Remote workers will soon have even less excuses to miss company catch-up calls due to hardware failure as Google Meet is coming to smart TVs. Google has launched a new update for its video conferencing service that allows Meet calls to be carried out on TV screens and monitors by using Google Chromecast. The update will allow calls to be cast onto enabled devices, but you'll still need a laptop or computer to host the call in the first place. How to use Google Meet - all you need to know Here's our list of the best online collaboration tools around We've built a list of the best business phone systems available Chromecast Google Meet Available to download now, the update also requires the latest version of Chrome on your computing device, as well as the most up-to-date version of Chromecast software. Once set up, users will see an option to cast the meeting before joining it. You can also switch during a Google Meet call by clicking on the three-dot icon and selecting "Cast this meeting." Google Meet has emerged as one of the biggest challengers in the video conferencing market as millions of workers around the world are forced to work from home. The platform has grown steadily over the past few months, with Google regularly updating and expanding the service to keep pace with competitors such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Following an announcement by the company in May, Google Meet is now free to anyone with a Gmail account, and now appears in Gmail windows to make starting a call easier than ever. Calls are technically limited to one hour, but Google is not set to start enforcing this until the end of September, meaning your meetings can last all day. The expanded tiled layout option now lets web users see up to 16 call participants at once, as opposed to just four. To share higher-quality video content with other callers, users can now choose to present a Chrome tab rather than just presenting their window or the entire screen.

Larian Studios dropped some info about Early Access for Baldur's Gate 3, which it is calling its "most ambitious RPG yet." From system requirements to the amount of content, players got a heads up on what to expect. Larian said it anticipates Baldur's Gate 3 will be in Early Access for at least one year, and says not to purchase the game just yet if you want a polished experience. As written on the Steam page, the studio notes: "While we did our best to remove the most annoying bugs and optimize the game as much as we could, there are still plenty of issues and it will take us time to fix them. Only buy the game now if you want an early look or if you want to participate in community feedback. Otherwise, you’re probably best off waiting until version 1.0 releases." Note: System requirements in screenshot below are subject to change. Act 1 is the primary content for Early Access, which features around 25 hours of self-contained content and will support six player classes with the amount of races/subraces to be determined. It will have five origin characters, which you can recruit but not play as for now. Larian said to expect new features to be added during Early Access in the ramp up to relase, including new classes and races. Larian reiterated, "Most of Baldur’s Gate 3’s advertised features are included though some are still work in progress." Currently, not every language is supported, due to the writers still developing the game. Acts 2 and 3 are very much a work in progress, so they will not be released until the official launch with 1.0. Larian says it sees the value in getting feedback and exploring game ideas with a live community, so Early Access seemed like a good fit for the game. Early Access opens on September 30. You can visit the Steam page here for all the details.

Coronavirus tests are to be carried out on more people in the government's monitoring programme to get a better idea of the spread of the virus. The Office for National Statistics' Infection Survey will test 150,000 people a fortnight in England by October, up from 28,000 now. The survey is separate from the mass testing programme of people with symptoms to diagnose cases. For the survey, a representative sample of the general po[CENSORED]tion is tested. That means it can provide estimates for the true spread of the virus. The diagnostic testing programme, which provides daily totals, largely relies on people with symptoms coming forward. Some people do not display symptoms when they are infected so the daily totals are an underestimate of the amount of infection that is around. As part of the expansion of the programme, data will also be gathered in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. Meanwhile, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said he wanted to see more rapid-turnaround testing for the public. Currently most tests that are taken have to be sent off to labs to be processed - and so people often wait a day for the results. But the government is assessing the accuracy and effectiveness of new types of tests that can deliver results on the spot. He said this was a "huge priority" for government as it could make it easier to reopen parts of the economy and perhaps reduce the restrictions around quarantining when you come from high-risk areas abroad. But he was unable to give a timeframe for that as the tests have not be proven to work yet. The ONS study helps us to understand whether rising numbers of people testing positive is down to more testing or more virus. It uses a small sample of people to inform the national picture, like tasting soup with a teaspoonful. At the moment, spotting just 10 infections a week, it takes a while before it can tell whether a rise is a spike or just a blip. A bigger spoon means it will spot the national and regional trends faster. That means we're less likely to be caught unawares if the virus comes back with a vengeance in the autumn. But it still won't see many infections in a town or small city, so won't become