Apple has been hit financially and reputationally by a series of errors in recent weeks. Also, we hear how PayPal is teaming up with three Bitcoin payment processors. One year on from the deadly terrorist attack on the Westgate Shopping Mall in Nairobi, Kenya's private security industry is booming.
