Ransomware is a form of malware that gains access to your system and then locks you out of your computer until you pay a ‘ransom’ to gain back control. Ransomware can creep into your system or network through a malicious file or software and then encrypt the data on your devices until you make a payment to access the decryption key. Ransomware is quite frequent, which is why big organisations invest a lot of money in cybersecurity. In this article, we show you how you can prevent a ransomware attack and what to do in case you are hit by a ransomware attack.Read Also: JellyCar Worlds makes its Apple Arcade debut

How to prevent a ransomware attack
There are some measures you can take in advance to reduce the possibility of a ransomware attack. While big organisations are able to fund state-of-the-art cybersecurity, individuals and small business owners don’t usually go that route. Here are some steps you can take to prevent a ransomware attack.
Maintain regular backups
Since ransomware attacks the data on your device, you can easily nullify any leverage the attackers may have by maintaining regular backups of your data. Make sure you back up your data on another device or network. The frequency of data backups should depend on the rate at which you collect data. If you own a business, daily data backups are highly advised. As an individual user, you can schedule a weekly data backup for your system. With an updated backup of your data, you don’t have to pay if your system gets attacked by ransomware.
Practice basic cyber awareness
You’d be surprised how easily malware can creep into your computer. Always make sure you don’t click any suspicious links or download files from unverified sources on the Internet. Apart from that, you should also avoid plugging unknown USBs into your computer. Avoid using public WiFi networks, and if you have no other choice, use a trusted VPN. If you own an organisation, make sure all your employees are briefed on basic cyber awareness.
Use strong passwords and two-factor authorisation
Sometimes hackers use crafty tools to guess the password of your system. Make sure you use strong passwords for every system on your network. Routinely changing the passwords also bumps up security. Using two-factor authorisation also adds an extra layer of security to your system.
Use an anti-virus software
It is better to pay for premium anti-virus software than pay to get rid of ransomware. Good anti-virus software will routinely check your system for potential malware and will scan every file or software you download from the internet before installing it in the system.
Keep software and applications updated
Routinely check for software updates. Most security issues are patched with forthcoming updates, so it is essential you keep all the apps and software on your computer updated at all times. Old software is very vulnerable to ransomware attacks.
Keep admin privileges exclusive
Make sure you do not hand out admin privileges to every system on the network. The admin system can change security settings and has access to every configuration. If a lot of users have this privilege, it gives hackers more spots to attack.
What to do in case of a ransomware attack?
If your system or network is hit by a ransomware attack, you can carry out some steps to mitigate the effects. Here’s what you should do.
Don’t panic
Do not give in immediately to the ransomware’s demands. There are some ways to get out of a ransomware attack without paying upfront. Calm down and assess your options. Firstly, you need to take a picture of the message flashing on your screen so you can report it to the authorities. Take a screenshot, if possible.
Isolate the affected system(s)
Isolate the computer(s) affected by the ransomware attack if they are a part of a network. This will prevent the ransomware from spreading to other systems on the network. You will need to disable the WiFi and Bluetooth, unplug any external storage devices, and disconnect from the LAN network. Even if other systems do not show any sign of a ransomware attack, scan them for it as the malware may be dormant.
Identify the malware
There are several websites like ID Ransomware and No More Ransom that help you identify the ransomware strain. Identifying the variant will help you gain more information about the malware and could even help you get rid of it. Even if you are unable to ward off the ransomware, you will have more information to provide to the authorities.
Report the ransomware to the authorities
Getting the authorities involved can help in identifying the attacker and even thwarting any future attacks they may be plotting. This comes at the cost of going public about the ransomware attack, which may bring negative light to your organisation. It is always a good idea to report the attack because it at least places the hackers on the radar of the authorities, thereby reducing the possibility of a future attack on someone else.
Look up any decryption tools
Websites like No More Ransom and Trend Micro offer decryption tools for all kinds of ransomware. You can look up these websites for a tool that matches the variant you are affected by. Unfortunately, cybercriminals are aware of most of the decryption tools floating around and purposely craft malware that is impermeable.
Make an informed choice
Ultimately, it boils down to whether you want to pay to gain access to your data or not. You can either set the precedent and not give in to the demands or pay the money upfront to get rid of the malware. To start afresh, you will need to erase all data from your system, including all external storage devices connected to it. You will lose all your data but it is the only way to get rid of the malware. This is where maintaining regular backups comes in handy.

