Encryption - Why It Matters to You
M
uch ado has been made about encryption lately. And on some level, you probably understand it. Sort of.
You might know, for instance, that the FBI and Apple have tangled over it. (Apple won.) Most large companies like Google and Facebook support Apple’s position. And that encryption keeps your “stuff” safe from prying eyes. The problem is that the idea of privacy is just that these days -- an idea. “The way technology is woven into our daily lives, you can’t do without it,” Amy Danker, an employee at Epic Wines and Spirits, told the Oakland Tribune in a recent interview. “So what’s your other option? Are you gonna go back to a pager? I just assume that all my private information is already available through my IP ad-dress. You don’t even think privacy exists, because it doesn’t anymore, right?” Natalie Plotnikova agrees, saying the arm of the law is getting too long. “I don’t really like it,” Plotnikova told the Oakland Tribune as she waited to be cleared through security at the Federal Building in San Jose. “I don’t want the government to be able to use my phone to see my information.” This, say experts, is why encryption is necessary and important -especially in our current mobile, on-the-go environment, where everything you do is done on smartphones. By having your information scrambled so that only the person you are sending it to can see it, your privacy is maintained and your information remains secure. To that end, technology from a company called VirnetX -- which created an app called Gabriel, that uses encryption technology derived from a CIA national security program -- may be the answer.

Hear Better, Live Better
ccording to the Center for Hearing and Communication, over 48 million Americans suffer from hearing loss, more than those living with Parkinson’s, epilepsy, Alzheimer’s and diabetes combined. What’s more, 80 percent of those over 65—some 23 million—don’t seek treatment. The Problem Untreated hearing loss can lead to isolation and depression, and recent research has found that those with even mild hearing loss are more likely to develop dementia. An Answer To help people with hearing loss stay connected with their loved ones and not miss out on key moments in life, Duracell is partnering with The National Hearing Test to offer 50,000 free hearing tests by phone during May, National Better Hearing Month, at 1-844-9-Duracell (844-9387223).
An Inspiration The company also created “Stay Connected,” a film featuring the voice of award-winning actor and director John Slattery (“Spotlight,” “Mad Men”), that tells the story of a father who slowly starts to slip into isolation due to his hearing impairment until he visits an audiologist and is fitted for a hearing aid. The Free Test The quick and convenient over-the-phone hearing test, developed with funding from the National Institutes of Health, is scientifically validated and not for profit, and its results remain private to the user. To take the free hearing test, call 1-844-9-Duracell (844-938-7223). Learn More Further facts are at www.Duracell.com/StayConnected. -(NAPSI)
