LONDON, Oct. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Beam Suntory has announced the launch of the first-ever world blended whisky, Suntory World Whisky ‘Ao’, exclusive to global travel retail (RRP 65€/$71).

Building on Suntory’s history of craftsmanship, this innovative, premium blended whisky embodies the spirit of Suntory and is a tribute to the liquid’s long history.

La Global Cyber Alliance crea una caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas

La prensa tiene nuevos recursos y herramientas para proteger su labor

WASHINGTON, 15 de octubre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — La Global Cyber Alliance (GCA) ha dado a conocer hoy su caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas, durante la conferencia «2020 Online News Association»….

La prensa tiene nuevos recursos y herramientas para proteger su labor

WASHINGTON, 15 de octubre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — La Global Cyber Alliance (GCA) ha dado a conocer hoy su caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas, durante la conferencia «2020 Online News Association». La caja de herramientas, totalmente gratuita, es un recurso operativo diseñado para ayudar a periodistas, organizaciones de periodismo de vigilancia y pequeñas salas de redacción a apuntalar sus prácticas de ciberseguridad. Este año más que nunca, los periodistas se enfrentan a enormes desafíos, y una suplantación de cuentas o cualquier otro tipo de ataque informático haría su labor aún más difícil. Con el fin de proporcionarles algo de tranquilidad, la GCA ha reunido un conjunto de herramientas con las que podrán proteger su presencia en línea, asegurándose de que su trabajo permanece bajo su control y ayudando a mantener la confianza con su público y a mejorar la gestión de su reputación.

GCA Logo

La caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas de la GCA está orientada a los profesionales que dependen de sus propios dispositivos, ya sean autónomos, trabajen para pequeñas instituciones o pasen mucho tiempo haciendo trabajo de campo. Supone un reconocimiento de la dirección hacia la que ha ido el sector y de la velocidad con que cambia el panorama de riesgo en el periodismo digital. Los organismos de vigilancia, como los que trabajan con fuentes vulnerables o gestionan grandes cantidades de datos confidenciales, también pueden beneficiarse de los recursos que se ofrecen en la caja de herramientas. Las herramientas gratuitas incluyen cifrado de datos, configuración de copias de seguridad automáticas, comunicaciones seguras y mucho más.

La caja de herramientas sigue las recomendaciones de instituciones como el Center for Internet Security (CIS), en EE UU, el National Cybersecurity Centre (NCSC), en el Reino Unido, y el Cybersecurity Centre de Australia. Estos referentes mundiales son el modelo sobre el que se ha organizado la caja de herramientas y su selección de componentes. Asimismo, con el objetivo de apoyar su adopción y uso, la GCA también ha habilitado un espacio en el foro de su comunidad donde los periodistas podrán plantear preguntas, compartir desafíos y experiencias, proponer soluciones e interactuar entre sí y con otros expertos en ciberseguridad de la GCA.

«Para lograr nuestra misión de reducir el riesgo cibernético, en la GCA buscamos unir comunidades y desarrollar soluciones de ciberseguridad escalables. Nuestra caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas refleja esta visión: el año pasado desarrollamos y participamos en un grupo asesor y celebramos sesiones de escucha con un grupo diverso de periodistas. Estos debates proporcionaron aportes críticos a la caja de herramientas y al lanzamiento de hoy, hecho cada vez más esencial en el año especialmente tumultuoso en que se ha convertido el 2020. Estamos muy agradecidos por el apoyo de Craig Newmark Philanthropies y de los miembros del grupo asesor, cuyas contribuciones han sido esenciales para ayudarnos a llegar a este día.» (Megan Stifel, directora ejecutiva para América y directora del programa Craig Newmark Philanthropies de confianza en Internet y democracia.)

La caja de herramientas ha sido posible gracias al apoyo de Craig Newmark Philanthropies, como parte de una creciente cartera de iniciativas a favor de la confianza en Internet y la democracia.

