But the concern is real because if the chips lack security in such situations, bad guys can take advantage and the data stored inside can be stolen,” said The Independent.

Photo: Sina Technology According to CNBC, Apple today released a report on its App Store-related data, mainly describing the work the App Store has done in the direction of security and fraud prevention over the past year, and published a lot of related data. This is the first time Apple publishes such data, in this report, Apple does not point out what they bring to developers and users, but what they refuse to ensure safety and experience. App Store experience. Denied 1 million applications Since its inception in 2008, the Apple App Store has become the world’s largest distribution channel and app download platform. According to official data, up to now, there are a total of 1.8 million apps distributed on the app store in 175 different countries and regions around the world. In addition to the quantity, quality and safety of the App Store are also important reasons for many to choose, and even the reason why users switch from Android to iPhone. But the average user rarely thinks behind millions of apps is Apple’s attempt to secure apps on the platform. In fact, security threats have existed since the App Store was launched in 2008, and are becoming more sophisticated as the App Store has grown. Of course, Apple is also working to raise and improve its own security standards. In order for high-quality apps to be listed on the App Store and for developers and users to have the best experience, behind that is the efforts of the Apple App Store review team, including machines (the program AI detects), but Apple believes humans are the last line of defense. On the one hand, the review team develops relevant guidelines and is constantly updating to measure if an app meets Apple’s security standards at launch. On the other hand, many developers have encountered the case of having to submit apps multiple times before they hit the shelves, behind this being the tight scrutiny of Apple’s review team. The reason may be because their application is incomplete / not good enough or not satisfied Apple with the security requirements. In 2020, Apple’s app review team supported 180,000 new developers to bring their work to the App Store for the first time; However, due to the stringent app store rating criteria, many applications were rejected. According to Apple’s disclosure, they rejected 1 million new apps and 1 million app update requests last year. Let’s take a closer look at the apps that were denied on the list, partly because of a breach; There were also 215,000 applications rejected for asking for too much user data on mobile phones; 48,000 apps were rejected because they contained hidden functions, 150,000 apps were rated as spam or otherwise copied apps. All will affect the quality of the apps in the App Store in varying degrees, thereby affecting the user experience. These numbers represent Apple’s ambition to pursue its own high-quality app store and ecosystem, and is also the reason why many Android users “admire” the iOS ecosystem as mentioned above. . “Stone” 470,000 toxic developers Apple CEO Tim Cook speaks at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) at the San Jose Convention Center in 2018. In addition to denying apps, Apple sometimes punishes developers for violating the rules. For example, some developers intentionally change application functionality after passing a review or even engaging in criminals / crimes. The most common are gambling-related apps, illegal lending, and pornography; there are even apps for drug trafficking, sex chat, and more. According to Apple data, by 2020, about 95,000 apps will be removed from the App Store due to fraud and fraud. If a developer’s violation is severe or recurring, their account will be permanently closed. In 2020, Apple terminated 470,000 developer accounts because of the risk of fraud. In the past month alone, Apple blocked more than 3.2 million app installs through the Apple Developer Enterprise Program. The original purpose of this project was to allow large organizations like companies and businesses to develop apps for internal use only, not open to the public. But some people use this approach to “bypass” the internal application review and abuse process. Of course, no matter how tight the controls are, it’s inevitable that there are up to 1.8 million apps on the App Store. Apple has also opened up a feedback mechanism, users or developers can choose to “report a problem” function in the App Store or call Apple support. Stop $ 1.5 billion in fraud suspected transactions Problem security of Android is often compared with Apple. Since the Apple ID is tied to the payment account and is the “key” of the Apple ecosystem, it is also very easy to become a target for criminals. As a result, Apple is building more secure payment technologies, such as Apple Pay and StoreKit. Currently, more than 900,000 apps in the App Store are using these technologies to sell goods and services. For example, credit card information in Apple Pay won’t be shared with the merchant (and the merchant won’t see it), which eliminates risk factors in the checkout process. However, criminals can also use the App Store to purchase goods and services for money laundering or other improper purposes. According to official data, by 2020, Apple prevented more than 3 million stolen credit cards from being used to purchase goods or services through technical means + manual review. In addition, they block more than $ 1.5 billion in “potentially fraudulent transactions”. The revelation comes amid Epic Games’ antitrust lawsuit against Apple and focuses on the App Store failures. The Fortnite maker is looking to force Apple to remove 30% of the commission on in-app purchases. Epic lawyers have argued that Apple’s App Store is too “wall-bound,” hindering app makers from competing, and that Apple’s rules are unevenly applied to different developers. . The lawsuit filed by Epic Games calls for changes to the existing app review process and the use of other in-app payment systems. Epic also says Apple’s process is unfair, sometimes approving malware in the store. Apple employees argued in court that the number of errors it made was very small given the size of the App Store. Apple also strongly denies the abuse of market power, saying that the lawsuit Epic filed with is an “attack” on a business model that benefits developers as well as consumers. Apple has protected the App Store as an essential part of its business. Last week, an Apple lawyer argued that allowing users to install software from outside the App Store, like Android, creates a security risk and that Apple doesn’t want to be Android.