our main local outbreak detector. Speaking about the ONS survey expansion, he said the monitoring programme was currently the "single most important tool" the government had for making policy decisions around coronavirus because it helped it understand how the disease was spreading. Speaking on BBC Breakfast, Mr Hancock said expanding the ONS survey would allow the government to be "more accurate and more localised" in its response. He added that it would help the government with its "biggest challenge", which was finding people who were asymptomatic but could still pass the virus on. It tests thousands of people in households representative of the po[CENSORED]tion, whether or not they have coronavirus symptoms. The results help experts estimate the weekly reproduction (R) number and growth rate of the virus - which tells us if new coronavirus infections are rising or shrinking. The survey also provides important information about the socio-demographic characteristics of the people and households who have Covid-19. According to last week's results, coronavirus cases across England appear to be levelling off, with an estimated one in 1,900, or 28,300 people currently infected. Greater detail At the start of the pilot study, led by the ONS and the University of Oxford in partnership with the Department for Health and Social Care, around 20,000 households were invited to take part, with the aim of achieving data from around 10,000 households. Since the end of May, additional households have been invited to take part in the survey each week (roughly 5,000 a week), with an additional 15,000 households contacted in July. By beefing up the numbers participating, the ONS will be able to assess what is going on in much greater detail. Professor Sir Ian Diamond, the UK's National Statistician, said that the survey would be the biggest of its kind in this country. "Vigilance is key to containing this pandemic and the extra data on the spread of infections and antibodies at local level will be invaluable to the planning of effective local responses. Prof Sarah Walker, of Oxford University, who is a co-leader of the survey, added: "The added numbers will give us an awful lot of information about how this is all going to play out over the next six months. "The key question is 'can I get it again?' and because we are going back to households and because we will have enough people we can answer that question, not just overall, but by age, gender and ethnicity." The extended survey should be up and running by October when government experts are expecting there to be surges in infection. People who take part have routine nose or throat swabs to see if they currently have coronavirus. The survey currently has 60,000 people enrolled - not all of them are tested every fortnight. The aim is to increase this to 400,000 people across the entire project in England, and there will be proportionate increases in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

It's been a long time coming, but AMD has officially released its entry-level A520 chipset. Along with the launch comes a plethora of A520 motherboards that will absolutely steal your attention. Focusing on providing the best bang for your buck, the A520 chipset does check in without some key features that you may or may not miss. For starters, the chipset doesn't support CPU overclocking, which shouldn't be a huge deal breaker since Ryzen 3000-series (codename Matisse) processors don't have much manual overclocking headroom to start with. Furthermore, A520 motherboards are low-cost options for budget-constraint pockets so they often come with modest power delivery subsystems, which are sufficient for stock usage but not really adept for overclocking. Above all, the A520 chipset loses out on the most important feature that's innate to AMD's 500-series chipset - PCIe 4.0 support. PCIe 4.0 shouldn't matter for graphics cards since a PCIe 3.0 x16 interface is more than enough. Unfortunately, the lack of PCIe 4.0 on the A520 chipset means you will miss the experience of having a speedy PCIe 4.0 SSD. AMD A520 Chipset Specifications A320 A520 B550 X570 CPU Graphics Support x16 PCIe 3.0 x16 PCIe 3.0 x16 PCIe 4.0 x16 PCIe 4.0 CPU Storage Support PCIe 3.0 PCIe 3.0 PCIe 4.0 PCIe 4.0 CPU USB Ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 8 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Dual Graphics Support No No Yes Yes General Purpose Lanes PCIe 2.0 PCIe 3.0 PCIe 3.0 PCIe 4.0 CPU Chipset Uplink PCIe 3.0 PCIe 3.0 PCIe 3.0 PCIe 4.0 Overclocking Support No No Yes Yes In regards to processor compatibility, you may be disappointed to hear that the A520 chipset only supports Ryzen 3000-series processors and the recently announced Ryzen 4000-series (Renoir) APUs. Officially, there is zero retrospective compatibility with older AMD Ryzen processors, but as we've seen before, some motherboard vendors aren't always obedient with AMD's parameters. The good news, however, is that the A520 chipset will support AMD's upcoming Zen 3 processors (codename Vermeer), whether the chipmaker decides to label them as Ryzen 4000-series or Ryzen 5000-series. The A520 does bring one significant upgrade over the previous A320 chipset though. The general purpose lanes on the A520 chipset conform to the PCIe 3.0 standard as opposed to the sluggish PCIe 2.0 lanes on the A320 chipset. The A520 chipset lands with 26 usable PCIe 3.0 lanes when a Ryzen 3000-series processor is inhabiting the motherboard. The storage design allows for up to four SATA III ports. Connectivity-wise, the chipset can accommodate up to five USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two native USB 3.1 ports and six native USB 2.0 ports. The price expectations for A520 motherboards are pretty low since these motherboards are aimed at consumers with very tight budgets that only require the bare minimum. Amazon listings show Gigabyte A520 offerings going for as low as $69.99, but we expect to see even cheaper models.

