11p to buy.

Strangely gf seems to have plenty to say on the TERN thread on ADVFN and yet nothing on here! Similarly on the FOXT thread.

British Bulls;

TERN.L TERN
Last Signal:BUY
Last Pattern:BULLISH ENGULFING
Last Close:6.0000 Change:+0.3750 Percent change+6.67% Signal Update Our system’s recommendation today is to BUY. The BULLISH ENGULFING pattern finally received a confirmation because the prices crossed above the confirmation level which was at 5.6250, and our valid average buying price stands now at 5.6400. The previous SHORT signal was issued on 16/01/2015, 4 days ago, when the stock price was 5.4225. Since then TERN.L has risen by +4.01%.Market Outlook The bulls have strong evidence on their side and this evidence prompts us to make a bullish bet. The bullish pattern that was previously identified is finally confirmed and a BUY signal is generated. It is probably the right time to be part of this boost and bullish market sentiment. The market is telling you about a possible new profit. Do not miss this chance

goldfinger - apart from the fact that your 100 or so posts on the FLYB thread were exactly duplicated on advfn under the username mike740, these are just three examples of some other posts on advfn:

Just a few examples of exactly replicated posts and you continue to deny you post on advfn under the username mike740.


goldfinger - 15 Nov 2014 12:11 - 50340 of 55442

Proves nothing, just your silly mind over working and totaly confused.

I have around 1,200 fans on twitter under my user name there and 4,500 under a PLC thread with two mates.

Often posts are duplicated from other posters. In fact they are often re-tweeted. Advfn as a connection button to Twitter are you denying that. ???????????

Being such a high profile poster I often get this kind of thing happening.

Stop being a tw-t.

Have you got ginger hair??????????????????????????? LOL.

Lost for words then, not like you Mikey.-:)

So if goldfinger/mike740 wasn't shorting this share, why would he spend all his waking hours trying to talk it down to 2p? Perhaps someone has been paying him? Hmmm, I wonder who that might be?

Vaseline paying you, I don't think so.

Surely someone must be paying you to make an utter pratt of yourself mikey, you can't be doing it voluntarily?

cheaper for a bankrupt............

If you are paying your solicitor £605 per hour to fight all these defamation cases on ADVFN you are going to need a lotta lard. Does someone pay you to make an utter pratt of yourself or does it just come naturally?

Best thread on here , you have to admit the Lard one's funny Doodlebug !

A big fall today.

Oh dear, did you break anything Mikey? Too many Stellas I guess.

Hope Fred's not looking in gf, he'll think he's on a promise!

It's probably the only thing that keeps the old boy going - living in hope.:-))

Cryptosoft, the leader in policy driven data authentication and encryption services for connected IoT and M2M devices, has today announced its latest and to date, biggest, software release.

V3.0 of the Cryptosoft Data Centric Security Platform is available immediately.

This significant new release of the Cryptosoft Data Centric Security Platform brings a host of new functionality to add enhanced scalability, improved management capabilities and the introduction of gateway agent functionality to provide users with enhanced data processing capabilities.

“V3.0 is an important release for Cryptosoft,” says Jon Penney, Cryptosoft CTO. “Particularly exciting is the new Cryptosoft Gateway Agent created to extend Cryptosoft’s policy-driven security functionality to the ubiquitous Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).”
M2M and IoT security

Tern – after the ramp to 27p comes the Placing at 12p. But what’s this?
By Nigel Somerville, The Deputy Sheriff of AIM | Monday 10 August 2015

Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Well surprise, surprise! As expected (see HERE) AIM listed Tern plc (TERN) has announced a placing in the wake of the monumental rise in the lead-up to its Interims last week, and the explosion following chairman Angus Forrest’s mega ramp of an interview with paid-for Proactive Investors. With the shares having peaked at 27p on Thursday, the company announced a placing of shares this morning – at just 12p. One might only imagine how anyone who was sucked in to paying 27p last week might be feeling now.

As I write, the share price is down 30% today at 11p (mid) - below the placing price and not a good sign.

Of course, one cannot blame Tern for taking advantage of a strong share price so as to shore up the balance sheet. Although the Chairman’s Statement in last week’s interims noted a “healthy level of current assets” it was clear to me that the company needed to raise cash in order to meet its funding commitments to Cryptosoft whilst still being able to keep the lights on. And so now the company has brought in £720,000 before expenses (perhaps around £684,000 net). Certainly, now, the company is well enough cashed up for the time being – although suggestions of further investments on the horizon may see that change.

What is clear, however, is that the Proactive interview was just a bare-faced ramp and now we know why. Placing discounts on AIM can be steep, but this looks particularly savage. Even against the close last Friday of 15.75p (mid) a placing at 12p is a 24% haircut. Anyone who bought at 27p last Thursday has just watched a few people walk off with about 12% of the company having coughed up 56% less per share. Now they are watching people able to buy shares 59% cheaper in the market than they did.

