James O'Sullivan, CEO & Founder, Nuke from OrbitTheft of a smartphone used to be about the value of the device. Now it is about the value of the data on the device. What is needed is a simple 'kill switch' solution to protect your data and accounts, a FinTech security platform designed to mitigate the impact of security breaches. Founded in 2023, Nuke From Orbit is currently operating in beta but aims to enable a user to block access to multiple services and accounts simultaneously, avoiding account compromise issues and monetary loss when their smartphone gets stolen. James O'Sullivan of Nuke from Orbit speaks to Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence. 

In this episode of the Industrial IoT Spotlight podcast, Erik Walenza of IoT ONE hosts Mike McCamon from the NFC Forum to explore the future of NFC technology.

Anyway, I'd like you to meet Alissa Bartlett, who is a leader in dealing with all things marketing and a lot of different ways. And you're going to learn about that in the course of the day. So listen, thanks for joining us on unstoppable mindset.   Alissa Bartlett  01:58 Friday. Michael, thank you so much for having me. It's an honor to be here.   Michael Hingson  02:01 Well, it's our honor to have you. Why don't we start a little bit by you discussing kind of your life a little bit where you came from you growing up and all the usual sorts of things so that people can get to know you a little better.   Alissa Bartlett  02:14 Sure. So I grew up in Oakland, California, I have to say go warriors, because my parents are rooting very hard for the basketball team today.   Michael Hingson  02:27 day could be the day   Alissa Bartlett  02:28 today could be the day today, hopefully will be the day. So I grew up in Oakland, spent most of my time growing up between Oakland and Berkeley. Little bit ventured to San Francisco, but not too much. That's considered you know, the other side of the bay. So there's kind of a divide there. I went to a university down in San Diego at the University of California, San Diego, where I majored in psychology and human development. I graduated from UCSD in 2004. And I got an amazing job working for a nonprofit called the Center for Creative Leadership. They are a leadership development firm specializing in leadership development, training and coaching. And they also do a ton of research and, and publications around leadership. It was a great place to start my career, I learned a ton and got exposed to a lot of wonderful content and mentors. And that was really great. After being there for two years, I took on a role as a consultant. And I was doing supply chain and logistics consulting for fortnight. And my main client at the time was proflowers.com. And that was a really good gig. I had some other clients including fox racing, Burlington Coat Factory, as well as all clad which was really fun, we actually got to see how they the process that they go through to clad the metals together and create their pots and their pans and everything like that. So that was really fun. I was traveling all over the country for three years with that job, then decided I wanted to get off the road. So took on a role working for a small marketing research firm called Market lab. Market lab was an entirely remote position. So I went from being on the road every week to working from home. And that was of course working from home back before it was the cool thing to do as it is today. So I was doing project management and then I was managing a team of project managers. And then I was managing the whole operation of the company. And then finally I was doing sales and business development and and project direction for the company. So that was great for 10 years and then I decided that working From Home was just too hard on me being the extrovert that I am. And so I wanted to get back to a job where I was going into an office. So I found a company called improving. And they're a technology management and consulting firm. And they have an office here in Minnesota in Bloomington. So the commute was about 45 minutes for me from Stillwater, but I didn't really mind because I really liked the job, and I loved the company. And I was in a sales role. And so after three months being at improving, and starting to feel like I was getting the hang of the sales role, the pandemic hit. And so all of a sudden, I could no longer meet with people in person, we couldn't hold our in person events that we would do for marketing, I had to be working from home again, rather than going into an office. And it got really hard to do my job. So I struggled through another year or two of that, and got to the point where it, it was just really hard to do a sales job for a company that I was so new to and an industry that I was so new to. And then an opportunity came along for me to do some contract work with a former client of mine. So I mentioned that I had worked at proflowers. And my client, there was a man named Curtis McConnell. And he   Alissa Bartlett  06:27 had had gone out on his own and started a company called authentic by art. They're an art technology firm. And what that means is that they have a platform that that is used to manage art. It's kind of like Zillow, but for the art world used to manage art as assets. And you can have a profile of your artist and all their artwork and have upload documents that are all the supporting documents to prove the authenticity of the artwork. And they have a number of other supporting products around that that primary platform, including ID tags for art. So these are RFID tags, utilizing Near Field Communication, or NFC technology, as well as using UHF or ultra high frequency technology. So these tags can be used for tracking artwork, also for doing inventory on on a collection of art. And also for providing enhanced digital experiences to go with viewing a physical work of art. We also have an IoT tracker that tracks the environmental conditions around a work of art, including temperature, humidity, light, gyration, air quality, air pressure, and things like that. So it's kind of like a Fitbit for RT. And we can use that data to generate alerts that get triggered when something is above or below a certain threshold. So if it's getting above 90 degrees, you can have an alert get kicked off that says, hey, there may be a fire. Or if it's getting above 90% humidity, you're gonna have an alert that kicks off that says, you know, that says, hey, there may be a flood or a burst pipe here. And so these are all things that the insurance companies really care about when they're insuring the paintings because these are all things that will compromise the quality and the value of the work of art.   Michael Hingson  08:38 So what is it that you do relating to that?   Alissa Bartlett  08:42 I'm in? Yeah, I'm, I'm serving as the Director of Product quality. So what that means is I'm responsible for the quality of the products, including the tags and the art tracker, and as as well as the platform itself.   Michael Hingson  09:02 So I'm curious, you went to UCSD. I was up the road at UC Irvine, although before you. So how did you get from there? And Oakland, California to Minnesota? Oh,   Alissa Bartlett  09:16 that's a really good question. So, um, during the time that I worked for market lab, where I was working from home, I was fortunate enough to have three children. So we had one, we had one kid in 2012. And then in 2015, we became pregnant with twins. And so we ended up with three kids and we were living in a two bedroom one bath, California bungalow that we were renting. And so looking around at you know what there was available for us to buy the housing market in the Bay Area is just so bonkers that we really didn't feel like we could afford the space that we need it. Meanwhile, my husband grew up in Minnesota, and we would come to visit His family out here. And I always loved coming out to visit. And so on our last trip, we, you know, I just said to him, I think we should consider moving back to Minnesota. And he said, Well, what do you mean back? You've never lived there. And I said, well, but you know, you live there. And that's like, basically the same thing. And I think we should consider moving there. And he was pretty resistant to the idea. You know, he was like, I made it out of California. Why would I want to go back to Minnesota? I mean, I mean, I made it out to California. And I said, Well, why don't you just look at what we can afford and get back to me. So he looked at houses online. So we were in California at the time. And he looked at houses online. And the third house he looked at was just our perfect dream home. It was the type of house we always talked about wanting, you know, the layout, the location of it, everything was just perfect. And so I found a realtor and I said, Hey, I want to buy this house. And the realtor said, Great. And my inlaws came and did a tour, and they did like a FaceTime tour of it. So we could see the house on FaceTime. And they said it looked good. We trust their judgment. And so we made an offer on the house, and it was accepted. And we moved in, and the whole process took less than two months. Wow.   Michael Hingson  11:25 Yeah. And probably a whole lot more affordable in terms of price.   Alissa Bartlett  11:30 per square foot, it was about 1/8 of the price of what a home in Cal, California would   Michael Hingson  11:36 have cost. Yeah. which counts for a lot. Needless to say, yeah. So   Alissa Bartlett  11:40 we basically got three times the space that we had for a third of the price.   Michael Hingson  11:44 And you're happy back in Minnesota with all the cold weather and the snow and all that.   Alissa Bartlett  11:49 Yeah, I love it having grown up. Not really having seasons. I do like the seasons and the changing of the seasons, it makes me feel like I live in a completely different place every three months. So I think that's really fun. And right now we've got gorgeous, whether it's in the 70s. Or maybe it's up to the 80s. Now, you know, beautiful green and lush and you know, water everywhere. And you know, it's not it's not the California desert. But we're getting close to California temperatures now. And it's really nice.   Michael Hingson  12:25 Yeah, but this too shall pass   Alissa Bartlett  12:27 it Sure well, and it'll get cold again. But the snow can be fun, too. We like to we like to ski and do other kinds of outdoor activities in the snow like sledding and building snowman and having snowball fights.   Michael Hingson  12:40 There you go. Well, you have along the way become sort of active in the whole concept of diversity, equity and inclusion. How did that happen?   Alissa Bartlett  12:51 So I'm growing up in Oakland and Berkeley, I was always exposed to a pretty diverse group of people. So my best friend from elementary school is black. My best friend from high school is Asian. And I just was always surrounded by people with different backgrounds. For me, I was raised Jewish. But I was surrounded by people of all different religious backgrounds and people with you know, no religious affiliation whatsoever. And I was always just surrounded by diversity. And so I never really thought much about it. Until, let's see, it was about 2017 When we were attending a Unitarian Universalist Church, and we were exposed to the work of Robyn D'Angelo and her work around white fragility. And she was talking about progressives, who will look at a situation and say, Oh, but I'm not a racist. So, you know, we don't need to talk talk about this, and kind of shutting down the conversation. And I realized that that's something that I had been doing. And then I was exposed through a gentleman that I met on Facebook, in in one of these sort of progressive groups, Facebook groups. I met Marshawn saddar. And he said to me, you know, I asked him if he considered himself a progressive, and he said, I don't think that that's really very well defined. I am an anti racist. And I said, Tell me more about being an anti racist. And he said, Well, it's not just enough to say I'm not racist, you have to stand for something and be specifically anti racist. And so that really inspired me to take a more active role in specifically being anti racist. Not just I am not racist. So I started attending events that were put on by organizations that are in the In the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion activism space, so there's an organization that's newer to Minnesota, called the Center for economic inclusion. And I was actually at the kickoff for their organization, the kickoff event, which was really interesting here in Minnesota. And there's some other organizations that I've been exposed to through the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, that are, you know, doing this kinds of kind of dei activism work.   Michael Hingson  15:33 How is any of that translated being prejudiced about this kind of subject? How is that translated for you in terms of ever dealing with disabilities, because typically, in the diversity world, disabilities are left out, we talk about differences, we talk about race, we talk about gender, and, and other kinds of things. But when it comes to dealing with disabilities, those of us who are involved in that tend not to be included, which really tends to be a problem. So how does how do we deal with that?   Alissa Bartlett  16:05 That's a really good question. And I think that part of it is that oftentimes with a disability, you can't see it. So sometimes you can, right. So you can see race and ethnicity, you can see gender, there are some disabilities that you can see, you know, when we're talking about kind of physical disabilities and limitations, but there are a lot of disabilities that you can't see whether it's a mental disability or chronic pain, or, you know, other types of disabilities. And so I think when you can't see it, it gets harder to measure. And it gets harder to take into account. But there's some, some Well, I mean, I think that your organization, for example, is a really good, really good example of a company that does cater to inclusion around all different types of disabilities and making websites accessible to people with with many different types of disabilities, including disabilities that you can't necessarily see.   