Conclusion
This is how you can safeguard yourself against ransomware and mitigate it in case you are hit with a ransomware attack. On a final note, we would suggest not giving in to the demands of cyber criminals in case of a ransomware attack. It is better to start fresh by setting a precedent. If more people follow this approach, it will discourage cybercriminals from using these malicious methods.

The new iPhone 14, iPhone 13, iPhone SE, and iPhone 12 lines now have support for 5G cellular connectivity. Customers would need to update to iOS 16.2 in order to enjoy a 5G connection with Jio and Airtel on an iPhone 12 model or later.Software upgrades for Apple’s iOS 16.2 and iPadOS 16.2 are currently rolling out to compatible iPhone and iPad models. For consumers in India, the new update also makes 5G network compatibility available on compatible iPhones.The latest update will offer notable 5G network functionality for iPhone users for Apple consumers in India.Use the physical SIM or eSIM that came with your new iPhone, advises the manufacturer. Use the SIM card from your prior iPhone if you can’t. If you want to utilise the SIM card from your old iPhone with a 5G network, you may need to get in touch with your carrier.According to your data plan, the 5G iPhone default settings are optimised for battery life and data usage. In some apps, you can change these settings for when to use 5G and how much data to use. Find these options by going to Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options or Settings > Mobile Data > Mobile Data Options. If you’re using Dual SIM, go to Settings > Cellular or Settings > Mobile Data and choose the number whose options you want to change.Apple iPhone customers are still waiting to use 5G, but the majority of Android phone users have already begun receiving 5G updates from their OEMs. A software update was required to enable improved connectivity in India after Airtel and Jio just launched 5G services, even though iPhone 12 and subsequent devices come equipped with 5G capability. Apple has already stated that the future iOS 16.2 update will include 5G functionality for iPhone customers in India.Major telecom companies like Jio and Airtel have begun deploying 5G services all over the nation. Since the upgrade is under beta, only participants in the beta programme will have access to the most recent iOS 16.2 update. This also implies that not all iPhone owners who qualify will have access to 5G support quite yet.Eligible iPhone owners will be allowed to use 5G on their handsets after the iOS 16.2 upgrade becomes available for stable-build users.The new Freeform app is available on Apple devices thanks to the iOS and iPadOS 16.2 updates. This would enable users to arrange their work or creative endeavours on a single whiteboard for sharing and collaboration with others. Moreover, the users would be able to collaborate and add files while on a FaceTime conversation.Another feature of the iOS 16.2 update that provides end-to-end encryption to several iCloud services is Advanced Data Protection, which extends end-to-end encryption to iCloud backups, photos, and more.In addition to this Apple Music users with compatible devices can use the Apple Music Sing feature, which adds a karaoke-like singalong function for a selection of music in the Apple Music app.

When you think of a gaming keyboard you imagine something extravagant that is just as pleasant to look at as it is powerful to work with. However, if you’re looking to build a gaming rig on a budget, extravagance usually takes a backseat in favour of a more performance-oriented device. Logitech’s recently released G413 TKL SE with its clean, minimal design and sturdy build offers just that. Currently priced at Rs 5,995, it is one of the more affordable mechanical gaming keyboards that still has a premium touch to it. We used the Logitech G413 TKL SE for a week, here is our review.Read Also: OnePlus Monitor X27 and OnePlus Monitor E24 launched in India

