Telstra Joins the Call for Cloud Security for Businesses with Elastica


Research has shown that over 76 per cent of Australian and New Zealand employees are using between one to five unapproved applications in their laptops and mobile devices for their work. This phenomenon only shows the prevalence of shadow IT, or IT solutions that employees use without proper approval from their superiors. This practice, while beneficial for most employees because it gives them the freedom to use their preferred applications for doing their work, can also pose security threats that can put a business in jeopardy. Fortunately, the growing concern with shadow IT can now be abated with the new partnership between Telstra and US cloud security firm Elastica, aiming to provide additional protection among businesses.

Handle with Care: Common Reasons behind Need for iPhone Screen Repair


The iPhone itself is a marvellous piece of modern convenience, but it wouldn’t work its wonders if it’s broken. Unfortunately, people aren’t very good at keeping their iPhones intact, making services like iPhone screen repair or replacement a must. In an article posted at the PC Advisor website, it was highlighted in a report that a person could damage his or her iPhone within 10 weeks, from minor nicks to full-blown cracked screens. In fact, it was also reported that users are more likely to damage newer iPhone models compared to old ones. Most people can place their phones at risk of damage in a variety of settings. A survey by a U.S.-based warranty provider indicated that people accidentally ruin their iPhones most in the kitchen, followed a close second by in the living room and the bathroom. All in all, about 51 percent of iPhone accidents happen indoors rather than outdoors, which almost entirely puts the blame on the owners’ carelessness.

iPhone 4 Signal a Bit Shaky? Professional iPhone 4 Repairs Can Help


When the iPhone 4 was launched in Melbourne and other parts of the world in 2010, it caused quite a stir—and not all in a good way. Some of those who spent hours lining up to get a whiff of that new iPhone smell subsequently found out that the phone had difficulty connecting to the network, with all signs pointing to issues with the antenna. Problems with the iPhone 4’s antenna became a hot topic, although not all iPhone 4 units actually experienced crippling signal interruptions. Several owners reported that their handsets were often dropping calls, and they had more trouble getting a good signal reception compared to competing smartphones. This prompted countless consumers to seek out professional iPhone repairs.

Things to Consider when Shopping for a New Phone in a Telstra Shop


A cell phone is one of those big purchases you will likely make at least a couple of times in your life. Residents of Melbourne can enjoy the vast selection of phones available on the market. With an authorized Telstra shop like TelcoWorld Corp Pty Ltd selling almost all of the latest models you’ve been longing to have, shopping for a new phone can be exciting. However, there are a number of blunders you have to avoid. Not Checking the Features Just because a phone is constantly advertised on TV doesn’t mean it’s the best option. Some of the best units are not heavily advertised and you may have been missing out on them. Before heading out to the retail outlets, make sure that you’ve done your research. At least check the specs of the phones that you’re interested in online. Most phone manufacturers provide this information on their websites. You can also look for independent reviews that compare phones from different brands.