These days, when the Covid-19 epidemic is complicated and need to limit going out to prevent epidemics, Ms. Nguyen Thu Ha (office worker, living in Hanoi) has a habit of buying and storing food. once a week. Ms. Thu Ha shared: Usually she only goes to the market once a week on weekends. The amount of food each time she buys just enough for 7-10 days to ensure quality. According to the mother of these two children, if applying the way she is doing, the days when she comes home from work, cooking becomes idle only takes 15-20 minutes. Ms. Nguyen Thu Ha said that preliminarily processing and packing into separate boxes helps you save time when cooking. With her blood and blood experience in the first time, she did not process much, sometimes only wash and put a pound of meat in the freezer, until she only took 1 pound of meat to cook for 1 meal to see the suffering. After changing “tactics”, she began to prepare food, cut into pieces enough for one meal and then divided into small trays and boxes. Here are some food preservation tips that Ms. Ha has applied to both cook and keep the freshness, deliciousness, and ensure the food safety of the food. For sliced ​​or chopped foods (ground meat, chicken heart, oyster gut …) Ms. Ha shared that she often went to the supermarket to buy clean food and then put it in an ice tray with a lid, which helps to preserve the food in each box, easy to take, and quickly defrost. If 1 person eats 1 umbrella, 3 people can eat 3-4 plots, depending on need. For scallions, tomatoes Onions are seasoning vegetables used regularly in the meals of Mrs. Ha’s family. Wash onions, flake or roast all the water, cut into pieces or shred them into a bowl, drop the onions in boiling water. Very convenient and there will be onions at all times. With tomatoes, too, she often buys a lot and after cleaning and removing the damaged part, she chooses the areca piece to keep it in the tray in the freezer. Root onions you can plug into a bowl of water to have more fresh onions Tomato is a difficult food to preserve, but Ms. Ha is very confident with how not to spoil tomatoes. She often buys a lot, washed and cut off the damaged part, sliced ​​the areca nut and put it in the tray to prevent freezer. For fish meat: Rinse, drain, place in a tray and put in freezer. For leafy vegetables: N If you wash it, you must rotate it to drain it for a long time. If it doesn’t drain, the vegetables will quickly get boots. Lettuce should be washed and dried for 5 days. Small food in freezer. What to do if the container is large and has a small meal every meal? Use foil to prevent food layers, this prevents food from sticking together, and thinly spread foods also thaw faster. Separating the 2 layers of meat with foil prevents the meat from sticking to each other. The way to do it is very simple: Put the food in the box, spread 1 layer of foil, place the second layer of food, then put foil again, and do so until the box is full. Or you can replace foil with banana leaves, that will better protect the environment. Choose good food containers According to Ms. Ha, in order to preserve food well, fresh for a long time, the food containers must be really good. Should use a storage box suitable for the freezer. There are several types of high-end plastic containers, which when storing frozen food, are easy to remove, but the food does not stick to the side of the box. The sealed box has both good preservation and no mixed smell in the refrigerator, for 7-10 days for vegetables, and still fresh for 20 days of fruits.

