Senate delays, maybe kills, cybersecurity bill

The U.S. Senate on Thursday failed to end debate on a comprehensive
cybersecurity bill, pushing action on the bill into September and potentially
killing it.

An Interactive eGuide: Bring Your Own Device

BYOD brings some concerns, blurring the line between personal and corporate use
raises security, compliance, and ownership issues. Does the BYOD trend actually
make workers more productive, or is IT simply caving in to employee demand?

Richi Jennings: Facebook 'sponsored stories' privacy proposal: Farcical fiasco


Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) is again under fire over its privacy-preventing 'sponsored
stories' advertising scheme. This time, by a federal judge: A class-action
settlement is being criticized because it doesn't actually compensate any of the
victims and it doesn't allow adults to opt out of involuntarily appearing in
these wretched ads! In IT Blogwatch, bloggers tear out their hair in frustration
over Facebook's continued flouting of basic privacy norms.

INSIDER: The state of network security

Network security is still as necessary as it was 15 years ago when the Black Hat
Conference was first beginning. Sure the players have changed and the
sophistication, but it is a classic good vs. evil scenario still.