As to the Proactive interview, it all sounded jolly exciting – as one would expect from a piece of PR puffery. Discussions with household names, members of the Fortune 500, expectations of a portfolio sale in the next six months and another in the next twelve are mentioned. Maybe.

When asked about contracts for Cryptosoft the reply was “I can’t tell you who it is talking to and signing with…” er, so there are contracts being signed? Should that not be in an RNS, then? But remember, this interview is not Nomad-approved, whereas the Interims (which were released the same day) were. The Interims referred to “major c

TERN eye opener report............MickTKipper Sun 15:07
Tern rockets on Interims and a Proactive Interview but Hargreave Hale sells again

By Nigel Somerville, The Deputy Sheriff of AIM | Sunday 9 August 2015

Phew - what a ride! One moment share of Tern plc (TERN) are drifting at around 6.5p a share and then in the blink of an eye they have rocketed to 15.75p, having peaked at a whopping 27p. Ahead of Wednesday’s interims which showed a balance sheet of just £1.2 million, the Tern rocket had ascended to about 15p a share to value the company at around £7 million. They slipped a little on release of the RNS before a paid-for interview with company chairman Angus Forrest on Proactive Investors ignited the booster rockets and off we went again, up into the clear blue skies above, notching up a peak of 27p (market cap £12.3 million), and a four-fold re-rating. Post-excitement slippage then saw the shares close a wild week at 15.75p, a market cap of £7.2 million. What was all the excitement about?

Of course, this is all about investee company Cryptosoft which has recently appointed Mr Darron Anthill as CEO. We have had news of a tie-up with ThingWorx (although no financials have been released) after Cryptosoft’s newly improved security platform had been formally launched. Mind you, for all the fireworks of last week, Cryptosoft remains pre-revenue. Tern has announced funding of £700,000 in total to fund the jewel in its crown although the actual funding delivered thus far looks to be of the order of £375,000. Never mind all that, Tern appears to be the talk of the town down at bulletin board central, where commercial success for Cryptosoft seems to be a given. I think that is a dangerous assumption to make.

Tom Winnifrith has highlighted the current penchant of the market for giving sky-high valuations to pre-revenue technology companies. I would suggest that Tern is a case in point. Its interim balance sheet showed net assets of £1.2 million. First half revenues of £60,000 are recorded, although this looks to have got only as far as the receivables column rather than cash in the bank. It would also appear that these revenues are simply fees and charges levied by Tern on its investee company, Cryptosoft, paid for out of the cash that Tern is investing into it. Out of approx. £375,000 pumped into Cryptosoft since last autumn, it seems that £96,000 has been booked back out again in fees. All a bit of a merry-go-round, but which conveniently swells Tern’s balance sheet.

At the peak, this investment company with a £1.2 million balance sheet was somehow worth £12.3 million. In fact £300,000 of convertible director loans which are expected to be converted in due course at 1.25p (£270,000) into 21.6 million shares, and 2.016p (£30,000) into c. 1.5 million shares on top of the now existing c. 45 million shares. That would imply a resulting balance sheet of about £1.5 million and a pea

Worth noting last weeks comments from Cisco CEO that he is preparing to go on a cybersecurity acquisition spree and that he sees this space as the fastest growing sector in the world.

'The new CEO stated that he sees a strong future ahead in the area of cybersecurity, an area that Cramer considers to be the fastest growing group of any business on Earth. The CEO considers cybersecurity to be a top priority in the face of a world that is connecting everything.
He anticipates that every customer and every company will connect to everything, which will require a network, Cisco's specialty. He said it will also require the network to become a security center.'

Singapore bolsters SingPass defences after security breaches

SINGAPORE -- The Singaporean government has renewed the management system for its SingPass accounts, which are used for accessing online administrative services, in an effort to enhance security in the face of an increase in the number of serious breaches.

Singaporeans can apply for public housing via online administrative services using SingPass.

A new two-step authentication system has been introduced to bolster the 12-year-old system's defence against cybercrimes, such as theft of personal information and phishing scams. The move is a response to the proliferation of such crimes, which pose a growing security threat.

About 3 million people, including foreign residents, or nearly 60 per cent of the city-state's population, have SingPass accounts, where 60 government agencies offer access to over 200 online services through one account.

Residents can electronically connect to a wide range of government services, such as filing income tax, applying for public housing and checking account balances at the Central Provident Fund, which is Singapore's social security savings plan.

Hackers paradise good for TERN

SUNDAY MAIL = 23 August 2015
Thousands exposed in massive new data hack: It's not just adulterers outed on web - if YOU own a PC hard drive you are at risk from the 'Google for hackers'
Photographs, medical records and bank statements are all downloadable
Due to glaring security flaws in hard drives used to back up and store data
The website, called Shodan, also has confidential files of a High St law firm
It comes after hackers exposed names of people using Ashley Madison site

Thousands of Britons have been made vulnerable to cyber crime after the secret contents of their computers were exposed on the internet by a vast website dubbed the ‘Google for hackers’.

