MOSCOW - Russia said on Monday it had added the popular dating app Tinder to a list of entities obliged to hand over user data and messages to law enforcement agencies on demand, including the main successor agency to the Soviet-era KGB. Roskomnadzor, Russia's telecoms and media regulator, said in a statement that Tinder had been added to its special register at the end of last month after providing the requisite information to allow itself to be added. The move, part of a wider Russian drive to regulate the internet, means that Tinder will be obliged to store users' metadata on servers inside Russia for at least six months as well as their text, audio or video messages. Russia's law enforcement agencies such as the FSB security service, which took over most of the KGB's functions, can require companies on the register to hand over data on demand. The Russian state's increased regulation of the internet has drawn criticism from some opposition politicians and sparked protests from campaigners who are concerned about what they say is creeping Chinese-style control of the online world.

This is Part 2 of a 3-part series. Security teams today are under-staffed, over-worked, under-funded and struggling to stay abreast of the ever-changing threat landscape. Many security analysts work long hours poring over millions of security events to protect systems and fix vulnerabilities. Simply put, there is too much information and not enough analysts. Fortunately, humans are not the only answer for solving the cybersecurity crisis.

AI deployment in the corporate world is at a critical inflexion point, often stuck at the proof of concept (POC) stage. The need for translation between data science teams and business stakeholders means that corporates should consider appointing a Chief AI Officer (CAIO) to set strategy, support technology choices, and drive roll-out. As machine learning becomes business as usual, the ambition should be to make them redundant. But until you are there, a CAIO may be just the shock to the system that your business needs. The Chief Executive has attended the conference, her senior team have had the briefings.

Clay discovered on Mars that formed when soil mixed with water may give crucial clues to life that once lived on the now-barren planet billions of years ago. NASA's six-wheeled Curiosity rover has discovered the material on the martian surface beforehand - but never in such large quantities. Curiosity marked the occasion with an impressive selfie via its Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI), a camera on the end of the rover's robotic arm. NASA's six-wheeled robot has found clay on the martian surface beforehand but never before in such large quantities. It was also marked with an impressive selfie of the Curiosity rover via its Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI), a camera on the end of the rover's robotic arm (pictured) The momentous discovery was made in an area aptly known as the'clay-bearing unit' on the incline at the base of Mount Sharp, a 3.4 mile-high (4.5km) mountain.

A newly launched investigation could finally get to the bottom of a mystery that has baffled scientists since the 1950s. For decades, scientists have observed brief flashes of light that appear on the surface of the moon several times a week. But, no one knows exactly what's causing them. Now, using a specially designed lunar telescope in Spain that boasts two cameras, a team will keep an eye on the moon's activity every night in hopes to capture these strange phenomena and ultimately pinpoint the source. For decades, scientists have observed brief flashes of light that appear on the surface of the moon several times a week.

The Navy is planning to launch a massive, 50-ton undersea drone to expand mission scope, increase attack options, integrate large high-tech sensors, further safeguard manned combat crews and possibly fire torpedoes -- all while waging war under the ocean surface. The 50-ton Orca, which would not fit in a submarine launch tube, brings an unprecedented sensing, endurance and attack advantage. The Navy has finished its Critical Design Review of the Orca, called an Extra Large Unmanned Undersea Vehicle, and begun construction, Capt. Pete Small, Program Manager for Unmanned Systems, Naval Sea Systems Command, said in early May at the Navy League's Sea Air Space Symposium. Earlier this year, Boeing was awarded a $43 million deal to build four Orcas.

Don DeSanto, director of strategic partnerships for the BAE Systems Intelligence & Security sector, said of the project: "RPAs fuel machine learning tools by feeding them high volumes of structured data necessary for it to begin learning and improving automatically, without being programmed. Human-machine teaming is the future of technology, and RPAs serve as workforce multipliers that can be designed to automate many common tasks performed in organizations every day." According to information from BAE Systems, the tools allow human analysts to shift their attention to managing more critical challenges.; RPAs are capable of searching, sorting, and in some cases, processing large data sets to complete work that currently takes employees hours to complete.

Building a competent cybersecurity practice takes effective and intelligent cybersecurity solutions. When a layered strategy is combined with artificial intelligence and machine learning, businesses of all sizes can increase their resistance to attacks and breaches. Before getting started, it's essential to understand the role artificial intelligence and machine learning play in effective cybersecurity, as well has how they can help better protect clients and bolster profitability for MSPs.

AI photography startup Meero may be the perfect example of how far the French Tech ecosystem has come in recent years. Founded in 2016, the company has already raised $63.4 million in venture capital, including a $45 million round last summer. It has almost 1,000 employees after the 400 it hired in just the past six months. And Meero was one of the few startups to stand out at the recent Viva Technology conference in Paris, an event largely organized around the digital transformation efforts of France's largest corporations. Meero's velocity and trajectory is the stuff that makes the hearts of French Tech boosters beat a little faster. Speaking on stage at VivaTech, cofounder and CEO Thomas Rebaud said he always dreamed about turning Meero into an international company and urged his employees to be ambitious.
