Transcend Information, Inc. “Transcend”, a leading manufacturer of storage and multimedia products, has announced the launch of the StoreJet 25C3, an extra-slim portable hard drive with luxury aluminum alloy housing.

Featuring a slim and light design with a USB 3.0 interface for blazing-fast transfer rates, the StoreJet 25C3 portable hard drive perfectly integrates style and technology.

Extra Slim and Lightweight, High Capacity
Transcend’s StoreJet 25C3 portable hard drive is extra slim at just 9.95mm, capable of fitting inside a shirt pocket.

Housed in an aluminum alloy casing, the drive weighs in at just 136g, making it ideal for business or travel.

Despite its slim dimensions, the StoreJet 25C3 is available in high capacities of up to 2TB, allowing users to store and backup all of their files to a single location.

Luxury Aluminum, Blazing Fast
The StoreJet 25C3 portable hard drive’s sleek aluminum design reflects users’ good taste and complements their other tech devices. Its matte grey finish and chamfered metallic edges demonstrate an understated luxury. The solid build quality combined with subdued styling projects confidence and reliability.

In addition to its good looks, the StoreJet 25C3 is fast too, as it is equipped with a USB 3.0 interface and has transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps.

Value-Added Transcend Elite Software: Optimize Data Management
Transcend Elite is a proprietary application available for both Mac OS X and Windows to optimize data management. Users can download the software from Transcend’s website for free. Transcend Elite’s useful features include: backup and restore, data encryption, and Dropbox/Google Drive data synchronization.

Warranty
Transcend’s StoreJet 25C3 portable hard drive is offered in 1TB and 2TB capacities and backed by Transcend’s Three-year Limited Warranty.

Transcend Introduces USB Type-C
Wilson Chen, account manager, North and West Africa Division (Transcend) in an email to our correspondent also introduced the new generation USB connector – USB Type-C described as a hardware change, rather than an interface standard change (like from USB 2.0 to USB 3.0).

Type-C devices are easy to insert, being reversible.
“The symmetrical oval plug, he said, “will replace Type A and B, respectively the rectangular plug found on such things as thumb drives, and that found to connect to power-drawing devices, like cell phones”.

In addition to the capabilities of power charging at up to 100 watts and video output (HDMI/ VGA/ DisplayPort), USB Type-C has two other distinct features that are different from USB Type-A and Type-B connectors.

Orientation and flexibility
First, USB Type-A and Type-B are non-reversible, meaning time wasted ensuring a correct plug-in. Second, they cannot be used cross-platform. But that’s all changing, with the future-proof Type C standard marching toward ubiquity.

More flexible, Full Compatibility
With connectors simplified to a single type, USB Type-C allows for cross-platform use, meaning that you only need one cable for both PC and handheld devices.

For example, Transcend JetFlash flash drives and card readers equipped with a USB Type-C connector allow free data transfer among multiple platforms without need to worry about port shapes.

Considering The Interface
It’s worth addressing the difference between USB interface standard and connector shape. USB connectors, regardless of type, can run with different USB interfaces, so you will see, for example, a USB Type-A cable running at USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 speeds. A reminder: USB 3.0 can reach its full speed potential only when your device supports USB 3.0 as well.

Cybervergent’s Q1 2024 Report Reveals Rising Threat of Remcos RAT Malware in Financial Sector

Published

Kindly share this post

Cybervergent, a foremost technology company providing automated cybersecurity solutions, in its Quarterly Brief has revealed a troubling trend in the financial sector that shows a spike in attacks utilising the deceptive Remote Control and Surveillance Access Trojan (Remcos RAT) in Q1, 2024.

The findings affirm a stark forewarning to the financial institutions and organisations in the African continent, urging heightened vigilance and proactive measures to mitigate potential escalating risks.

Previously marketed as a legitimate software, Remcos got co-opted by malicious actors and is now a prevalent tool in cybercrime campaigns. This remote access tool grants attackers hidden entry into victims’ devices, allowing them to seize control, pilfer sensitive data, and even introduce stealth backdoors to compromise entire systems. The capabilities of Remcos are diverse and frightening, ranging from disabling vital security features like User Account Control (UAC) to covertly recording user activities.

“As vigilant cybersecurity gatekeepers, we have observed a significant surge in attacks leveraging the Remcos RAT malware,” said Gbolabo Awelewa, the Chief Solutions Officer, Cybervergent. “Financial institutions are particularly targeted due to the sensitive nature of their data and assets. Organisations must remain diligent and adopt proactive monitoring measures to safeguard against such threats.”

The proactive approach adopted by Cybervergent’s Cyber Operations Centre involves meticulous analysis of attacker tactics, constant updating of threat intelligence, and implementing robust endpoint security solutions. These measures are designed to detect, prevent, and neutralise Remote Access Trojans like Remcos, ensuring the continued security and compliance of organisations in the face of evolving cyber threats.

“Our mission is to fortify our clients’ defenses and ensure the seamless operation of their organisations,” added Gbolabo. “By staying ahead of emerging attack vectors and vulnerabilities, we empower businesses to take proactive measures and protect their valuable assets.”

Looking ahead, Adetokunbo Omotosho, Chief Executive Officer of Cybervergent emphasised the firm’s focus on empowering organisations to navigate the complexities of cybersecurity and compliance with dexterity and confidence.

“Cybervergent’s Assurance and Compliance Team has demonstrated unparalleled leadership in the cybersecurity domain, achieving significant milestones and delivering transformative solutions. Our journey through Q1 reflects a deep commitment to advancing the state of cybersecurity compliance, paving the way for a secure and resilient digital future for organisations in Africa and across the world”, he added.