Michael Hingson  17:12 Well, yeah, that's true that we deal with a number of disabilities, which may not be visible. But even taking into account the visible disabilities, I have, for example, attended meetings on diversity. And I've actually been asked to speak at meetings on diversity. The problem is that when the conversations are occurring, and they're discussing diversity, and such things, disabilities are still left out. And so we can, we can get granular and talk about specific disabilities, but it really doesn't matter. We are still as a class of people, not included in the conversation pretty much. And that tends to be the problem, the unemployment rate among most persons with disabilities. And I'll deal with physical disabilities, whether it be people in wheelchairs, people who happen to be deaf, people who happen to be blind, the unemployment rate is close to 70%. And it's not that we can't do the work, it's that we're not given the opportunity because people think we can't. And in the whole diversity movement, we get left out. And that's sort of the the frustrating part. How do we get the movement to truly be inclusive? Because you can't be inclusive? If you're going to leave segments of the of the group out?   Alissa Bartlett  18:38 Well, I think you said the key word there, which is inclusion. So it's not just about diversity, which tends to be more associated with skin color, and gender and the sort of visible things that you can see. It's about making yourself and your organization be inclusive of all. And that's why when I was the VP of volunteer engagement for AMA, Minnesota, that's American Marketing Association, non American Medical Association, American Marketing Association, Minnesota chapter, we were doing our strategic plan for 2020. And we were focusing on in being more inclusive, and we've been we purposefully use the word inclusion rather than the word diversity, because it is more broad in its definition. And so how do I personally handle it? So it's not just enough to say I treat everyone the same regardless of their abilities or disabilities or skin color or gender. But what I actually do is I seek out people who are different from me, whether it's different skin color, different age, different under different religious background, different culture or career, or different abled Enos able bodied gnus, I seek out people who are different from me. And I cultivate those relationships and I get to know them and learn about, you know, who they are and where they're from, and their background, and you know, that sort of thing. And so I maintain a very inclusive group of friends and colleagues and acquaintances,   Michael Hingson  20:34 and you actually said something that sort of verifies something that I have thought, which is diversity, in the way I put it has been warped not to include disabilities, you're right, it generally includes or involves people of different races, different genders, and sexual orientations and so on. But it doesn't include disabilities. And the fact is, it should, because we're still talking about differences, but it doesn't. And that's what really gets to be part of the issue. And so I'm seeing a lot of people who talk about inclusive today and inclusion today, but they're not because they're still doing the same thing, it still comes down to not including persons with disabilities. And the reality is if unless we change the language, and I sure hope we don't, inclusion and inclusiveness means inclusion, and you can't leave people out. But the problem is that as a society, we still haven't gotten to the point where we accept persons with so called disabilities as equals. And disability is is an unfortunate term, but it's the best there is we can't, I don't I don't know another term to use differently abled is horrible, which a lot of people have tried to use, but we're not differently abled, we're just as able in the ways that we always have been, we do it differently. But so do a lot of people. Sharp people do things differently than do tall people. But it doesn't make them different or less equal. So it is a it is a challenge. And somehow, we really need to change the conversation to truly be more inclusive right from the outset. And that's the the thing that I think is still lacking a great deal.   22:30 I agree with you. And I think that that's the importance of podcasts like this one where you're talking to a lot of different types of people about these concepts. And alissa   Michael Hingson  22:30 We do talk to all sorts of people, even if they like the Warriors, as opposed to the Lakers, but it's okay. Oh, sports is fun. But but you know, it and I asked the question, because I was curious to, to get your responses. And they they really do sort of validate the thoughts that I and then others have had. And it is also important for people like you who are out in the world and dealing with a lot of these things to find ways to broaden people's eyes about inclusion and diversity. And hopefully that will happen. Well, you said, you've been doing work with the American Marketing Association left to learn more about that.   Alissa Bartlett  23:37 Yeah. So I'm ama Minnesota, has been around for about 40 years. And when the George Floyd murder took place in May of 2020, there was a big uprising here, you know, that was sort of Minnesota was sort of ground zero for this swell of activity. And we among the AMA board, were talking about this a lot. And what we recognized was that if you look at our chapter, it doesn't necessarily reflect the makeup of our profession as a whole. Most of the people who are involved with our chapter are white. And most of the people who are involved with our chapter are women. So we were mostly attracting white women to our events. Interestingly enough, the panelists at our events were mostly white men, despite the fact that our membership was mostly white women. Our panelists were most still mostly white men. And I think that's just a holdover from from previous eras where white men were seen as the sources of information and knowledge. So we recognize that we had a problem Not we weren't reflecting the larger community of marketers that are in Minnesota. And we had some data around that. And, you know, it's it's a much more diverse population than what we had. We had some diversity in terms of industry and experience level and education and that sort of thing, which was great, but we didn't have a good level of diversity when it came to skin color. And we didn't have a good level of, you know, a reflective mix when it came to gender of our panelists and our speakers. So we started paying attention to that. And we started partnering with other organizations in the Twin Cities that could bring, you know, get us in front of a different audience. For example, there's an organization called Black bloggers and creatives of Minnesota. And we partnered with them to put on events and invite their membership and our membership and sort of do some cross mingling there. We also took a look at our panelists and made a specific effort to make the panelists be more diverse. And of course, here again, I'm using that word, diversity. And I'm using that on purpose because we were definitely focused on what the panel's looks like. Because that's one way to do, it's not the only way to do diversity and inclusion. But that's one way to do it. So I'll give you an example. We have a signature event that we do every year, and we call it ad bowl. So we do this event the day after the Super Bowl, and it's all about the ads that were shown in the in the Super Bowl that year. So in 2019, the ad bowl panel was made up of three white men, and one woman woman of color. It was a great panel, I learned a lot, it was fun and funny, but it was definitely skewed. And so in 20, in 2021, when we did add bowl, we were very conscientious to pull in panelists who looked different from each other. And so that year, we had two white males, one white female, and two women of color who were, who were female, obviously, being women. And so we had a much more diverse panel, and the conversation was richer and brought in more different perspectives on the ads. And of course, that year, diversity and inclusion was a really big part of the Superbowl ads given the groundswell of activity through the Black Lives Matter movement. So it was great to have a panel that was really reflective of experts in this field, and people who have lived experiences that are related to the that content. So I was really proud of the work we did around that   Michael Hingson  28:04 was at Bull virtual and 2021. It was   Alissa Bartlett  28:11 so so it's actually been virtual, we haven't yet done an in person one. So my expectation is that next year, it will go back to in person, which is really fun. But the being virtual, we actually use it to our advantage because we were able to get some panelists that didn't live in Minnesota, they're thereby diversifying the panelists even more so. Well,   Michael Hingson  28:36 hopefully in the future. They'll add people with disabilities, you know, what the if depending on who you listen to, whether it be the CDC or other places, the population of persons with disabilities in the United States is anywhere between 21 and 25%. So it's a pretty substantial group. And hopefully, they will also get more involved in the whole marketing world. And that might be a fun thing to add to the mix.   Alissa Bartlett  29:07 I think that's a really excellent point, Michael, I'll have to take it back to them.   Michael Hingson  29:11 I think it'd be a fun thing to explore what happens at the ad bowl?   Alissa Bartlett  29:17 The panelists all present, which which one of their ads, which one of the ads was their favorite? Okay, so we get to watch the ad, and then we talk about it and why was it their favorite? We then do the ads that the ad that they liked the least. And we talked about how it might have missed, missed the mark. And then we talked about any other ads, ads or campaigns that were, you know, significant or stood out in a specific way.   Michael Hingson  29:44 We don't discuss the puppy bowl or the Kitten Bowl.   Alissa Bartlett  29:48 No, I mean, the only way that would come up is if it was tied to some brand was running.   Michael Hingson  29:55 Oh, I understand. That's that's another whole story. Yeah. Well, I think you've talked about this a little bit. But you, you mentioned it as one of the things you wanted to talk about how do you practice diversity and inclusion in your daily life? I think you've touched on that some already.   Alissa Bartlett  30:15 Yeah, I touched on that a little bit. And that is that I really purposefully seek out people who are different from me. And so that's one way that I do it. I have three sons, three boys, and I talk to them about people who are different from them, you know, differently abled, or who look different or who, you know, we I tried to incorporate, at a very basic level, I tried to incorporate toys and activities that are typically meant for girls, and I'm using air quotes here when I say girls, but my kids are really into My Little Pony, for example, which is something that's, I think, typically targeted towards girls. We do a lot of arts and crafts in our house. So I expose them to things that are geared at a more diverse population. And the another thing that I do is I seek out authors that are that are like a diverse set of authors and content creators. When it comes to things like books, and podcasts and articles, just really seeking out sources of information that have a different background from me.   Michael Hingson  31:37 Well, I'm glad that you really do focus on looking at things that are different than you and people who are different than you and that you give your children exposure to that at an early age. If we start that earlier, then they'll grow up thinking about that more than if we don't do it at all. Indeed. And that's kind of important to do. Yeah. So who inspires you?   