NSA chief has regrets on ISIS intelligence collection

National Security Agency (NSA) Director Adm. Mike Rogers said Thursday that his agency's collection of intelligence on the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS, also known as ISIL) could have been "stronger."

"If I'm honest with myself, I wish the transition of ISIL from an insurgency to an organization that was now focused on holding ground, territory, the mechanism of governance....in hindsight I wish we had been a little bit - I'll only speak for me and the NSA - I wish we'd been a little stronger about," he said.

Rogers, who is also the head of U.S. Cyber Command, spoke at an intelligence summit alongside Central Intelligence Agency Director John Brennan and Letitia Long, the director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.

ISIS' quick rise appeared to take the U.S. by surprise as it swept through northern Iraq, taking hold of vast amounts of territory and virtually erasing the border with Syria. Although U.S. airstrikes in Iraq helped to stem the group's expansion, the U.S. still struggles to collect enough intelligence on the group's activities.

Matt Olsen, who directs the National Counter Terrorism Center, told a House committee Wednesday that intelligence agencies have very little idea where foreign fighters go and what they do once they reach Syria, so they can't estimate how many have joined ISIS or other extremists.

Foreign fighters from the U.S. and Western Europe who have joined extremists in Syria are particularly alarming to U.S. officials because it is easy for them to re-enter their home countries without raising suspicion and carry out attacks.

Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday that stopping the flow of foreign fighters joining the ISIS will be far more important than airstrikes in the mission to stamp out the extremist group.

"The military piece is one piece. It's one component of this. It's a critical component, but it's only one component," Kerry said from Paris after meeting with representatives from 26 countries to discuss the effort.

Is Apple's iOS8 update too big for your iPhone?

APPLE'S new-generation mobile software is now available for download, but many users have hit a snag trying to install iOS 8 due to the size of the update.

iOS 8 requires at least 5.7GB of free space to be installed on most iPhone and iPad models, according to the Global News. Previous iOS updates only needed about 1GB of free space.

The free software will be pre-installed on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus - which go on sale in Australia on Friday - but that doesn't help users with an older version of iPhone.

Many of those users took to Twitter to vent their frustration with updating to the iOS 8 mobile operating system.

"just deleted about 1,000 pics so i can have enough storage for iOS8," Twitter user @jords97 wrote.

Full list of iOS 8 compatible devices:

iPhones

iPhone 4s iPhone 5 iPhone 5s iPhone 5c iPhone 6 iPhone 6 Plus

iPads iPad 2 3rd and 4th-generation iPad iPad Air iPad Mini iPad Mini with Retina display

Paragon Software Releases Hard Disk Manager 15 Preview a Complete Data Management Tool for Physical and Virtual …

FREIBURG, Germany (PRWEB UK) 18 September 2014

Paragon Software Group (PSG), a leader in data protection, backup and disaster recovery, today released a free 90-day trial of Paragon Hard Disk Manager 15 Preview, a complete data management solution with flexible physical and virtual backup formats for businesses. HDM 15 supports the right backup formats for a variety of tasks including archiving or virtualization. Unlike traditional backup methods, HDM 15 supports a wide range of virtual disk formats, making it ideal for use with virtual machines. The Connect VD (Virtual Drive) feature allows IT administrators to set the partitioning and editing of virtual data media in just the same way they would with regular physical hard disks. VD backup features now provide the full set of backup tools, including file complement, incremental backup and others.

New major features include:

The new backup technology lets users create backups directly in the form of virtual disks in the format they need (VMDK/VHD/VHDX) and, if necessary, later use the P2V Adjust Assistant feature to adapt backups for use with VMware Workstation or other virtualization software. If you create regular incremental backups, for instance, each of these increments can be used as the basis for a virtual machine at any time. No matter what youre using Oracle VirtualBox, Microsoft Hyper-V, Microsoft Virtual PC or VMware Workstation Hard Disk Manager 15 can handle the virtual disk formats these hypervisors use, and will also create backups directly in the formats you need. In addition, youll still have the full range of backup operation functions, including incremental backup, file-based backup, additional file backup, differential backup, and more. If youre focusing more on archiving and want your backup containers to take up as little storage space as possible, then the Paragon Virtual Hard Disk Format (pVHD) is the right choice for you: high compression rates and a network-friendly structure allow exceptionally efficient use of storage and speed up backup operations in the network by up to 10 times.

Availability: A free 90-day evaluation of Paragon Hard Disk Manager 15 Preview is available at http://www.paragon-software.com/landing-pages/hdm15-preview/index.html. The commercial version of Paragon Hard Disk Manager 15 is scheduled for release in fall 2014 and will offer a 30-day evaluation period.
