Fujifilm's X-M1 interchangeable camera leaks out, doesn't mess with retro success

Fujifilm's XM1 interchangeable camera leaks out, doesn't mess with vintage success

Fujifilm's about to extend its line of mirrorless shooters packing manual dials and vintage looks, if a leak from Digicame Info is to be believed. The Japanese rumor site has flaunted pictures of a purported X-M1 model, which bears a strong resemblance to X-E1 we saw last year, minus the electronic viewfinder and shutter-speed selector dial. In place of the latter is a general mode selector, along with a tiltable LCD screen and WiFi, judging by the pictures above and after the break. While all that points to a cheaper model aimed at more casual shooters, there's no word from the company about specs, pricing or a release date, obviously. As soon as we hear, of course, you'll be the first to know.

(AP) ? Russia's foreign minister has strongly warned that an international conference intended to negotiate peace for Syria could be derailed if the U.S. decides to push for a no-fly zone over the country.

Sergey Lavrov, speaking in an interview with The Associated Press and the Bloomberg news agency on Friday, also warned against pushing the demand for Syrian President Bashar Assad to step down, calling it unrealistic. He accused the West of sending conflicting signals to the Syrian opposition, encouraging rebels to keep fighting.

He said that supplies of weapons to the Syrian opposition promised by Washington and under consideration by the EU would be a "very big mistake."

A time and place for the international conference on Syria hasn't been announced yet.

Duke Ellington: Jack The Bear

This is gonna be a classy Friday night. You don't have to groove to Duke Ellington all the time, but when you do you should turn on Jack The Bear. This chart showcases Jimmy Blanton (Jack the bear...get it?), a bassist who at 22 brought the band to a new level in the early 1940s. Even if you hate 32-bar form and blues choruses, or you think pretentious nonsense is happening right now, listen to the end of the track for the bass solo. That's what it sounds like when someone nails it. [Amazon, iTunes, Spotify]

Mobile devices can have heavy impact on business security

Mobile devices can be an asset to any modern organization. As more companies adopt bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies, deploying these programs is becoming essential in order to remain competitive. Businesses with increased mobility enjoy benefits such as cost savings, increased productivity, higher employee engagement and more, so it's critical that firms aren't left behind if they want to rise to the top of their respective industries.

However, there are some risks that come with engaging in BYOD, including threats to data protection. Dark Reading reported that according to a Check Point report, 79 percent of enterprises have experienced a mobile-related security issue in the past year. The study found that among the 67 percent of organizations that acknowledged that they allow personal gadgets to access their networks, 88 percent of smartphones and tablets were used for email, 53 percent were storing client information and 49 percent contained corporate data within business apps. Nearly half (48 percent) additionally had network logins saved.

However, despite these usage patterns, Check Point revealed that many businesses are not taking the necessary action to prevent risk factors from causing data breaches. In fact, 63 percent of respondents said that their company does not make an effort to manage enterprise-related information on employee-owned endpoints.

In order to maximize security, 1to1Media?pointed out that businesses should?take proactive steps to manage device use. The source noted that an Ovum study advised that businesses learn?about why workers engage in BYOD and what behaviors they engage in while on mobile devices, as well as gain insight into their staff's opinions on data security, including application use. Knowing how employees approach BYOD may help leaders develop more comprehensive policies and implement more effective solutions for data loss prevention.
