#Quick scanner pro

[peony-always]

For the main man's birthday, (and after reading so many great stories from others celebrating him!!), I thought I would give it a little go in honor of my husband

a snippet in which Bkg is working on his birthday :P (1.4k)

25. Twenty-five years of life, twenty-five Happy Birthday bro!!!! texts from Eiji since 6 a.m., and about 25 seconds left until Bakugou lost his composure and damaged something that would be a pain in the ass to apologize for and replace.

It wasn't that he minded working on his birthday, he really didn't. He had worked on his birthday for the last three years, so it wasn't that.

It wasn't that he minded all of Eiji's obnoxious texts, forcing him to acknowledge the day his hag mother had brought him into the world.

It wasn't even that his dumbass friends had suckered him into going out for dinner and drinks after his shift, because, even after all his blustering about, deep down he was pleased that he still had friends who would do things for him, go out of their way.

No, it was none of those things that had the 2nd Street flower shop in danger of having its windows blasted out and flowers burnt to a crisp.

It was you.

For the past few months, you had been terrorizing the Musutafu police force and Pro Heroes alike. A vigilante quirk user who was somehow getting to crime scenes before the police or heroes were even notified of them, leaving criminals tied up and subdued before fleeing the scene.

You were quick, none of the heroes dispatched could catch you. Bakugou had tried multiple times, and each time made him more eager to fight you again than the last. Since he had encountered you the most, he had been the one tasked with providing your description to the other heroes and police who patrolled downtown Musutafu.

He had described your white and gold hooded catsuit, utility boots, smug smile, and gold mask as you glanced back to taunt him, only

He wanted desperately to be the one to unmask you, to beat you at your little game of trying to one-up his colleagues. So, he had been keeping track of sightings of you, playing cat-and-mouse, you tempting him to come out and play just as well as you eluded him.

He had felt his lip curl up into a feral grin half an hour earlier when he had hear that you had been sighted over the police scanner in his office. Someone had seen you on 4th Street, and as soon as he heard that, Katsuki was off. 4th Street was minutes from his agency, and he cut the time in half by propelling himself through the sky, keen eyes watching for any sign of the suit he had committed to memory.

Then, he spotted you. Running down 2nd Street, keeping close to the alleyways and storefronts.

He sent himself downward in a flash, landing a couple feet behind you, the impact from his landing causing you to stumble and look back.

It was then that he caught a glimpse of your eyes, wide and sparkling in the afternoon light. They reminded him of a bunny. You looked a little afraid, and he felt his snarl grow into a grin, chasing after you. He had always taken pleasure in being a predator, hunting down his prey with ease.

The set of your shoulders changes as you regain your composure, calling over your shoulder to him," Working on your birthday, Dynamite? I'm flattered that I'm that important to you."

Bakugou nearly rolls his eyes at your taunting,"A big bad hero comes chasin' after ya and ya get scared, ya start runnin'? What happened to all that bravado you had for the police, ha?"

You said nothing, spinning on your heel to face him, nearly causing him to careen into you.

You lithely dodge out of his way, your knees bent, poised to run again as you speak, "I'm not afraid of you or any other pros. All you've done so far is let me down with your pathetic attempts to find me and have me brought in for doing a better job at protecting people than you."

Bakugou snarls at your words, lunging at you with his hand poised to strike, "You don't get to say shit about pros, we ain't the ones hidin' and creepin' around."

You laugh, dodging him again. You can tell he's starting to get frustrated that you're so hard to nab.

He's still enjoying himself though, examining your body as he sizes you up again, squaring off to face you once more. You're built very pretty. You look both strong and delicate, soft and hard. He can't help but let his gaze linger on your lips as his eyes make their way to your face. He notices that they look plush and supple as you speak again, "Why won't you people just leave me alone? I'm not doing anything wrong aside from not adhering to the policies of your Hero Commission. I don't hurt anyone, I capture villains, I cause thousands less than you do in property damage..."

The Bakugou remembers why he's there, to capture you and put an end to your vigilanteism. Feining anger beyond what he really feels, he goes for an obvious lunge before switching up at the last moment to sweep your legs.

It catches you off-guard, sending you onto your back on the cool concrete of the sidewalk. You quickly grab his ankle, pulling him down so he can't pin you, but he lands on top of you anyway.

You freeze, his face inches from yours, his breath warm on your cheek. His body is pressed right to yours and you can feel every hard plane of him. Your eyes lock for a moment, and in another life you think you could reach out and stroke his cheek, thread your hand through his hair, get lost in his garnet eyes.

