Windows 8, Microsoft's latest operating system, has its own app library.

So you wanna play that game, huh? China Unicom will take over one of China's main networks from Cisco Systems because of -- what else? -- security reasons.

Huawei reportedly has offered Australian authorities unfettered access to its software code in an effort to combat the perception that it is a security risk.
