You can read more about it on the ICANN blog post here <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/q-a-what-the-retirement-of-google-site-sear ch-means-for-icann> .

by Dev Anand Teelucksingh May 14, 2017

May 14, 2017

Microsoft's customer guidance for WannaCrypt attacks : - makes available patches for Windows XP, Windows 8 and Windows Server 2003 . Also you may have read that the Wannacrypt attacks were disabled by a researcher registering a domain address. However, the underlying vulnerabilities still needs to be patched for different variants of the Wannacrypt ransomware that will likely be released. https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/msrc/2017/05/12/customer-guidance-for-w…

Microsoft PowerPoint can now translate your presentations on the fly
by Raitme Citterio May 10, 2017

May 10, 2017

Hi I share the following information about the new office powerpoint tool. We refer to Presentation Translator, capable of offering subtitles or translating the text of a presentation in real time without altering the original. In its current state, the service is able to translate from Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. The add-on focuses on translation, but the same service could be used to add subtitles to a presentation to a hearing impaired audience. This project, which has been developed in Microsoft Garage, requires an access request to be able to test it. You can register from this link <https://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/3530821/Translator-Add-in-Sign-Up>, and later you will receive access to the previous one, which is now closed. The add-on is powered by Microsoft Translator Live and is, in short, an example of how these services covered by artificial intelligence are reaching productivity applications. At the moment, according to The Next Web <https://thenextweb.com/microsoft/2017/05/10/powerpoint-can-now-translate-yo…>, Microsoft claims that 100 million Office 365 users have signed up for the previous closed. An application like this could be very important for users of the cloud version of Office. For now, apart from your announcement and that the registration for the pre-order is already open, there is not much more information. It will still have to wait to see how it works, how it integrates with Microsoft Powerpoint and how users receive it.
