Getting forensics data off of smartphones and tablets can be tough, experts say

Trying to get computer forensics data out of mobile smartphones and tablets in
order to conduct investigations is hard -- often much harder than on PCs,
laptops or Macs -- and experts say that forensics tools need to improve.
http://cwonline.computerworld.com/t/8286224/823929840/587631/0/

How IT can prepare for mobile forensic investigations

If your IT security team must comply with regulations like PCI-DSS or HIPAA, you
need to know who accesses your data and what they do with it, even if they're
using a mobile device to do it. But performing forensic investigations on mobile
devices is trickier than it is on PCs.

Darlene Storm: Pacemaker hacker says worm could possibly 'commit mass murder'

After security researcher Barnaby Jack showed how an attacker with a laptop,
located up to 50 feet from a victim, could remotely hack a pacemaker and deliver
a deadly 830-volt shock, Jack talked about how an attacker could create
malicious firmware that could potentially be like a "worm with the ability to
commit mass murder." Meanwhile, a government panel found that medical equipment
in hospitals are running old operating systems 'riddled' with malware.

After Congress' report, what next for China's tech firms?

A recent House intelligence report will bring more scrutiny to joint efforts and
agreements by U.S. and China technology companies at least, but trade problems
can't be ruled out either.

Aha!

This pilot fish is responsible for the firewall, so it makes sense when his
supervisor asks if fish has stopped any Internet traffic going to a particular
workstation. No, says fish -- but there's clearly a problem.