From Till Bücker, tagesschau.de On Wednesday, the largest US trading platform for cryptocurrencies will venture onto the trading floor. Proponents of Bitcoin and Co. see this as a further step towards broader acceptance of digital currencies as an asset class. According to the company’s own information, 114.9 million shares are to be listed under the symbol “COIN” on the New York technology exchange Nasdaq via a direct placement without the support of investment banks and pricing procedures. This makes Coinbase the first crypto company to be listed on a major American stock exchange. Experts also describe the stock market debut as a groundbreaking event for the regulation of digital currencies.

43 million users

The company from San Francisco was recently valued by investors at almost 68 billion dollars. According to the business magazine “Forbes”, Coinbase could achieve an overall valuation of more than 100 billion dollars in the transaction – making it one of the largest IPOs in recent years. In October 2018, the company was valued at just eight billion dollars in a financing round. In 2012, Coinbase boss Brian Armstrong and Fred Ersham, who is no longer operational as a director, founded the platform to enable easy and fair trading in cryptocurrencies – apparently with success. According to the company, around 43 million investors in over 100 countries use Coinbase to invest. 2.8 million at least once a month.

Brian Armstrong is the boss and founder of Coinbase. At least Coinbase is benefiting from the transactions: for 2020, the company reported revenues of around $ 1.3 billion, which was more than double the previous year. The bottom line was a profit of $ 322 million. In 2019, Coinbase had earned a minus of 30 million. The soaring is closely related to the Hype about cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and Ether in particular have only known one direction since autumn, with minor exceptions: up. Both currencies recently reached a new record high. At the end of September, a Bitcoin had cost $ 10,000. Today, investors have to pay more than $ 60,000 for the oldest and largest cyber currency.

How does trading on crypto exchanges work?

Anyone who wants to trade cryptocurrencies – for example, shares in Bitcoin – has several options. Usually there is different from the stock market no middleman like a bank or broker. Investors can therefore buy and sell mainly via crypto exchanges. In addition to Coinbase, this also includes, for example, the Stuttgart Stock Exchange with its BISON app and the BSDEX (Stuttgart Stock Exchange Digital Exchange) as well as FTX, Binance, Bitstamp, Bitso or Kraken, which are also planning an IPO in the coming year. Investors set up an account at the crypto exchanges and can trade with relatively low transaction costs, store their coins and exchange them for traditional currencies. With traditional exchanges, on the other hand, brokers are always interposed to process the transactions. What is an advantage in terms of transparency is, on the other hand, also a risk. “It can happen that stock exchanges are exposed to hacker attacks and the money disappears,” said Leon Berghoff from the crypto trading company Sixtant. According to a report by the server service provider “Atlas VPN”, there were more than 120 hacker attacks on cryptocurrencies in 2020 alone. A lack of government regulation could also become a problem.

Investors should look carefully

“There are now over 200 crypto exchanges worldwide. Some of them are well done, but others are not”, says Philipp Sandner, head of the Blockchain Center at the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, in an interview tagesschau.de. Regulation in this country offers the best protection against a total loss of the investment. For example, Coinbase, the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, bitcoin.de or the Berlin crypto bank Bitwala have applied for approval from the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin).

Expert Sandner advises paying attention to licenses. “These four companies should get the licenses pretty sure. With all the others, investors should stay away from it if they are not entirely sure,” said Sandner. Many foreign exchanges have not applied for a BaFin license and deliberately circumvented regulation due to high costs.

Security through a good reputation

In addition, a certain reputation is also helpful. “Once a company has built up a good reputation like the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, it will do everything possible not to damage it,” says Sandner. That is an additional protective mechanism. The reputation also contributes to success at Coinbase. The group has always complied with the rules and is therefore even allowed to advertise. In addition, hackers have never got through. “You can compare it a little with airlines. As soon as an airplane had problems, the whole country suddenly no longer wants to fly with it – and vice versa,” said the crypto expert. Investors should first be careful with unknown and non-established crypto exchanges. The IT measures on many platforms have meanwhile become more professional. In general, however, cybercrime can never be ruled out.
