Tile trackers now support Google Assistant

Google Assistant now works with your Tile tracker. You can now link the Bluetooth gadget through the Google Home app, where you can set up Voice Match in Assistant and ask the voice helper to locate the trackers for you. But instead of adding a prefix like "Ask Tile" every time, using a simple sentence would work. You can tell Assistant to ring your keys, bag, or any item attached to your TILE device. It will work on any Assistant-capable device. But for the initial setup, you will require you to have the Tile app installed on your Android or iOS device.

Adobe Creative Cloud exposed database left 7.5 million accounts vulnerable

One of the most important things you need to internalize about this latest issue is that you need to be wary of emails that look official and are asking you to log in to your Adobe Creative Cloud account. In case you missed the news, 7.5 million Adobe Creative Cloud accounts were exposed on the web. Comparitech, together with security research Bob Diachenko, found an Elastisearch database that had email addresses and other Creative Cloud account information, and that these were accessible without a need for a password or other authentication.  

The database was said to be accessible for around a week, but it isn't clear if anyone accessed it. When Comparitech and Diachenko reported the exposed database to Adobe on October 19th, the company secured it the same day. Thankfully, sensitive data—like passwords and payment information—weren't disclosed. And according to Adobe, it doesn't affect the operation of any Adobe core products or services.
