Today's Story Highlights

Night Terrors Could Turn Your Home Into a Hellscape
Gamers could get the chance to count themselves among the things that go
bump in the night, if Novum Analytics' Night Terrors , an augmented
reality game for mobile devices, meets its Indiegogo funding target. The
story itself is rudimentary, but the gameplay takes place in relatively
uncharted territory. The player is alone in the dark with a smartphone.

Report: Top Endpoint Security Packages Perfectly Foil Drive-By Attacks
Drive-by attacks on the Internet are a particularly pernicious form of
online threat, especially for individual Web surfers. On the corporate
level, though, a company with good endpoint protection software can foil
the malicious practice. A drive-by occurs when an infected website
automatically downloads malware onto a Net traveler's computer. Endpoint
solutions can thwart those kinds of attacks.

Mumblehard Malware Mugs Linux Servers
A family of Linux malware targeting Linux and BSD servers has been
lurking around for five years. Dubbed "Linux/Mumblehard," the malware
contains a backdoor and a spamming daemon, both written in Perl. The
components are mainly Perl scripts encrypted and packed inside an
executable and linkable format, or ELF, said Eset. In some cases, one
ELF executable with a packer nests inside another.

Facebook Responds to Critics by Unlocking Internet.org
Net neutrality and Facebook's Internet.org initiative can and must
coexist, insists CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook on Monday announced that
it will expand Internet.org to ensure that it doesn't conflict with the
principles of a free and open Internet. CEO Mark Zuckerberg responded to
criticisms of Internet.org and outlined plans to make the free service
even more open.

Adobe Adds Dazzle to Lightroom
Adobe's recently launched new version of Lightroom for its Creative
Cloud Photography platform improves performance of the photo manager and
adds new HDR, panorama and facial recognition features. Lightroom's
mobile support also is bolstered in the latest version of the program.
Further, it has new capabilities for creating slideshows from stills and
video.

FOSSers Puzzle Over Significance of Open Source .Net Core
Microsoft last week released a preview of the next version of its .Net
Core runtime distribution, fulfilling last fall's pledge to open source
.Net and take it cross-platform for Mac and Linux. "Windows 10 is and
will be a standard .Net platform, and improving the interoperability of
.Net builds bridges from those platforms to Windows 10," said Black Duck
Software's Bill Weinberg.

Holy Crap: Microsoft Is Building Tomorrowland!
One of the movies I'm really looking forward to this month is Disney's
Tomorrowland . My first real job was at Disneyland, and I was so in love
with the place I often would come back and work a second shift for free.
Epcot, the city of tomorrow, was supposed to be Walt's final legacy but
his untimely death ended that vision. That city of tomorrow never came
to be.
