Commissioner Gilberto Gauto, Identifications Department chief of the National Police, addressed the reasons for the maintenance of the computer system are performed. The work, which erupted Friday forced to stall print jobs of certificates and passports. Just in the last hours of this Tuesday achieve complete the task, as indicated in touch with Canal 100.

The head of the police department said that this work was necessary to reduce the risk of crashing the system . He explained that the agency does not have access to the source code of the software, because it was a donation threshold achieved through the program. The system dates back to 2009 and since then could not be any improvement due to the lack of access for technicians. For over a year ago repairs type “patch” to keep operating are made, he explained.

This time it was decided to start a more complex work, to free up space and recover storage capacity due that, otherwise there is a danger that the system falls. “If you come to crash the system, we have no way to support us because we have the source code; to avoid just such a situation is that hcemos these preventive work, “he said.

said that prompted the urgent purchase of a new system to replace the current identifications and thereby reduce the risks. “Hopefully we can get to year end,” he declared. He noted that the current maintenance “we will be able to work not quiet, but a little better”, but insisted that the system needs to be replaced.

To illustrate the shortcomings, said that although a law determines that the blood type must be entered in the identity card, such a step is impossible, because there is no possibility to include that field in the software. “We have this field and we have no ability to print it,” he declared.

A bug in the software of Linux Bash would threaten … – elEconomista.es

Reuters

25.09.2014 – 10:26

Note to users: 0.0 ( 1 votes)

A failure of recently discovered security software Linux widely used, known as Bash, could represent more threat to computer users Heartbleed error that arose in April, cybersecurity experts warned yesterday.

Bash is the software that is used to control the command line in many computers running Linux. Hackers can exploit a bug in Bash to take full control of a compromised system, security experts said.

The Heartbleed mistake allowed hackers to spy on computers, but not take control of them, said Dan Guido, CEO of security firm Trails of Bits.

“The method of exploiting this issue is much simpler. Simply copy and paste a line of code and get good results,” said.

Guido said it is considering a line drawn from non-essential servers to protect your company from attacks by Bash error until you can patch the software to correct the fault.

Tod Beardsley, engineering manager at cybersecurity firm Rapid7, warned that the error had a note of gravity “10”, which means it has maximum impact, and a “low” rating on operational complexity, which means it is relatively easy to use by hackers to launch attacks.

“When using this vulnerability, attackers can potentially take control of the operating system, access to confidential information, make changes, etc.” , Beardsley said. “Any systems that will occupy Bash should apply the patch immediately,” he added.

Heartbleed, discovered in April, is an error in an open source encryption software called OpenSSL. The ruling jeopardized the data of millions of people, because OpenSSL is used in nearly two thirds of all websites. He also forced a dozen launch technological security patches for hundreds of products using OpenSSL companies.

Venezuela: government new law promotes free software – SciDev.Net Latin America and the Caribbean

[CARACAS] Public institutions, universities and nonprofit organizations in Venezuela financed with government resources should use free software, according to new Infogobierno Act, which took effect on August 17.
The law promises to boost ‘transparency in the public sector; promote the development of information technologies in the Free State and to ensure technological independence. “Guido
Ochoa, president of the Commission on Science and Technology of the National Assembly of Venezuela, told SciDev.Net that the legislation seeks to incorporate innovative local “to believe that free software can be used by our public institutions. This will strengthen the technological independence of Venezuela. “



At the University of the Andes use free software for several years. Among other benefits, saves a lot of money on licenses


Guido Ochoa

Not less than two percent of the funds raised by the Law on Science, Technology and Innovation (LOCTI) through compulsory contribution that private companies will be used to finance the objectives of the Act Infogobierno, according to the official resolution.
This would mean about $ 300 million, according to public reports corresponding to 2012 year 2013 no official figures.
Congressman said he expects the transition to universities give fluently: “At the University of the Andes, for example, use free software for several years. Among other benefits, saves a lot of money on licenses. “
Ochoa also mentioned that several scientific research offices of Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA), the state responsible for the extraction and marketing of domestic crude oil, have been working from 2013 with the free software “Guardian of the Dawn” operating system developed in conjunction with Cuban universities, which is not compatible with other existing on the market.
Marianne Díaz Hernández, a lawyer and representative digital rights Creative Commons in Venezuela, told SciDev.Net which is considered positive law, but rejected his presentation as a political project.
“For years we have tried to make believe that free software is left when it responds to the philosophy of individual freedom and collective construction of knowledge, “he said.
” Free software does not understand concepts such as ‘sovereignty’, because take a piece of software and make ‘copyleft’, you are allowing, and encouraging, that any person from any country not use, alter, make derivatives or do anything with it, even sell it. “
Díaz Hernández said Infogobierno Act requires that the software used in public institutions is also “copyleft”. “This is a very positive aspect of technological innovation, beneficial to the development and education,” he said.
According to the expert, the initial investment should be directed to “prepare teachers, students and public employees in the proper management of free software “and ensure that all work done with proprietary software, can be opened, modified and used in the new open source operating systems will work with the government and vice versa.

IPhone software problem has links to maps … – Larepublica.com.co

The similarities do not end up in the apology he gave disgruntled Apple customers. The same person was responsible for Apple to detect problems before they both products were launched. Josh Williams, a middle manager who oversees the quality assurance group corresponding software for Apple iOS Mobile, was in charge of quality control for the maps, according to people who know Apple’s management structure.

Williams was removed from the team maps when the software provided users unreliable guidance and gave erroneous reference points names, but remained in charge of testing iOS, a person who asked said not to be identified because the information is not public.

Multiple clients turned to social media to complain about losing the ability to make phone calls when you install the iOS 8.0.1 update, which Apple removed, said after of more than one hour. Software failures have undermined the mantra that Apple products “just work” and, at least temporarily ruined what Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook described as “the best launch in history” for the latest models of iPhone Apple filed last week.

Apple apologized again and now released another update, iOS 8.0.2, saying that the previous version had affected less than 40,000 devices iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.

Trudy Muller, a spokeswoman for Apple, based in Cupertino, California, declined to comment on the quality assurance program of the company. Williams did not respond to a request for comment via email.

Quality Control
“Usually things like this are software–Updates a strength for Apple and something that is easier for them than for almost any other manufacturer devices or operating systems, because Apple has full control over the hardware and software, “said Frank Gillett, an analyst at Forrester Research Inc.

Williams leads the choreographed process that Apple uses to catch problems before they reach the public. Work at Apple since 2000 and graduated from San Jose State University, according to his LinkedIn profile. This Eagle Scout (the highest rank of the Boy Scouts), the company famous for their tattoos and playing the guitar, working in quality control for iPhone software since the early versions.

Williams has a team of over 100 people in the world who are responsible for thoroughly examine the software before it reaches the customers and find faults that may eventually affect them as a person. Apple hopes more people to discover problems in using automated testing technology, as former employees.

In a company the size of Apple, no one is solely responsible for large software problems, and Williams works with other managers to detect problems before launching a software. Apple has a board of directors to determine what failures need to be resolved, a committee called Bug Review Board, known internally as BRB. This committee is overseen by Vorrath Kim, vice president in charge of product management for iOS and Mac software. Depends Craig Federighi Ella, Apple senior vice president of software engineering.