"We love the Titanfall universe": How Respawn is bringing things full circle for Apex Legends season 6 Respawn is bringing out the big guns for Apex Legends season 6. A single big gun, in fact, called Sheila. She's the weapon of choice for the battle royale's new playable hero, Rampart, whose Ultimate Ability deploys a mannable turret (the aforementioned BFG) that can lay waste to entire teams, especially when paired with her Tactical Ability, an energy shield that boosts outgoing projectiles while protecting those behind it. It's easy to see Rampart becoming a new fan favourite in the Apex Games, especially with her dark sense of humour (brought to life by Anjali Bhimani, best known as Overwatch's Symettra) and interesting connections to the wider Titanfall universe. She's a British-Indian weapon modder with a reputation in The Outlands' underground gauntlet circuits, and entering the Apex Games with a personal endorsement from Kuben Blisk (a.k.a. Titanfall 2's main villain). Lead game designer Carlos Pineda explains how Respawn built Rampart as the latest new addition to the Apex Legends roster. "We start from what we call a gameplay fantasy," he tells me. "With each character we try to serve different play styles. So with Rampart, we wanted to acknowledge the type of player that likes to study the map and then try to predict where the enemies are going to come out and take advantage of that." "So that's where we usually start, and then the mechanics are built around, iterated on, and then tossed into a narrative and they go back and forth until we come up with a final character." As for why Blisk is returning to the spotlight for the first time since his appearance in the Apex Legends reveal trailer, Pineda remains coy about the team's ongoing story plans following Rampart's arrival to the games under his mentorship. "We love the Titanfall universe, so we are always excited to find ways to tie that stuff in when it makes sense. Blisk is the Commissioner of the games, so he's already part of that universe. It's nice to bring him back, and basically remind people that he exists!" The best defence… Rampart's combat style is likely going to shake up combat in a big way, but Pineda has some insider tips for squads who suddenly find themselves looking at the wrong end of Sheila's barrels, starting with the obvious: "Don't take her head-on." "With Sheila, Rampart will be hyper-focused on a single direction, because the minigun can't turn that well, so they're usually up against a wall. That makes it easier to come around the Rampart, and take them from the side. Alternatively, a good Wraith can set up a portal to flank, and grenades always work, right? The shield wall, in particular, two grenades will just blow it up." Beyond Rampart, another major new addition to Apex Legends season 6 is weapon crafting, an in-match system that allows players to build firearms from materials scavenged around the map (a newly revamped King's Canyon, complete with a rocket ship in the middle that's definitely not going to take off sometime in the near future). A crafting system might seem like an odd choice for a battle royale, which often tries to keep players out of the menu as much as possible, but Pineda explains that the idea stems from Respawn looking closely at user data, and accommodating the player types that are too often overlooked with each new update. "The team was starting to feel that players who enjoy a slower-paced, more exploratory Apex, weren't getting enough love," he says. "The best way to get a good kit is to go in, kill a bunch of dudes, and then you get their stuff and then you go fight a stronger squad, you get killed, then you get their stuff, and so on." "But for the guys who aren't always 100% ready to engage, you know, they just get left with whatever they find. So crafting is a way for those people to be able to fill in the gaps in their kits through exploration, through moving around the map and planning their rotations properly, letting them prepare for that final fight." A Netflix animated series of Apex? Sign me up! Chad Grenier, game director With a newly established studio now opened in Vancouver, one that's devoted entirely to supporting Apex Legends, it should be obvious to anyone that Respawn's battle royale is here to stay, and season 6 is just the next step of several for its ambitious roadmap, one which also includes upcoming ports to mobile, Nintendo Switch, and potentially even PS5 and Xbox Series X. Game director Chad Grenier remains curiously coy when asked about those platforms, but when I bring up the concept of an Apex Legends Netflix show, given the studio's eagerness to keep expanding the game's lore via new digital comics for season 6, the excitement is much more palpable. "Yeah, I would love to do that. That sounds awesome. A Netflix animated series of Apex? Sign me up! I think right now we're focused on making the game but heck, if someone wants to pitch me something I'll listen." Of course, if Apex Legends was ever adapted into a story outside of its own PvP firefights, the challenge of balancing the screen time between its ever-growing roster of characters would be no easy feat. Whatever it would look like, you'd imagine the holographic trickster Mirage, a fan favourite amongst the Apex community, would play a pretty big role. Grenier reveals his take on why the charismatic chameleon has taken on a life of his own outside of the Apex Games. "It's funny. Mirage is exactly modelled after one of our developers who has the exact same personality and even kind of looks a little like him... I mean, it's definitely him. We all love that person, so I'm not totally surprised the community loves Mirages too! It's a little bit funny to us though, because we all know this person in real life!" I guess it turns out that not all mirages are fake, after all.