Family photographs, medical records and bank statements can all be easily downloaded from the site because of glaring security flaws in hard drives used to back up and store personal and business data, a Mail on Sunday investigation has found.
Highly confidential files belonging to a High Street law firm were also freely available on the website, called Shodan, including full details of their clients’ financial affairs, passports and driving licences.

Hack: Thousands have been made vulnerable to cyber crime after the secret contents of their computers were exposed on the internet by a vast website dubbed the ‘Google for hackers’

Hack: Thousands have been made vulnerable to cyber crime after the secret contents of their computers were exposed on the internet by a vast website dubbed the ‘Google for hackers’
Last night, security experts said millions more British companies and internet users are also at risk of being hacked because the US-based Shodan website provides crucial information about their web-connected devices.
Even private servers run by the world’s biggest and most expensive science lab, CERN, can be viewed and potentially tampered with.
The revelations come just days after hackers dumped online the names, email addresses and sexual preferences of millions using affairs website Ashley Madison.

Following our investigation, consumers are being urged to check all PCs and gadgets have the latest software updates and are not relying on easy-to-guess passwords.
Professor Tim Watson, director of the Cyber Security Centre at the University of Warwick, said: ‘What Shodan does is shine a light on some of the more insecure aspects of this new interconnected world.
‘We are buying kit connected by default to the internet, because we love the fact we can use it anywhere. But this comes at a price – we’re buying these features but we’re not buying security.’

Access: The Shodan (logo, left) website, founded by John Matherly (right) gives entry to millions of private computer devices worldwide
The personal files are all publicly visible because the Shodan website trawls the world looking for all open connections to the internet.
It has found details worldwide of more than 100 million computers, smart phones, web cameras and even building control systems like air conditioning units. An estimated 11 million of these are in the UK.

Shodan can identify the rough physical location of each piece of equipment, a unique identifying number known as an IP address, and often what type of software is powering it. This in itself is a boon to hackers because it gives them enough information to carry out a targeted attack, experts say.
‘Shodan is basically a Google for hackers,’ said Henry Dalziel from cyber security training firm Concise Courses.

Shodan also looks for devices that either have no password protection or are guarded by obvious default settings like ‘admin’ or ‘1234’.
It identified a particular problem with external hard drives made by a company called Iomega, since taken over by Lenovo, used by thousands of families to provide extra space for their treasured photo collections or to back-up important documents.

As many as 20,000 of these storage devices worldwide can be viewed on Shodan, 1,600 of them in the UK, simply by searching for the term ‘Iomega’. Most do not have any password protection. In two cases, the MoS spoke to victims whose hard drives were hacked despite setting up unique passwords.
Within minutes of the MoS signing up to the site – which is free to join for a limited number of searches but costs $49 (£31) for full membership – we were able to look at the folders stored on these machines.

Because most files contained the names and addresses of their owners, as well as more confidential information such as medical records and credit card statements, we were able to track them down to warn them of their exposure to cyber fraud and ID theft.
We took care only to look for enough information to allow us to contact the drives’ owners.

A family in Oxfordshire were shocked to find their bank account details, medical documents, insurance information, passwords and photos were available for hackers.
Maxine, 39, and Helen, 43, who are in a civil partnership, were staggered to learn the Iomega hard drive they bought two years ago to keep personal information safe had left them exposed on Shodan, despite a unique password.
The couple, who have a nine-year-old girl and a six-year-old boy, immediately disconnected the drive.

‘I’m more concerned about the fact it’s got our children’s names on it,’ said Maxine. ‘It’s got stuff about how we went about having children and things like that.
‘We felt like we’d made an educated and informed choice. It won’t ever be the same again.’
Father-of-two Hars Member, from West London, said he was considering taking legal action after discovering that his family’s private details were also exposed on Shodan.
Mr Member, 50, who runs an online eBay business selling cosmetic products, unplugged his machine after learning the private details of his wife, son and daughter were vulnerable.

‘Anyone can do anything to me,’ he said. ‘All the family’s details are on there. It’s really scary for me. It’s unbelievable.’
Victims include two tech-savvy women who specifically bought their Iomega Home Media Network hard drive – model number HMND2 – because they believed it was the safest way to store family records.

By searching Shodan for unprotected devices in Glasgow, we discovered a hard drive containing the business files of a solicitors’ firm.Folder titles included ‘cash’, ‘clients’, ‘powers of attorney’ and ‘money laundering’, with the individual files giving full details on everything from house purchases to visa letters and even customers’ passports.

One of the main folders was titled ‘MacKaur documents’ while others gave the names of the two partners and a secretary working for a Scottish law firm called MacRae & Kaur. But it denied its data had been leaked.

The firm’s lawyer said: ‘Those I represent have clarified with their IT support organisation that the computer system they employ, in particular that which deals with the storing of data securely is lawful and in accordance with legal requirements as a law firm practising in Scotland.’

A MoS investigation last year revealed how a website was broadcasting live security camera footage from inside homes, offices and shops across Britain on the internet.
Hard drive manufacturer Lenovo admitted there had been a problem with some of its devices’ folders being available online but said new products no longer have this flaw, while existing customers have been able to download a security update since last year.

