The owner of the Los Angeles Times, following a recent management
shakeup, will still bid for the Register and The Press-Enterprise,
Tribune Publishing’s new chief executive said Wednesday.
CEO
Justin Dearborn told analysts on a conference call that the company
still is actively working on a bid for the assets of Freedom
Communications, which filed for bankruptcy protection in November.
Freedom’s two newspapers and related assets will be sold in a
court-supervised auction this month. But Dearborn noted that “there is a
price where we would walk away” from the Freedom bidding.
Dearborn,
a former health care industry executive, became Tribune CEO last week,
replacing Jack Griffin, who was ousted in a boardroom coup orchestrated
by Chicago investor Michael Ferro

Just Days Before Apple’s Big Event, CEO Tim Cook Talks iCloud Security
Greetings from Mobile Generated News® MoGN!
Next Tuesday, September 9, 2014, is expected to be the most significant Apple event of the Tim Cook era at Apple.
In a rare interview about iCloud security, the Apple CEO addressed concerns following the celebrity nude photo leak of last weekend. According to the Wall Street Journal, Tim Cook said the company will increase security on iCloud. He repeated the statement released earlier this week that the attacks were targeted toward specific individuals. The hackers were able to use various methods to guess those specific passwords. It was not a widespread hack of iCloud.
As a response to the attacks, Apple plans to have new security updates to its iCloud and iTunes login system within two weeks. The updates will notify users directly on their devices whenever someone tries to access their account from a new, unregistered device or tries to change a password. Currently, users were only sent an email.
Additionally, Apple will make improvements to its 2-step authentication security system that requires users to input a second code sent to another registered device in order to access an iTunes account. The 2-step authentication will apply to iCloud when Apple releases iOS 8, its new mobile operating system for iPhones and iPads, in a few weeks.
As we have said here in this blog before, users of wireless technology need to think before they share sensitive material to the Internet or cloud based service. Given the celebrity photo incident and the reports of Home Depot, Morgan Stanley, Target and other company’s credit card security breaches of late, we all must take action!