Alissa Bartlett  32:03 So I smile when you're asked that question, because the person who inspired that question to begin with is a dear friend of mine named Robbia, Koon. And Robbia works and lives in London. When I met her, we were both living in San Diego, we had both gone to UCSD. And then she worked for proflowers, who, as I mentioned, was a client of mine. Robbia has made her way out to London. And she has she works full time. But she also has a wonderful podcast called more than work. And who inspires you right now is one of the questions that she always asks her guests. And I just love it as a question. And so when you asked me for questions, Michael, I was like, you should ask me this one. So Robin inspires me because not only does she work full time, actually in a marketing role, as well as, but she also does this podcast, and she does stand up comedy. And, and to me, those three things are kind of three full time jobs in themselves. And she does all of them. And oh, by the way, she does it with a chronic medical condition. So she's doing all this, along with this chronic condition, which, if you want to learn more about that you should go check her out at more than work pod.com where she will talk a little more about that. But she inspires me right now, another dear friend of mine, who inspires me is Rashida Mahane, and Rashida. I met Rashida through LinkedIn through some mutual LinkedIn connections. And Rashida has a startup in the financial services sector. And my former company improving was running a competition for startups. And so I didn't know Rashida very well, but I knew that she was the CEO of a startup. And so I messaged her one day and I said, Hey, you should apply for this pitch competition that we're doing. And she got back to me immediately and said, Absolutely, I will. And I said, and hey, you know, I don't know that much about you or what you're doing. But I would love to see your pitch, if you would just do it for me. I'm not one of the judges, but I'd love to see it. So we arranged a time for her to do her pitch for me. And it was incredible. And we hit it off right away. And what her what her app is. It's an app that was originally she had it geared towards millennial millennial women. And it's a financial management app to help people not only to improve their financial situation, but also to improve their relationship with money and their behaviors associated with money. So her business sits at the intersection of financial play anything, and psychology. And I just thought that that was a really interesting way to approach it. And one of the pieces of feedback that Rashida got from the code launch people code launch was the name of the competition that she had applied for. One of the pieces of feedback she got was that her her product was not specific enough with who she was targeting, because millennial women are a very large group. And it just didn't feel tailored enough to one population. And so she and I had a lot of conversations around this. And I said, Well, why don't you tailor it towards African American, millennial women? And she said, Well, I don't really know that there's a market for that. I don't know, I think that she was just nervous about doing that. And she thought that that would make her market too small. And she said, I'm just going to design it for any millennial woman, and, you know, hope that African American women get interested in it. And I said, Well, I think you're going about this backwards, I think that you should be designing it specifically for African American women. And other people will be interested in it as well. And I said, design, the app that you needed three years ago, when you had hit rock bottom design, what you needed, then, as a single mother, you know, raising her her daughter, and dealing with financial issues and work issues and all of this stuff, design the app that you needed. And she was like, You're absolutely right. And that really set her off on this course, to develop an app specifically for women of color. And   Alissa Bartlett  36:53 she's really taken off, she's won a bunch more competitions. She applied to code launch again, the next time it ran and got accepted into the program, and got part of her app developed for her for free. And she's just been kicking ass and taking names. And I'm so proud of her. And she's a huge inspiration to me.   Michael Hingson  37:13 That's pretty exciting. It's It's interesting when you can really have an impact on someone and their attitudes and what they do, I think that it's important that we try to broaden people's horizons. And I say it that way, because you broaden her horizons by getting her to focus in on a specific group of people. And I wonder if what you also said is true, which is that others outside of millennial African American women have gotten interested in her app.   Alissa Bartlett  37:49 Yeah, they have. And, you know, one of the things that we talked about, as I said, you know, it's so often that systems in our country are designed for the majority, the, not the majority of the, yeah, the majority group, right. So if that, let's say that, it's, you know, the education system, which is primarily designed for white children, and then the minority groups just have to adapt. And I said, you know, don't black women deserve to have their own financial planning app that's designed specifically for them? I think they deserve that. And, you know, it's not a ton of differences. I'm not saying that African American women are that much different from white women. But there are some there, there are differences there. You know, they're they're dealing with different challenges and different hurdles, and they really deserve to have something that's designed specifically for them. And the thing is, you can't, you know, paint everyone in the same group with the same brushstroke. And there will be other people who are not necessarily an African American woman, but maybe they are a single mom. And, you know, maybe this app would be helpful to them, too. And it will attract other people and other demographic groups, but to really make it for an African American woman.   Michael Hingson  39:15 Well, it's, it's, it's also unfortunate that we have to spend so much time recognizing that everyone is different, rather than recognizing that there's so many similarities in all of us and create products and apps that address all of our issues inside one app. But that is the way the world works today.   Alissa Bartlett  39:39 No, things are very specialized. That things are getting very niche. And that's one of the things that we talk about a lot in marketing, is that you really have to get really granular and targeted with your marketing. And sometimes it'll be like a multi pronged approach where you're going after multiple segments of the population, but a lot of times, you're going to segment out the population on something, you know, whether it's race or gender or household income, or there's far more complicated, attitudinal segmentations that we I used to do at market lab. And you're going to pick one, one population to target because your product is going to appeal mostly to one specific segment of the population. And that's who you want to target with your advertising and stuff like that.   Michael Hingson  40:29 Even though other markets may very well be able to use the product.   Alissa Bartlett  40:33 Yep. But those are secondary. Yeah. Oh, I   Michael Hingson  40:36 understand. They're They're definitely secondary. But the hope is, I would think that they will come along and recognize that maybe this is good for them, too. Absolutely. Yeah, it's just, but you have to start somewhere. And I recognize the value of marketing to a particular group. And seeing how that goes. And maybe over time, we will recognize that, although we have a lot of different groups of people, we, we don't look enough at the fact that we're a lot more alike than we like to think we are. But right now we treat everything in as granular and as different. And that's probably what we have to do, because otherwise we'll leave out so many different people. If that makes sense.   Alissa Bartlett  41:28 Yeah, totally.   Michael Hingson  41:30 So you, since you, since you brought it up and said that I asked you questions. Tell me about the conscious capitalism market or philosophy guide you. And tell me a little bit more about Conscious Capitalism, philosophy.   Alissa Bartlett  41:47 Yeah, I love talking about Conscious Capitalism. Conscious Capitalism is a philosophy that I was exposed to when I was working for improving conscious capitalism is a philosophy and approach to doing business that has four tenants. So the first tenant has higher purpose and saying an organization has to have a higher purpose beyond just making money. Of course, the organization has to be financially solvent. But that can't be an organization's only purpose. The second tenant is a stakeholder orientation. And that is a stakeholder orientation, as opposed to a shareholder orientation. So it's looking at all of your stakeholders, which for sure include your your shareholders, but it also includes your customers, your employees, your vendors, your distributors, your suppliers. It can include your community, it could include the environment, and it can include all these things. And you can make business decisions based on any one of those subgroups of stakeholders, and have that be a viable business decision, as opposed to making all your decisions, just thinking about your shareholders. The third tenant is conscious leadership. And what that is saying is that you are consciously leading the charge within your community, to a more conscious way of doing business. And then the last time it is conscious culture and management, which is saying that, you know, every company has a culture, whether you intend it to have it or not. And so you ought to be intentional about the culture of your company, make it fit with your employees, and also with what you do in the world, to make it be a really great place to work. And so I think about the concepts of conscious capitalism, you can really apply it to any business. And you can even apply it to something like your household.   Michael Hingson  43:52 And I really describe to a large degree, the concept of the entrepreneurial spirit.   Alissa Bartlett  44:02 I think the entrepreneurial spirit is woven in there. But conscious capitalism is something that can be taken on by any sized company at any stage in their, in their trajectory. Some good examples of conscience of companies that embody this philosophy. So Whole Foods is one of them. And in fact, the gentleman who wrote the book is John Mackey, who is the original founder of Whole Foods, and he wrote this book called Conscious Capitalism. Southwest is another really conscientious company that, you know, really thinks about not just their shareholders, but their customers and their employees. Same kind of course, I'm blanking on on all my other conscious capital. I mean, improving my former company is a conscious conscious capitalism company where they say, Yeah, we we want to make money that's that's a given. We do Need to make money but they also do all sorts of things that are not necessarily making them money seeing things that even cost them money, for example, improving hosts, local interest groups, at their, at their offices to do things like monthly meetings of maybe, you know, the, like, quality assurance Professionals Association, or tech masters which is like Toastmasters, but for technology, and they don't just provide the space for people to come and convene, but they actually feed people. So they do pizza in the evenings or, you know, coffee and, and doughnuts in the mornings. And so they put money into the community. Because the those people are stakeholders to the company,   Michael Hingson  45:56 right. And that's kind of why I thought of the whole concept of entrepreneurialism, because it really fits very well with that whole concept. If if somebody truly has that spirit, it's a lot more than just a product, it's a lot more than making money. It is all about trying to work toward a higher purpose of what effect you're going to have and what you do with the company what you do to affect the world.   Alissa Bartlett  46:25 I agree, I think it's a really great way to grow to start a company and grow a company around around a really solid philosophy. And so from that standpoint, I agree that it that it is that it does really embody the entrepreneurial spirit.   Michael Hingson  46:40 Yeah, we, we oftentimes lose that spirit is we are an accompany and it grows and becomes more successful, we get to focus so much on making money doing things for our shareholders. And I've been lectured to by many people on many occasions about how well our overall arching goal is to just do things for our shareholders. Really, I think that people lose a lot of the perspective when they take that position that made them what they were in the first place. So conscious capitalism idea is certainly a significant part of that.   Alissa Bartlett  47:25 Yeah, exactly. So the co author of the book conscious capitalism is a professor named Raj Sisodia. And he does research on companies. And he has hidden and the he's he's done research, which shows that companies that embrace the conscious capitalism philosophy actually do better financially than companies that don't.   Michael Hingson  47:52 So and there you go. It, it proves the point.   Alissa Bartlett  47:58 Yeah. It's not just a feel good philosophy. It's actually a sound business strategy.   Michael Hingson  48:03 And that really is I think, the most important part of the whole concept is that by definition, the proof is that it it not only is a sound business philosophy, it makes for more successful businesses. Absolutely. And oftentimes, people in dealing with business, find that they do better when they recognize that there's more to life than just making an extra dollar.   Alissa Bartlett  48:32 Yeah, that's true.   Michael Hingson  48:34 Well, this has been fun. And I really have enjoyed having you on and I look forward to I'm going to have to go see if I can find the, the the book and read it. And can you give us the name of that again, in the author's   Alissa Bartlett  48:50 conscious capitalism by John Mackey and Raj Sisodia.   Michael Hingson  48:54 There you go. We're gonna have to go find that. Well, this has been absolutely a lot of fun. As I said, if people want to reach out to you and make contact with you, or learn more about what you do, how can they do that?   49:07 The best way to do it is to find me on LinkedIn. I'm Alissa Bartlett. And, yeah, just find me on LinkedIn, connect with me message me. And you know, that's how you and I connected my phone. And it is definitely a great platform.   Michael Hingson  49:22 Oh, LinkedIn offers a lot. And it's been fun to be able to connect with you and to connect with other people. And as I love to say, if I'm not learning from these podcasts, and I'm not doing my job, right, when I travel and speak, I always feel that if I'm not learning more than I get a chance to impart then I'm not doing it right, somewhere along the line, because I think that it's important that we all learn and grow.   Alissa Bartlett  49:46 Yeah, absolutely.   49:48 Well, thank you again, for being here and for being with us and a part of this. I hope that people will reach out and will read the book. I think it sounds like it is something that We should all take to heart.

