Samsung outs revamped Galaxy Ace Plus: bigger screen, worse resolution

Samsung clearly didn’t spend the holiday season kicking back listening to Dick Clark , or else it wouldn’t be able to show off the revamped edition of the Galaxy Ace : the Galaxy Ace Plus. Unimaginative names aside, the budget blower gets a speed bump, to last year’s minimum spec — 1GHz processor, five megapixel camera, 3GB internal memory, HSDPA and a 3.65-inch HVGA (320 x 480) screen (really, Samsung?)

Man on vacation confused for a Russian spy, almost restarts cold war

Threats of Russian espionage can come from the unlikeliest of sources , as Jim Mimlitz, owner of Navionics Research, a small integrator firm, knows only too well. Curran Gardner Public Water District, just outside of Springfield, Illinois, employed Mimlitz’s firm to set up its Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system (SCADA), and the spy games began when Mimlitz went on vacation in Russia. While there, he logged into the SCADA system to check some data, then logged off and went back to enjoying Red Square and the finest vodka mother Russia has to offer

Feds deny hacking caused Illinois water pump failure

Did a hacker or group of hackers, possibly in Russia, manage to physically destroy a water pump in Springfield, Illinois? That was the word last week, when reports spread that hackers had managed to take control of the water plant’s Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System (or SCADA), which gave them the ability to repeatedly turn the pump on and off and eventually burn it out. Now, however, both the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security say that their investigations have found no evidence of hacking or malicious activity, and that earlier reports were based on “raw, unconfirmed data.” As you might expect, that explanation isn’t quite being accepted by everyone, including Joe Weiss, the security researcher who first reported the incident
