Today's Story Highlights

Amazon's DVR Scheme May Be Taking Shape
There's a rumor in circulation that Amazon has been working on a DVR
that would allow users to record live TV, and then stream that content
to a smartphone and other mobile devices. Amazon aims to mount a direct
challenge to DVR pioneer TiVo -- a company that was at the forefront of
digital video recording 20 years ago -- according to reports. The Amazon
DVR is codenamed "Frank."

Facebook Cracks Down on Iranian, Russian Influence Campaigns
Facebook has removed more than 650 Facebook and Instagram pages, groups
and accounts originating in Iran and Russia for "coordinated inauthentic
behavior." The goal is to improve the trustworthiness of Facebook
connections. Although it has been making progress in its efforts, the
people responsible for the inauthentic activity are determined and well
funded, Facebook said.

Quirky Linux: Pleasingly Peculiar
Quirky Linux is a classic example of what makes Linux such a varied and
useful operating system. Puppy Linux developer Barry Kauler earlier this
month released Quirky Xerus 64 version 8.6, which comes packed with the
latest innovations for doing Linux stuff differently. This latest in the
"Xerus" series is a must-try if you like to push your computing
experience envelope.

Microsoft Foils Russian Attack on GOP Think Tanks
Microsoft has torpedoed websites designed to steal credentials from
visitors to two Republican Party think tanks. The malicious websites
were among six the company took down last week. A group of hackers
affiliated with the Russian military created the sites, according to
Microsoft. It apparently was the same group that stole a cache of email
from the DNC during the 2016 presidential campaign.

5 Important Healthcare Cloud Security Factors to Weigh
The healthcare cloud has been growing incredibly, becoming an ever-more-
important element of health information technology, or HIT. There are
many reasons why the HIT cloud has been becoming more prominent, such as
research and development and collaboration. Since the cloud has been
expanding so rapidly, this may be a good time to reconsider security.