It's Tuesday May 17th, 2022, and this is a look at the information security news from overnight. From BleepingComputer.com:Apple has released security updates to address a zero-day vulnerability that threat actors can exploit in attacks targeting Macs and Apple Watches. The flaw is an out-of-bounds write issue in the AppleAVD, the kernel extension for audio and video decoding. Apple says it is likely this has already been exploited in the wild. From Infosecurity-magazine.com:US manufacturer Parker-Hannifin has announced a data breach exposing employees' PII after being the target of a Conti ransomware attack. The company said that an unauthorized third party gained access to its IT systems between 11 and 14 of March this year. On the plus side, if you‘re information was involved, you just got two free years of identity theft monitoring. From BleepingComputer.com:Security researchers at the NCC Group have developed a tool to carry out a Bluetooth Low Energy relay attack that bypasses all existing protections to authenticate on target devices. What target devices, you ask? Teslas. Details in the article. From ZDNet.com:The FBI put out a warning that someone is scraping credit card data from the checkout pages of US businesses' websites. The bad actor is injecting malicious PHP Hypertext Preprocessor code into the business' online checkout page and sending the scraped data to a server that spoofed a legitimate card processing server. They also left a backdoor into the victims system. And last today, from ThreatPost.comBecause of how Apple implements standalone wireless features such as Bluetooth, Near Field Communication and Ultra-wideband technologies, researchers have found that iPhones are vulnerable to malware loading attacks even when the device is turned off. The root cause of the issue is how iPhones implement low power mode for wireless chips. No comment yet from Apple, but there is a link to the research report in the article. That's all for me today. Remember to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE. And as always, until next time, be safe out there.