A spokesman said: ‘Lenovo addressed these concerns in 2014 whereby new devices did not have this problem and a fix was made available to existing customers.’ But it refused to say if all hard drive owners had been made aware of the security breach.

As well as downloading the latest software updates, the Information Commissioner’s Office, Britain’s data watchdog, urged computer users to check their passwords.
A spokesman said: ‘The first security step anyone should take when getting any new device, is to set a strong password.

‘The default passwords many manufacturers use are freely available online so it’s important to get these simple passwords changed.
‘If the device doesn’t have a password, then as a bare minimum, you should set one up, making sure it’s not one that can be easily guessed.’

Shodan’s American founder John Matherly, 31, defended his site’s service, although he admitted some individuals had been banned for abusing it.
‘I don’t believe in shooting the messenger. Shodan is the right answer to the problem,’ he said.

‘People should be upset that the product they purchased didn’t provide better safeguards to protect their data and prevent it from being leaked on the internet.
‘The way we fix these insecure-by-default devices is by raising awareness so consumers demand change from companies.’

unchanged so far

on a day like today where the Market is down by 3% MMs are not in a hurry to push prices up despite, buyers are well ahead of sellers

But at one point the book will have to be filled again with stock, and the prices will have to move forward in order to encourage sellers

so far I take buyers for 600K v sells of 169K
the last 50K delayed was a buy

17.50p = finished unchanged,
despite the attempts by MMs of shaking the stock, when there was a clear signal of double the buys v sells from 11am till close

the ticker shows at the end
buys 803,312k
sells 400,987K

Market Makers must fill their books at one point, cuz they must be short by now, so the only way is upping the bid tomorrow

RE: double buying today

The same is happening today Tuesday but at least they let the share price go up as I was expecting now 19.25p +1.75p

Warning to private data posters: Deleted information never actually goes away

NEW YORK — The Ashley Madison hack is a big reminder to all Web users: If you submit private data online, chances are it will never fully be deleted.
The hackers, who stole the data about a month ago and then posted it online this week, claimed in a statement that part of the reason for the theft was Ashley Madison's fraudulent promise to fully delete users' information if they paid the company a $19 fee.
The website — whose slogan is "Life is short. Have an affair" — is marketed to people looking for extramarital relationships. It purports to have about 39 million members.
The hackers said the company failed to delete the information, even though it collected the fees. Toronto-based Avid Life Media Inc., Ashley Madison's parent company, hasn't commented on the hackers' accusation. A company spokesman didn't respond to multiple emails seeking comment.

It's virtually impossible to exist in modern society without putting at least some personal information online. Many people can't get through a day without using the Internet to shop, pay a bill, or check their credit card balance.
Who is "The King of Infidelity"? CEO of cheating website says he's faithful husband
Touting himself as the "The King of Infidelity," the founder of the adultery site Ashley Madison built his livelihood around the unconventional philosophy that cheating is a natural part of married life — yet he says he is a devoted husband, and his wife of 12 years says she would be devastated if he was unfaithful.

Noel and Amanda Biderman say they do not practice what they preach but simply are smart entrepreneurs seizing an untapped market.
"I am printing money, I don't deny it," Biderman told the New York Daily News in 2014. "That's what happens when you build a taboo-focused business."
Their privately held Toronto holding company, Avid Life Media Inc., grossed $115 million in earnings last year, according to tax documents and figures shared by Biderman with Forbes.
Now divorce lawyers are preparing for a potential bonanza from the site's massive breach that released the information of its subscribers.

It's a problem the Bidermans say they have never had to confront because they are in a monogamous relationship, but they recognize others do not have that and there is money to be made from infidelity.
The couple, who have two children, say there's nothing wrong in running a site that allows married people who want to cheat to connect with others seeking an affair. Users pay a fee each time they send a message to a potential lover.

They turned down a request by The Associated Press to be interviewed for this story but have spent years appearing on TV talk shows and making other media appearances to promote their site.
The company says in a statement the hackers should be judged, not Ashley Madison and its roughly 39 million customers. The hackers have accused the company of filling the site with fake profiles and extorting fees for wiping profiles that were never truly deleted.

The company has said it is working on beefing up its security protocol.
Before you "submit" ...
People have become accustomed to trusting their most precious personal information to companies. But they also need to know that all of that information is being shared more than they would expect, privacy experts say.

Before you hit "submit," stop and think before giving up your personal information to any kind of website, said Michael Kaiser, executive director of the National Cyber Security Alliance, an industry-funded group that educates consumers about cybersecurity.
"Personal information is like money, and you don't just give away your money," Kaiser says. "In the environment we're in right now, you have to value it and think about protecting it everywhere you go on the Internet."

That means taking a look at a website's business to get an idea of how much they value information security and even asking them about their data retention practices. Banks, which deal in financial information, and large retailers, who have a vested interest in getting people to shop online, are probably safer bets than a dating site.
"Ashley Madison actually charges you to remove your information when you remove your account," he says. "That's a big clue about how they feel about your personal information."