«El profesor de Historia de mi instituto dijo una vez que la confianza en la prensa es el sistema inmunológico de la democracia. Por ello, cuantas más noticias se lean en formato digital, más necesario será que los periodistas se mantengan al día en su ciberhigiene», dijo Craig Newmark, fundador de Craigslist y Craig Newmark Philanthropies. «Vivimos en un momento crítico para la verdad. Todos debemos permanecer vigilantes, pero animo especialmente a los periodistas a utilizar esta caja de herramientas y mantener la integridad del cuarto poder», dijo Newmark. «La Global Cyber Alliance tiene un historial probado ayudando a los sectores más esenciales a proteger lo que es importante; estoy orgulloso de seguir apoyando sus esfuerzos.»

«En el rápido mundo de las ciberamenazas, los periodistas se enfrentan a una tarea de enormes proporciones: cómo protegerse a sí mismos y a sus fuentes al tiempo que recogen y reportan información crítica. Hemos visto el daño que han hecho distintos actores hostiles a medios grandes y pequeños. Responder uno a uno a estos ataques es jugar al gato y al ratón; sin embargo, la caja de herramientas de la GCA presenta un enfoque metódico, paso a paso, para defenderse de los atacantes antes de que actúen», comentó Joie Chen, experiodista de la CNN.

«Los periodistas están bajo constante amenaza y muchos no tienen acceso al apoyo de las grandes organizaciones. La iniciativa de la GCA difícilmente podría ser más oportuna, y no tengo dudas de que hará una enorme contribución a la mitigación de esas amenazas y al apoyo al periodismo», dijo Martin Turner, director general de Full Frame Technology y experiodista de la BBC.

La caja de herramientas de ciberseguridad para periodistas de la GCA está disponible en https://gcatoolkit.org/journalists.

DJI’s Ronin Series Grows Stronger, Lighter, and Smarter with New DJI RS 2 and RSC 2 Gimbals

SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — DJI, the global leader in civilian drones and creative camera technology, today expands the legacy of the highly popular and prestigious DJI Ronin series, by introducing the rebranded DJI RS 2 and DJI RSC 2.

SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — DJI, the global leader in civilian drones and creative camera technology, today expands the legacy of the highly popular and prestigious DJI Ronin series, by introducing the rebranded DJI RS 2 and DJI RSC 2. Redesigned and reimagined, both systems offer the filmmaking and content creation community an extremely robust, versatile, and professional 3-axis camera gimbal for their various needs. DJI RS 2 brings added strength and agility to creators using heavier camera systems such as DSLR and compact cinema cameras. At the same time, DJI RSC 2 was created to be more portable, meeting the needs of mirrorless and more compact camera operators.

«DJI’s first Ronin-S and the original Ronin-SC created so much excitement when they launched that we immediately went back to the drawing board to figure out how to make our products even better,» said Paul Pan, Senior Product Line Manager. «Just like with the first version, we took time to research how our professional customers use their Ronin products and what new features they wanted in the next generation of a handheld gimbal. Yet again, the result is the culmination of user feedback, years of design and development, and significant advancements in stabilization technology. Now we are excited to showcase two new filmmaking tools designed to meet the needs of a wide array of filmmakers. From cinema cameras to mirrorless systems, we have a solution for you.»

DJI RS 2: Masterfully Crafted
Considering a tremendous amount of feedback from professional operators, DJI RS 2 incorporates carbon fiber in vital structural components, reducing weight down to 1.3 kg (2.86 lbs) while remaining highly durable. Pushing the innovation of single-handed gimbal technology even further, DJI RS 2 now supports a tested dynamic payload of 4.5 kg (10 lbs) for creators to use heavier camera and lens combinations while still achieving up to 12 hours of battery life. A new quick-charge function directly to the battery handle has been added for urgent situations, providing an extra two hours of battery life with just a 15-minute charge.

DJI RS 2 continues pushing gimbal technology forward with the ability to support heavier payloads while capturing ultra-smooth cinematic footage. Based on years of experience developing predictive technology, a newly optimized Titan Stabilization Algorithm reduces the need for manual user input while compensating for user movement and optimizing the gimbal tilt and angle. Additionally, a new SuperSmooth mode provides another level of camera stability, especially for compensating longer focal length lenses of up to 100mm.