Logitech G413 TKL SE review: Design
Pulling the G413 TKL SE out of the box, you’ll immediately notice the clean design and robust build. Logitech has stripped the gaming keyboard to its bare essentials, getting rid of all the bells and whistles without compromising on the make and the form. Inside the box, you will also find the user documentation, a hotkey guide, and a Logitech sticker along with the mechanical keyboard.The ‘TKL’ stands for ‘tenkeyless’ which means that the G413 TKL SE does not have the number pad on the right side of the keyboard. This adds to the compactness of the keyboard and users who do not find much use for the Numpad will welcome this layout. If a Numpad is something you deem essential to a keyboard, you can go for the non-TKL G413 SE. There are also no macro keys, wrist rest, or dedicated media keys (although the F keys double up to serve some media functions). There are capslock and scroll lock indicators on the top right part along with the Logitech logo.Moving on, the G413 TKL SE feels like a rock-solid keyboard with the top case made out of a low-carbon aluminium alloy. It is a build that inspires confidence and leaves no questions about the case’s durability. The PBT plastic keypads are an upgrade over the ones found in the standard G413 and give the keyboard a more premium feel. The keys are stable, lacking a significant wobble, and can sustain heavy usage without showing any signs of wear. You can even pull out the pair of feet at the bottom to elevate the keyboard.The keys are individually illuminated by white LED backlights, with no other colour options. Logitech has not offered RGB lighting on this keyboard. The brightness can be directly controlled from the keyboard itself by using the ‘Fn + F2 or F3’ shortcut. Since the G413 TKL SE is not compatible with Logitech’s G Hub app, this feature does come in handy. Unlike the G413, the keycaps of the G413 TKL SE are swappable.
Logitech G413 TKL SE review: Performance
In terms of performance, the Logitech G413 TKL SE does exactly what it’s supposed to do. We didn’t expect any extra features that would knock our socks off but were anticipating a satisfactory experience while gaming and performing typing tasks. For those looking for an affordable gaming keyboard, the G413 TKL SE is a great place to start. Perhaps the most important change in the G413 TKL SE is the presence of ‘Long Hua’ switches instead of the Romer-G switches found in its predecessor. The Long Hua is similar to Cherry MX switches but doesn’t replicate the exact performance of Romer-G. You will need a slightly stronger keypress while gaming and typing. However, it is something that you get used to pretty quickly and is an understandable change given the low cost of the keyboard. According to Logitech’s official numbers, the G413 TKL SE offers an Actuation distance of 0.07in with the Actuation force required being 50g. The total travel distance is 0.16in. We played several different games like Apex Legends, Destiny 2, and DOOM Eternal using the G413 TKL SE. You don’t need a driver or installation software to use this keyboard, it is entirely ‘plug n play.’ The tactile switches performed decently but we were impressed by the degree to which Logitech has restored the low latency on this keyboard. The keypresses were registered immediately and we never felt like the keyboard was a step behind while gaming. With a 6-key rollover, you can press up to 6 keys at once and the keyboard will register your input correctly. We would highly recommend the G413 TKL SE to newbie gamers who are looking for a high-performing keyboard within a budget.Gaming performance aside, the typing experience on this keyboard was also very satisfactory. However, if you want to use it exclusively for non-gaming-related tasks, there are other more affordable choices you can go for. Unlike other Logitech keyboards, the G413 TKL SE is not compatible with the G Hub software. This means you cannot customise the keys or access any additional functions.Read Also:Sony HT-A5000 and HT-A3000 soundbars with 360 Spatial Sound Mapping launched in India
Verdict
At Rs 5,995, the Logitech G413 TKL SE is a decent entry-level mechanical gaming keyboard. There is no room for complaints when it comes to the durability and robustness of the keyboard. The performance while gaming and typing is also quite satisfactory and you can easily use the keyboard for long gaming sessions without feeling any fatigue. However, the lack of macro keys and G Hub compatibility limits the functionality a tiny bit.

