Two months after the Heartbleed vulnerability sent frissons of fear down the spines of IT managers everywhere, 300,000 servers still remain vulnerable, Errata Security said. When the flaw was announced in April, Errata found 600,000 servers vulnerable. "The norm is to do no patches at all for some systems, no matter how easy it is to patch," said Errata CEO Robert Graham. "If they're retirement management systems, [being left unpatched] won't be a problem, but if they're on a power grid, there is a problem."

Ransomware is a growing problem for consumers and businesses. In Symantec's most recent quarterly security report, the company's researchers found all targeted attacks -- including ransomware -- grew 91 percent year-over-year. That's raising a big question for those targeted by cyberextortionists: Should the ransom be paid? Security experts generally say no, but some insert a caveat or two. "It's easy to say you shouldn't pay the ransom, but you may have to do it to save your business," said Troy Gill, a senior security analyst with AppRiver.

In the wake of overwhelming evidence that the kill switch Apple introduced in iOS 7 last year has reduced iPhone thefts, Google and Microsoft have agreed to follow suit. SF District Attorney George Gascon and NY Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who have spearheaded the battle to implement smartphone kill switches, last week announced that the next versions of Android and Windows Phone will include a kill switch. Crimes related to iPhones -- robberies, muggings and theft, often violent -- were reaching epidemic proportions.

So the dog days of summer are upon us once again here in the northern reaches of the Linux blogosphere, and for countless young people out there, that means it's time for camp. Some, of course, will take this time to pursue their sweaty fun in the great out-of-doors alongside our friends the ticks and mosquitoes. Linux Girl wishes those hearty souls well from the chilly confines of her arctic lair. Many others will go to code camp instead, and learn skills that will last them a lifetime.