People also need to sometimes take a pass on convenience in the name of online security.
Many consumers like it when e-commerce sites have their credit card and other information on file, or when Web browsers automatically fill in forms with their name, address and other details, says Peter Tyrrell, chief operating officer of the data security firm Digital Guardian. Meanwhile, worries about data theft and loss have prompted companies to back up important information in multiple places.

But both practices increase the likelihood that information could be leaked or shared. And it means that even when a person thinks that their information has been permanently deleted, chances are there are still copies floating around somewhere.
"Ashley Madison is a company with a service that's completely predicated on privacy," Tyrrell says, adding that that characteristic sets it apart from many traditional e-commerce sites such as retailers.
"Here the capital, so to speak, isn't a credit card or consumer goods. The capital is personal information that if released could be ruinous personally, and financially too."

Breaches, whether they be at a major retailer such as Target Corp., a health insurance company such as Anthem Inc., or Ashley Madison, have become so common that people should give some serious thought before putting personal information online, says Caleb Barlow, a vice president at IBM's security division.
And while Social Security numbers weren't involved Ashley Madison hack, people should be especially wary of using them as a backup password to access online information, given the potentially disastrous consequences that could result if they're intercepted, he says.
"Why are we using Social Security Numbers for both identification and access?" he questions. "Any data that can never be changed can be used for identity, but should never be used for access."

And no matter how legitimate a company or website may be, people need to be aware that they're rolling the dice every time they hand over personal information.
Scott Vernick, partner and head of the data security and privacy practice at the law firm Fox Rothschild LLP, says consumers have the right to expect a certain level of online security, depending on the industry standards of the company they're dealing with.
"But those expectations have to be muted by the knowledge that they're always taking a risk, whether they're ordering from Amazon Prime or from Ashley Madison," Vernick says.

INSIGHT: Security in the Internet of Things age - Makers vs. Operators

Internet of Things (IoT) security is a hot topic among security and risk professionals.
25 August, 2015

Internet of Things (IoT) security is a hot topic among security and risk professionals. It seems as if every "thing" on the market is becoming smarter and more interactive.

As the level of IoT device maturity increases so does the level of risk of data and device compromise. The scary thing is that we really have no idea what IoT devices are in our environment let alone the correct way to secure them.

Http://www.computerworld.co.nz/article/582852/insight-security-internet-things-age-makers-vs-operators/?fp=16&fpid=1

WEEKLY

What makes Cryptosoft unique is its ability to scale and handle encryption tasks as a service process while interfacing seamlessly with the world’s leading key management, security policy and DLP platforms including those from PGP, Symantec and others.

“Our customers already have security infrastructure in place and are loathed to have to rip and replace perfectly adequate tools just to add encryption,” explains Penney, “So we have spent considerable effort in ensuring that Cryptosoft integrates with existing management platforms so encryption becomes an added service without impacting on workflow, security management or audited processes.”

For hosting and cloud service providers encryption offers the potential to allay many of the security concerns expressed by customers. However, traditional monolithic approaches are expensive, have problems scaling and are often difficult to implement in a shared environment.

“We built Cryptosoft with the express goal that it can scale so it has full support for virtual servers and load balancing capability,” explains CTO Carl Bourne. “But it is essential from an operational security standpoint that the critical cryptographic keys are still held by the client and not the service provider – this distinction is vital to meet the security requirement for many organisations and this separation between security policy handling, key management and the underlying encryption engine makes Cryptosoft a unique solution.”

Lizard Squad hackers attack National Crime Agency site

Hackers have targeted the website of the National Crime Agency (NCA), the department set up to tackle organised crime, in an apparent revenge attack.
A Twitter account linked to the hacking group Lizard Squad appears to have claimed responsibility.

The NCA's site was inaccessible for some time on Tuesday morning.
The attack comes days after six teenagers were arrested by the NCA for using a service known as Lizard Stresser.

The 15 to 18-year-olds are believed to have targeted organisations including a national newspaper, a school, gaming companies and some online retailers.
It appears the NCA website was taken down in a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, where websites or servers are flooded with requests for data.

A spokesman for the National Crime Agency said its website was an "attractive target" and attacks are "a fact of life".
He said: "DDoS is a blunt form of attack which takes volume and not skill.

"It isn't a security breach, and it doesn't affect our operational capability.
"At worst, it is a temporary inconvenience to users of our website."
XBox and PlayStation attacks
Lizard Stresser is a tool which allows people to pay a fee to nominate a website they would like to be targeted by a DDoS attack.

It became popular after Lizard Squad took responsibility for several high-profile attacks.
The group claimed to have taken XBox and PlayStation gaming networks offline last Christmas.

Playstation & Xbox Hackings
None of the teenagers in these recent arrests are accused of involvement in those attacks or believed to be members of Lizard Squad.
The National Crime Agency said they are suspected of deploying Lizard Stresser, having bought it using services such as Bitcoin in an attempt to stay anonymous.

The targets haven't been named and it hasn't been confirmed whether the attempted DDoS attacks were successful.
As part of the same operation, officers are visiting around 50 addresses linked to people who are registered on the Lizard Stresser website - but who are not suspected of involvement in attacks.

Zac Mir has a 38p target.

Article on front page of Tech Track 100 in the Sunday Times today has an extract;

"Tech firms are thriving but face a big headache fighting cybercrime"

Within the report it states that 81% of large businesses and 60% of small businesses suffered a cyber attack in the last year.

Now the article goes on to talk about Cybercrime Insurance as if that were the answer but I think that insurance companies will insure but ask companies to have certain products in place.

Is Tern PLC Heading To Zero? - By Motley Fool | Tue, 8th September 2015 - 12:57

Tern (LSE:TERN) invests in established, private software companies that operate in fast growing technology sectors and the company has become one of AIM's hottest stocks over the past few months.

Since the beginning of June Tern's share price has jumped by 170%, outperforming the wider FTSE AIM All-Share and AIM 100 indexes by more than 160%.

However, the company is shrouded in controversy, has a weak balance sheet and is still loss-making. What's more, according to my figures, after the company's recent placing Tern's book value or shareholder equity is around £1.5m, approximately 2.8p per share. So, the company is current trading at a price to book ratio of 7.9 -- a premium valuation for a loss-making company.

That being said, as an investment company, much of Tern's value is tied up in the company's investment portfolio.

Portfolio analysis
Tern's most significant investment is Cryptosoft. The company owns 100% of Cryptosoft, and this one investment accounts for 95% of Tern's potential portfolio return.

Tern's other investments are Flexian, Push Technology and Seal Software. The company owns between 1% and 0.5% of each of these businesses.

At the end of June, Tern valued its investment portfolio at £707k and since reporting this figure, the company has gone on to raise £720k before expenses through a placing of 6m new shares at 12p each. Management has stated that the cash will be used to provide additional finance for the existing portfolio, with the development of Cryptosoft being a top priority.

And according to Tern's press releases, Cryptosoft's product offering is already attracting significant interest. The company claims to be the only supplier with a peer-reviewed, market-proven software security product, for Internet of Things and Machine-to-Machine applications. Moreover, Cryptosoft is in the process of discussing major contract opportunities with potential UK and US customers.

However, Tern's management has warned that it may take several months before the first of these contracts is secured and revenues materialize.

Risky business
Even though Cryptosoft, Tern's largest investment, claims to have a one-of-a-kind product, there's nothing to stop competitors muscling in on the company's target market while it tries to secure contracts. The tech sector is notoriously competitive and firms need to have deep pockets to fend off the competition.

Unfortunately, Tern is strapped for cash. While the company may have just replenished its cash reserves via a placing, £720k before expenses is unlikely to be enough to help Cryptosoft repel larger competitors. With this being the case, I wouldn't rule out additional fundraisings and shareholder dilution in the near-future as Tern ploughs cash into its Cryptosoft subsidiary.

The bottom line
All in all, Tern should be viewed as a binary bet. If the company's Cryptosoft subsidiary makes it to the big time, the sky is the limit for Tern's shares. However, if Cryptosoft can't compete with its larger peers, Tern will struggle to survive

Blue Sky Potential -- Saturday 19 September 2015

Tern invests in established, private software companies and its significant investment is Cryptosoft, the only supplier with a market-proven software security product, for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications.

According to Beecham Research, security is now the leading concern for users of M2M devices and the size of the market for security products is exploding. Based on the current rate of growth, the M2M security market will be worth $700m by 2018. Tern’s market cap is only £11m at time of writing, so even if Cryptosoft can grab only a tiny share of the M2M market, Tern could be set for the big time.

Tern updates on settlement of legal action

Tern Plc has succeeded in a claim that was outstanding prior to its reorganisation in August 2013. Tern has received payment of its claim in full of £37,500 and awaits finalisation and payment of the legal costs and expenses it incurred in prosecuting this recovery.

The settlement will be accounted for as an extraordinary credit in the accounts of Tern.

United Nations Partners with Tech Firms for Increased Internet Security in Developing Countries

Cryptosoft, a UK-based information security company, has announced a partnership with the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), a United Nations agency to establish increased global Internet security standards focused on the Internet of Things (IoT). The alliance with the ITU, will focus on education and training in countries with less resources.

Santiago, Chile, October 13, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Cryptosoft, a UK-based information security company, has announced a partnership with the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), a United Nations agency to establish increased global Internet security standards focused on the Internet of Things (IoT). The alliance with the ITU, will focus on education and training in countries with less resources.

“Developing countries are adopting IoT technologies at a very fast pace; securing these connections will help ensure improved global cyber security,” says Ryan Johnson, founder of Neo Globe Consulting, the technology consulting group facilitating the partnership.

Neo Globe will help jumpstart joint projects to equip global governments and telecom companies utilizing Cryptosoft’s security expertise. One possible project is the world’s most in-depth Internet of Things (IoT) cyber security profile and readiness survey. Another includes preparing cryptography-focused training labs for national cyber defense teams in developing countries.

“With the influx of Internet-connected devices impacting our daily lives, it’s crucial that security standards are put into practice,” says Al Sisto, the Chairman at Cryptosoft. “Users should feel at ease that their personal data is safe, no matter where in the world they live.”

Cryptosoft has joined the ITU as Associates, particularly to work with ITU-S, the organization that sets telecom standards, and ITU-D, to help find ways to use information and communications technologies (ICT) for social, economic and human development. Cryptosoft CTO, Jon Penney, will be representing the company at the ITU Internet of Things Forum on 19th October.

Cryptosoft focuses on creating trust in IoT transactions through safe connections between machines. This is called machine-to-machine, or M2M communication, and is the basis of how Internet-connected devices share information. Some examples of M2M might include a smart watch communicating health data to an insurance provider. Or a connected refrigerator might automatically order food through an online grocery store.

“All industries—from energy to banking to retail—are being impacted by the Internet of Things” says Johnson. “Privacy and security are major concerns, which is why partnerships like ITU and Cryptosoft are so critical.”

The ITU is a 150-year-old organization that helps set standards for telecommunications technologies and supports development of telecoms in underdeveloped countries. ITU, based in Geneva, Switzerland, is a member of the United Nations Development Group. ITU’s membership includes 193 Member States and around 700 public and private sector companies as well as international and regional telecommunication groups.

Nice to see Tern on the Turn again so far this morning! Happy Day's !

I was expecting the continuation of the share price appreciation this morning after the various news and the end of the day strong buying

KEEP an EYE
TER 12.25p ( 12/12.50)

Despite the marked down this morning , the buys are looking strong and the trend on the chart is on the way up from here, on what it looks a double bottom on the Friday's intraday chart

Yesterday's chart

Has been kept down so far despite now the buys out placing the sells almost 2 to 1
there is the chance of a delayed sell but looking at the Level 2 of movements by the MMs it shows the marked down was always the the sells of 20K or 25K all shown on the ticker.
the only explanation so far is when is at lows they keep it this way until is large volume and then there is a big turn around.
The movement up soon to be realised by the look of it.

Finally has gone blue, it took a lot of hard work on my part I must say, but finally I got the message to the TERN buyers and is not even lunch time
what a turn around for the stock

Another of mentors gems , didn't know you could move markets like that .

did you not know what an influential chap he was?
the market makers, institutional investors and those of similar ilk hang on his every word

The JOKE is on YOU fools now 13.50p +1.25p UP since posted here but 12.125p when started my post

Even a blind man did buy
and some of my followers, one of them did a roll over ( LOL )
they did even send me their private massage of did so with the amount and saying a fool on MAM got stuck with another ( maybe was feeling lonely )

re - buying
not here, only the fools do post of their Jealousy , they love to read my post and try to find a good part into. but they never managed to tell when they buy at what price and the reason why, mind you managing to get a share price on the move. You better book a private tittution, don't forget to bring the fools head with you.

Now the reason of my hard work on the threads that I went to
I went around and around different webs and no one was talking about the TURN on TERN.
But I did and gave the reason for and even had a chart prepare the day before.


note -
Jealousy is an emotion, and the word typically refers to the thoughts and feelings of insecurity, fear, concern and anxiety over an anticipated loss or status of something of great personal value, particularly in reference to a human connection.

Britain to build cyber attack forces to tackle IS, hackers
Tue, 17th Nov 2015 14:53

* UK warns Islamic State trying to attack infrastructure
* Plans to double spending on cyber security
* Osborne says UK will hit back if attacked (Recasts, adds details)
By Michael Holden

CHELTENHAM, England, Nov 17 (Reuters) - British spies are building elite cyber offensive forces to strike at Islamic State fighters, hackers and hostile powers, finance minister George Osborne said on Tuesday after warning militants wanted to launch deadly digital attacks.

Islamic State was trying to develop the capability to attack British infrastructure such as hospitals, power networks and air traffic control systems with potentially lethal consequences, Osborne said.

In response, Britain will bolster spending on cyber defences, simplify its state cyber structures and build its own offensive cyber capability to attack adversaries.

"We will defend ourselves. But we will also take the fight to you," Osborne, Britain's second most powerful politician after Prime Minister David Cameron, said in a speech at Britain's GCHQ eavesdropping agency.

"We are building our own offensive cyber capability - a dedicated ability to counter-attack in cyberspace. When we talk about tackling (Islamic State), that means tackling their cyber threat as well as their guns, bombs and knives."

Britain's new cyber attack forces will be run jointly between GCHQ and the Defence Ministry and will target individual hackers, criminal gangs, militant groups and hostile powers, using a "full spectrum" of actions, Osborne said.

GCHQ traces its history back to World War One signals intelligence with Winston Churchill as its founder and once reported to the MI6 foreign intelligence service but has since gained significant influence as one of the world's pre-eminent eavesdropping agencies.

One of the most secret spy agencies in the world, its existence was only officially recognised legally by Britain in the 1990s.

After last Friday's Paris attacks, which killed at least 129 people and were claimed by Islamic State, Britain said it would boost staff at its domestic MI5 security service, MI6 and GCHQ by about 15 percent.

Osborne said public spending on cyber security would be almost doubled to a total of 1.9 billion pounds ($2.9 billion)over the period to 2020, saying the decision to ramp up cyber defence funding had been taken before Friday's bloodshed in Paris.

Islamic State was already using the internet for propaganda, to radicalise people and for planning purposes, he added

"They have not been able to use it to kill people yet by attacking our infrastructure through cyber attack," he said. "But we know they want it and are doing their best to build it.

GCHQ was currently monitoring cyber threats against 450 companies in aerospace, finance defence, energy and telecoms sectors, while the number of cyber national security incidents had doubled to 200 a month since last year, he said.

A new national cyber security plan drawn up by the government would feature a dedicated force to ensure faster and more effective responses to major online attacks. The force would be based at GCHQ in Cheltenham, southwest England.

Other elements of the plan included possible cooperation between internet service providers, with help from the government, to fend off malware attacks and block bad addresses used against British internet users, as well as a new institute to train coders, Osborne said.

British broadband provider TalkTalk suffered a cyber attack in October which affected 157,000 customers. This month, Britain and U.S. authorities carried out a drill with leading banks to test their response to a cyber incident in the financial sector.

"The experience in the last month of TalkTalk shows how cyber attack can suddenly go from a theoretical risk to a massive business cost," Osborne said.

Bullish Charting all the way

Tern PLC forms bullish "Continuation Wedge" chart pattern
Nov 20, 2015

Recognia has detected a "Continuation Wedge (Bullish)" chart pattern formed on Tern PLC (TERN:LSE). This bullish signal indicates that the stock price may rise from the close of 13.09 to the range of 29.00 - 32.00. The pattern formed over 56 days which is roughly the period of time in which the target price range may be achieved, according to standard principles of technical analysis.

Tells Me: After a temporary interruption, the prior uptrend is set to continue. A Continuation Wedge (Bullish) represents a temporary interruption to an uptrend, taking the shape of two converging trendlines both slanted downward against the trend. During this time the bears attempt to win over the bulls, but in the end the bulls triumph as the break above the upper trendline signals a continuation of the prior uptrend.

From British Bulls, closing last Friday

DEFINITION of 'Bullish Harami'
A candlestick chart pattern in which a large candlestick is followed by a smaller candlestick whose body is located within the vertical range of the larger body. In terms of candlestick colors, the bullish harami is a downtrend of negative-colored (black) candlesticks engulfing a small positive (white) candlestick, giving a sign of a reversal of the downward trend.

Spy chief warns of cyber attack threat from Russia
By Peter Dominiczak, political editor Ben Farmer - 1 NOVEMBER 2016 • 12:35AM

Russia is being "increasingly aggressive" and is willing to use "propaganda, espionage, subversion and cyber-attacks" against countries including the UK, the head of MI5 has said.

In comments made in the first ever newspaper interview given by a serving MI5 boss in the 107 years since the security agency was founded, Andrew Parker said that although the fight against Isil could last a generation, it is vital not to ignore the growing threat from Russia.

Mr Parker's comments came in an interview with the Guardian, which could prompt criticism given his previously criticism of the newspaper for publishing the leak by CIA spy Edward Snowden of thousands of GCHQ files.

In the interview, Mr Parker warned that Russia is "at work" in the UK..............

IoT interoperability: Where it stands and what comes next

The Allseen Alliance earlier this month merged with the Open Connectivity Foundation with plans to operate under the OCF name in working towards interoperability in the “internet of things” market through open source software frameworks and standards. IoT interoperability is a hot topic at conferences around the world, with the forecast billions of forthcoming IoT devices expected to be reliant on their ability to connect with each other in order to garner the most benefit, even in an industrial setting.

Art Lancaster, CTO of Affinegy, told Industrial IoT 5G there has been progress in different verticals, but the growth opportunity of IoT needs to be sped up with a broad base of IoT interoperability using a consortium framework of many different companies.....

TECH TRADER DAILY ARM, Armed with Softbank Money, Goes After Everything, Says Canaccord

ARM Holdings has new capital from its parent SoftBank to spend money on all sorts of computing markets, says Canaccord Genuity's Matt Ramsay, which could be trouble for Intel in markets such as Internet of Things and "edge computing."
ByTiernan Ray Updated July 11, 2017 12:26 a.m. ET

"In the area of Internet of Things, "ARM’s ecosystem will likely completely own the IoT market long term,” he believes, "lending support for chip vendors including Qualcomm/NXP, Texas Instruments, Microchip, Cypress, Silicon Labs and many others and increased IoT challenges for other architectures including Intel’s x86."