Simple to set up, easy to operate, and highly customizable, DJI RS 2 was created to allow filmmakers to adapt their system to their filming needs while feeling confident it will easily integrate into their workflow. Axis locks enable easier transportation and balancing, while a dual-layer camera mounting plate is compatible with both the Arca-Swiss and Manfrotto standard. A fine-tune balancing knob allows for even more precise balancing of the camera payload. The built-in 1.4″ color touchscreen can display camera data, gimbal settings, or a live feed from the camera. Supporting 11 different languages, the ultra-bright screen can also initiate key functions such as ActiveTrack and intelligent shooting modes. The built-in front dial above the trigger allows for precise focus control and complements a DJI Focus Wheel mounted on the RSA port to create two-channel focus and zoom.[[1]] DJI RS 2 also turns into a versatile tool that can be attached and used with other systems such as jibs, car attachments, and sliders. Two RSA ports double as NATO ports so that users can mount accessories and attachments such as grips and a remote controller.

DJI RSC 2: Filmmaking Unfolds
A completely new and portable folding design makes DJI RSC 2 easy for creators to carry everywhere without adding additional weight to the gear list. Additionally, the folding design provides creative ways to use the gimbal such as vertical filming without additional accessories, as well as a new Briefcase mode, where the main gimbal arm can be loosened and slung forward to provide unique shooting angles. Durable materials like steel are used on vital and frequently used components, while lightweight materials such as aluminum reduce overall weight. DJI RSC 2 weighs in at 1.2 kg (2.65 lbs), nearly 35% less than the original Ronin-S, and has a folding footprint of 180×190 mm, the same size as a sheet of A5 paper. The built-in battery offers an impressive 12 hours of battery life and – like DJI RS 2 – the new quick-charge function directly to the battery handle has been added for urgent situations.

DJI RSC 2 remains lightweight and portable, featuring stronger motors to support a tested payload of up to 3 kg (6.6 lbs). This increased dynamic payload supports popular mirrorless cameras along with heavier combinations like the Panasonic S1H and a 24-70mm lens. Using the same advanced technology as DJI RS 2, the newly optimized Titan Stabilization Algorithm generates a new level of stability – smoothing out fine details in conjunction with the motorized gimbal for some of the most advanced stabilization on the market. DJI RSC 2 is compatible with a wide array of camera models so users can get the most out of the system. Axis locks enable easier transportation and balancing, while a dual-layer camera mounting plate is compatible with both the Arca-Swiss and Manfrotto standard. A 1″ built-in OLED screen displays camera data with the ability to adjust settings directly.

Multifaceted Gimbals Supported by an Advanced App and Accessories
DJI RS 2 and RSC 2 were designed to expand beyond single-handed stabilization into tools that can be customized with additional accessories to achieve the desired shot. These accessories include a cheese plate, Focus Wheel, 3D Focus System, Twist Grip Dual Handle, RavenEye Image Transmission System, Tethered Control Handle, counterweight systems, and more.[[2]] For remote operation, both DJI RS 2 and DJI RSC 2 can use ActiveTrack 3.0 when the RavenEye Image Transmission System is connected, sending a 1080p/30fps low-latency feed to a mobile device using the Ronin app from up to 200 meters away.

Vital features and functions can now be controlled and adjusted over long distances with the Ronin app such as gimbal movement using the virtual joystick and Force Mobile, where the gimbal mimics the mobile device’s movement. For solo operators using manual-focus lenses, the 3D Focus System uses state-of-the-art TOF sensors mounted above the camera to provide autofocus. This enables a single shooter to capture smooth and cinematic footage using a manual lens, without relying on a second camera operator or focus puller.

Pre-Programmed Movements and Features That Make Stories Come to Life
DJI RS 2 and RSC 2 expand on their predecessors’ suite of creative modes, movements, and features with tools to help capture content that stands out, including:
