I have an object which has public properties.
Say for e.g. an object called Regions and it looks something like this
public class Region { // public properties string name; string description; string timezone; string regionURL; string regioncode; }
Now I want to validate this object to region XSD which basically doesn't have all the properties which are present in the region object. And for the properties which are in the XSD I want to generate the output as XML.
The region XSD looks like
<xs:complexType name="region">
<xs:element name="name" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="URl" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="code" type="xs:int"/>
Is there something inbuilt in .net which can be helpful?

These infamous hip-hop words are among some of the numerous memorable lyrics uttered by GURU (Gifts Unlimited Rhymes Universal) over DJ Premier's track on the February 1991 Gang Starr single "Just To Get A Rep" (Chrysalis/EMI) which, with "Who's Gonna Take The Weight" on the single's flip side, is a true hip-hop classic! Same for the January 1991 Gang Starr album Step In The Arena that "Rep" was culled from. Both are key parts of hip-hop's legacy, with each phrase and rhyme known by heart to any true hip-hop fan. "Just to Get a Rep" harks from a time (late 80's/early 90's) that many agree was the "golden age of hip-hop" and a time that is very close to my heart as a longtime hip-hop fan.
And listening to "Just to Get A Rep" again (see the video below and read the lyircs under video screen) brings back memories of that time when the single and the album had just dropped, a time that was brimming with amazing new hip-hop joints that (as a DJ) I was dying to play. Back then I was doing Bay Area hip-hop radio and TV shows and interviewed Gang Starr many times. It was no big deal back then. At the time, rap had still not gone 100% fulltime mainstream -- it was pre Dre's Chronic, which ushered a new, more mainstream era in rap's consumption. This meant that if you were a Bay Area DJ on such independent small stations as KUSF, KALX, KZSU, KPOO, KPFA, or KFJC, you could get artists like Gang Starr to make a live appearance on your show with little effort (today you are competing with David Letterman and People magazine). Back at that time Guru and Premo made numerous trips to the Bay regularly to perform (shows for example were at one of Dave Paul's BOMB Hip-Hop Showcases at the DNA) and do the rounds of local radio stations and retail outlets (big up to Leopolds in Berkeley and T's Wauzi at Eastmont Mall in East Oakland). If you have any memories of this hip-hop classic or wish to nominate one of your personal fave hip-hop classics, please do so below in the COMMENTS. Thanks!

Twitter's newly fortified mission to "deliver a consistent Twitter experience," which is FREAKING OUT the tech world right now, will also force some news organizations to re-examine their code.
In a blog post, Michael Sippey, Twitter's head of consumer products, said the company will crack down on apps that "reproduce the mainstream Twitter consumer client experience." Think TweetBot, EchoFon, etc. While there's no Seattle Times-branded Twitter client, changes in the API terms will have a subtler impact on Twitter-powered news apps.
Two of the most important changes: Tweets displayed to users must follow the company's Display Guidelines, which require "Reply, Retweet, and Favorite action icons must always be visible." And "No other social or 3rd party actions may be attached to a Tweet." (Let's hope Twitter's next move isn't to require us to capitalize "tweet.")
That means news apps like The Washington Post's @MentionMachine, which tracks presidential candidates on Twitter, will have to be reworked on the front end, where tweets are presented to readers, to match a style similar to Twitter's own tweet embeds.
"Everything that we do with partners in social and tech is just an evolving scenario," said Cory Haik, who manages digital projects at the Post. "Bringing that attitude forward is just helpful anyway, because, you know, it's all subject to change."
It's a reminder that anyone who builds a product on a third-party platform, especially a free one, risks losing everything, anytime, on a moment's notice. Just this morning I received a pitch from a startup called EmbedTree, which "aggregates rich media from Twitter and embeds this content within our site." Looks cool, good idea, but Twitter's new terms may kill it dead: One of the new rules is that pictures shared on Twitter must be displayed alongside the original tweet.
Marco Arment, the creator of Instapaper, worries that "I can't just display a tweet as a link and blockquote when I want to quote it." I think he's wrong, though, because Twitter can't revoke a person's writing privileges — God, not yet — for misuse of their content, since embedding a tweet doesn't require an API key.
The rules also forbid intermingling tweets with non-Twitter content, "e.g. comments, updates from other networks." That immediately raised concerns that Storify — a favorite tool of journalists — would bite the dust.
Twitter, mess with
@storify and we are going to have problems.
— Anthony De Rosa (@AntDeRosa) August 16, 2012
Twitter's Ryan Sarver said Storify would be safe. ("They are what we *want* in the ecosystem," he tweeted.)
Even if your organization doesn't build apps, there may be changes to services journalists use. On Twitter, Dan Cohen told me: "We often find stories for Digital Humanities Now (@dhnow) using some Twitter processing services (like News.me, TweetedTimes)…we're trying to figure out how those services will be affected, esp. since Flipboard seems to be on the 'Dead to Twitter' list."
For example, the resurrected Digg.com displays tweets on its home page underneath popular stories. The reply/retweet/favorite buttons do appear when you hover over the tweet, but not until then. Does that break with the display guidelines? Bananastand Inc., the Betaworks company that now runs the site, did not want to comment for this story.
Our own Fuego, which monitors a universe of about 7,000 journalists to determine what they're talking about in real time, will probably have to change. We display the screen name, avatar, and text of the first tweet associated with a popular link. Under Twitter's rules, we'll have to comply with Twitter's Display Guidelines or risk losing our privileges.
The Nieman Lab's iPhone app, like those of a lot of other outlets, displays a simple view of our Twitter feed. We think that's okay, because it's powered by RSS and not the API, but we'll see.
It seems like a long time ago that journalists were debating the merits of Twitter. Now, Twitter is so integral to our work that it feels like a utility — electricity, the phone, Gchat — and less like what it is: a for-profit company trying to protect its business interests. Everything is subject to change. Worth remembering when you're deciding where to invest your development efforts.

