This is a story of those keys, and how a Hewlett Packard (HP) error caused problems for a lot of people. Code signing and certificatesįirst, it’s important to understand that when I say “keys,” what I really mean is “certificates.” These certificates are similar to the ones that are the basis for secure communication between a web server and your browser. With web traffic, these certificates are used to encrypt the data, but they support more than just encryption.Ĭertificates also allow for validation. For example, when you try to connect to your bank site, the site’s certificate will verify that the site really does belong to your bank. Not many people actually look at these certificates, of course, but doing so is a sure-fire way to avoid a phishing site. How does this relate to Apple and HP, you ask? Good question. For quite a few years now, Apple has supported what is called “code signing” on macOS. Code signing involves using a certificate to cryptographically sign a piece of software. This allows the system, and the user, to verify which developer created the software, and check that it hasn’t been modified since it was created. In the present day and age, education is heavily dependent on technology. There are online schools with coursework and assignments being given and submitted via e-mail or on a given school webpage.

The obvious reason why a student would prefer a MacBook is its superior aesthetics. This makes it less bulky and hence can be carried around with ease. It is important to note that the MacBook still has a superior processor and keyboard since none of the integral parts of the Mac are compromised to enhance lightness or slimness. It is also very beautiful as it comes in classy hues: silver, space gray, and gold. MacBook’s are also targeted by fewer viruses mainly because most of their software is specific and their market share is not deemed as large. ![]()