This past April, Preeti Ohri Khemani was elected chair of the NFC Forum. On this episode, Preeti delves into the possible use cases for NFC, or Near Field Communication, that go beyond the well-know tap-to-pay and provides an overview of the current standards climate around this technology.

Imagine if you could wave your phone across a hoodie and instantly get information about where the cotton was sourced, how much the workers were paid, what the carbon impact of your purchase would be, specific to that individual product and delivered straight to your palm. That's the world EON is building, and it's going to be here sooner than you think. Natasha Franck, CEO and founder of EON Group, is pioneering technology that uses Near Field Communication to deliver information directly to the consumers about the products their buying and unlock a treasure chest of insights in how consumers interact with their stuff. They are powering the technology that can accelerate circular business models, resale channels, authentication, and, the ability to build integrity into fashion industry. Recently EON announced a $10 million series A round, providing the fuel to carry Natasha's vision into the future. But, for the better part of a decade, she had just the vision to keep her going, well before the dollar showed up. Tune in to hear about the transformative potential of the technology, the impact it could have on sustainable manufacturing, and the people who made it happen.

Hello everyone welcome to the show "Ethical Hacking" episode 87 today we are going to discuss about We just spent a lot of time talking about wireless networks, but there are other wireless networks out there besides Wi-Fi.These include things like Bluetooth,RFID, Near Field Communication, cellular,GPS, and satellite communications.Previously, we've talked about some vulnerabilities with Bluetooth.I want to remind you of two big terms when it comes to Bluetooth.This is bluejacking and bluesnarfing.I'm covering these again because I guarantee you're going to get at least one question on test day about either bluejacking or bluesnarfing really loves to ask that for some reason.Bluejacking is the sending of unsolicited messages to Bluetooth-enabled devices such as mobile phones and tablets.Bluesnarfing, on the other hand,is the unauthorized access of information from a wireless device through a Bluetooth connection.So, to simplify this for the I want you to remember this.Bluejacking sends information to a device where Bluesnarfing takes information from a device.If you remember those two things,you'll do great on the exam.Also, when it comes to Bluetooth,remember you don't want to allow your device to use the default PIN for its pairing operations You should always change the PIN to something more secure than 1234 or 0000.Next, we have Radio Frequency Identification or RFID.RFID devices have an embedded radio frequency signal that's used to transmit identifying information about the device or the token to a reader that's trying to pick it up.RFID refers to a large category of devices and technologies,but, for the exam, the specifics of RFID are not that important.Instead, you need to focus on the fact that RFID devices can send information from a card to a reader to provide authentication or identification.For example, one of the most common devices that we use RFID for is a card that looks like a credit card,and can be used as part of your alarm system or door access system.So, with these cards, you can swipe your card over the reader, and it identifies you and allows you to enter the building.Because there are so many different types of RFID devices, RFID can operatein either very close environments or very far environments.It can be as close as 10 centimeters from the reader or as high as 200 meters from the reader depending on the particular device and technology in use.Because of that large distance,RFID is subject to eavesdropping,the ability to capture, replay, and rebroadcast its radio frequency as part of a larger attack.To minimize the ability to eavesdrop on RFID, an idea called Near Field Communication was invented.Near Field Communication or NFC allows two devices to transmits information when they're in close proximity to each other.This occurs using an automated pairing process and transmission process of that data.For example, some cellphones have the ability where you can touch the cellphones together to pass photographs back and forth.Other uses of NFC are common place in payment systems.For example, I have an iPhone,and I can hold it over a credit card terminal to pay with my credit card that's linked through Apple Pay.This is an example of a Near Field Communication device.Just like RFID, we do have to worry about the possibility of interception of that wireless information though because it could be replayed and rebroadcast Now, luckily for us, NFC does require the devices to be very close for the communication to work.

