What makes e-mail trustworthy? There are at least two factors at play here: e-mail authentication, as described in a recent article, ensures that outbound e-mail really comes from the purported sending domain. That doesn't tell you whether the sender is a highly-reputable institution or a spammer, though ...
Is identity theft on the rise, or is it a problem that has been vastly overhyped? Recent incidents of lost or stolen laptops have focused public attention on the huge amount of personal information that can very easily make its way outside the control of corporate IT. However, in spite of so many incidents involving hundreds of thousands of individuals, it is not clear that the lost or stolen information was actually used for gain...
Brian DeWolfe, senior property manager at Lincoln Property, has a big challenge. The high-end properties he manages in the fast-growing south Florida region require security; indeed, it's one of the biggest line items in the budget, as well as a big draw for potential tenants. Physical security costs money, but market forces require cost-cutting without reducing overall security. He could use a technology helping hand...
Identity theft and strong opinions go hand in hand. ID theft is rampant and is causing millions of dollars of damage every year -- or, it really isn't such a big problem, and few people are really hurt financially by it. Why such wide disparity? More importantly, what can a business owner, an IT manager, a software developer, a consumer or a risk manager do about stopping ID theft when the problem seems so poorly understood?...
Bob Graham doesn't wait for a threat to become a pandemic. Several years ago, when one of his employees decided to start using a Treo handheld for phone and e-mail, he purchased and installed Symantec anti-virus software on the device -- even though there had never been a documented case of a virus hitting the Treo. Graham's motto: Be proactive. As Senior VP of Information Systems at Farmers and Merchants Bank of Long Beach, he maintains a constant vigil over security...
Darknets, Greynets. Dark traffic. The words are frightening. The reality behind them is even more frightening. Increasingly clever hackers, thieves and scoundrels are using the Internet, peer-to-peer products, instant messaging and e-mail to wreak havoc, in ways and for purposes never before seen. Their motivation is clear: They want money, and lots of it. Worst of all, they prey on human nature -- and business infrastructure -- to do their dirty work for them...
The past several weeks have seen an onslaught of articles regarding privacy, identity and security. Most of them bemoan the fact that we all have too many passwords, they are difficult and costly to manage, and that "there must be a better way!" Suggestions have ranged from password-reset and password-synchronization software, to biometrics such as finger scans, to third-party "trusted sites" that will act as a broker for all your private information...
President Bush let it be known on April 14 of this year that he does not send e-mail -- not even to his twin daughters -- because he fears his "personal stuff" may be made public. His remarks were made during a discussion of whether his administration is being responsive to requests made under the Freedom of Information Act. "There has got to be a certain sense of privacy" he said to the American Society of Newspaper Editors...

Consumers around the world are becoming increasingly concerned about the trustworthiness of e-commerce. They may have good reason: Cases of identity theft appear in the daily headlines, and we are only now starting to understand exactly how difficult it can be to restore one's name and credit rating ...
Mobile security. It's an idea whose time has finally come, judging by the amount of interest at the recent RSA security conference in San Francisco. The show floor was abuzz with talk about securing both mobile devices, and securing the increasingly mobile enterprise ...
Imagine you're the CEO of a major bank. Now, imagine paying more and more for security guards, only to find that the risk is increasing, not decreasing, due to threats that can't be countered by security guards. That's the situation facing today's CIOs and software managers, who continue to increase spending on IT security -- only to face a growing list of digital threats...
During his daily commute into Manhattan from Long Island, George Miller's notebook computer can connect to dozens of networks without his even realizing it. Indeed, as Miller's train weaves and winds its way into the city, his notebook computer discovers dozens of unsecured wireless networks emitting signals from banks, retail stores, hospitals and homes...
You spent the time and money to balance productivity and security. You installed antivirus software at the firewall, at the e-mail gateway, and on all your endpoint devices -- workstations, PCs and laptops. And your new headquarters' wireless LAN is protected with encryption keys, providing a secure doorway to the network and the Internet ...
