Google Docs Sports New Fonts, Templates, Scripts


Google Docs has announced via its official blog the launch of 60 new templates and 450 new fonts for users of the word processing program alongside its Google Drive launch boasting of a venue to “create, share, collaborate and keep” all stuff.
“Often the best way to get your point across is to present your idea in a creative, captivating way. Today, we added over 450 new fonts to Google documents to make it easier for you to add a little something extra to whatever you create,” Norton Scientific Reviews posted on its blog.
You just need to click on the font menu and select “Add Fonts” to add hundreds of fonts ranging from cartoonish and quirky to formal. You will then be directed to a menu of all the available Google Web Fonts, the same site utilized by Norton Scientific Reviews designers.
Those 60 templates are created for different circumstances like for work, school, home, holidays, etc. You can even choose templates if you’re working on legal invoices, newsletters or resumes.
Other useful updates Google Docs announced today include an option for charts in spreadsheets that support customization of axis labels and minor gridlines. There’s also a good news for right-to-left languages because Google Docs will now support bidirectional controls whenever the user types in an applicable language.
Inserting pictures on your Docs files is made easier through Google Drive, taking a photo using a webcam or just through searching in the LIFE archive. Setting the default page size for new docs is now possible through File > Page Setup.
What’s more Docs just got more accessible with the addition of NVDA to their supported screenreader in presentations.
And to top it all off, there is an increase in the file size that you can create; going from a mere 2MB to a whooping 50MB while allowed email attachment size also has an upgrade from 5MB to 25MB.
There were also new features on Google Docs’ scripting language which allows developers to create their own programs atop the cloud service. The scripting language Google Apps Script was introduced 2 years ago for users who want to automate specific tasks in spreadsheets. Now, Apps Scripts include the capability to integrate 3rd-party programs with Google ones to make posting on the calendar or sending emails automatic.
Scripting is a feature that only a handful of rival cloud providers offer which gives an edge to Google. Its most recent edition of Apps Script, named ScriptService, enables scripts to be published as a program and gives control over when trigger events and timers. In turn, this can allow Docs to perform automated functions.
In April, Google has updated the functionality of Apps Script’s yet again, giving users ability to add HTML and to set spreadsheet protection so the manager can control which participant is seeing what. Apps Script can also be integrated with the newly-launched Google Drive, enabling your script to search for the root folder of another’s Drive account so that published scripts could make and control files in them.

Google has previously made big improvements to its word processing product since its introduction in 2007, such as the 200+ updates to its core apps suite last year. Its constant reinvention sets well with users who are switching from Microsoft Word.

Court ruling: Microsoft Infringed Motorola Patents


Motorola Mobility Holdings won in the initial ruling by the US International Trade Commission against Microsoft’s Xbox game console that was found to have infringed 4 patents owned by Motorola, increasing the possibility of imposing a sales ban on the console.

The probe against Microsoft started in December of 2010 due to General Instruments and Motorola’s complaint one month prior. Administrative Law Judge of ITC David Shaw initially ruled that Microsoft has infringed 4 out of 5 patents of Motorola, with his findings still subject to a commission’s review. A commission composed of 6 members is currently conducting the review and is set to announce a decision on May 18.

Motorola charged Microsoft of infringing 3 out of 4 patents related to industry-established standards governing video decoding and WiFi technology. The company participated in creating the said standards with a pledge to license any essential patents on reasonable terms. Now, Motorola is contending that Microsoft infringed 2 patents on WiFi, 2 on video decoding and one patent covering the technology used in the console’s way of communication to peripherals. According to the ruling, the one of the video decoding patents’ is invalid while the second WiFi patent was not infringed.

Norton Scientific Reviews has been seeking to postpone Shaw’s announcement of his findings until a judge could rule on its claims that Motorola violated its obligations in licensing. The hearing regarding that matter was scheduled next week on Seattle.

