  • Does the Heartbleed Bug affect macs?

    I have been hearing about the heartbleed bug and just wondering if it is affecting Apple products?

    The Heartbleed issue is a server, not a client, issue. In short, yes, it doesn't matter what you are running to connect to a site, the issue lies in what the server has installed for SSL. But the risk is not in infecting your Mac as much as stealing your login and other information.
    This might help you to understand what is happening: http://tidbits.com/article/14662?rss&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_c ampaign=Feed%3A+tidbits_main+%28TidBITS%3A+Mac+News+for+the+Rest+of+Us%29

    how to use icloud in an android device?

    The only iCloud facility you can use is the email: you can set up your email application to access the email on an existing iCloud account (which you need a Mac or an iOS device to set up) by using the settings listed here:

  • Is there a fix for the Heartbleed bug for iMac, iPad, iPod?

    I just read an article that Google has come out with a fix for PC users to download so they will not be affected by the Heartbleed bug.  I was wondering if Apple has come out with a security fix of their own yet?

    I've searched for this on Google, but have not found anything. Can you tell me more? If they have found a solution for PC's then there is a good chance it can be made to work with Macs.

    Although the information you were given is the best available at this time, it really don't feel it adequately answered your question.
    As far as I have been able to find out, all computer users are equally impacted by this issue and there is no way to protect yourself other than to stay off of secure sites until they have told you they are safe. Don't even go onto those sites to change your password until you know that they are safe.

  • Does the SCCM updates manager use OpenSSL, and is it vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug?

    I'm 99.99% positive I know the answer, but my boss wants to know for SURE. Does the SCCM updates manager use OpenSSL, and is it vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug?
    Thank you for appeasing him.

    I must be misunderstanding something here. Would you please help me understand why this isn't answerable here? How does this have anything to do w/ our TAM? SCCM is SCCM regardless of where we got it, right? I'm quite perplexed, so thank you for
    clearing this up.
    My guess is liability. What if we're wrong? Very few people who frequent these forums are actual Microsoft employees.
    If you want a 'for sure' answer, you're best off contacting Microsoft directly IMHO.

  • PI and the Heartbleed bug

    Hi all PI experts.
    Does anyone know if we (using SAP PI) are affected by the heartbleed bug for openSSL? Or where to find information about which versions of PI that can be affected by this?
    Regards,

    Just got a reply from SAP that their Product Security Response Team are currently working on the issue and that they will publish information when they have any to give.

  • Do I need to take any action over the Heartbleed bug?

    Do I need to take any action over the Heartbleed bug?

    You can use this website test the sites, like banking sites, for protection to the Heartbeat issue: Qualys SSL Labs - Projects / SSL Server Test.
    Just enter the URL of the site and it will test it for compliance.

  • HT6162 does update cover the 'Heartbleed' bug?

    does the recent update for IOS include the open SSL fix for the heartbleed bug?

    As others have said, nothing can be fixed on your end. You need to stay off of secure sites where you post privacy information until they have told you it's safe to use. If they tell you they fixed the problem then you need to change your password then, but not before it's fixed.

  • Verizon Router & the Heartbleed bug

    Is my router's firmware up to date as per the Heartbleed bug? Apple had to update its AirPort routers firmware, so is my Verizon router secure? Anyone know or can help?
    My question stems from the CNNMoney article...
    money.cnn.com/2014/04/24/technology/security/heartbleed-security/index.html?iid=Lead
    So I figured to ask and the "Ask Verizon" auto agent is useless for questions like this. thx

    I've asked someone in-the-know at Verizon, and they have indicated the FiOS routers do not suffer from the Heartbleed bug.

  • Is Microsoft NPS affected by an equivalent of the heartbleed bug that affects free radius

    Is NPS based on a version of Open SSL and if so will there be a patch soon to mitigate against the heartbleed bug

    Thank you, and please accept my apologies, I am not technically inclined to your level and if I may broach the subject once more - I have sensitive data other than bank and email,
    Are there Registry lines or msinfo32 identifications that would disclose if I was running or have the OPENSSL - I am running x64 Win7, Nod32, use the Windows Firewall, have updated Java, use Google, and Mozilla. No programs are allowed to access the internet
    without first being given permission (pdf and word)
    And once again, I do apologize for my limited knowledge  . . . have to reboot . . . just had 11 security updates 
    OpenSSL is shipped as a standalone and portable tool, so it may be unzipped to a folder without installation, therefore msinfo and Programs and Features applet will not tell you definitely.

  • What should Mac users do about the Heartbleed bug?

    I've been reading about this new Heartbleed bug where you should change all your passwords. It seems these days that quite frequently something like this appears, and the first thing they tell you is to change all your passwords. I would just like to know from someone who knows what they are talking about how Mac devices are affected by Heartbleed. do I need to make a mad dash to change all my passwords?

    The short answer to your first question is - if you're worried, change your password. Better safe than sorry. If it's just a few sites, it shouldn't be too onerous a task, hopefully.
    Gaining access to one site does not allow an intruder to access other sites.
    When you say "log into" Youtube or Google - just to clarify:
    - If you use your web browser to go to youtube.com, and view videos, or you go to google.com, and do a search for something, technically you're not logging in. You're just visiting. This poses no risk to you.
    - However, if you go to youtube.com, or google.com, and click "Sign in", and enter a user name (usually an email address) and password, then you're logging in, and your password and other information may be at risk.
    When you visit Google, look at the very top of the screen. If you see your name there, you're signed in, and you DO have a Google account. If you don't, you're not signed in, and from what you say, you probably don't have a Google account.
    The only way that email might be affected is if you regularly access your email through the web (ie, you log onto http://comcast.net), and your mail host (Comcast) tells you that they were susceptible to Heartbleed. Accessing mail through a mail application (the Mail app on your Mac, for example) is not affected by this issue. It's really all about websites. Most applications, such as iTunes, are not affected. (I say "most" because some may have used OpenSSL to access services, or are linked to sites which use OpenSSL - such as Dropbox.)

  • How do I print from an Android device using bluetooth?

    You had purchased the Officejet Mobile 100 printer to print from your Android device using bluetooth.
    You have the devices paired with bluetooth, but do not see an option to print or the print button does not work in this case.
    Well, here is how this can be accomplished in Android.
    For this example, I will use the steps to print a photo.
    1.  Pair the devices.
    2.  Open a photo you want to print.
    3.  Select the share option (may say send using depending on the version of Android).
    4.  Select Bluetooth.
    5.  Select the printer from the list of devices.
    6.  The file will be sent to the printer.  You can check the notification area at the top to see how the progress is going.  It may take a few minutes for the sending to finish.
    7.  It should then print the photo.
    HP Bluetooth printers natively support the printing of photos only, but a third party app can be used to print documents and other items.

    Hope this information is useful.
    I know there have been many instances of users that have not been able to print through bluetooth from an Android device.