Ander Rivas explica qué es y para que sirve la tecnología Near Field Communication NFC... La vemos cada día en mas dispositivos y, en lo que se refiere a teléfonos celulares, aparentemente los fabricantes han decidido que no puede faltar en ninguno de sus modelos. Para saber que es Near Field Communication, Ander Rivas (Presidente de TotalSoftware y CAVEDATOS, Director en CiTICven) ofrece una breve pero completa explicación, que va desde sus origenes hasta los más frecuentes usos que son sugeridos para NFC en la actualidad. - - - Duración = 00:15:48. - - - Descubra otros detalles sobre NFC en los artículos • Llegó NFC (http://tecnologiahechapalabra.com/datos/soluciones/implementacion/articulo.asp?i=7417). • NFC (http://tecnologiahechapalabra.com/tecnologia/glosario_tecnico/articulo.asp?i=6197). - - - - Encuentre más archivos de audio y video sobre tecnologia en el archivo multimedia de TecnologiaHechaPalabra.com (http://tecnologiahechapalabra.com/archivo/?i=2).

Your phone has this cool technology that you probably never realized it had. Near-Field Communication or NFC for short is how you use Apple Pay, how your credit cards are tap to pay, and how some airlines scan you in. These two guys, Nick Eischens and Jason Alvarez-Cohen took an idea from a party in Hollywood Hills and have built a multi-million dollar company with it. Listen to find out how Popl is making the business card obsolete.

Why would you want Near Field Communication, or more commonly known as NFC, technology in soccer balls, hand bags, and COVID testing kits?After this conversation with Avery Dennison’s Head of NFC business, Amir Khoshniyati, you’ll be asking ‘Why not?’. To name a few uses that Amir mentions, the unique ID that NFC provides can enable authenticity, consumer engagement and loyalty, and supply chain visibility. Avery Dennison, who recently acquired Smartrac, are a company whose products are used in almost every industry. These include ‘pressure-sensitive materials for labels and graphic applications; tapes and other bonding solutions for industrial, medical, and retail applications; tags, labels and embellishments for apparel; and radio frequency identification (RFID) solutions serving retail apparel and other markets.’ NFC technology falls under the RFID umbrella, of which they are the world’s largest provider. Tune in this week to learn about the use cases NFC are enabling today, uniquely in COVID times, and the upcoming opportunities in the IoT landscape.

Part 1 of a mini series of episodes made in collaboration with Edwin Gallego and Pedram Baniasadi where we discuss about Blue, a business card that uses Near Field Communication technology (NFC) and bluetooth to make connections with the people around you. It's a card that you can use to tap on other people's phone that shows all your social media profiles that you want to show up and even your Spotify account and PayPal in case someone wants to pay you. It keeps track of the people you walked passed by and the people that you actively made connections with. Also, it uses beacon technology which is tremendously important in the future for businesses to provide special offers to customers who are subscribed to their products/services. Among other things, this is a business that can be truly groundbreaking in the future.

Virginia und Claudia warten sehnsüchtig darauf, dass sie endlich Apple Pay ausprobieren können (im April, hoffentlich!). In dieser Folge von Frauen und Technik sprechen sie trotzdem über Near-Field Communication (damit laufen Apple- und Google Pay), über Bezahlapps und über: Bargeld. Hilft ja nichts.

Schnell und sicher - So geht mobiles Bezahlen per Smartphone bei den Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken: Berlin (ots) - Anmoderationsvorschlag: Die Zeiten, in denen man beim Einkaufen an der Kasse mühevoll das Kleingeld aus dem Portemonnaie kramen musste, gehen langsam aber sicher zu Ende. Schon jetzt bezahlen immer mehr Menschen kontaktlos mit Karte und nun sogar direkt mit ihrem Smartphone. Helke Michael verrät Ihnen, warum das die Bezahltechnik der Zukunft ist. Sprecherin: Schon jetzt kann man mit seinem Smartphone an weit über 550.000 Terminals in Sekundenschnelle seine Rechnung bezahlen. Dazu Matthias Hönisch, Experte für mobiles Bezahlen beim Bundesverband der Deutschen Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken. O-Ton 1 (Matthias Hönisch, 31 Sek.): "Grundsätzlich gilt: Überall dort im Handel, wo man auch heute kontaktlos mit der Karte bezahlen kann. Möglich wird das an Kartenterminals mit sogenannter Kontaktlos-Technik, Stichwort ist hier NFC, Near Field Communication. Ob kontaktlos Bezahlen in einem Geschäft möglich ist, erkennen Sie übrigens immer ganz einfach an dem Funkwellen-Symbol am Bezahlterminal. Davon gibt es für girocard in Deutschland übrigens schon weit über 550.000 Geräte - und das sind schon zwei Drittel aller Terminals in Deutschland. Und die Zahl wird weiter steigen." Sprecherin: Schon frühzeitig haben die Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken die neue Bezahltechnik getestet und bieten sie ab sofort ihren Kunden bundesweit an. O-Ton 2 (Matthias Hönisch, 31 Sek.): "Wir sind tatsächlich die Ersten in Deutschland, die ihr gesamtes Bankkartenportfolio - dazu zählen girocard, die Visa- und die Mastercard - für das Bezahlen per Smartphone digital den Kunden zur Verfügung gestellt haben. Die drei Kartenarten können unsere Kunden innerhalb ihrer VR-Banking-App als digitale Karten bestellen und so in wenigen Sekunden in ihr Smartphone integrieren. Voraussetzungen, um damit dann mobil bezahlen zu können, sind: Sie brauchen ein Android-Smartphone und ein Online-Konto mit einem TAN-Verfahren bei uns." Sprecherin: Weitere Voraussetzung ist: Sie müssen die NFC-Antenne in Ihrem Smartphone aktivieren, damit die Kommunikation mit dem Bezahlterminal funktioniert. O-Ton 3 (Matthias Hönisch, 18 Sek.): "Kleiner Tipp hier noch: Wenn Sie darüber hinaus zusätzlich in der VR-Banking-App die Funktion 'ExpressZahlung' aktivieren, wird die digitale Karte als Standardkarte zum Bezahlen voreingestellt und Sie müssen dann nur noch das Display Ihres Smartphones aktivieren. Die App selber kann dann geschlossen bleiben - und das ist schon ziemlich bequem." Sprecherin: Und sicher ist das mobile Bezahlen mit dem Smartphone auch: O-Ton 4 (Matthias Hönisch, 12 Sek.): "Ihre persönlichen Daten sind natürlich geschützt. Bei den digitalen Karten kommen die gleichen hohen Sicherheitsstandards zum Einsatz wie bei Ihrer girocard, Visa- und Mastercard mit Kontaktlos-Funktion aus Plastik."