Your breath hitches as you remember that you aren't in another life, you're in real life. You hitch your leg around his, flipping him onto his back. He still looks a bit dazed by your proximity, and you take your chance, hopping up as he moves to grab you again, but you're already out of his reach, turning away to take off, but not before you grin, saluting him and letting out a quick, "Happy birthday, Dynadick." and tossing down a smoke bomb, disappearing into the black cloud that emits from it.

He growls, moving in your direction, but he can't find you in the smoke, and once it clears, you're nowhere to be seen.

Frustrated and a little confused, he walks back to his agency, opting to take the extra few minutes to go over the fight in his head, trying to figure out what it was about you that had bewitched him so thoroughly when you took him down. Was it your quirk, unknown to the Hero Commission other than that you had one? Or was it your eyes, the life-filled sparkle of them as they searched his own?

It didn't matter, in the end. All that mattered was that he caught you, and brought you to justice soon.

He spends the rest of the day at the agency, turning off his police scanner and busying himself with paperwork until he gets the inevitable text from Eiji asking him to head over to the restaurant they were having dinner at.

He sighs, running a hand through his hair as he heads to the underground parking deck. He moves to open his car door, pausing and immediately going on alert when he sees the bright orange sticky note stuck to the handle of the driver's side door.

He pulls it off, spinning around to check the parking garage. When he sees no one, he turns back around and glances down at the note, which reads, 'Happy Birthday, Dynadick.'

He yanks open the door, expecting something dangerous to come flying out at him, but nothing does. Instead, as he peers into the car, he notices a smell that wouldn't emanate from his car normally, and as he glances down, he sees the source.

A single orange cupcake, complete with the stupid cartoonish cupcake toppers his publicist had bullied him into licensing to local bakeries.

You had even had the foresight to wrap it into a napkin, somehow knowing what a neat freak he was.

He gingerly set the cupcake into one of his cupholders and got in, a little more eager to encounter you again.

ahhhh I had no idea how to end this but I hope it was okay!!

The CV Guide for Girlies

Disclaimer: Most of the advice does not apply for ATS scanners. Still don't know how those work.

Let's say you've just been laid off unexpectedly, or you finally decided to put an end to your comfy NEET days, and you need a piece of digital paper to show someone because you wish to get paid. It's so overwhelming, where do you even begin? Well, you're in the right place, because this article right here is all you need to make a CV and actually land a job.

Before we start, there is a difference between a CV and a résumé. Curriculum Vitae (CV) is basically a your entire life, all your achievements, certificates, degrees, experience, all of it compiled together, while a résumé is a quick rundown of relevant information for the job you want. This is all completely irrelevant, because no one says résumé anymore, and no one except academia will expect your entire life course so far, but for the sake of brevity, the term CV will be used from now on.

Describe yourself in a thousand words

Firstly, sit down and write your academic achievements and all the work experience you have, in a single document. Try to be as detailed as possible. Mention everything, from fetching coffee for your slightly misogynistic boss to taking photos of university events. Anything that comes to your mind, just jot it down. Much like a lot of aspects of a job, it's easier to remove unnecessary fluff than to add it on the spot.

Next step is to translate your plebeian plainspeak to corporatese. You didn't stand in queue for 20 mins because your boss forgot his morning cuppa, you procured vital resources to ensure the team's success. You didn't just post some selfies from that boring conference, you created content to help boost the popularity of X university. It's mindboggling why humans have to communicate to each other in this way, but we live in a society.

Put aside that document for now, and browse jobs that are sort of within your expertise. As an example, we will be pretend that your desired position is that of Administrative Assistant, because it's a broad term that means literally anything and your dear author is not nearly as creative as HR. Administrative jobs can include the very general Assistant, Receptionist, AccountantLite, you name it. Then it branches off to specific establishments, like offices, hotels, spas, etc. It is all similar, but not quite the same, like how synonyms work in the English language.

Now we go back to your original document. Separate the experience you have based on the jobs you've scoured. There are customer-facing jobs, like a Hotel Receptionist, that also force you to deal with money and guest reservations, which is quite different than having to deal with social shenanigans in an office environment. Keep the original document intact, and create new documents for this step.