Robustness, great build qualityPBT keycapsLow latency while gaming

Nowadays, smartphones are on their way to replacing personal computers. You can do much more on the phone, and it’s easier to carry around than a laptop or desktop.
But did you know that there is one area where your smartphone has an even better advantage over traditional PCs?
Gambling halls of all kinds must provide great & handy gaming experience in order to get loyal players. Most gamblers prefer playing online slots on phones, without wasting their precious time on bulk PCs. There are even casino game developers who don’t create games for laptops anymore! A bit crazy, but it’s 2022, darling.
If you want to know why let’s look at some of the features and advantages of mobile gambling:
In This Article
More Flexible than a PC
The main advantage of playing in an online casino from a smartphone is that you can do it anywhere. From your phone, you can play online slots, roulette, blackjack, and even make sports predictions.
All this is from the app or the mobile version of the casino. Besides, mobiles are way too easy to carry around, more compact, and lighter.
Immersive Experience
Touch screens are more accessible and intuitive than your regular keyboard or mouse. This technology is also more responsive since it can adapt the website’s graphics and formats to your screen’s size, making it more immersive.
There are many types of smartphone screens. However, OLED technology is recommended if you want to play in an online casino.
These screens are brighter, have better colour saturation, and have less power consumption. This way, you can enjoy your casino games with a better resolution.
Fast Games Response
When you play in an online casino, especially at a live dealer table, you need that the game works lightly but fast.
The Snapdragon processor is the best option to play in an online casino, offering up to 4K graphics at 60 FPS. The latest Snapdragon processor, the 8 Gen 1, allows fast game response and avoids lag.
The best features of this processor are:
Low latency engine.
An anti-ageing engine.
A smart memory engine to improve system fluidity, prevent ageing, and allow more applications to remain active in the background.
Better Wi-Fi Compatibility
When playing at an online casino, it’s essential to have a good internet connection to enjoy the whole experience.
Many factors can make your phone’s internet faster than your PC—for example, WI-FI standards.
If you have a computer with limited resources, your PC won’t have enough internet speed to support games. On the other hand, if your smartphone is WI-FI 6 standard, the connection will be much faster.
It also matters the WiFi bands. Modern devices can now connect to the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
The first band has the widest coverage, although the speed is more limited. On the other hand, the second band has a higher speed, but only if you are close to the router.
Your computer may not be dual-band and work on the 2.4 GHz band. This makes it slower than smartphones that connect to the 5 GHz band.
Cheaper Than a PC
You don’t have a high-end PC to play casino games. Yet, having a fast PC that can handle long blackjack matches, online slots, or poker opened in multiple tabs while doing work or anything else can be costly.
Instead, a high-end smartphone can be more affordable, offering a more flexible gaming experience.

Google Maps
While there are a lot of navigation apps you can use on Apple CarPlay, Google Maps is unanimously agreed to be the best out of the lot, even surpassing Apple’s own Maps app. A good navigation app is the first thing drivers look for after connecting their phone to the car. Google Maps checks all boxes for the ideal navigation app. One of the better features of Google Maps is that it offers voice navigation while driving, so you don’t have to look at the screen to follow the directions.
Spotify
Once you’ve selected a navigation app, you will need a music app to make your drive more fun. With millions of artists on its app, Spotify is one of the biggest music platforms in the world. The Spotify app works smoothly with Apple CarPlay and offers accessible controls that you can easily use while driving. You can even use Siri to play your preferred song, playlist, or podcast on Spotify.
Apple Music
Don’t have a Spotify subscription? Use Apple Music. The Apple Music app is native to your iPhone. In terms of functionality, it is pretty evenly matched with Spotify, offering a similar range of artists. You can use Siri to control Apple Music as well. Since Spotify and Apple Music do not have much separating them, all it comes down to is your personal preference.
Stitcher
Stitcher has been the go-to app for podcast listeners for over a decade now. With over 100,000 podcasts, you are bound to find your favourite show on this app. Some of the popular podcasts on Stitcher are NPR, This American Life, Radiolab, and more. Listening to a podcast before getting into your car? With just a few taps on Apple CarPlay, you can resume from where you left off. Stitcher also has a premium subscription service that offers advanced features.
WhatsApp
Any infotainment system is incomplete if it does not let you access messages on WhatsApp. Luckily, WhatsApp is compatible with Apple CarPlay and lets you access your messages while driving. The best part of using WhatsApp on CarPlay is that you don’t have to look at the screen while reading and responding to your messages. Siri reads out all your pending messages and even sends replies when you dictate them to it.
PlugShare
If you own an electric car, PlugShare is an essential app that you need to download right now. Using the PlugShare you can find public charging stations for your EV near you. Community contribution is a big part of PlugShare. You will find detailed reviews of most charging stations on the app itself. You can even filter the charging station map by plug type and charging speed. You can even pay for your EV’s charging using the PlugShare app itself.
Waze
Waze is an excellent alternative to Google Maps and Apple Maps for Apple CarPlay. Waze is a crowdsourced app so it lets you know if users have reported any recent accidents or other events on the path you’re on. Apart from that, Waze also gives you additional information about your route like the gas stations on the way, police checks, and traffic status.
TuneIn
With over 100,000 AM and FM stations, TuneIn takes care of all things radio. TuneIn has been one of the most popular internet radio apps ever since radio apps started rolling out. The stations offered on TuneIn range from music, news, sport, and talk radio. You can even listen to the major podcasts on this app.
SpotHero
Live in a crowded city where it’s near-impossible to find parking space? SpotHero is the app you’re looking for. Using SpotHero you can easily find parking space even during rush hours. The app works best in major US cities. You can even enter the time and date in advance and reserve your spot in the parking garage. Using SpotHero you can save up to 50% on the parking fee.
Audible
The largest audiobook library app, Audible, is also available for Apple CarPlay. Now you don’t have to miss out on precious reading time while driving. Simply open the Audible app on CarPlay and you can pick up where you left off. While this app is extremely beneficial to the driver, passengers who suffer from motion sickness while reading will enjoy it just as much.