Die neue Art zu zahlen - Kontaktlos per Funk mit Karte: Berlin (ots) - Anmoderationsvorschlag: Über 100 Millionen girocards, früher auch mal ec-Karte genannt, sind hierzulande im Umlauf. Mit denen kann man schnell und einfach am Automaten Geld abheben oder natürlich seine Einkäufe im Supermarkt bezahlen. Dank neuester Technik inzwischen sogar noch bequemer und schneller - nämlich kontaktlos per Funk. Helke Michael hat sich mal schlau gemacht, wie das genau funktioniert, wie sicher das ist und was uns da in Zukunft noch so erwartet. Sprecherin: Jahrelang haben wir beim Einkaufen mit Bargeld oder mit Karte bezahlt. Und letzteres geht inzwischen sogar auch kontaktlos, erklärt Dr. Andreas Martin vom Bundesverband der Deutschen Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken. O-Ton 1 (Dr. Andreas Martin, 0:17 Min.): "Kontaktloses Bezahlen heißt, dass man die Karte nicht mehr in das Terminal einsteckt, sondern dass die Karte eine Funkverbindung aufnimmt mit dem Terminal, eine sogenannte 'Near Field Communication'. Das ist eine sichere Verbindung, mit der die notwendigen Daten übertragen werden, damit die Zahlung abgewickelt werden kann." Sprecherin: Vorteile dabei sind: Die Karte muss nicht mehr aus der Hand gegeben werden und man hat schneller seine Rechnung bezahlt als man gucken kann. O-Ton 2 (Dr. Andreas Martin, 0:08 Min.): "Davon profitiert der Einzelhändler, der Kassierer, aber auch der Kunde. Und Sie brauchen bei Beträgen bis 25 Euro keine PIN einzugeben. Sprecherin: Ob Ihre Karte bereits für das "Kontaktlose Bezahlen" mit der dafür nötigen unsichtbaren Funkantenne ausgestattet ist, erkennen Sie übrigens mit einem Blick: O-Ton 3 (Dr. Andreas Martin, 0:30 Min.): "Denn dann trägt sie ein Funkwellen-Symbol. Die Volksbanken/Raiffeisenbanken haben bereits 4,5 Millionen solcher Karten ausgegeben - und 'Kontaktloses Bezahlen' ist genauso sicher wie das Einstecken der Karte in das Terminal. Hier werden nur solche Daten übertragen, die zur Ausführung der Transaktion erforderlich sind, also beispielsweise nicht Name oder Adresse des Karteninhabers. Und es können auch nur solche Terminals mit der Karte kommunizieren, die von der Kreditwirtschaft zugelassen sind." Sprecherin: Bis sich die neue Art zu bezahlen überall durchgesetzt hat, wird es noch eine Weile dauern. Wer will, kann in Zukunft natürlich aber auch weiter bar bezahlen. O-Ton 4 (Dr. Andreas Martin, 0:19 Min.): "Wir werden auch weiterhin Bargeld haben, aber Zahlungsgewohnheiten werden sich verändern. Wir werden auch noch neue Zahlungsinstrumente sehen, beispielsweise die 'girocard mobile', die ins Smartphone des Kunden wandert. Und am Schluss ist es auch gut so, glaube ich, dass der Kunde einfach auswählen kann: Will er mit Bargeld bezahlen, mit Karte oder künftig per Smartphone." Abmoderationsvorschlag: Weitere Infos zum kontaktlosen Bezahlen per Funk mit Karte und über das Pilotprojekt der Deutschen Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken mit der 'girocard mobile', das zurzeit in Kassel läuft, gibt's im Internet unter www.bvr.de.

A few weeks ago I received a question from a listener about the differences between NFC (aka Near Field Communication) and Bluetooth. Read full transcript here: http://bit.ly/2cv1XPg

Xiaohua: Hello and welcome to Roundtable’s Word of the Week. This week we are gonna talk about some words and phrases that are related to Apple’s new product release. John: Yeah. That’s right. So they recently released or at least announced the release are the creation of iPhone 6, 6 plus and the Apple Watch. We're gonna take a look at some of the words and phrases that were used in the product announcements. So the first one we wanna take a look at is NFC, or Near Field Communication Xiaohua: 中文是：近距离无线通讯技术,也叫近场通讯。 John: Right. So NFC is basically just a standard for 2 electronic devices, a smart phone, a watch and anything else really, to be able to communicate, but only over very short distances. Xiaohua: 简单来说就是在,近的距离之间，在两种电子设备间进行的电子s通信。 John: Yeah. And the thing is about NFC again, there is a big difference that and RFID, which has been used in other types of technologies. No.1. RFID usually works over longer distances whereas NFC is only centimeters. And also interestingly enough, RFID only really allows for one way communication. So from a smart phone device to a payment platform, whereas this way, both the smart phone and the payment platform or the payment hardware can actually communicate directly with each other. So it’s two-way communication. Xiaohua: RFID, 又叫做Radio Frequency Identification. 中文是应用无线射频技术。RFID和NFC的区别一是，RFID可以允许更远距离的传输; 另外一点就是RFID之能允许单向传输，而NFC是双向的。 John: Exactly, one of the other words that was used, kind of related to NFC actually in the product announcement, was Contactless Payment. Contactless Payment is basically just using NFC or Near Field Communication to make payments. Xiaohua: Contactless Payment, 免接触支付 John: And also again, a lot of these have to do with, not just the iPhone because they did introduce the Contactless Payment, also for the Apple Watch. And what is interesting about the Apple Watch is that, normally when you charging an electronic device, these days its usually with a mini USB so you plug it in to a computer, or an adapter and plug that into the device. Whereas what you will notice on the Apple Watch, there is nowhere to plug anything in. So how is it going to be charged? It was going to be charged through inductive charging. Xiaohua:说到Apple的另外那款Apple Watch的新产品，就要提到无线充电，inductive charging. John: It’s basically wireless charging. This technology has been around for years, but it sees very few consumer applications. Mostly because the cost does not justify the actual production, but what we see with a device as small as the Apple Watch, inductive charging just makes so much sense. All you have to do is put it on to a specially designed plate, leave it there for a minute to a couple hours and it will be fully charged. Xiaohua: 无线充电或者感应充电的技术其实已经存在好几年了，但是像Apple Watch这样的轻巧的装置使用无线充电技术就是非常便捷的了。 John: And one of the last words we are going to look at today. This is actually a word has been around for quite a while, but it’s come up again with the release of the iPhone 6 Plus. Remember, there is the iPhone 6 which is bigger, 4.7 inches, iPhone 6 Plus which even bigger, about 5.5. So Apple has moved to the round of the phablet. Xiaohua: 最后一个要提到的词就是phablet，这个词可能大家都很熟悉，就是平板手机。Apple 也开始赶phablet的潮流，出大屏的平板手机了。 John: While it is a bit of a created word, phablets, in general, usually have screens that measure between 5.01 to 6.9 inches, about 130 to 180mm. That’s, of course, diagonally. All screens whether we're talking about, TVs, computers, tablets, watches even, now is measured diagonally. And we can see that with 5.5 inches, iPhone 6 Plus is firmly now in the phablet category. Xiaohua: Phablet是用来称呼5英寸到6.9英寸屏幕的这种触屏移动设备的。这里的英寸是测量了对角线的距离的。 所以5.5英寸的iPhone 6 Plus 也就是一个标准的平板手机了。And that’s all we have for Roundtable’s Word of the Week.

Security and the Internet of (Every)Thing. How are data and communications going to be protected as CPUs and Near Field Communication chips become less expensive and are embedded in to the Internet of (Every)Thing? What are some of the leading edge indicators and social trends that will drive the need? securitycurrent's Vic Wheatman speaks with Mocana CEO James Isaacs and John Aisien, Senior Vice President Marketing and Corporate Development while at the RSA security conference.

