    Microsoft izstrādājis drošības spraudni Chrome tīmekļa pārlūkam

    Jaunākie raksti

    Chrome tīmekļa pārlūkā jau ir iebūvēta aizsardzība pret aizdomīgu tīmekļa lapu apmeklēšanu, bet Microsoft uzskata, ka Chrome pārlūku var padarīt vēl drošāku. Microsoft ir izstrādājis Chrome spraudni Windows Defender Browser Protection, kas piedāvā aizsardzību pret tā dēvētajiem pikšķerēšanas uzbrukumiem.

    Microsoft uzsver, ka 2017. gadā veiktajos pētījumos vienmēr atzīts Edge pārlūka drošums. Edge pārlūks spējis bloķēt 99% pikšķerēšanas uzbrukumu, kamēr Chrome aizsardzība tika galā tikai ar 87% pikšķerēšanas uzbrukumu. Teorijā jaunais Chrome spraudnis arī nodrošinātu pārlūkam 99% aizsardzību pret šāda veida uzbrukumiem. Spraudnis papildina Chrome drošību, jo netiek atspējota esošā Chrome pārlūka aizsardzība.

    Lai arī ideja ir laba, tomēr Microsoft šādā veidā kārtējo reizi pazemina vēlmi izmantot Edge pārlūku. Microsoft ir būtiski uzlabojis Edge pārlūka ātrdarbību un drošību, bet Edge saskarne vēl arvien nav ērta, tāpēc tīmekļa lietotāji dod priekšroku Chrome vai Firefox.

