Forgotten Innovations: Technology Advancements That You No Longer Notice

We live in an era where technology is king and the innovations that have come about thus far, have completely changed the way we live. Sure, we don’t have time machines or flying cars just yet, but there’s no denying just how society has become accustomed to the ability to get things done faster and more efficiently because of technology. In fact, we’ve become so comfortable with technology and rely so heavily on it that we barely even notice new innovations anymore.
Have we become spoiled now from the luxuries of technology? It’s quite possible. It’s almost as though we’ve grown so accustomed to the advancements that it’s become a high expectation now, simply because we know that it’s always changing and advancing.
We’ve actually taken technological advancements for granted if you think about it… almost like we don’t appreciate innovations anymore because they’ve become the new standard. Technology advancements are like employees who feel undervalued in their jobs, so to speak.
The technologies we take for granted the most are the ones we don’t even know exist. Did you know that the production and assembly of jewelry, home decor, and even the construction of your home are done through heat staking processes? Of course you didn’t know! But there are manufacturers all over the world that use the thermoplastic joining process of a hot riveting machine to produce the parts of some of the biggest pieces of technology we use every day!
To be fair, it actually is okay if you’ve taken technology for granted… Making various technologies a daily standard and expectation is the overall goal of technology in the first place, simply because it tells the tech industry that their advancements work and are the “new norm” now… think of it as motivation to keep advancing technology.
Nonetheless, it never hurts to have a small reminder of just how far we’ve come with technology. Let’s take a look at some advancements that were fresh and new that have now become a societal expectation.
Technological Advancements That Have Become the New Norm
Smartwatches
Smartwatches are a smaller extension of your smartphone with Bluetooth capabilities. Smartwatches allow you to send messages, answer phone calls, and check your social media accounts. But one of the biggest reasons why people love smartwatches is because they’re getting more serious about their health.
Smartwatches like the Apple Watch help Apple users track their steps and heart rate. For those who want a more affordable version, the Oshenwatch is the perfect replacement to the Apple Watch but with all the same Bluetooth capabilities and fitness functions. Smartwatches are the new norm for fitness on the go!
GPS
How in the world did we ever get to where we wanted to go without GPS? Well, there once was thing called a map and it was made of paper. You had to read it correctly to know where you were and where you needed to get to. Today, people don’t have time to try and figure out how to get from point A to point B… It’s much easier to have your GPS tell you turn-by-turn how to get there.
Later, technology advanced a little more with a site called MapQuest where you could put in the address of your destinations and print out the turn-by-turn directions. But technology decided that it still wasn’t as efficient as it could be. Later, there were actual GPS devices that you could put in your car that gave you turn-by-turn directions, but those became a little bulky…
Technology knew it could still do better than that, so it then advanced again and had GPS standardly installed to all smartphones, completely changing how we navigate the world around us. Without GPS in our phones, some of us would still be in “No Man’s Land!”
Rideshares
Rideshares have changed the way people commute to work and even how they have a good time! Since the emergence of rideshares people have been able to leave their cars at home and get to where they need to go without a ticking meter or several stops like on a bus. With rideshares, you can simply put in your starting and ending location and be charged one flat rate for a one-way or round trip ride.
Rideshares have also cut back on DUI occurrences simply because people are now taking full advantage of being able to have a good time and letting someone else get them to their destinations safely… It’s completely changed the way people travel and how they maneuver through cities.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth has forever changed the way we do things hands-free. In fact, it’s changed life as we know it from the point of view of the law! In the state of Tennessee, the “Hands Free Tenessee” campaign and law was introduced to eliminated distracted driving fatalities. Most cars now have Bluetooth capabilities to connect your phone to your car.
And, of course, Bluetooth extends beyond cars. You can listen to music, podcasts, and practically whatever you want through any Bluetooth device. This hands-free luxury is nothing new anymore but more so a typical standard of living.

The Importance of Cyber Hygiene: Tips from HelpRansomware Experts

Byline: Katreen David
In the digital age, the adage “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” has never been more relevant.
For Juan Ricardo Palacio and Andrea Baggio of HelpRansomware, the battle against digital threats is a daily reality. Founded in response to the growing menace of ransomware, HelpRansomware has made it its mission to recover data while educating the public on the importance of cyber hygiene.
“Preventing a cyberattack before it happens is crucial. We can safeguard digital assets more effectively by nipping the threat in the bud through vigilant monitoring and proactive measures,” says Baggio.
The Growing Threat of Cybercrime
Cyber threats have become increasingly pervasive and sophisticated, impacting businesses and individuals alike. According to research, there are an estimated 2,000 cyberattacks per day globally. This equates to over 800,000 cyber crimes annually. In line with this, the worldwide cost of cybercrime is projected to reach the $23 trillion mark by 2027.
This alarming figure highlights the critical need for robust cybersecurity practices. HelpRansomware has responded to this challenge by accentuating the importance of preventive measures. “Our goal is to create a safer digital environment where cyber hygiene is as natural as brushing your teeth,” says Palacio.
Cyber Clean: Maintaining Digital Hygiene
HelpRansomware advocates for a proactive outlook on cybersecurity. It offers practical tips for maintaining good cyber hygiene, such as regularly updating software, using strong and unique passwords, developing risk management plans, and educating employees about phishing scams.
“Cyber hygiene is about taking small, consistent actions to protect your digital assets,” explains Palacio. “When we practice good cyber hygiene, the chances of cyber attacks occurring shrink significantly.”
Businesses can significantly reduce cyberattack vulnerability by integrating these practices into daily routines.
HelpRansomware’s Role in Promoting Cyber Hygiene
Beyond recovery services, HelpRansomware is dedicated to raising awareness and providing education on cybersecurity best practices. It conducts workshops and seminars to help organizations understand the importance of cyber hygiene. This unique initiative mirrors the company’s sincere efforts toward shielding the world from the dark side of the web.
“Education is the first line of defense against cyber threats,” emphasizes Baggio. “Francis Bacon’s famous quote will always ring true in every industry: ‘Knowledge is power’.”
HelpRansomware’s efforts are power moves across the board that help businesses recover from attacks. Its checkmate move, however, is its vision to build a culture of prevention that can safeguard against future threats.
In an era where cyber threats lurk around every unlikely corner of the internet, the importance of cyber hygiene cannot be overstated. Through its innovative solutions and educational initiatives, HelpRansomware is leading the pack in promoting better cybersecurity practices. “We believe that a well-informed and vigilant community can defeat cybercrime,” concludes Baggio.
HelpRansomware’s proactive stance on cyber hygiene is setting new standards in the industry. Through education and preventive practices, Andrea Baggio and Juan Ricardo Palacio are fortifying the digital community, making sure that future cyber threats are met with informed and resilient defenses. Cleanliness matters in both the tangible and digital world.