Designing yourself in a one-page document

Alright, the most daunting part is done. Good job! Pat yourself on the back, and follow this link to Canva, type "CV" into the search bar, and window shop for the one you like the most. Highly recommend these new sleek and modern ones, they are comfortable to look at for more than two seconds and people in HR won't discard them immediately. Choose a template or make your own from scratch, but keep in mind that people actually still use printers and will print out your application, so the contrast between the background color and the font color has to be high enough. Can't fail with a black-on-white approach, though a slightly darker white (#F4F4F4) and a slightly lighter black (#212121) work great and don't strain our eyes as much as the tried-and-true does.

Eye strain happens because of how our iris contracts with a lot of light being received, which is not a hard task for these miracles of nature, but then having to look at and actually read black words is a little bit hard for them. Absolutely demolished by simple text.

Pro tip: One page of CV = 10 years, or less, of experience. Do NOT go over one page. Make it fit.

The reason for the One Page Rule is simply because attention span of a person who is looking at potentially hundreds of CVs in a day is limited, and their patience might be thin. If a CV is unreadable, or looks absolutely horrible to read at first glance, it will be discarded. The point of a CV is to get an interview, not to get a job immediately. You want them to look at your pixels, actually read them, and give you a call.

There are a few good rules to keep in mind when designing a CV.

Make sure your name is clear, bold, and visible, in upper left corner or in the middle of the document.

Your future employers won't remember the exact details, but they will jot down your name as a potential new recruit. It should be visible, even from a thumbnail.

Contact information should be separated into a different "box", and should include phone number and e-mail address.

In case they wish to contact you, do not make them look for your information for more than a second, they will not bother with that. Adding a home address depends on where you are from, and the kind of job you want. If you are only looking for remote work, home address is not needed, but adding your address nowadays is usually redundant. Better to keep your sensitive information to yourself if you can, as you never know who's watching.

Bullet points are a great way to summarise previous experience, and they never end in a full stop.

Attention to detail and knowledge of proper text formatting etiquette is imperative in a lot of jobs nowadays. Show them you know what you're doing right off the bat with your wonderful CV. In case you are adding slashes (/), there should be space before and after the slash if there are two or more words on each side.

Example:

Peaches/Bananas

Ripe peaches / Spotty bananas

The order of all points should be in reverse chronological order, so the first point should be the most recent work experience or academic achievement, then go down the list with the second, third, and so on.

Font choice is extremely important.

Sans-serif basically means 'no decoration', and is generally perceived as friendlier and more relatable, but is often also more readable (which is why we're using it for this website).

'Serif' fonts have tiny little decorative ends to each letter, and are seen as more formal and professional.

The best design choice is to combine both font categories. Use 'serif' for job titles you've previously held, and the additional information about them, like the company you worked at and the time that you spent there (with the time span being in italics so it doesn't look too uniform and stands out). The bullet points should be in a 'sans-serif' font of your choice, as they usually mean more text, so it's easier to read.

There are many font families to choose from, and most people default to Times New Roman for 'serif', and Arial for 'sans-serif'. Switch it up a bit, and use Garamond instead of TNR, and Calibri instead of Arial. It's the little things that matter the most, and you want to stand out among the crowd, so min-maxxing like this is a good idea.

Keywords should be found, and they should be bold.

First impressions are everything, as often times, the only chance you'll get is a quick glance, unless you pull them in. Words that are bold seem more important, and people will look at them before anything else, so use the bold to highlight the things you want them to look at. A good trick is to bold up the keywords that the employer used in the job description. They mentioned one of the responsibilities is scheduling office meetings? You bold that stuff right up in your CV.

Finding the keywords in job descriptions is basically the same game as bolding them in your CV. There's a lot of corporatese fluff they use in these descriptions, same as we have to, so it's a tug of war from both sides to figure out what the hell everyone's talking about. Here's an example of the first job that popped up on Indeed!

This is a highly effective method, because it works in real life as well. Mirroring gestures and repeating back slightly different words to people we're talking to makes them subconsciously kinda like us. They think we're cool, because they usually think they themselves are cool. Also, it makes sense that if an employer is looking for these specific things, you'll want to mimic them to get a call back. You want them to look at your CV and say "Yes, this is exactly who we need!". It really is that simple, though it will take a little bit more time upfront, but it pays off in the long run. Rather spend 10 minutes on this, than send out hundreds of applications with no results.

Most jobs within a field have very similar responsibilities, perhaps just worded a bit differently. Create a few different versions of your CV to apply to these slightly different jobs.