New car sales in Northern Ireland surged by 17% in July, industry data suggests. July was the first full month of post-lockdown trading for car showrooms. Just under 4,400 new vehicles were registered in July compared to 3,800 in the same month last year, however, on a year-to-date basis sales are still down by more than 40% compared to last year. In the UK as a whole sales were up by 11% in July. Mike Hawes, chief executive of the Society for Motor Manufacturers and Traders, said the rise was "a reprieve for the sector", but the market remained fragile and could suffer from any future coronavirus lockdowns. "We must be cautious... there is still much uncertainty about the future. "The next few weeks will be crucial in showing whether or not we are on the road to recovery," he added. Ulster Bank economist Richard Ramsey said it had been the best July for car sales in Northern Ireland for more than 10 years. "This is the first month that there have been signs of some pent-up demand for new cars," he added.

A rapper who gave his girlfriend drugs at a music festival and filmed her as she died has had his conviction for manslaughter overturned. Ceon Broughton, 31, was jailed for eight-and-a-half years in 2019 over the death of Louella Fletcher-Michie, 24. The daughter of Holby City actor John Michie died after taking the hallucinogenic class A drug 2-CP at Bestival in Dorset in 2017. Three judges at the Court of Appeal ruled to overturn the conviction. Miss Fletcher-Michie was found dead in woodland, 400m from the festival's hospital tent in the early hours of 11 September 2017, the day she was due to turn 25. During Broughton's trial, the jury was shown video shot by the rapper - who used the stage name CeonRPG - in which Miss Fletcher-Michie became "disturbed, agitated, and then seriously ill". Broughton, of Enfield, north London, was found guilty of manslaughter by gross negligence and supplying a Class A drug at Winchester Crown Court in March last year. Delivering the Court of Appeal's ruling, Lord Chief Justice Lord Burnett said the expert evidence on the likelihood of Miss Fletcher-Michie's surviving if she had she received treatment sooner was "not capable of establishing causation to the criminal standard". He added: "In respectful disagreement with the judge, we conclude that the appellant's main argument, that the case should have been withdrawn from the jury, is established. "Taken at its highest, the evidence adduced by the prosecution was incapable of proving causation to the criminal standard of proof. "The appeal against conviction for manslaughter must be allowed." A statement issued by Broughton's lawyers after the conviction was quashed said: "The Court of Appeal has today found that Louella's death occurred not as a result of criminal negligence but was instead a tragic accident. "Ceon remains devastated by her death. "He has always wished that he could have done more to save her. "He loved Louella and she him, but he knows that no words will ever be sufficient to convey his sense of responsibility for what happened or to begin to remove the pain that others have been caused." The Court of Appeal ruled there should not be a retrial for the manslaughter conviction - which accounted for seven years of Broughton's sentence. His conviction for supplying his girlfriend with the class A drugs stands.