John Kivit is van Shareforce, een bedrijf dat gespecialiseerd is in mobiele apps en web applicaties. Op The Next Web besprak Erwin Blom met hem de stand van zaken op het gebied van mobiel internet. "De huidige wereld van mobiel internet voelt als de beginjaren van internet. Het is nog een ontwikkelende markt waar de paaltjes nog niet zijn gezet van wie dominant gaat worden." "Daarnaast bouwen we allemaal apps maar weten we nog niet goed hoe we ze moeten laten scoren. We denken dat we er zijn als een app in appstore staat, maar dan begint het pas. Dat hebben we op het web ook gezien, eerste bouwden we daar websites waar niemand kwam. Met apps hebben we hetzelfde probleem. Er is heel veel te winnen in bijvoorbeeld appstore optimalisation. De marketing op dit terrein moet ook nog op gang komen." "Er is bij klanten nog weinig kennis over mobiel internet. Ze willen een app, maar weten niet goed waarom. Omdat anderen er ook een hebben. Maar verder wordt er niet goed over nagedacht. Wij weigeren klussen waarvan we denken dat ze niet goed komen. Als ik onsuccesvolle apps bouw, komen klanten ook niet terug. Ik zit hier voor de lange termijn in." "Er is ook nog veel onduidelijkheid over prijzen. Ik heb klanten die vertellen dat ze voorstellen tussen 1500 en 50.000 euro hebben gehad. Ga daar als klant maar eens uit kiezen." "80% van de traffic gaat online op de mobiel naar apps, 80% van de verzoeken die wij binnen krijgen gaan om apps. De helft iPhone, de andere helft Android. Responsive websites zijn wel een trend, dus dat je een gewone site bouwt die ook op een mobiel goed werkt. Maar dan mis je wel functies. Native apps kunnen nog altijd meer." "Ook als het over verdienen gaat, blijft de mobiel achter. Ook dat was in het begin van het web zo. We hadden eerst traffic, maar de adverteerders volgden later. Ook al was het met minder geld dan de krant of tv. De mobiel loopt achter." "Ik zit te wachten tot Near Field Communication mainstream wordt zodat je daar mee kan betalen. Net als mobiel adverteren nog niet volwassen is, geldt dat voor mobiel betalen. Apple heeft de zaken goed op orde doordat ze de betaalgegevens van mensen hebben. De Appstore van Apple doet dan ook vier keer zoveel omzet als de Google Play Store."

Near field communication technology represents a dramatic change approaching the world of retail and mobile. When one incorporates, like Google did with their Wallet, NFC into a mobile device you are allowing consumers to open a communication channel that is virtually frictionless to POS and countless of other systems. Can software giants like Microsoft, Apple and Google own this space with their hardware? And create another ecosystem of payments that threatens the typical payment providers? Or will the likes of AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon band together with their ISIS competitor to create a whole new monetization method for the Telecos. Craig and Sean dive into these questions and discuss the breadth of technology world on another episode of Obsessive Disruption.

Scott and Anders talk Google Wallet, Near Field Communication, GetAround.com and the Mac Defender "virus" in this week's rewind. Android marketshare seems to have leveled off according to a recent Nielsen blog post and the world of drones show unbelievable commercial promise. And on amnesia lane, Scott and Anders take on the 1990 movie "The Hunt for Red October".

In this 2nd episode, we're talking about whether you need a logo or not when you start a business. Plus, what are the attributes for doing business in the 21st Century? Also, Near Field Communication - what is it, and is it the next big thing? For information on all of your hosts and their own day jobs, then check out http://www.richardheathcote.co.uk/smallbizlive

Gastheer Maarten Hendrikx, @maartenhendrikx op Twitter. Panel Stefaan Lesage, @stefaanlesage op Twitter, of via de Devia website. Marco Frissen, @mfrissen op Twitter, of via zijn website. Jan Seurinck, @janseurinck op Twitter, of via zijn website. Davy Buntinx, @dirtyjos op Twitter, of via zijn website. Onderwerpen Ping en Twitter gaan samen in zee. Je Ping-activiteit wordt nu dus automagisch gedeeld op Twitter. Wat Apple dus met Facebook niet voor elkaar kreeg, lukt hen dus nu wel met Twitter. Wat denkt het panel (en vooral Davy als meest hevige Ping-gebruiker) van de integratie? En we hebben het uiteraard ook even over het feit dat The Beatles nu ook in iTunes beschikbaar zijn. It's been a hard days night! (GigaOm) Facebook stelt een volledig nieuwe versie van hun messaging systeem voor. Het is email, maar ook weer niet. (Facebook blog) Android krijgt binnenkort 'Near Field Communication'. Klinkt erg futuristisch en het panel ziet al meteen interessante toepassingen. (VentureBeat) Jan vindt als laatste 'groot topic' de previews die Google Search nu toont bij de zoekresultaten best handig. Het panel ontdekt dat er geen filter op die previews zitten en dat wordt meteen getest met een aantal pikante zoekopdrachten. (Google blog) Er was ook heel wat 'kort nieuws', maar daarvoor met je luisteren... Tips Stefaan gaat de technische toer op met yUML. Hij was op zoek naar een simpele manier om een aantal UML-diagrammen te maken, vooral  'class' en 'use case' diagrammen. Pakketten voor zo'n soort dingen kosten echter toch serieus wat geld. yUML to the rescue! Marco heeft het over de Smurfen-applicatie voor de iPad. Farmville met Smurfen. Als tweede tip wil Marco het nog een keertje hebben over Posterous voor de iPhone. Er is een nieuwe versie en die is nog beter dan de eerste versie. Houzze.com is de tip van Davy. Een website waarop je foto's van je interieur kan plaatsen. Interessant voor de liefhebbers van programma's als bv. Huizenjacht. Je kan filteren op kamer, stijl of locatie. Handig om ideeën op te doen. Jan neemt als tip Buzzmachine.com, de blog van Jeff Jarvis. Zijn tweede tip is Boxee, volgens Jan de TV van morgen. Tot slot heeft Maarten het over YoungGTD. Getting Things Done op kindermaat. Feedback Het Tech45-team apprecieert alle feedback die ingestuurd wordt. Heb je dus opmerkingen, reacties of suggesties, laat dan een commentaar hieronder achter.

Xonio 214 meldet sich zurück im neuen Jahr. Zunächst sammle ich mal ein paar Überbleibsel aus meinem Weihnachtsurlaub: drei neue Podcasts, die ich abonniert habe und meine Rezension des Twitter-Buchs von Nicole Simon und Nikolaus Bernhardt. Am meisten beschäftigt hat mich allerdings das Google-Handy, dessen Vor- und Nachteile ich im Podcast ausführlich darlege - von der Nutzerführung über Apps aus dem Android Market bis zu den Schwächen bei Kamera und Akkulaufzeit. Außerdem spreche ich mit unserem Test- und Technik-Chef Wolfgang über Handy-Trends 2009. Dabei geht es um Datendienste wie HSPA+, um Near Field Communication, Akku-Trends und natürlich um neue Handys. Nächste Woche stelle ich im Podcast unter anderem das Nokia 5800 XpressMusic vor, die neue Nummer zwei unserer Handy-Bestenliste. Und hier sind die Shownotes zur 20. Ausgabe von Xonio 214: Ein paar neue Podcasts: - The Monocle Weekly, Herausgeber Tyler Brulé über Business, Kultur, Design - Outside The Cinema: Trash- Horror- und Genre-Filme - Film Junk Und ein Buch: - Rezension Twitter-Buch T-Mobile G1 - Test: T-Mobile G1 (Android Dev Phone 1) - G1-Software im Test Handy-Trends 2009 - Die Trends des Technik-Experten - Hero, Topaz und Co.: 16 HTC-Handys für 2009 Neues vom iPhone - iPhone 3G: Unlock - So geht´s in 15 Minuten (uba)