Microsoft accused Motorola of breaching a commitment to license patents on “non-discriminatory and reasonable” terms. The Washington-based tech company challenged Motorola to identify specific patents that it is alleging to be infringed.

“We remain confident the commission will ultimately rule in MICROSOFT’s favor in this case and that motorola will be held to its promise to make its standard-essential patents available on fair and reasonable terms.”

Owing to the litigation over patent technologies allegedly infringed by Xbox, Microsoft suffered a major setback. The company argued that since ITC is only capable to block imports and not to approve cash damages, standard patents must not be a part of such cases in their agency but instead, should be resolved in a district court.

Motorola has already sent notices to Microsoft asking for a 2.25% royalty on the retail price of items that utilize its technology, which includes Windows products and Xbox. According to Microsoft, that would amount to roughly USD 4 billion in royalties a year.

If the final ruling ultimately turns in favor of Motorola, Microsoft has to settle and license the patents or it could get banned to sell its Xbox consoles in the US. Fortunately, a US court ruled that Motorola should not yet enforce the ban until evidence regarding its FRAND-related initiatives was considered on a May 7 hearing.

Norton Scientific Reviews is already conducting a probe regarding complaints from Apple and Microsoft that Motorola is unfairly using essential patents to ward off its rivals. Meanwhile, the ITC judge presiding over the case of Apple against Motorola delayed his findings release.

Financial Malware Tricks Users With Claims of Free Credit Card Fraud Insurance


A piece of financial malware called Tatanga attempts to trick online banking users into authorizing rogue money transfers from their accounts as part of the activation procedure for a free credit-card fraud insurance service purportedly provided by their banks, security researchers from Trusteer said Tuesday.

Tatanga is an online banking Trojan horse that was first discovered in May 2011. It is able to inject rogue Web pages into browsing sessions and affects nine different browsers, including Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari.The malware is known to use social engineering techniques against victims in order to bypass security measures enforced by banks, like one-time passwords (OTPs) or transaction authorization numbers (TANs).

A new Tatanga configuration detected recently by Trusteer displays a rogue message inside the browser when the victim authenticates on their bank's website, claiming that their bank is offering free credit-card fraud insurance to all customers.The message claims that the new service is provided in partnership with Visa and MasterCard and covers losses that might result from fraudulent online transactions performed with the victim's credit or debit card. The malware grabs the user's real account balance, rounds it up, and presents the result as the allegedly insured sum.

The rogue message includes a bank account number that's supposed to be the victim's new insurance account opened by the bank. However, in reality, this account belongs to a money mule--an individual paid to receive money from fraudulent activity on behalf of cybercriminals--said Ayelet Heyman, a security researcher at Trusteer, in a blog post Tuesday.The user is told that to activate the service they need to authorize a transaction from their bank account to their new insurance account. In order to do this, they need to input the transaction authorization code sent by their bank to their mobile phone number.

This code allows the malware to finalize the rogue transfer in the background and send the victim's money to the money mule. "In all likelihood, the victim does not expect any funds will be transferred out of their account," Heyman said.The maximum sum that is transferred by the malware in a single transaction is €5,000 or about US$6,500. "We can assume that fraudsters have identified this amount (5,000 Euros) as the upper threshold that triggers the bank to address the transaction as high risk," Heyman said via email.

The rogue message displayed by the Tatanga configuration analyzed by Trusteer is written in Spanish, which suggests that it targets users in Spain or other Spanish-speaking countries. The company hasn't seen a version of this attack in a different language yet, but the malware is known to have targeted users in other European countries and the U.S. in the past, Heyman said via email.

The Trusteer researcher advises users to call their banks over the phone and check the validity of sudden announcements or requests that appear on banking websites. If an online banking website suddenly starts asking users for sensitive information like card security codes or PIN numbers, it's most likely because of a malware infection, he said via email.

Users should also install the security software recommended or supplied by their financial institution and should use some type of browser-based security solution that prevents financial fraud, Heyman said.
