Provider's Engaged by Connected Texas LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Stakeholder, Since 2010, Connected Texas has been narrowing the divide between those who have access to broadband and those who do not. Connected Texas has created the forum for a variety of leaders and entities to unite behind common goals and a shared vision. This teamwork has made Texas a better place for business and an even better place to live in large measure by addressing the technology needs of education and business. Connected Texas provides statewide technology leadership and advocacy through robust, public-private partnerships that expand broadband access and enhance technology adoption and use to grow economies, retain and attract talent, and create jobs. Fueled by unprecedented data and research, Connected Texas’ ability to facilitate and organize a diverse cross-section of stakeholders has resulted in numerous efforts across the state to expand the life-changing benefits of broadband to all. These efforts were continued and maintained in part due to the receipt of the State Broadband Initiative (SBI) grant funded by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). While Connected Texas’ impact has been substantial, the need for ongoing improvement in broadband access and adoption remains. The Federal Communications Commission’s recent announcement of its new “advanced broadband” benchmark of 25 Mbps download/3 Mbps upload has ignited a renewed urgency to both meet this target and exceed those speeds in order to solidify Texas’ stance in the cutting-edge interconnected economy. The following report is designed to memorialize the efforts of Connected Texas as well as showcase examples of the thousands of stakeholders impacted by our work to date. By examining our technology past, we can better plan for our connected future. Sincerely, Tom Ferree President and COO Connected Nation Connected Texas Final Grant Report Page|2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Since 2010, Connected Texas has been the “voice of broadband” in the Lone Star State. Offering a neutral perspective on broadband access, adoption, and use, Connected Texas has worked closely with communities, providers, government officials, and anchor institutions to accelerate technology in the state. Connected Texas served as the state’s designated entity for broadband mapping, research, technical assistance, and local technology planning. The following report summarizes advances made in broadband access, adoption, and use over the past five years, as well as outstanding challenges and opportunities for continued growth to ensure that all Texas communities, residents, institutions, and businesses are connected to twenty-first century technology and equipped with the skills and support to utilize it to its fullest. According to Connected Texas’ broadband maps, the state continued strong growth in broadband infrastructure and deployment, as well as increased competition among the higher broadband speed tiers over the last five years. Despite progress, significant connectivity gaps persist in the state, particularly in the state’s rural areas. While expanding broadband access to these areas is important, without corresponding broadband adoption among Texas’ consumers and businesses, further investment and build-out could be deterred. To provide information on the people, businesses, and communities that are taking advantage – and more importantly, not yet taking advantage – of the expansive opportunities provided through broadband, Connected Texas conducts annual statewide residential and business broadband surveys. In Connected Texas’ 2014 Residential Technology Assessment, these surveys revealed that 74% of Texans have adopted broadband at home, and 80% of businesses in the state utilize broadband. Yet, with nearly 5 million adults and 105,000 businesses statewide still without broadband, there remains much to do. Within individual communities, Connected Texas facilitated broadband and technology outreach, education, and dissemination through its Connected Community Engagement Program (“Connected”). The Connected program coalesces and trains regional leaders and forms community broadband planning teams to assess the local technology landscape. Each community is then provided a step-by- step action plan to meet their local technology needs. Since 2011, twenty-nine Texas communities have successfully completed local technology assessments and received technology action plans through this program. Connected teams are working to address a wide variety of technology-related issues across community sectors. From addressing rural infrastructure gaps, improving the online presence and use of technology among businesses, or expanding tele-health opportunities at rural institutions, to expanding e-government services, hosting local technology summits, or developing, implementing, and support one-to-one device programs and connectivity for schools, the Connected program offers a direct intervention for accelerating the access, adoption, and use of technology across Texas.

  • Comodo Threat Intelligence
    Comodo Threat Intelligence Lab SPECIAL REPORT: AUGUST 2017 – IKARUSdilapidated Locky Part II: 2nd Wave of Ransomware Attacks Uses Your Scanner/Printer, Post Office Billing Inquiry THREAT RESEARCH LABS Locky Ransomware August 2017 Special Report Part II A second wave of new but related IKARUSdilapidated Locky ransomware attacks has occurred, building on the attacks discovered by the Comodo Threat Intelligence Lab (part of Comodo Threat Research Labs) earlier in the month of August 2017. This late August campaign also uses a botnet of “zombie computers” to coordinate a phishing attack which sends emails appearing to be from your organization’s scanner/printer (or other legitimate source) and ultimately encrypts the victims’ computers and demands a bitcoin ransom. SPECIAL REPORT 2 THREAT RESEARCH LABS The larger of the two attacks in this wave presents as a scanned image emailed to you from your organization’s scanner/printer. As many employees today scan original documents at the company scanner/printer and email them to themselves and others, this malware-laden email will look very innocent. The sophistication here includes even matching the scanner/printer model number to make it look more common as the Sharp MX2600N is one of the most popular models of business scanner/printers in the market. This second wave August 2017 phishing campaign carrying IKARUSdilapidated Locky ransomware is, in fact, two different campaigns launched 3 days apart. The first (featuring the subject “Scanned image from MX-2600N”) was discovered by the Lab to have commenced primarily over 17 hours on August 18th and the second (a French language email purportedly from the French post office featuring a subject including “FACTURE”) was executed over a 15-hour period on August 21st, 2017.

We analyzed information on the FTTH subscriber bases in each country. We developed FTTH subscriber forecasts based on deployment and investment plans and realistic implementation schedules. We also studied other types of wireline access in each country. We gathered information concerning along FTTH regulatory issues and announcements for each country. Information was gathered from reports, announcements, press releases and interviews provided by regulatory agencies, other government agencies, communications service providers, vendors and investment groups. We have developed opinions on the drivers and inhibitors of FTTH in each country as reflected in our FTTH and household penetration forecasts. We have also developed forecasts for other types of wireline broadband including DSL and cable modem. In addition, we gathered basic information concerning LTE and WiMAX for selected countries.
