Security researchers have discovered a massive security flaw that could let hackers and cybercriminals listen to private phone calls and read text messages on a potentially vast scale  no matter if the cellular networks use the latest and most advanced encryption available. The critical flaw lies in the global telecom network known as Signal System 7 that powers multiple phone carriers across the world including AT&T and Verizon, to route calls, texts and other services to each other. The vulnerability... Read More

This is because at each stage of the error detection process, it is difficult to determine how long it will take to find and fix an error, not to mention whether or not the defect will actually be fixed. In order to remove bugs from the software, the developers must first discover that a problem exists, then classify the error, locate where the problem actually lies in the code, and finally create a solution that will remedy the situation (without introducing other problems!). Some problems are so elusive that it may take programmers many months, or in extreme cases, even years to find them. Developers are constantly searching for ways to improve and streamline the process of software debugging. At the same time, they have been attempting to automate techniques used in error detection.
