Android Oreo

Android Oreo is a new Android Version of Android family, launched on 21/Aug/2017 in USA.
Android Oreo is the eighth major version of the Android Mobile Operating System. It was first released as an Alpha Quality developer preview on March 21, 2017. Android 8.0 Oreo is as comprehensive a version of Android as there has ever been, and it is as stable, feature-rich and functional as ever.High performance Bluetooth audio was one of the first Oreo features to capture the attention of the Android masses.Bluetooth 5 support is another well-publicized feature of Android 8.0.One of the least touted features of Android Vitals is faster boot times. On the Pixel the boot up process is noticeably faster – twice as fast in fact. Android Oreo also introduces an improved Ambient Display. The familiar time and notification icons still ‘breathe’ on screen when you lift your device up, but now you’ll get larger notifications when a notification first comes in. Sadly, the ability to customize the lock screen shortcuts, present in the first developer preview, didn’t make it in the final build.Another big change is the improvement of keyboard navigation. According to Google, more users are navigating to apps using a physical keyboard thanks to the arrival of the Play Store on the Google Chrome OS.The other Versions of Android are:
1.Nougat
2.Marshmallow
3.Lollipop
4.Kit Kat
5.Jelly Bean
6.Ice Cream Sandwich. etc.

North Korea ‘hacking Bitcoin exchanges to steal money’ as Kim builds 'criminal enterprise'

Bithumb was hacked in February, although the breach was not noticed until June, and it was only made public in July. At the time one customer claimed more than a million dollars’ worth of digital currency was stolen. Claire Finkelstein, a national security expert and faculty director at the University of Pennsylvania’s Centre for Ethics and the Rule of Law told Buzzfeed News: “This is very consistent with what I would expect North Korea to be doing.” Luke McNamara, a senior analyst with FireEye, also said: “I see there being two macro drivers of this threat activity.” According to Mr McNamara, the first driver was the tightening of sanctions on North Korea's economy.