Several head figurines and other artifacts were found among different sites within the territory where the ancient Kingdom of Judah once stood. The Jerusalem PostSeveral head figurines dating back to the 9th century may have been meant to depict the ‘face of God.’ Sometimes archaeologists uncover the most shocking discoveries while examining ancient artifacts. For Yosef Garfinkel, head of the Institute of Archaeology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, what he found during an inspection of 3,000-year-old artifacts may have been the ‘face of God.’ But other archaeologists aren’t so sure about his claims. According to The Jerusalem Post, Garfinkel and his team studied several male figurines that were found dispersed among three different sites in the territory where the ancient Kingdom of Judah would have stood. According to Garfinkel, these sculptures represented a visible image of Y-H-W-H — read ‘Yahweh’ — the Tetragrammaton name of ‘God’ based on Jewish tradition. This finding would mean worshippers created depictions of God’s likeness on religious artifacts, otherwise known as idolatry, a practice forbidden in biblical scriptures such as the Torah. The publication of Garfinkel’s findings, which was the cover story of the August issue of Biblical Archaeology Review (BAR), has caused a stir among religious scholars in Israel, with many accusing the researcher of indulging in sensationalist news. The Jerusalem PostGarfinkel argues that the Hebrew Bible described God as a ‘rider,’ making the connection to this horse with an invisible rider. “When we uncovered the first figurine in Kirbhet Qeiyafa in 2010, there were no parallels to it,” said Garfinkel, who is co-director of the excavations at Kirbhet Qeiyafa. “Only two years later two similar heads were found in Tel Moza. When I saw how similar these three heads were, I started looking for more items, and I found two similar objects in the Moshe Dayan Collection at the Israel Museum.” The clay figurines had features that resembled eyes, ears, and a nose. Photos of the 9th-century artifacts do appear to bear facial features, though quite rough in their shapes. Garfinkel said the artifacts in Tel Moza were uncovered inside a temple, while in Kirbhet Qeiyafa they were found in an administrative building on top of the site, adding, “In both cases, we are not speaking about private but public spaces.” The figurine heads at Tel Moza were unearthed near horse figurines, while one of the artifacts from the museum’s collection depicted the head as riding a horse but with no body in between. Garfinkel noted that in the Hebrew Bible, God is sometimes described as a rider. He dismissed the idea that the figure could have been a depiction of a certain king instead since the idea of monarchy as divinity did not align with any known traditions in Judah. As such, Garfinkel claims the discovery suggests Israelis had been producing artifacts depicting God’s persona while under the rule of King David and King Solomon. ShutterstockThe clay heads were found at the Khirbet Qeiyafa excavation site. “Now the question is: Who is the god they represent? We are familiar with the Canaanite pantheon and all its different gods, and we have Canaanite figurines depicting them,” he said. “However, these figurines are completely different, so they don’t portray one of them. We know that in Judah there was a new god. If this is not the God of Judah, who could it be? This is my understanding of it.” He added: “If the people of Israel were not making statues, why would the biblical text be so concerned with the issue?” The practice of idolatry in ancient Israel was said to have been widespread until the First Temple was destroyed in 586 BCE Other experts have swiftly dismissed Garfinkel’s theories including the directors of the Tel Moza excavation, Oded Lipschits, who also heads the Sonia and Marco Nadler Institute of Archaeology at Tel Aviv University, and Shua Kisilevitz, an archaeologist with TAU and Israel Antiquities Authority. They responded to Garfinkel’s findings in an op-ed penned together alongside TAU’s Ido Koch and David S. Vanderhooft from Boston College. “Unfortunately, the article is riddled with factual inaccuracies in the presentation of the finds and a flawed methodological approach that disregards available evidence, the detailed publications of the Moẓa temple and its cultic artifacts, and the extensive scholarly literature on ancient coroplastic art on the one hand, and the study of religion in ancient Israel on the other,” read the response article. They also countered that the archaeologist’s bold conclusion “categorically disregards of all previous typological, technological, iconographic, and contextual discussion of the figurines from Moẓa and the rest of the region.” The response article is slated to be published in the next issue of BAR.