    Microsoft Corporation (/ˈmaɪkrəˌsɒft/,[2][3] abbreviated as MS) is an American multinational technology company with headquarters in Redmond, Washington. It develops, manufactures, licenses, supports and sells computer software, consumer electronics, personal computers, and services. Its best known software products are the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems, the Microsoft Office suite, and the Internet Explorer and Edge web browsers. Its flagship hardware products are the Xbox video game consoles and the Microsoft Surface lineup of touchscreen personal computers. As of 2016, it is the world’s largest software maker by revenue,[4] and one of the world’s most valuable companies.[5] The word “Microsoft” is a portmanteau of “microcomputer” and “software”.[6] Microsoft was founded by Paul Allen and Bill Gates on April 4, 1975, to develop and sell BASIC interpreters for the Altair 8800. It rose to dominate the personal computer operating system market with MS-DOS in the mid-1980s, followed by Microsoft Windows. The company’s 1986 initial public offering (IPO), and subsequent rise in its share price, created three billionaires and an estimated 12,000 millionaires among Microsoft employees. Since the 1990s, it has increasingly diversified from the operating system market and has made a number of corporate acquisitions—their largest being the acquisition of LinkedIn for $26.2 billion in December 2016,[7] followed by Skype Technologies for $8.5 billion in May 2011.[8] As of 2015, Microsoft is market-dominant in the IBM PC-compatible operating system market and the office software suite market, although it has lost the majority of the overall operating system market to Android.[9] The company also produces a wide range of other consumer and enterprise software for desktops and servers, including Internet search (with Bing), the digital services market (through MSN), mixed reality (HoloLens), cloud computing (Azure) and software development (Visual Studio). Steve Ballmer replaced Gates as CEO in 2000, and later envisioned a “devices and services” strategy.[10] This began with the acquisition of Danger Inc. in 2008,[11] entering the personal computer production market for the first time in June 2012 with the launch of the Microsoft Surface line of tablet computers; and later forming Microsoft Mobile through the acquisition of Nokia’s devices and services division. Since Satya Nadella took over as CEO in 2014, the company has scaled back on hardware and has instead focused on cloud computing, a move that helped the company’s shares reach its highest value since December 1999.[12][13] Childhood friends Paul Allen and Bill Gates sought to make a successful business utilizing their shared skills in computer programming.[15] In 1972 they founded their first company, named Traf-O-Data, which sold a rudimentary computer to track and analyze automobile traffic data. While Gates enrolled at Harvard, Allen pursued a degree in computer science at Washington State University, though he later dropped out of school to work at Honeywell.[16] The January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics featured Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems’s (MITS) Altair 8800 microcomputer,[17] which inspired Allen to suggest that they could program a BASIC interpreter for the device. After a call from Gates claiming to have a working interpreter, MITS requested a demonstration. Since they didn’t yet have one, Allen worked on a simulator for the Altair while Gates developed the interpreter. Although they developed the interpreter on a simulator and not the actual device, it worked flawlessly when they (in March 1975) demonstrated the interpreter to MITS in Albuquerque, New Mexico. MITS agreed to distribute it, marketing it as Altair BASIC.[14]:108, 112–114 Gates and Allen officially established Microsoft on April 4, 1975, with Gates as the CEO.[18] The original name of “Micro-Soft” was suggested by Allen.[19][20] In August 1977 the company formed an agreement with ASCII Magazine in Japan, resulting in its first international office, “ASCII Microsoft”.[21] Microsoft moved to a new home in Bellevue, Washington in January 1979.[18] Microsoft entered the operating system (OS) business in 1980 with its own version of Unix, called Xenix.[22] However, it was MS-DOS that solidified the company’s dominance. After negotiations with Digital Research failed, IBM awarded a contract to Microsoft in November 1980 to provide a version of the CP/M OS, which was set to be used in the upcoming IBM Personal Computer (IBM PC).[23] For this deal, Microsoft purchased a CP/M clone called 86-DOS from Seattle Computer Products, which it branded as MS-DOS, though IBM rebranded it to PC DOS. Following the release of the IBM PC in August 1981, Microsoft retained ownership of MS-DOS. Since IBM had copyrighted the IBM PC BIOS, other companies had to reverse engineer it in order for non-IBM hardware to run as IBM PC compatibles, but no such restriction applied to the operating systems. Due to various factors, such as MS-DOS’s available software selection, Microsoft eventually became the leading PC operating systems vendor.[24][25]:210 The company expanded into new markets with the release of the Microsoft Mouse in 1983, as well as with a publishing division named Microsoft Press.[14]:232 Paul Allen resigned from Microsoft in 1983 after developing Hodgkin’s disease.[26] Allen claimed that Gates wanted to dilute his share in the company when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease because he didn’t think he was working hard enough.[27] After leaving Microsoft, Allen lost billions of dollars on ill-conceived or mistimed technology investments. He later invested in low-tech sectors, sports teams, and commercial real estate.[28] Despite having begun jointly developing a new operating system, OS/2, with IBM in August 1985,[29] Microsoft released Microsoft Windows, a graphical extension for MS-DOS, on November 20.[14]:242–243, 246 Microsoft moved its headquarters to Redmond on February 26, 1986, and on March 13 went public,[30] with the resulting rise in stock making an estimated four billionaires and 12,000 millionaires from Microsoft employees.[31] Microsoft released its version of OS/2 to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) on April 2, 1987.[14] In 1990, due to the partnership with IBM, the Federal Trade Commission set its eye on Microsoft for possible collusion, marking the beginning of over a decade of legal clashes with the U.S. government.[32] :243–244 Meanwhile, the company was at work on a 32-bit OS, Microsoft Windows NT, which was heavily based on their copy of the OS/2 code. It shipped on July 21, 1993, with a new modular kernel and the Win32 application programming interface (API), making porting from 16-bit (MS-DOS-based) Windows easier. Once Microsoft informed IBM of NT, the OS/2 partnership deteriorated.[33] In 1990, Microsoft introduced its office suite, Microsoft Office. The suite bundled separate productivity applications, such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.[14]:301 On May 22, Microsoft launched Windows 3.0, featuring streamlined user interface graphics and improved protected mode capability for the Intel 386 processor.[34] Both Office and Windows became dominant in their respective areas.[35][36] On July 27, 1994, the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division filed a Competitive Impact Statement that said, in part: “Beginning in 1988, and continuing until July 15, 1994, Microsoft induced many OEMs to execute anti-competitive “per processor” licenses. Under a per processor license, an OEM pays Microsoft a royalty for each computer it sells containing a particular microprocessor, whether the OEM sells the computer with a Microsoft operating system or a non-Microsoft operating system. In effect, the royalty payment to Microsoft when no Microsoft product is being used acts as a penalty, or tax, on the OEM’s use of a competing PC operating system. Since 1988, Microsoft’s use of per processor licenses has increased.”[37]

    Hm, kas par ierīci/izšķrtspēju? Izskatās kaut kas dikti mazs. Baneri var aizvākt nospiežot Esc taustiņu.

    banneri var aizvākt nospiežot X, ja vien nav līks prāts

    Šajā konkrētajā gadījumā izšķirtspēja ir tik maza, ka to X var arī nedabūt rokā.

    es viņu aizveru nospiežot jebkur tikai ne uz banera.
    Dīvaini, ka ādbloks izlaida viņu cauri šoreiz. Parasti nav laidis cauri.

    Kāpēc tiek uzskatīts, ka “… pazemina vēlmi izmantot Edge pārlūku”?
    Manā skatījumā tā tieši sanāk neslikta reklāma ar domu, ka redziet hromam vajag papildus spraudņus, kas kārtējo reizi noslogo datoru, kā arī papildus kautkas jāmeklē un jāinstalē, bet edge tas viss jau ir iekļauts.

    Lietotājs bez IT specifiskām interesēm par šāda spraudņa esamību tāpat neuzzinās un turpinās mierīgi gulēt tālāk.
