The CSS3 box-shadow property allows web designers to implement drop shadows on box elements. Developers can specify box-shadows values for color, size, blur, and offset. If a border-radius is specified on the element with a box shadow, the box shadow takes on the same rounded corners.

When did you first get interested in computers and security? When Balaji was earning his undergraduate degree in engineering in India in 1992, he fell in love with Fortran, a programming language. As he progressed through earning two graduate degrees, in computer science and software engineering at both Bradley and San Jose State respectively, he carried this passion for Fortran. This led him to fall in love with computers and security....

Air Marshal Edward Stringer, an officer in charge at the time, told Sky News that the cyberattack was discovered in March 2021. According to the retired officer, “unusual activity” was detected by IT outsourcer Serco but originally it was thought that this may have been due to some form of IT error rather than something malicious. The Defence Academy of the United Kingdom was the target. The organization is responsible for teaching and training thousands of military personnel, MoD employees, wider government figures, and overseas students....

Charlie Cox supports the petition launched by fans to revive Daredevil. Playing the show’s lead Matt Murdock since 2015, the actor played the role four times - in three seasons of the show and in Marvel/Netflix’s ensemble project The Defenders in 2017. Being the most well-received among all offerings from the small screen franchise, fans were naturally shocked and frustrated when it was announced that Daredevil was canceled. The decision came after Netflix had already pulled the plug on Luke Cage and Iron Fist....

Take, for example, Coca Cola’s ubiquitous polar bears. In 1992, ad exec Ken Stewart wanted to recreate the feel-good moments from some of Coke’s most famous advertisements. His inspiration finally came, not from a textbook, but his labrador retriever. “If I could just capture the feeling I have for that dog…” he thought to himself. Suddenly, his dog’s longtime nickname - baby polar bear - came into focus. Armed with a cute new character, Stewart got to work formulating a story....

Actor Burt Ward has been confirmed for the 2019 Arrowverse crossover event Crisis On Infinite Earths, but whom will the former Robin be playing? While this wouldn’t seem to be much of a mystery at first glance, complications behind the scene have left fans guessing. Ward’s performance in the 1966 live-action Batman television series set the tone for every version of Robin to follow after him. While it might seem obvious that Ward would join the Arrowverse in the same role, Warner Bros....

What Is It? The Cut the Rope franchise is almost as popular (and addictive) as Angry Birds. You aim to “cut the rope” in as few steps as possible and get stars. In this version, Om Nom (the main character) can change into all sorts of animals. That’s the magic part of the game. Who Is It Good For? Pretty much anyone, young or old, will enjoy these types of quick puzzle games....

Actor Dan Aykroyd has written a script for a Ghostbusters prequel that would feature the team during their high school years in 1969. Fans of the original Ghostbusters movies shouldn’t get too excited just yet, however, as the only confirmed upcoming Ghostbusters film is the soon-to-be sequel directed by Jason Reitman, son of original director Ivan Reitman. Reitman’s Ghostbusters sequel was confirmed at the start of the year and will be set in the original Ghostbusters universe rather than the rebooted one....

Warning! SPOILERS for Daredevil #17 below. There’s no such thing as a complete win when it comes to Daredevil’s life. Over the course of Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Fornes’ Daredevil run, Matt Murdock has accidentally murdered a criminal, become the target of a manhunt, advised his own client to out his secret identity, and slept with a married woman with ties to the mob. His latest and most dangerous moment of recklessness is an actual benefit to his city, and he’s happy with himself for the first time in a while… but as the consequences of his choices ripple out in Daredevil #17, it’s clear that Daredevil is far from finished getting people killed....

director Ava DuVernay has offered her opinion in the debate over who would win in a fight between Darkseid and Thanos. The common argument has been doing the rounds on Twitter lately, stoking predictably heated debates, patronizing comments and lots of angry nerd yelling. Comparing characters of similar power types and skill sets and engaging in passionate and lengthy arguments over which of them would win in a fight is a tradition as old as comics themselves....

In such a situation, client-side attack and having knowledge in programming are your best friends. Why is that? A client-side attack is considered a very dangerous threat, especially when it’s combined with a coordinated social engineering attack against employees who are not aware of the IT security field. For example, no matter what your security rules are, if you can trick the right person into opening the wrong (malicious) software, the system may get compromised....

The critically acclaimed mobile title Florence is coming to Nintendo Switch and PC next week. Gamers are much busier these days, and sometimes some of the best games are mobile titles. Florence may not have had very impressive sales on mobile, but was a massive critical hit when it released in February 2018. It won several “Best Mobile Game” awards with groups like The Game Awards, DICE Awards, GDC Awards, and the BAFTAs....

We’ve seen a lot of images, renders, schematics, and videos of the expected 4.7-inch version of the iPhone 6, but relatively little on its rumored larger brother, a 5.5-inch model. This crude 3D-printed mockup posted to RocketNews24 makes no claims to be anything more than an illustration of what a 5.5-inch iPhone 6 would look like in terms of size, both in the hand and compared to an iPhone 5S, but does do a good job of turning the abstract dimension into something concrete....

The information is money and criminals follow it, the schemes of monetization are various and target every sector. Cybercrime is evolving in complexity and organizational capacity, under many aspects it works exactly as a major enterprise. Cyber-attacks, malware, identity theft, phishing and spam are the emerging threats that menace the users in cyberspace. The attackers commit malicious activity that creates a shadow economy comparable to the one of principal states of the planet....

Cybersecurity Awareness Month is mostly geared toward businesses rather than individuals, encouraging them to ensure they carry out risk assessments and follow best practices to protect their IT systems. (There appear to be one or two companies who could use a little work there…) But it’s also a worthwhile reminder to individuals to check their own cybersecurity, and for us to offer some advice to less-techie friends and family members....

Guillermo Del Toro launched a brand new franchise hopeful in 2013 by bringing giant robots and monsters together for Pacific Rim. Despite the talent involved and the bold scope that the film worked with, domestic audiences did not show up in big numbers for the epic clash. Instead, it was the international audiences that made the first installment a success worthy of a sequel, and now Pacific Rim: Uprising is officially a go....

To help protect data centres – and the data stored within them – the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and the Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure (CPNI) have come together to offer security guidance to data centre operators and users. “Operators and users of data centres have a clear responsibility to protect the data that they hold and process – failing to do this poses a massive financial, reputational and, in some cases, national security risk,” said Dr Ian Levy, technical director at NCSC....

Kevin Conroy is confirmed to be appearing in the Arrowverse’s highly-anticipated Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, but why is he only playing Bruce Wayne and not Batman? The seminal comic book storyline, upon which the five-hour event is based, was originally published in 1985. Designed to help commemorate DC’s 50th anniversary, the 12-issue series ultimately changed the entire landscape of the DC universe, killing off multiple characters and merging various parallel Earths into one....
