 Hello, everybody! Here is IT News on HACMA software channel. In today's issue, you'll see how electronic cigarettes can help hackers, the glasses to replace your laptop, a new 144-core CPU by NVIDIA, zoom-in lenses, and another attempt to hack Microsoft. E-cigarette is a way to hack your PC. The device invented to help people kill off smoking appears to be not so safe as expected. You wouldn't believe, but the seemingly harmless e-cigarette can be used by bad guys to hack your computer. Most e-cigarettes are powered by a lithium-ion battery that has to be charged from time to time, and this can be done easily from your computer's USB port. There are visible advantages to that. You don't need to carry around the dedicated charger and the charger from almost any other device with this kind of port can be used for vaporizers as well. If a special piece of electronics is implanted into the cigarette, it can make your computer think that this little gadget is actually a keyboard, which starts sending certain commands to your PC. Another aspect, a way your security is at risk, is how e-cigarette can be used to intercept you into net traffic. Many users have already experienced such attacks and posted corresponding videos on YouTube. It is your chance to believe it or not, but whatever you may think, just follow simple security rules, install latest and device software, use vapor gadgets only after you read the manual, and always remember to replace their disposable elements when they need to be replaced. One more fix to feel more secure is to charge them from wall sockets instead of USB ports. Remember, even a single hacker can do lots of damage. The glasses to replace your laptop Engineers from NemoPlanet claimed their mission is to put a tiny powerful multi-screen computer into your pocket and make it possible to work from anywhere. With this gadget, conventional computers will become history. Nemo is a mini-computer you wear on your head and it gives you six virtual screens to work when you are away from the workstation. With all that, Nemo looks better than most smart glasses. It runs on the proprietary Android-based operating system called Nemo and is powered by a platform built around the integrated Qualcomm Snapdragon XR1 CPU. Nemo is designed to have Bluetooth keyboard and mouse as its main input option. The gadget doesn't support 5G and LTE, but is compensated by Wi-Fi connectivity. The device only weighs 120 grams. As to the 720p displays, they might seem too small, but they are the scale equivalent of large 45-50 inch screens. The whole system is supposed to work for about two hours and a half on a single charge, but the developer's promise to extend its battery life so far. This gadget is not meant for high-performance applications, but you can feel quite comfortable with stuff like Microsoft Word and its rivals. The glasses will come with a carrying case that can be used as a charging station with a built-in battery similar to many wireless eras. Nvidia has presented a new hopper architecture and a powerful H100 computer accelerator based on GPU GH100. Also, the company disclosed some details concerning a product officially announced a year before. It's the Grace processor. To begin with, the picture they showed us a year ago was a motherboard with a Grace CPU on the left and a GH100 GPU on the right. Like that, Nvidia didn't say anything about the graphics part of that combination. So what exactly is Grace? In fact, Nvidia doesn't say much on this matter, but takes some time to describe what they call the Grace CPU superchip. As a matter of fact, this is a combination of two similar processors joined by an NVLink C2C new generation bus with a throughput of 900 gigabytes per second. And Nvidia says this combination uses 144 processor cores in its top configuration, so it logically means one CPU can have as many as 72 cores. Other features include LPDDR5X memory controller with a throughput of 1TB per second and 396 MB of cache and the ARMV9 processor architecture. Other features include LPDDR5X memory controller with a throughput of 1TB per second and 396 MB of cache and the ARMV9 processor architecture. Yet, even Grace CPU superchip is not the top of Nvidia's line in this segment. At the presentation, the company's CEO showed possible configurations including this chip and the most impressive one was made of a single Grace CPU and two hopper GPUs. One could only guess how much power this combination may draw, but we know that the Grace CPU superchip with the memory models needs at least 500W. In general, if we are not limited to configurations based on a single board and Nvidia technologies letting combine a CPU superchip and eight hopper GPUs, Grace CPU superchip is clearly designed for using data processing centers involved with artificial intelligence infrastructure that needs absolutely number crunching compute power. The company says that solutions based on the Grace CPU superchip will be available for sale in the first six months of the next year. Zoom in lenses Evidently, this news will inspire everyone who have to wear contact lenses. A research team from University of California, San Diego have created a pair of soft contact lenses able to zoom the picture in and out by dragging your eye movements. To zoom in and have a closer look at something, you only need to blink twice in a short period of time. However, things are not so smooth yet, but the technology needs to be improved as the zoom feature only works as long as you wear a piece of special equipment on your head. On the one hand, such lenses are a good thing to have if you need to make out the number of an approaching bus or a roadside. But on the other hand, accidental blinking twice while you are driving may result in an accident. To create smart soft contact lenses, scientists measured the signal generated when eyes move in a certain manner. For example, when you look right or left, the soft contact lens reacts to electrical impulses generated as your eyes move. This means that the lens knows you are looking right or left and can perform the function linked to this specific kind of movement. However, in spite of the fact that the lenses are unlikely to be improved in the nearest future, this development opens the way to new opportunities and further technological advances. The lens itself is made of solid water enclosed in a pair of electrically active polymer film coatings and is controlled by five electrodes positioned around the eye. The lens can change their structure when electrical charge is applied to the polymer film layers of the lens. And it allows you to zoom in or out of the picture by blinking. Because of the multi-layered soft polymer used to make the lens, a relative change in the focal length can be as large as 32%, which sounds very impressive. However, the smart lenses were created not as a ready-to-sell commercial product, but rather as a demonstration of the potential of such technologies to end our life in the nearest future and make it easier. Microsoft confirmed its internal systems hacked and source code stolen. Recently, Lapsos hacking group has hit the headlines after tapeting internal systems of NVIDIA, Samsung, Vodafone and others. Now, the victim list also includes Microsoft that has confirmed a single account had been compromised and a part of service code for some of its products had been stolen. The Microsoft report says they have been watching Lapsos activities for several weeks, which helped them learn more detail on the methods used by the hackers to compromise accounts belonging to various companies. As reported by Microsoft's threat intelligence center, the hackers' main goal is to gain privileged access to internal IT systems of their victims in order to steal their data and use it for further extortion. This is not the first time that Microsoft confirmed some of its source code had been stolen. Previously, the code was stolen by hackers after they had launched a large-scale attack on SolarWinds software. The Lapsos group admits it only managed to acquire 90% of the code for big maps, whereas that number is around 45% for the code for Cortana and Bing itself. And that is all for now.
