Two platforms - two different worlds

   Apple and Google are two global giants that firmly occupy the leading place in the market of software for mobile platforms. These two companies, one way or another, try to oust Microsoft in the area it doesn’t have benefits (at least for now), and concentrate their forces on mobile devices.

 Apple’s IOS operating systems and Google`s Android have their advantages and disadvantages. Let's try to understand what platform is more functional and adapted for the modern user.

   1. Universality of the system

It is much easier to implement modifications and create applications on Android. This may explain the choice of HTC, Samsung and Sony in favor of Android, while the IOS supports only Apple products.

This is a serious disadvantage for Apple and a huge plus for Google. Choosing a smartphone on Android, you can install and use a variety of third-party applications and extensions.

   2. Browsers. Page loading speed

Once again, it is clear that first position in this category holds Android. Browser Safari is fast and reliable in terms of security, but unfortunately not as universal as Chrome.

   3. Battery life

Apple devices have an obvious advantage in energy consumption. Where in Battery capacity doesn`t play a role. Even the most capacious batteries of leading manufacturers quickly go dead on Android. Apple developers have paid more attention to this component and devices on the IOS work much longer.

   4. Applications from developers.

Applications for the devices may vary according to the developer and the device, but in general the leadership keeps ITunes.

The conclusion – one can choose in its sole discretion what platform to choose by the criteria described above.

The main principles to Secure Outsourcing

   Today, customers are hesitant to outsource because of security issues.  However, you can ease your concerns by following the guidelines listed below.

       1. Security Policy

  The first step is to ensure that everything is in order in your organization. You must also check your security policy. The policy should state clear standards and guidelines. These guidelines should be finalized by the stakeholders, managers and employees of your organization.

       2.  Choosing the Right Vendor

  This is an important step for the security of your business. You must ensure if the selected vendor has strict security policies in place and enforces those policies within his or her organization. Make sure he or she has security policies preventing anyone from copying your data to portable devices.

        3. A sound Privacy and Intellectual Property Policy

  Check if your vendor has sound intellectual property protection laws. Make sure that your vendor will go by your privacy and intellectual property policies. Ensure that all of this is clear to avoid later misunderstandings.

        4. Protect Your Data

  Start employing the use of application layer firewalls and database monitoring gateways. These devices can help you enforce usage policies. Such devices can also prevent privilege abuse and vulnerability exploitation. Choose a vendor who uses these functionalities as well as they help in total data protection.

        5. Providing Education on handling data

  Check if your vendor is educating his/her employees on how to handle and protect sensitive data. In case your vendor is not providing education, ensure that he/she provides education. This is very important, as this will help ensure the security of your data.

              6. The rule of least privilege

  Determine a method to monitor material exceptions. In addition, guarantee the Rule of Least Usage. Never allow access to all of your records at one time and never allow unmonitored access.

        7. Leak-Proof traffic

  To ensure leak-proof traffic, make certain outbound e-mail and Internet traffic is monitored to prevent information leaks.

         8. Security Audits

  Conduct regular application/database security audits and network security audits to make certain of secure outsourcing. These audits can help identify issues and potential vulnerabilities with databases, devices, and applications on the network.

         9. Prevention Technologies

  Check the prevention technologies that your vendor uses. Inquire if your vendor has a technology to control data flow. Also check if your vendor’s policies are followed by the employees. In addition, make sure that your vendor has technologies to protect sensitive data from being emailed or copied to removable types of media.

Python

Python – a technology for successful and easy startups
