‘Golden Frog’ is such a poetic name; can you explain the meaning or origin of the name? Our founders were in the Peace Corps, and spent a lot of time in Brazil and Panama.

Such advancements are in line with The White House’s May 2022 national security memorandum that put an emphasis on the U.S.’s quantum computing roadmap. If the researchers’ proposed protocol is run via a 50+ qubit quantum computer — like Google’s Sycamore processor — it could produce truly random (and not pseudorandom) unpredictable numbers sequences impervious to cyber-compromise. Other quantum computers like Xanadu’s Borealis, USTC’s Jiuzhang, and “Zu Chongzhi,” are also viable, researchers said....

vpnMentor’s researchers, led by security researchers Noam Rotem and Ran Locar, identified the consequential data breach that exposes access to 264GB of Tech Data’s client servers, invoices, SAP integrations, plain-text passwords, and much more.

Some of them are extremely popular: a game mimicking the show’s “red light, green light” game was downloaded over million times in just ten days....

Consent Two weeks ago, the Financial Post published an article about the fact that Tim Hortons’ mobile ordering app was tracking the movements of its customers. James McLeod, a reporter for the Financial Post, looked into his own data. He found out that the app had been logging his coordinates for months without him knowing about it. He had never consciously given consent for this. The app knew where his home and workplace were located, which makes sense since it needs to know a users’ location to route an order to the nearest restaurant....
