Not a lot of news over the weekend, but there were a lot of good reads. Krebs on Security talks about a new card breach at Hilton Hotel properties. This one is still in the analysis phase, so we will probably hear more about this later. Mozilla gives us their version of a healthy and sustainable web. Google announces Google Play services v8.1, so you can get ready for “Marshmallow”. There are a lot of new features, so definitely interesting to read.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
