Microsoft is all set to make some changes to the Windows update rollout process, offering users more control over the update process. The Redmond giant recently revealed the name of the upcoming major release of Windows 10. It’s called the Windows 10 May 2019 Update. There will be no Windows 10 April 2019 Update. Microsoft decided to postpone the release of the OS due to technical issues. Once the Windows 10 April 2019 Update is available for the general public, users will be able to decide whether they want to install it on their devices or not. This feature has been added as a part of the recent changes that made to the Windows update rollout process. As we already reported, Windows 10 users can now pause all the updates on their systems for up to 35 days. Microsoft acknowledged the fact that the changes have been implemented based on user feedback. As a matter of fact, Windows users have been complaining about the disruptive Windows update process for many years. Users can now choose when they want to initiate the installation process for the Windows 10 May 2019 Update. Additionally, Microsoft plans to send notifications to the users as soon as a major update has been released. Now, let’s talk about other features included in the latest Windows 10 update. Cortana digital assistant is going to be separated from Windows Search and a new sandbox functionality will be added. Microsoft will start rolling out the update to the Release Preview ring Insiders next week. The public rollout is expected to start next month. Learn more by visiting OUR FORUM.

An online black market offering cybercrime goods and services was found on Facebook, spreading over 74 groups and totaling around 385,000 members, according to a report by Cisco Talos security researchers. "The majority of these groups use fairly obvious group names, including 'Spam Professional,' 'Spammer & Hacker Professional,' 'Buy Cvv On THIS SHOP PAYMENT BY BTC,' and 'Facebook hack (Phishing),' says Cisco Talos. More to the point, the members of these Facebook groups sell, buy, and exchange anything from account credentials and phishing tools and services credit card info and fake IDs. "Others products and services were also promoted. We saw spammers offering access to large email lists, criminals offering assistance moving large amounts of cash, and sales of shell accounts at various organizations, including government," also said the Cisco Talos researchers. What's even more surprising is that it is very simple to find and join these cybercrime-focused Facebook groups, especially since Facebook's algorithms will automatically suggest joining similar groups from the same network designed to promote illegal cybercrime tools and services. While Cisco Talos first tried to take down the groups using the social network's abuse report feature, the security researchers had to eventually reach out to Facebook and disclosed their findings after their initial attempts weren't fully successful. This led to the eventual takedown of most of the Facebook groups involved in the virtual black market, but, as reported by Cisco Talos, new groups have been created and some of them are still active and need to be closed by the social network's security team.