An important note to all the above is to keep an eye out for any big names. HR loves knowledge of industry-standard software, so if you are proficient in MS Excel (god bless), you put that in and you bold it. Same goes with numbers. Any "increases in volume", or "saved the company X amount of money through this unique special trick of knowing what you're doing", and they will drool at your CV. Big name software and actual quantifiable numbers should always be included and always be bold.

FAQ

Should I use a photo of myself?

Probably not. There are a thousand different biases that people have, and you want to avoid that like the plague. You might be too blonde, too brunette, too skinny, too pretty, too . A photo catches immediate attention, and you don't want them to be looking at you, you want them to look at your words.

I don't have any work experience, what do?

First of all, do not lie outright. If you went through university/college, did you organise any study groups? Did you write any articles for the school's newspaper, or publish any killer essays? Were you a cheerleader? A leader of a book club? Include that. Fluff it up. You probably did something, even if it's having awesome grades. Include professor references, too!

I'm not sure if I should apply to this job.

Apply to literally any job that you feel you can do. On average, women seem to be very shy in applying for jobs they are not at least 90% qualified for, while men don't seem to overthink as we do and just apply to anything that resembles a job description. The worst that can happen is be ignored. Enjoy the rush of euphoria as you hit that Send button!

I'm an American and we are prompted to disclose our very personal information that is usually illegal in other countries.

Disclosing your religion, sexuality, and race can be a double-edged sword. There are many diversity quotas that companies are dying to fill, but if you're unsure about sharing this information, do some stalking of the company's website. They usually have a page dedicated to all their employees, and if you notice a staggering lack of women in there, it actually might be a good idea to apply. Women often offer unique perspectives to problem-solving that men just don't even think about until it's too late. If the company's website mentions any of the new buzzwords, you may fluff up your personality a bit, but make sure the info you provide is not verifiable or outright questionable. You want to go for plausible deniability.

I have large time gaps between jobs.

That is nothing to fret about, unless you're applying for some high-rolling intense corpo job we see in movies. One way to minimise the initial impact of the gaps is to only state the month and the year you spent at a job (August 2019 - March 2020). When you land an interview, and they ask about it, you have three options.

Option A

Claim family issues. People are generally more lenient about this when it comes to women, which might seem like a cool life perk until you realise they are lenient because women are expected to take care of family members. This option also allows for mental health breaks from working, and you wouldn't technically be lying because you are someone's family.

Option B

Claim travel. If you claim you went abroad to volunteer at animal shelters for a year, they will ask you why haven't you put that down in the CV, and that is just an awkward situation. But, if you claim you went abroad or to another state to protest against testing on animals because you feel strongly about the cause, they might even be impressed by your passion. Travelling to see family abroad also works. Make sure your social media accounts are private.

Option C

Claim NDA. The very nature of Non-Disclosure Agreements is that you cannot talk about whatever you did. Can't put it in CV, can't talk about it, that's that. This option requires very good lying skills and a good delivery. If they stay silent after your claim to try to get you to talk, do NOT break the silence. Stare into their soul and wait until they break first.

If you are still worried about the gaps, you can try to fill those with completed certificates and courses that are somewhat related to your field and will help you in the long run.

This is already very long, so take all of this advice, create some gorgeous CVs, and go get that bread.

You can do it!

Understanding the Different Types of Biometric Attendance Solutions and Their Uses

Traditional attendance systems like punch cards and swipe cards are now being replaced by more advanced and secure options: biometric attendance solutions. These systems provide a higher level of security and accuracy, ensuring that businesses can streamline attendance management while safeguarding sensitive information.

In this blog, we'll explore different types of biometric attendance systems, their uses, and why they're becoming the go-to choice for businesses across industries.

What Is a Biometric Attendance System?

A biometric attendance system is a technology that leverages biological data to verify and record an individual's attendance. It uses unique physical or behavioral characteristics—such as fingerprints, facial features, or voice patterns—to authenticate the identity of employees. This ensures that attendance records are accurate and eliminates problems associated with "buddy punching," where employees clock in or out for one another.

Benefits of Using Biometric for Attendance

Before diving into the different types, let's understand why biometric attendance systems are so effective:

Increased Accuracy: Biometrics rely on unique physical traits, making it almost impossible to falsify attendance records.

Enhanced Security: Only authorized personnel can access sensitive areas, boosting workplace security.

Eliminates Proxy Attendance: Ensures that employees are physically present when clocking in or out.

Streamlined Payroll: Reduces errors in payroll processing by automating time tracking.

Ease of Use: Most biometric systems are user-friendly, making them easy to deploy in diverse work environments.

1. Fingerprint Recognition Systems

How It Works

Fingerprint recognition systems are among the most common biometric solutions used for attendance tracking. These systems capture the unique fingerprint patterns of an individual and store them in a database. When an employee places their finger on the scanner, the system matches the scanned fingerprint with the stored template for authentication.

Use Cases

Corporate Offices: Ideal for offices that want to streamline attendance tracking without investing heavily in infrastructure.

Educational Institutions: Useful for schools and universities to track student and staff attendance accurately.

Manufacturing Units: Prevents unauthorized access to restricted areas, improving security.

Pros

Highly accurate and cost-effective.

Easy to install and maintain.

Cons

Might face challenges with dirty or damaged fingerprints.

Contact-based, which may be a concern for hygiene in healthcare environments.

2. Facial Recognition Systems

How It Works

Facial recognition systems use advanced algorithms to analyze the unique facial features of individuals, including the distance between eyes, nose, mouth, and jawline. The system captures an image of the face and matches it with a stored template in the database for authentication.

Use Cases

Healthcare Facilities: Non-contact and hygienic, making it ideal for hospitals and clinics.

Government Offices: Useful for enhancing security and managing large volumes of employees.

Retail Stores: Enables quick identification of employees, improving shift management.

Pros

Contactless and hygienic.

Works well in low-light environments with advanced cameras.

Cons

More expensive than fingerprint systems.

May have accuracy issues with identical twins or significant changes in appearance.

3. Iris Recognition Systems

How It Works

Iris recognition technology scans the unique patterns of an individual’s iris—the colored part of the eye. These patterns are stable throughout a person's life, making iris recognition one of the most accurate biometric methods. A high-resolution camera captures the iris patterns, and the system matches them against stored templates for authentication.

Use Cases

Financial Institutions: Ideal for environments that require a high level of security.

Defense and Security Agencies: Used for secure access control in high-risk areas.

Research Labs: Useful for restricting access to sensitive data or materials.

Pros

Extremely accurate and secure.

Works well in harsh environments.

Cons

More expensive due to specialized equipment.

Requires the individual to look directly into the scanner, which can be time-consuming.

4. Voice Recognition Systems

How It Works

Voice recognition systems analyze the unique voice patterns of an individual, including pitch, tone, and frequency. Employees simply speak a predetermined phrase, and the system compares the voice to the stored sample in the database.

Use Cases

Call Centers: Useful for quick identity verification of remote employees.

Public Sector: Ideal for managing attendance in environments where contactless technology is essential.

IT Companies: Effective for managing attendance in remote and hybrid work environments.

Pros

Contactless and non-invasive.

Easy to deploy in remote work scenarios.

Cons

May have accuracy issues in noisy environments.

Can be affected by changes in an individual's voice due to illness.

5. Palm Vein Recognition Systems

How It Works

Palm vein recognition systems use infrared light to capture the unique vein patterns in an individual’s hand. These patterns are unique to each person, making it a secure biometric method. Employees place their palms over the scanner, which matches the vein patterns with stored data for authentication.

Use Cases

Corporate Offices: Suitable for high-security areas that require strict access control.

Airports: Used for secure identity verification of passengers.

Healthcare: Effective in environments where contact-based systems are not suitable.

Pros

High accuracy and difficult to forge.

Works well in environments where other biometric methods might fail.

Cons

Relatively expensive compared to fingerprint systems.

Requires employees to position their hand correctly over the scanner.

6. Multi-Biometric Systems

How It Works

Multi-biometric systems combine two or more biometric methods—like fingerprint and facial recognition—to enhance security and accuracy. These systems provide an additional layer of verification, making them ideal for environments that require high security.

Use Cases

Banking and Finance: Essential for environments that handle sensitive financial data.

Government Buildings: Useful for securing restricted areas and ensuring strict access control.

Data Centers: Protects critical infrastructure from unauthorized access.

Pros

Enhanced accuracy and security.

Reduces the risk of false positives.

Cons

Higher initial investment.

Complex installation and maintenance.

Choosing the Right Biometric Attendance System

When selecting a biometric solution for your organization, consider the following factors:

Security Needs: Determine the level of security required for your workplace.

Budget: Choose a system that fits within your budget while offering the desired features.

Employee Convenience: Ensure that the system is easy for employees to use.

Scalability: Choose a system that can scale with your business as it grows.

Companies like Spintly offer a variety of biometric solutions tailored to the needs of modern businesses. Whether you need a contactless system or advanced multi-biometric security, there's a solution designed to meet your specific requirements.

Whether you're in corporate, healthcare, or retail, implementing a biometric system can help streamline your operations, improve security, and boost employee accountability.

To explore more about biometric solutions that suit your business needs, consider reaching out to a trusted provider in the industry.

Add ammo to the grocery list

Bullets now for sale alongside eggs and milk through vending machines in certain US stores

American Rounds’ ammunition vending machines scan customers’ drivers licenses and faces to verify their IDs and ages.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — A company has installed computerized vending machines to sell ammunition in grocery stores in Alabama, Oklahoma and Texas, allowing patrons to pick up bullets along with a gallon of milk.

American Rounds said its machines use an identification scanner and facial recognition software to verify the purchaser’s age and are as “quick and easy” to use as a computer tablet.

But advocates worry that selling bullets out of vending machines will lead to more shootings in the U.S., where gun violence killed at least 33 people on Independence Day alone.

The company maintains the age-verification technology means the transactions are as secure, or more secure, than online sales, which may not require the purchaser to submit proof of age, or at retail stores, where there is a risk of shoplifting.

“I’m very thankful for those who are taking the time to get to know us and not just making assumptions about what we’re about,” CEO Grant Magers said.

“We are very pro-Second Amendment, but we are for responsible gun ownership, and we hope we’re improving the environment for the community.”

There have been 15 mass killings involving a firearm in 2024, compared to 39 in 2023, according to a database maintained in a partnership of The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University.

“Innovations that make ammunition sales more secure via facial recognition, age verification, and the tracking of serial sales are promising safety measures that belong in gun stores, not in the place where you buy your kids milk,” said Nick Suplina, senior vice president for law and policy at Everytown for Gun Safety.

“In a country awash in guns and ammo, where guns are the leading cause of deaths for kids, we don’t need to further normalize the sale and promotion of these products.”

Magers said grocery stores and others approached the Texas-based company, which began in 2023, about the idea of selling ammo through automated technology.

The company has one machine in Alabama, four in Oklahoma and one in Texas, with upcoming plans for another in Texas and one in Colorado, he said.

“People I think got shocked when they thought about the idea of selling ammo at a grocery store,” Magers said. “But as we explained, how is that any different than Walmart?”

Federal law requires a person to be 18 to buy shotgun and rifle ammunition and 21 to buy handgun ammunition.

Magers said their machines require a purchaser to be at least 21.

The machine works by requiring a customer to scan their driver’s license to validate that they are age 21 or older.

The scan also checks that it is a valid license, he said.

That is followed by a facial recognition scan to verify “you are who you are saying you are as a consumer,” he said.

Vending machines for bullets or other age-restricted materials is not an entirely new idea.

A Pennsylvania police officer created a company about 12 years ago that places bullet-vending machines in private gun clubs and ranges as a convenience for patrons.

Those machines have no age verification mechanism but are only placed in locations with an age requirement to enter, Master Ammo owner Sam Piccinini said.

