after Microsoft again? Successful lobbying in American politics is the cornerstone of bullshit in that country and others. Its the reason people believe that 100 years of industrial evolution on this planet can corrupt over 4.5 billion years of naturally occuring weather cycles.