It looks like motherboard vendors will unleash their A520 offerings very soon. Amazon (via @momomo_us) has already listed four upcoming A520-based motherboards from Gigabyte. The Gigabyte A520M S2H arrives at the bottom of the A520 product stack with a price tag of $69.99. The microATX motherboard sports a 4+3-phased power delivery subsystem and two DDR4 memory slots. Storage options come down to four SATA III connectors and one M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 slot. Expansion-wise, the motherboard provides one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots. The rear panel of the Gigabyte A520M S2H holds one PS/2 combo port, two USB 2.0 ports, one D-Sub port, one DVI-D port, one HDMI port, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, one Gigabit Ethernet port, three 3.5mm audio jacks and a small button to clear the CMOS. At $74.99, the Gigabyte A520M DS3H is the next model on the hierarchy. The motherboard adheres to the microATX form factor, like the Gigabyte A520M S2H. However, it comes an improved power delivery subsystem that exhibits a 5+3-phase design. The motherboard is also equipped with four DDR4 memory slots. The storage and expansion options on the Gigabyte A520M DS3H are the same as the Gigabyte A520M S2H. In regards to the I/O ports, the Gigabyte A520M DS3H differs from the Gigabyte A520M S2H with the addition of a DisplayPort output instead of the D-Sub port and the lack of the CMOS button. The Gigabyte A520M Aorus Elite costs $89.99 and appears to be the spitting image of the Gigabyte A520M DS3H. The jazzed-up motherboard flaunts some Aorus branding, fancy heatsinks and limited RGB lighting. Other than that, the Gigabyte A520M Aorus Elite comes with identical specifications are the Gigabyte A520M DS3H. The only difference at the rear panel is that the Gigabyte A520M Aorus Elite doesn't have the DisplayPort output. For $99.99, the Gigabyte A520I AC is the most expensive and the only mini-ITX motherboard in Gigabyte's A520 arsenal. The little fella incorporates a 6-phase power delivery subsystem and two DDR4 memory slots. There's only one PCIe 3.0 x16 expansion slot, but you do receive four SATA III connectors and a M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 slot for storage. The Gigabyte A520I AC supplies one DisplayPort output, two HDMI ports, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, one Gigabit Ethernet port, the clear CMOS bottom and three 3.5mm audio jacks. As you would expect, the Gigabyte A520I AC has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. Out of the four motherboards, the Gigabyte A520M S2H and Gigabyte A520M DS3H are readily available for purchase.

“Off-the-shelf” ransomware attack software is becoming increasingly po[CENSORED]r and easy to use Small businesses are facing a growing number of ransomware threats as the programs needed to launch such attacks become more widespread. Called the “fast food franchise of cybercrime”, Ransomware-as-a-Service enables even low-level and inexperienced hackers to purchase a ready-made solution for attacking small and medium-sized businesses, according to cybersecurity firm Sophos. The firm named Dharma as one of the most po[CENSORED]r offerings around, saying it provides a “paint by numbers” solution that cybercriminals have already used to extort millions of dollars from businesses. Our roundup of the best cloud organization software for efficiency and security. The best Desktop as a Service solutions for a secure remote working environment. Get more done working from home with these top business accessories of 2020. In most cases, it’s the use of remote desktop software that serves as a point of ingress for hackers who then steal, encrypt, and hold for ransom files that are either critical to a company’s functioning or contain proprietary information that businesses are willing to pay for to keep private. The coronavirus pandemic left thousands of businesses scrambling to hastily implement remote working protocols, resulting in the widespread adoption of remote access software, but not necessarily the right practices for ensuring its secure use. As a result, the use of ransomware has skyrocketed in recent months, leaving many SMBs paying hand over fist to recover sensitive or mission-critical information. “Have fun, bro!” Businesses can thus greatly reduce the probability of having to pay out thousands of dollars to cybercriminals by enforcing strong password management and multi-factor authentication, setting up a business VPN, and providing simple but effective security training to employees at all levels. The Ransomware-as-a-Service model provides an off-the-shelf alternative for hackers and cybercriminals looking to wreak havoc, and greatly reduces the skill and knowledge required to attack businesses. As a result, Dharma and tools like it pose a major threat to SMBs: one need only purchase the software and gain access to a company’s network to launch an attack. Cybercriminals are then encouraged by Dharma to “Have fun, bro!” at the expense of business. However, there are a few simple measures companies can adopt to limit the risk of attack. According to a study by Coveware, a company that specializes in helping businesses successfully navigate and recover from ransomware attacks, 85% of such attacks are made possible by poor security around remote access.

Have you been enjoying petting foxes, chasing the wind, and coming up with cool ways to take on powerful encampments in Ghost of Tsushima? Maybe you're just watching bears drown bad guys. Ghost of Tsushima is getting a free cooperative multiplayer experience later this fall known as Ghost of Tsushima: Legends. It's an online experience that suits 2-4 players that can all play as unique character classes. Play as a Hunter, Ronin, Assassin, or Samurai. Offerings differ on the amount of friends (or random matchmaker players. Randoms are just friends you haven't met yet, right?) you can field.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has been heckled by workers on a visit to a factory as anger mounts over his disputed re-election. Workers chanted "leave" and booed the long-time leader of the ex-Soviet state as he insisted he would not allow a new vote after allegations of ballot fraud. Strike action spread to state TV, with staff walking out on Monday. Opposition candidate Svetlana Tikhanovskaya has suggested she could act as an interim leader. 'The people will not forgive this' 'Breathing freedom' - Belarusians hope for change 'If you croak we don't care': brutality in Belarus Country profile Police violence towards opposition supporters, as well as the alleged poll-rigging in the 9 August vote, fuelled a big protest rally in the capital Minsk on Sunday. Mr Lukashenko has led Belarus since 1994, maintaining close relations with neighbouring Russia, on which Belarus heavily relies for energy supplies. How great is the pressure on Lukashenko? According to local, independent news site Tut.by, Sunday's opposition rally in Minsk was "the largest in the history of independent Belarus". A wave of anger has been rising since the Central Election Commission said Mr Lukashenko had won 80.1% of the vote and Ms Tikhanovskaya - 10.12%. Some 6,700 people were arrested in the wake of the election, and many have spoken of torture at the hands of the security services. On a visit to the Minsk tractor plant on Monday, Mr Lukashenko sought to defend his disputed victory, telling workers: "We held the election. Until you kill me, there will be no other election." But as he spoke, workers booed him and chanted "leave". Last week, workers at state-run factories walked out in solidarity with the protesters, and more strikes are planned for this week, increasing the pressure on Mr Lukashenko, says the BBC's Kyiv correspondent, Jonah Fisher. At state TV, staff walked out in protest against censorship and the election results. Ms Tikhanovskaya, who left for Lithuania after publicly denouncing the results, insists that where votes were properly counted, she won support ranging from 60% to 70%. In a video message released on Monday, she said she was ready to become a "national leader" in order to restore calm and normality, freeing political prisoners and preparing for new elections. How did Sunday's rallies play out? Rival rallies were held in the capital, with the opposition event appearing to attract much higher numbers. An official report said 65,000 people had attended the presidential rally but unofficial estimates were as low as 10,000. Unofficial estimates for the opposition gathering ranged between 100,000 and 220,000. There were reports of state sector workers being forced to attend Mr Lukashenko's rally or face the threat of losing their jobs. What's happening in Belarus? Five things you may not know about the country Watch: Opposition leader speaks from exile As the president spoke, the anti-Lukashenko protesters gathered for a peaceful rally near a war memorial in the centre of Minsk. A number of officials, as well as current and former police officers, have resigned. The Belarusian ambassador to Slovakia, Igor Leshchenya, declared his solidarity with the protesters but told the BBC the government did not seem ready to hear them. What's happening internationally? EU leaders are to hold an emergency video summit on Wednesday. EU foreign ministers agreed last week to prepare new sanctions against Belarusian officials responsible for "violence, repression and the falsification of election results". The UK said on Monday it did not accept the results of the "fraudulent" election. "The world has watched with horror at the violence used by the Belarusian authorities to suppress the peaceful protests that followed this fraudulent presidential election," said Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab in a statement. "The UK does not accept the results." The US has condemned the election as "not free and fair". President Lukashenko has sought Russian help, saying President Vladimir Putin has promised to provide comprehensive assistance in the event of any external military threat. In a conversation on Sunday, the two men discussed "the situation in Belarus, taking into consideration the pressure the republic was being put under from outside", the Kremlin said. The view from Moscow By Vitaliy Shevchenko, BBC Monitoring Even though Vladimir Putin's relationship with Alexander Lukashenko has been through a rough patch recently, pro-Kremlin media have been supportive of the embattled president of Belarus. There has been criticism of the anti-government protests in Minsk. According to Russian state TV's Channel One, the demonstrations have been fuelled by "lies and disinformation", often originating in the West. Allegations of police brutality are either ignored or dismissed as fake news. It is the protesters themselves who are violent and unruly, Russian TV says. But according to independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta, there is a very good reason for Kremlin media to be so critical of the protesters in Belarus. "Our countries are too close culturally and mentally," it says. Should President Lukashenko be ousted, this would be seen by the Kremlin as "a terrible example" for Russians to follow. The outcome of this crisis is clear, says po[CENSORED]r Russian daily Moskovsky Komsomolets: "Lukashenko is doomed to go."
