Encrypt (almost) anything

It's all too easy to neglect data security, especially for a small business.
While bigger organizations have IT departments, service contracts, and
enterprise hardware, smaller companies frequently rely on consumer software,
which lacks the same sort of always-on security functionality.

Reduce Data Protection Complexity

Choosing the right data protection solution should not add to the complexity and
challenges of meeting the everyday demands of the business. Data protection can
be simple to deploy, use and fit into IT's budget, but more importantly make
systems, applications and data available 24/7.

Exposure of files on unsecured wireless no excuse to search, judge rules

An individual who inadvertently exposes the contents of his computer over an
unsecured wireless network still has a reasonable expectation of privacy against
a search of those contents by the police, a federal judge in Oregon ruled last
week.

Darlene Storm: Student expelled for hacking after re-testing security hole in Omnivox college portal


Since when is a test account, not for testing purposes? When pen testing web
applications against an Omnivox student portal test server without previous
authorization? Next, if a privacy law prohibits mentioning details about
students, yet a college explicitly mentions a student by name while defending
its position, has that college broken the law? Dawson College student Ahmed
Al-Khabaz was first patted on the back for responsible disclosure of a security
hole in the Omnivox student and faculty portal. Yet when he re-tested on a test
server to see if the flaws were fixed, Al-Khabaz was expelled from college.

Twitter flaw gave private message access to third-party apps, researcher says

Users who signed into third-party Web or mobile applications using their Twitter
accounts might have given those applications access to their Twitter private
"direct" messages without knowing it, according to Cesar Cerrudo, CTO of
IOActive.