Bitdefender: The Ultimate Tool for Secure Online Transactions

Bitdefender is the leading antivirus software on the market, providing superior threat prevention and security. Since 2024, Bitdefender has been ranked one of the best antivirus software companies. It routinely produces outstanding results in independent lab testing, is less costly than its rivals, and contains practical security measures. Bitdefender has a cloud-based engine, and during my testing, the scans were less resource-intensive and more efficient than those of other antivirus companies. Among its subscription options are extra utilities, including online protection, VPN, password manager, and more. Rating: 4.6★★★★★ Overall rank: #3 out of #25 Price: From $29.99/year Free version: Yes Platforms: Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux Introducing Bitdefender Bitdefender is considered to be among the best antivirus software providers. Independent lab tests show that it always works very well. It's also less expensive than its competitors and has valuable security features. During my tests, Bitdefender's scans were faster and used fewer resources than other antivirus providers. This is because Bitdefender's engine is in the cloud. Its expensive plans come with extra tools like a VPN, a password manager, web security, and more. Bitdefender has many great features, but it could still be better. Most of the tools work well, but the VPN only lets you send 200MB of data per device unless you pay extra for the Premium Security Plan. Also, tools like web protection could work better. Pros Cons Best-in-class virus identification Limited VPN usage on most plans Included VPN Fewer features for iOS and macOS Fits your hardware requirements rather loosely Web protection doesn't always work Excellent marks on tests of independence Incompatible with other security software System updates automated Password manager in hand First-rate client assistance Bitdefender Safety Features Bitdefender has a lot of valuable tools that are meant to keep your devices safe. The main tools are a firewall, malware scanner, ransomware removal, VPN, and password organizer. When you use these tools together, they protect you from many different threats. The firewall keeps an eye on all links to and from your device, and the malware scanner finds any bad software and gets rid of it. Ransomware removal keeps your files from being locked by ransomware threats, and the VPN keeps your online activities private. A password manager is an extra layer of protection that helps you make and remember strong passwords. Usage And Performance Details of Bitdefender Bitdefender can be hard to set up at first, but the software is small and easy to use once it's done. It's easy for people who aren't tech-savvy to use because the interface is well-thought-out. The dashboard can be changed, and users can add "quick actions" for tools they use often. Because it is so easy to use and quick, users shouldn't have any significant problems after downloading. During my testing, I looked at how Bitdefender affects the device's speed while it checks and does other things. The results were better than good enough. Bitdefender's scans are quick and don't use too many system resources, so your device will still work well even while being checked for security issues. Bitdefender is an excellent choice for people who want strong protection without slowing down their devices. Bitdefender Detailed Plans Described Bitdefender is well-known for its reasonably priced subscription options. It even provides a free plan and a 30-day money-back guarantee for consumers needing minimal protection. Installable on one device, the entry-level paid option, the Antivirus Plus plan, starts at $29.99 annually. This adaptability lets users select a scheme that meets their security requirements and financial constraints. Bitdefender has four different plans to meet various needs: Free Plan: This plan covers one device and works with Windows, macOS, and Android. It gives you free essential security tools.

HTC U23 Pro

The finding of a new HTC smartphone on one of Google’s databases has fueled rumours of a HTC U23 Pro replacement. Regarding its display kind, the device appears to have made a potentially substantial change that might or might not be beneficial. However, when it comes to audio functionality, Android smartphones may have an advantage over its competitors.

It is once again predicted that the HTC U series of Android smartphones would get a new flagship in 2024. However, the most recent leak does not appear to require the Pro moniker either.

Still, the HTC 2QDA100, or “enodugls 00709” as it appears on the Google Play Console, is now linked to an FHD+ screen, the same as the HTC U23 Pro. Additionally, a mugshot of its purported replacement can be seen in the database, which is where the two gadgets seem to diverge.

The front panel of the “U24 Pro” appears to be more curved than that of its purported predecessor, which had a display that was comparatively flat. However, that design decision gave the HTC U23 Pro some pronounced bezels and a chin, which the 2QDA100 may have omitted altogether.

However, the phone also clearly sports the HTC U23 Pro‘s headphone jack, something that is absent from a large number of other recent Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 smartphones, including the Motorola Edge 50 Pro, OnePlus Nord CE 4.

Multi-Factor Authentication in India

Multi-Factor Authentication: Stepping Up Your Security Game In 2024

In today's digital world, our precious data is constantly under siege. Hackers, data thieves, and malicious actors lurk around every corner, waiting for the weakest link in our online defenses. While strong passwords are a crucial first line of defense, they're no longer enough. Enter Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), the superhero of online security, ready to add an extra layer of protection to your digital fortress.

What Is MFA?

Imagine a bank vault protected by not just a single lock, but multiple layers of security: a thick steel door, a keypad requiring a complex code, and finally, a biometric scanner for double verification. That's essentially how MFA works for your online accounts. Instead of relying solely on a password (the single lock), MFA adds additional "factors" of authentication, making it exponentially harder for unauthorized access.

Secure Key Management

One of the primary functions of HSMs is secure generation, storage, and management of cryptographic keys, preventing unauthorized usage and potential breaches.

These Factors Can Be Categorized Into Three Main Groups:

Something you know:This could be your traditional password, a PIN, or a security question answer. While not the strongest factor alone, it's still a basic hurdle for attackers.

Something you have:This might be your smartphone, a physical security key, or a one-time password (OTP) generated by an app. Having physical possession of the item adds another layer of difficulty for malicious actors.

Something you are:This is where biometrics like fingerprints, facial recognition, or iris scans come into play. These unique physiological characteristics offer the highest level of security, as they're nearly impossible to replicate.

Why Multi-Factor Authentication Is Necessary?

