![]() ![]() Perhaps both? It’s a possibility, but judging by the looks of it, I’d say a speaker. ![]() Since all we have a picture taken from a T-Mobile employee, it’s hard to gauge if the left-hand side will be a speaker or d-pad. Navigation will include a trackball like the Sidekick 3/Tempest arcade machine, but it’s currently unknown if the d-pad will make its way to the Sidekick ID’s final design. Of course, T-Mobile’s myFaves will be an integral part of the Sidekick ID. ![]() An updated Danger OS and new menu style will of course be present, but don’t expect a radical new design change or anything like that. An IM client with AIM, Yahoo!, and MSN, e-mail client, web browser, and, of course, a phone are all part of the Sidekick ID’s core. What you will find on the Sidekick ID though is probably quite welcome to most people. You won’t find some of the following features on the Sidekick ID: Bluetooth, MP3 Player, digital camera, or a microSD slot. So what’s in a name? The Sidekick ID is trimmed down to showcase communication features rather than the extra crap that’s usually included. Though it’s not the prettiest device, the Sidekick ID (yes, that’s it’s name) comes with all the features you love on your SK3, just without all the crap. Today I was leaked a picture of the device, which you see above in a color pattern known as “ugly”. Sure enough, a “Sidekick 2.5” was in the works as a trimmed-down alternative to the Sidekick 3. I took notice and after a few weeks, checked with some of my sources to confirm. Even so, with a breach this far-reaching, it's likely that the fallout will continue.Over the past few months, rumors of a “Sidekick 2.5” were flying about. Its website also lays out steps that customers of MOVEit can take to protect their data. Meanwhile, Progress Software, the US company that developed MOVEit, has identified a second vulnerability in the code that it says it is actively working to resolve. However, Clop recently began listing names of organizations affected by the MOVEit hack in an attempt to shame them into paying ransoms. Similarly, the hackers have not made any communication with the state government. The office of Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards confirmed that there was no evidence suggesting that the compromised data from the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles was sold or released. However, as of yet, no such demands have been reported by the US or state governments. The alleged culprits are hackers who are notorious for their multimillion-dollar ransom demands.

MOVEit's recently discovered vulnerability stems from a security flaw allowing for SQL injection, one of the most common types of exploits, that essentially tricks a web application into giving up confidential data or administrative system privileges. While no specific perpetrator has been officially accused by the states, federal officials have linked the comprehensive MOVEit hacking campaign to a Russian ransomware group known as Clop, which has been exploiting the same software vulnerability and demanding multimillion-dollar ransoms, as previously reported by Ars.īoth Oregon and Louisiana use MOVEit Transfer, a file-sharing tool sold by Progress Software Corp, to transfer files and data between business partners and customers. ![]() This breach has prompted the respective state authorities to educate residents on preventive measures against identity fraud. Information possibly compromised includes Social Security and driver’s license numbers. While the effects of the MOVEit hack have been ongoing throughout the month of June, the most recent intrusion has hit over 3.5 million residents of Oregon and potentially over 3 million residents of Louisiana, all possessing driver’s licenses or state ID cards.