While there is certainly no dearth of Instant Messaging apps for smartphones, there are only two apps that enjoy massive popularity among the masses – WhatsApp and Telegram. When it comes down to features and basic functionality, both apps are almost alike. However, there are certain aspects that set them apart. For example, if you want to establish a community or an online club, Telegram would be the more ideal app due to its larger group size and the option to not make your phone number public to everyone. WhatsApp, on the other hand, is more suited for communicating with people you know closely. In this article, we draw a comparison between WhatsApp and Telegram so you can decide which one is the ideal app for you.Read Also: Lenovo introduces the ‘Custom To Order’ feature for desktops in India

Popularity
The most important factor when deciding on which instant messenger to use is its popularity. No matter how great an IM is, it won’t be of much use if you don’t have any contacts on it. With over 2 billion monthly active users, WhatsApp dwarfs every other instant messaging app in terms of popularity. With over a billion downloads and 500 million monthly active users, Telegram is still pretty popular but is easily beaten by WhatsApp.
Privacy
In terms of privacy, both apps are pretty evenly matched with Telegram nearly edging out WhatsApp by a slim margin. Both apps provide end-to-end encryption for messages. Recently, WhatsApp also introduced end-to-end encryption for status updates. Telegram also offers a ‘secret chat’ feature, where the messages are encrypted and can be set to self-destruct after a certain period of time. Users are not allowed to forward or take screenshots of messages sent in a secret chat. While WhatsApp also offers self-disappearing messages, Telegram offers more timer options. Finally, Telegram gives the user an option to keep their phone number private. You can set up a username and let other people add you through it. Making your phone number public is not necessary, although it is required to sign up for Telegram. This makes group chats more secure for users who are not comfortable with their phone numbers being displayed to everyone in the chat.
File Sharing and Groups
For the longest time, WhatsApp was trailing behind Telegram when it came to the file sharing limit. Earlier this year, WhatsApp announced that users can share files up to 2GB in size, matching Telegram’s limit. However, if you’re a Telegram Premium subscriber, you can share files up to 4GB in size. Telegram users also get free cloud storage.WhatsApp also recently increased the group limit to 1,024 members. In comparison, Telegram allows 200,000 members to be a part of a group. This is what makes Telegram a great platform to host communities and online clubs. Many online personalities use Telegram as a platform to directly communicate with their community. Since you have the option to make your phone number private, group chats on Telegram work really well. You can even use several bots to moderate the groups.
Other Features
Both apps offer some exclusive features that may appeal to different users. To start with, Telegram lets users upload more than one profile picture. While WhatsApp may not have this feature, it makes up for it by letting users post images and videos as status updates.WhatsApp is also quickly becoming a platform for businesses to directly get in contact with consumers. You can use the platform to order products, book tickets, and even get in touch with customer support. With WhatsApp rolling out its own payment portal recently, it has gotten incredibly easy for users to utilise the e-commerce services on the platform. Telegram does not have anything to match up with WhatsApp in this regard.Telegram lets users access one account on multiple devices. WhatsApp will be offering multi-device connectivity in the future, but as of now, you can only use one account on one smartphone. However, you can access your account on a web browser using WhatsApp’s web portal.Read Also: Top 5 Gaming mice under Rs 15,000 for the gamer in you (2022)