Digital security is critical in today's world because both businesses and users store sensitive information online. Everyone interacts with applications, services, and data that are stored on the internet using online accounts. A breach, or misuse, of this online information could have serious real-world consequences, such as financial theft, business disruption, and loss of privacy.

While passwords protect digital assets, they are simply not enough. Expert cybercriminals try to actively find passwords. By discovering one password, access can potentially be gained to multiple accounts for which you might have reused the password. Multi-factor authentication acts as an additional layer of security to prevent unauthorized users from accessing these accounts, even when the password has been stolen. Businesses use multi-factor authentication to validate user identities and provide quick and convenient access to authorized users

The benefits of MFA extend far beyond personal accounts. Businesses that implement MFA for employee access can significantly strengthen their cybersecurity posture, protecting sensitive data and reducing the risk of costly data breaches. Governments and organizations handling critical infrastructure can also leverage MFA to safeguard vital systems and information.

Different Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Choices Cater To Mobile Devices

Enhancing security while offering varied benefits

One-Time Passwords (OTP):

Innovative applications generate OTPs, similar to traditional security tokens, sent via time-based SMS.

Utilizing a smartphone or tablet eliminates the need for physical tokens, reducing replacement costs for companies.

Biometric Authentication:

Leading smartphone manufacturers prioritize security concerns by offering biometric authentication options.

These features ensure that only authorized users access devices, yet each technique comes with its own set of pros and cons.

How Is Multi-Factor Authentication Implemented In The Cloud?

As businesses transition various aspects like data storage, communication, server infrastructure, and more to the cloud, IT administrators grapple with the challenges of departing from traditional on-premises setups. Ensuring secure user access becomes paramount in safeguarding sensitive data within cloud environments.

Major tech players such as Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services, Facebook, and Twitter recognize this need for heightened security. They've embraced two-factor authentication for entry into their cloud services, with some progressively expanding into more advanced multi-factor authentication protocols.

Multi-Factor Authentication For Microsoft 365

Multi-Factor Authentication in Microsoft 365 strengthens security measures for accessing applications on PCs, Macs, and mobile devices. Upon login, users receive a random 16-character token via the Microsoft 365 admin tool, initiating the authentication process. Afterward, users can set up additional layers of verification, including:

Call My Mobile Phone: Users press # upon receiving a confirmation call to log in via their mobile device.

Call My Office Phone: Similar to the mobile option, the confirmation call is directed to a separate line, such as a desk phone.

Text Code to My Mobile Phone: A code sent via SMS to the user's phone, entered into the Microsoft 365 login form.

Notify Me through App: Utilizing a Microsoft smartphone app (available for Windows Phone, iPhone, and Android) to receive and confirm notifications.

Show One-Time Code in App: Utilizing the same app as the Notify Me feature, a one-time, six-digit code is provided for login verification within the Microsoft 365 interface.

How Can Multi-Factor Authentication Enhance Security?

Heightened Security: MFA significantly raises the bar for security by requiring multiple forms of verification. This makes it exponentially harder for hackers to gain unauthorized access.

Compliance Adherence: In various industries, compliance standards necessitate robust security measures. MFA aids in meeting these standards, ensuring adherence to regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS.

Versatility and Adaptability: MFA solutions are versatile and adaptable, allowing integration across diverse platforms and devices. From mobile apps generating time-based tokens to hardware tokens and biometric authentication, the options cater to different user preferences and security needs.

Implementing MFA: From Zero To Hero

The good news is that implementing MFA is easier than ever. Most major online platforms and services offer built-in MFA options, often with just a few clicks in your account settings. Here are some quick tips:

Start with the essentials: Enable MFA for your email, bank accounts, social media profiles, and any other platform where you store sensitive information.

Choose the right factors: Consider a combination of convenience and security when selecting your MFA methods. Avoid relying solely on SMS OTPs.

Educate yourself and others: Spread awareness about MFA and its importance within your family, friends, and workplace.

Stay vigilant: Keep your software and devices updated to patch vulnerabilities and maintain strong security practices.

MFA: Not Just A Buzzword, A Necessity

In today's digital landscape, cybersecurity is no longer optional. Multi-Factor Authentication is a powerful tool that can significantly improve your online security posture, protecting your valuable data and accounts from unauthorized access. Don't wait for a data breach to wake you up - take control of your security and embrace the power of MFA today.

Remember, a little extra effort now can save you a lot of heartache and headaches in the future. So, choose the most suitable MFA method and strengthen your mobile security today!
