Although it may not have been warm where you live, scientists announced Friday that 2014 was the Earth's hottest year since record-keeping began in 1880. The climate milestone was made possible in large part by exceptionally mild ocean temperatures and above-average temperatures on most continents. Remarkably, the warmth came without the assistance of an El Niño event in the tropical Pacific Ocean. These events are naturally occurring ocean and atmospheric cycles that tend to boost global temperatures. Previous El Niños have been responsible in part for the prior warmest years, such as 1998 and 2005, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The lack of an El Niño event indicates that such an event is no longer required to push the planet into a record warm year.

The biggest security debacles of 2014 show that enterprises are still failing at the basics | VentureBeat | Security | by Evan Schuman. As 2014 wraps, it’s safe to say that we have had some of the most publicized, devastating data breaches in years, including massive hacks on Target, JP Morgan Chase, and Sony. But as more details emerge about how those breaches happened, it’s becoming clear that better security software and larger IT security teams may not be the most cost-effective answer.
The way those attacks happened underscores a need to get back to security basics. These attacks were not made possible by supercomputer-powered, password-cracking, firewall-busting systems. No, they were done in by a lack of focus on security fundamentals: changing passwords, limiting or monitoring contractor access, not letting access to one area become a key to a much more sensitive area, and so on. As one board member at multiple security companies phrased it: “We’re talking ‘Washing your hands before you eat’ kind of stuff for IT security.”
Let’s drill into these three breaches and see what actually allowed the attackers in. Best Student Projects of 2014 - Udacity - Climb Higher.
