'Time-travel' feature added to drives to fight ransomware attacks

One of the latest cyber threats involves hackers encrypting user files and then charging 'ransom' to get them back. In a new paper, researchers examine how to use the commodity storage devices already in a computer to save the files without having to pay the ransom. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190529180234.htm

Earth recycles ocean floor into diamonds

Most diamonds are made of cooked seabed. The diamond on your finger is most likely made of recycled seabed cooked deep in the Earth. Traces of salt trapped in many diamonds show the stones are formed from ancient seabeds that became buried deep beneath the Earth's crust, according to new research. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190529145104.htm

Swapping water for CO2 could make fracking greener and more effective

Scientists have demonstrated that CO2 may make a better hydraulic fracturing (fracking) fluid than water. New research could help pave the way for a more eco-friendly form of fracking that would double as a mechanism for storing captured atmospheric CO2. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190530122023.htm