Foreshadowing/Symbolism in Qubool Hai
Hi Guys,
This is my weekend post for QH. As this is my first 4Lions show, I am just figuring out their writing style. Their writers have a unique way of writing their script. If one looks carefully, there is a lot of symbolism and foreshadowing throughout the story. I will try to recall some examples. Please feel free to add your own observations.
8. Just saw part 1. Ayaan's intro song is " main jat Yamla pagla deewana, itti so baat na jaana, ki wo mainoo pyaar kar di hai". He sings this song with humein and other girls.
9. When imran's family is getting directions on the phone, humein a is shown to be smarter than Razia. We saw this in the whole engagement fiasco. So, if anyone can outwit Razia, then it will be Humeira.
10. The frozen screen shot at the end of first episode shows zoya in between Ayaan and asad. Her eyes are gazing at Asad.
11. Even the book titles that Asad reads are symbolic. Yesterday, he was reading " essentials of perfection" That shows how desperate he is to go back to baseline (what he perceives as perfection) but Zoya messes his resolve every time.
12. The whole bond track was foreshadowing of the real detective work asad and zoya are doing now.
13. This is Adeeti's observation: when Badi b and zoya collided, all the gifts fell down, symbolizing how Badi Bo's family has been scattered but zoya picks all the gifts one by one, symbolizing how she will help her gather the broken family and bring them together. The pouch with the raaz was on the top- so it will be the last thing to be revealed but the top most priority.
14. Another one from Adeeti: the doll with the memory chip resents zoya whose memory will be triggered by events surrounding the doll factory. The doll is right now lying outside asad's house, discarded just like zoya was discarded 17 years ago ( the culprit might have thought they have killed or lst her)
I am sure there are many more. Please feel free to add to the list.

In re:
Savvaidis & Associates Estate Agents,
Rip-Off Report No.: 759034
Bruce Meyerson,
Complainant, Savvaidis & Associates Estate Agents (Savvaidis), has challenged the truthfulness of certain statements (each, a Statement) posted by Author Anonymous on the Ripoff Report website at www.ripoffreport.com on August 1, 2011, as Ripoff Report No. 759034 (the Report). The Author contends that the Complainant misled the Author in connection with the purchase of a holiday home in 2007. The Complainant denies the allegations in the Report. Both the Complainant and the Author have agreed to submit the dispute to the Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration.
In addition to challenging the statements made by the Author, the Complainant is also challenging the status or role of the Author. Based upon the nature of the Statements set forth in the Report, the Complainant is unable to identify the Author.
Each Statement challenged by the Complainant has been considered, together with any Witness Statements and Documents provided by the Complainant for determination of the truth or falsity of the Statement. The Author has not provided a response to the Complaint.
I have been asked to decide whether the preponderance of the evidence submitted establishes that each Statement is true or that it is false. If the statement identified by the Complainant is determined to be an opinion, no determination will be made as to that particular Statement because an opinion cannot be determined to be true nor false.
Each challenged Statement submitted by the Author is set forth below together with my comments and ruling:
1. Statement: the price was 215,000 and we purchased 85 sqm villa.
Discussion: The Complainant has provided the Declaration of Lee Tokouzis, Transactions Manager at Savvaidis, and the Declaration of Lynn Usher, Sales Manager at Savvaidis. These Declarations state that Savvaidis did not sell a house in 2007 of 85 sqm for 215,000 euros. The Declarations also state that Savvaidis has never sold property in a river bed. Although the particular Statement challenged does not mention that the home was purchased in 2007, other information contained in the Report states that the purchase occurred in 2007. The Author has had the opportunity to contradict these Declarations but did not do so.
Ruling: I find this Statement false.
2. Statement: our villa is now valued at 115,000 euro.
Discussion: This Statement is an opinion. The Declarations do not address this Statement.
Ruling: I am unable to determine the truth or falsity of this Statement.
3. Statement: So we now have a mortgage that is almost twice the amount [of] the real value.
Discussion: This Statement is an opinion. The Declarations do not address this Statement.
Ruling: I am unable to determine the truth or falsity of this Statement.
4. Statement: We cant rent it out.
Discussion: This Statement is an opinion. The Declarations do not address this Statement.
Ruling: I am unable to determine the truth or falsity of this Statement.
5. Statement: We challenged Mr. Savvaidis.
Discussion: The Declarations mentioned above also state that neither representative of Savvadis has been approached regarding the Authors concerns. Although not explicitly stated in the Declarations, I am inferring that the Declarants are also stating they are unaware of any contact made about this matter to Savvadis. The Author has had an opportunity to contradict these Declarations but did not do so.
Ruling: I find this Statement false.
6. Statement: This man and his company left us with a nightmare instead of the dream.
Discussion: This Statement is addressed by the Declarations described in (1) above.
Ruling: I find this Statement false.
7. Statement: property is sited on a river bed.
Discussion: This Statement is addressed by the Declarations described in (1) above.
Ruling: I find this Statement false.
8. Statement: In winter 2010 the river bed flooded causing hundreds of thousands of euros damage.
Discussion: The Declarations do not address this Statement. The Author has provided no evidence to support this Statement.
Ruling: I am unable to determine the truth or falsity of this Statement.
9. Statement: We cant sell it.
Discussion: The Declarations do not address this Statement. The Author has provided no evidence to support this Statement.
Ruling: I am unable to determine the truth or falsity of this Statement.
10. Statement: thanks to Savvadis & his misleading team of staff.
Discussion: The intent of this Statement is to suggest that Savvadis misled the Author with respect to the purchase of the home. The Declarations described in (1) address this Statement. The Author had an opportunity to contradict these Declarations but did not do so.
Ruling: I find this Statement false.
DATED this ____ day of October, 2011.
Bruce E. Meyerson, Arbitrator
In 2007 we purchased a holiday home from this company (((REDACTED)))
The sale was conducted by savvaidis associates who told us that we could rent out our property to tourists during the summer months to enable us to meet mortgage payments and even show us some profit at the end of each year,it all sounded great so we signed up for our "investment" of an 85m2 villa with pool to be built during the following year.
In 2008 our villa was finished and with the "help" of a Savvaidis recommended Lawyer was now ours.
We were so excited to own our own little part of greece but soon it all changed and the horrors of what we had purchased was coming to light.
After consulting an other greek speaking lawyer we discovered that our villa of 85m2 was in truth registered as only 45m2 on both building licence, plans and notary contract, our villa was now valued at 115,000euro due to these facts but we had paid 20,000euro and owed a loan of 195,000euro!
Worse to come we were now informed that our villa was now classed as "ILLEGAL" and we would never be able to rent out to tourists as indeed the Savvaidis staff had guaranteed us, to do this we would require an EOT licence and as our villa was illegal would never comply to hold such a licence.
So now we have a mortgage that is almost twice a much as the true value of the property and we can't rent it out as Savvaidis told us we could before the purchase. (((REDACTED)))
In winter 2010 the riverbed flooded causing a river to run through the development of villa's causing hundreds of thousands of euros damage, the insurance wont pay because of the sighting of our villa being on a flood plane, we can't sell it as its only worth 120/30keuro can't rent it and don't ever want to holiday there again due to our treatment by Savvaidis and corruption that seems to surround this company.

Arizer Solo Vaporizer Reviews
Write Your Own Review
I've had this guy for at least 2 years now, probably more, and I use it on a daily basis. It's simple to use, easy to clean, produces great vapor consistently and charges quickly. I simply cannot say anything bad about this device. In general, I'm a big fan of the Arizer vaporizers -- they are well made and carefully thought out. It's not the smallest of portable vaporizers, but it's small enough to put in a bag or a large pocket. If you are having trouble drawing, wiggle the stem or tilt it slightly and it will be fine. Very happy with this product.
The best vaporizer experience ever. I really like this little vaporizer. My previous experience with portables was not that great. There are zero sacrifices with the Solo. It's compact for easy portability, the design makes maintenance very low, and works very well. For quality / design I give it a little hit for the controls as I do the desktop version. However, the rest of the Solo is very nice. It's small but has a nice weight and solid feel. There are only two parts to the Solo if you don't count the charger. It's a simple design that works and produces quality vapor.

In 1995, when the city was in the doldrums and the population was shrinking, Edmonton capped the number of taxi licences it issues at 1,185. Since then, Edmonton's population has grown from 616,000 to 878,000, an increase of 262,000 people. Over that same period, the city has issued just 134 new taxi medallions. Today, we have a mere 1,319 licensed cabs on the road, serving one of North America's hottest regional economies. Hence the local excitement about Uber, the San Francisco-based ride sharing app, which allows you to summon a car to drive you where you need to get, without getting a busy signal or getting stuck for 15 minutes on hold.

I draw and do digital and traditional pictures, and I am currently working on 2 books. I was for a while against selling my own work because I was concerned that it would cost me my license for creativity. But honestly now I believe that its not going to hurt me to do this. I also need all the extra money I can get to support my terminally ill mother.
I love writing, and drawing, and I even enjoy singing. I have fun in life and I try to help others out as much as I can. I don't need to be 'famous' to be successful or happy. This does not mean I don't have dreams or want to keep drawing and writing and even getting published. But you will find I am not focused on that.
To top it off I am also a Christian! I will be putting up more Bible art so if you love that then look at the gallery!

Apple's conference call after announcing its Q3 2014 financial results kicked off with Apple CEO Tim Cook discussing Yosemite, iOS 8, and Swift. Cook also touched on CarPlay, HealthKit, HomeKit, in addition to the company's new partnership with IBM.
Getting to the financial results, Cook announced that Apple set a June quarter record, with iPhones also setting a new third quarter record. "iPad sales met our expectations but we realize they didn't meet many of yours," Cook said, noting an overall decline in the tablet markets while moving on to citing surveys in which customers expressed satisfaction with iPad.
Cook expressed excitement with Apple's acquisition of Beats, citing Beats' subscription service, "access to rare talent," and a growing lineup of products. As he's done in the past, Cook briefly referenced upcoming new products and services.
Apple CFO Luca Maestri talked about the iPhone and its impressive results in the quarter. As for the iPad, he announced increased sales in the Middle East, China, and India, while adding that such growth was offset by lower sales in "more mature markets." iTunes revenue was up to $2.6 billion. Apple expects $37 billion to $40 billion in revenue next quarter, with a gross margin between 37 and 38 percent. Maestri said he expects a busy fall, as Apple is "very excited" about what's in the pipeline.
When asked about decreased tablet sales, Cook said that "significant innovation" can still come to the iPad, "and we plan on doing that." Cook believes there's a "substantial upside" in iPad sales within business, which led him to remark on the recently announced IBM partnership. "I honestly believe the opportunity is huge," he said.
On sales in China this quarter, Cook said, "We thought it would be strong, but it well went past what we thought." He noted that unit growth was "off the charts."
Asked about trade-in programs for iPhone, Cook said trade-ins are "hugely beneficial for our ecosystem," as those phones often go to "price sensitive" customers. Cook also believes the cannibalization factor is low due to that price sensitivity, while pointing out the high resale value of Apple products. But he also noted, "It's very different to quantify with certainty."
Cook said iPhone 5c had the highest growth of the current three iPhone tiers in the quarter.
When asked how Apple is changing, in reference to the Beats acquisition and the IBM partnership, Cook said that although the company is always on the lookout for acquisitions, "we don't let our money burn a hole in our pocket." Again, Cook referenced Beats' subscription service and products, while taking the time to note that Beats has "a very rare set of talent that we think can do great things in Apple."

A long while ago I disemboweled this self-published piece of watery shit to cries of BULLYING!!! or something, and then I found my notes and remembered why I went after this author in the first place. Celebrate! Here's part two and an explanation on why Melissa Goldberg is a racist little crybaby who's not much better at being a progressive liberal than she is at writing. It must really suck to be so politically tone-deaf, unintelligent, self-centered and talentless at the same time.

Ken Grimwood's REPLAY – misogyny and the American DreamStandard
Jeff Winston was 43 and trapped in a tepid marriage and a dead-end job, waiting for that time when he could be truly happy, when he died.
And when he woke and he was 18 again, with all his memories of the next 25 years intact. He could live his life again, avoiding the mistakes, making money from his knowledge of the future, seeking happiness.
Until he dies at 43 and wakes up back in college again…
This book was published in 1987, and yea, there shalt be many cries of "BUT 'TWAS A PRODUCT OF ITS TIME" since 1987 was–like–the fucking Middle Ages, man. It's steeped to the eyeballs in what I'll charitably call the American Dream, a heaping shitload of sexism that makes Philip K Dick look vaguely evolved, and an easy rival to both Jonathan Lethem and Jim Butcher when it comes to unrelenting misogyny. For fuck's sake, the story begins with Our Hero–middle-class white dude experiencing a midlife crisis–being nagged by his disillusioned wife. Then he dies.
Unfortunately, that's not the last we see of Jeff Winston.
self-publishing lulz – HYBRID CHILD by Melissa Goldberg pt 1Standard
Sixteen-year-old Celina was stressed out by the pressures of her life as a junior in high school. But that monotonous life of homework, SAT prep, and classes was all she wanted after she was kidnapped by a Demon King and dragged into a whole new world. Separated from her captor during the transportation process, Celina is left alone and helpless in a foreign and dangerous land. With newly formed allies, she sets out to discover why she's been brought there and to solve the mystery of what makes her so sought after. She soon discovers that a power she wasn't aware of has been within her, and not only is a Demon God interested in it, but so is an Angel God. And Celina, a mere human, is caught in a battle between the denizens of Heaven and Hell.
You know shit is awesome when the author has admitted that she's submitted this word-vomit to "20-30 agencies," none of whom wanted to look at it. Now there's room for self-publishing–I've reviewed Sarah Diemer–when you've got an unconventional narrative or your protagonist is a minority and thus considered "unmarketable," but given that The Hybrid Child is vacuous cliche-ridden pap about a straight white middle-class US teenager, it's probably safe to say that agents refused to look at it for reasons other than bigotry or fear of experimental literary techniques. In short, Melissa Goldberg might have considered reevaluating her manuscript and her options, which shouldn't have included "self-publish it and hope people will buy it for $2 a pop," because that's not going to happen. On account of it being shit and having a hilarious cover art. Maybe $0.3? Except you can read much, much better fiction that's–you know–free, so what's the incentive to fork over any amount of money at all to read this tripe? It is mainly this astonishment at her lack of good sense that made me decide to review this crud. Plus, I'm pretty sure this is the most publicity this book will ever get, so frankly I deserve compensation.
And what the hell are "Angel Gods" and "Demon Gods"?

SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/13/13 -- The Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) will showcase unique demonstrations from Huawei and Telecom Italia, amongst others, in a four-hour session at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Recently announced, the event will take place on 27 February in the Theater District, Hall 8.0, Theater C of the Fira Gran Via.
With presentations and demonstrations from some of the industry's leading vendors and operators, attendees are sure to gain an exclusive preview into up and coming technologies, across the entire wireless value chain, some of which are not yet commercially available.
Augmented reality will be addressed by Huawei and Telecom Italia, both showcasing the OMA MobAR (Mobile Augmented Reality) Enabler. Huawei will be showing its Smart Life software, which provides users with information in a 3D mode, using cameras rather than keywords to search and find what they need. Telecom Italia will demonstrate its Augmented Reality app receiving information and content based on geo-location information and user preferences from a server in the network, which can be displayed in real-time camera-view on the device.
Telecom Italia will also be addressing social media and will show how users belonging to different social media networks can interact, exchange activities and see reactions using federated mobile social networks, while keeping control over where their social data is used. Some extra features will also be presented, showing how proximity technologies such as mobile smart-codes or NFC can be used to trigger interaction between users. This demo will be based on the OMA SNeW (Social Network Web) Enabler.
Huawei will exhibit the OMA UVE (Unified Virtual Experience) Enabler for multi-screen sharing, through LiveShare. Currently not commercially available, this solution enables users to share content and screen views across devices including smartphones, tablets and smart TVs, as well communicating simultaneously with others.
In support of the OMA draft standard VirMO (Virtualization Management Object), Red Bend Software will show how different entities can manage each virtualized OS on a dual-persona smartphone used for BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Using OMA DM-based management infrastructure, mobile operators can manage the consumer's personal phone, while enterprise IT administrators can manage the consumer's work phone.
Gemalto will be demonstrating its Device Management Expert, enabling telecom operators to reduce costs and stimulate data usage, by being able to standardize configuration and manage settings and application downloads on Android smartphones.
M2M will be a hot topic as the mobile industry looks at the growth of M2M device connections. This will be reflected in a session by Telecom Italia and Telecomunicazioni & Informatica, which will show a solution for Home Automation focused on integrating M2M Devices into Mobile Operators' Networks, even if those Devices aren't natively able to do so. This demo uses an OMA-DM M2M Gateway, bringing to life an OMA driven value chain.
Smart Home applications over next generation M2M will be presented by the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems (FOKUS), showing the migration path for operators from a human communication paradigm towards Machine Type Communication (MTC). The demonstration will feature remote automation through mobile connectivity, near field communication, location and presence information, and user-defined policies to automate light and air conditioning.
Sensinode will show a complete device to cloud lightweight M2M asset management solution for outdoor lighting control. The system demonstrates the new OMA draft Lightweight M2M (LWM2M) Enabler, giving the global marketplace an open standard approach.
Location-based Services (LBS) will be demonstrated by some ground breaking technology from Invisitrack Inc that will evolve location awareness for enterprise, consumer and public safety that uses commonly available LTE signals for positioning.
CSR will be showcasing SiRFusion location technology, offering accurate indoor and outdoor navigation capability. The demonstration will feature services such as location based security and proximity awareness in addition to indoor navigation.
Comverse, Inc. and Interop Technologies will offer an overview of two different Rich Communication Services (RCS) and messaging solutions. The Comverse RCS/joyn and Next-Generation MultiVAS demonstrations will show how CSPs can make a smooth transition to the digital era. This leverages the evolution to all-IP/4G to increase revenues by harnessing data growth, enriching services with omni-device capabilities, integration with Internet services and more -- while reducing costs. Interop Technologies will demonstrate its RCS solution that incorporates the required IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) functions into the RCS server itself. This allows operators to launch RCS with or without an IMS core saving costs and complexity when deploying RCS in the network.
The demonstrations, all enabled by specifications developed by OMA member companies, will give attendees the opportunity to see how OMA Enablers can help deploy products and services with the broadest reach and are interoperable across networks, devices and geographic boundaries.
This unique session can be seen on Wednesday February 27, 2013 in the Theater District, Hall 8.0, Theater C, from 15.00 - 19.00. To register to attend this event, please contact Elizabeth Rose [email protected].
This event will also be open to a limited number of journalists to obtain previews of the demonstrations and the chance to speak to the companies attending. To register for a press pass to this event please contact Emma Johnson [email protected].

If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Then the reality is that most enterprises are embarking on a hybrid cloud strategy and programs.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.
