Today's Story Highlights

The Smartest Tech Products of 2018
Picking a product of the year is anything but trivial because the
products I cover every week range from headphones to laptops to books,
cars and more. So, I thought I'd try something different this year and
pick six products that each deserve the title and then name a winner
that stands out from the rest. This allows me to simplify the task and
get around a bit of a writer's block I've been having on this subject.

It's Time to Take a Hard Look at Healthcare Cloud Security
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.

Breaking Up the Crypto-Criminal Bar Brawl
As if e-commerce companies didn't have enough problems with transacting
securely and defending against things like fraud, another avalanche of
security problems -- like cryptojacking, the act of illegally mining
cryptocurrency on your end servers -- has begun. We've also seen a rise
in digital credit card skimming attacks against popular e-commerce
software such as Magento.

4. 'DNA Printing' in the Cloud, Part 2
In DNA printing, genetic code becomes computer code. This occurs when
the chemical bases adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine present in a
chemical mix or gene sequence are translated by computer through gel
electrophoresis technology into their representative letters: A/T, T/A,
C/G, G/C. This alphabet code was formalized in 1970 by the International
Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.

2018: The Year of Fighting for Positive Change
When I think of corporate responsibility, one company tends to float to
the top, and that is Cisco. With massive efforts to train people all
over the world in the critical networking skills needed to secure and
expand global communications, Cisco has been taking a major chunk out of
joblessness. It has invested millions to reduce homelessness near its
headquarters, for example.

5 Ways to Make Your Website Gen-Z Friendlier
Generation Z is getting a lot of attention these days, as the cohort is
expected to outpace millennials, and comprise 32 percent of the world's
7.7 billion population. This powerful group of consumers was born into a
digital world. A much-reported claim is that Generation Z has an
attention span of 8 seconds. It may seem that your website should mirror
this lightning-quick attention span.
