		<description><![CDATA[It is time to put a stop to the latest marketing buzzword – the Cloud – and stop the rebranding madness and the redefinition of something that is already there. This is according to the CTO of Simplexo, the UK search specialist. Simon Bain, CTO, Simplexo, states: “Well I am obviously a believer in using the &#8216;cloud&#8217; as a way forward for both personal and corporate life. However there are certain guidelines that I think need to be adhered to before we all start throwing our hard disks away and placing everything in to the hands of others.” “Let’s be clear &#8211; clouds are fluffy, contain water vapour and sometimes they are not around. That would certainly be no good if we all had our life in one! But seriously the cloud is today’s marketing word, if this were to change tomorrow to a new buzzword with the same meaning; we would all once again be confused. So my first request is STOP.” “What we need to do is drill down and focus on what the cloud is in its simplest form. It is a mechanism to store your files; images, music, movies etc, on-line on somebody else&#8217;s hard disks. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kaspersky Lab, Europe’s leading developer of internet security solutions, has responded to the rapid growth in the number and complexity of malware threats over the last year by upgrading its popular home user products: Kaspersky Internet Security and Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012. The new editions harness the best of both worlds &#8211; cloud-hosted and PC-based protection &#8211; to provide internet users with an unsurpassed level of security. Since Kaspersky Lab launched Internet Security 2011 last summer, malware has become more and more complex and dangerous. Twitter and Facebook attacks have continued, accompanied by the poisoning of search engine results with malicious websites (so called Black Hat SEO). Technology has also evolved; devices have become more advanced and cybercriminals are even more sophisticated. In order to embrace this new reality, Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 and Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012 have been launched, featuring a hybrid combination of protection from cloud and PC-based security technologies. The cloud ensures that new threats can be identified and responded to much faster, drawing on a huge, real-time database of shared intelligence and insight. The security technology installed on the PC protects users when the computer is offline, and from PC-based threats such as USB-stick transmitted infections, malicious [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We entrust so much to our email these days. All our important communications are saved there and we use it as a main communication source for both personal and business communications. So if you were to ever lose control of your Gmail account it would indeed be catastrophic for most people. There are a few things you can do to make sure your Gmail is secure. Your first line of defense is a good and unique password. Do not use children or pet’s names or your name and birthday or anything else that someone who knows you could possibly guess. You should also use something unique that you do not use on any other site. If a 3rd party site you are a member of is hacked and your email address and same password are there you just gave someone easy access to your Gmail account. You can and should check the IP activity on your Gmail account regularly. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page once you are logged in you will see information on the last IP address to have accessed your account if you click on the ‘more details’ link beside that it will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“The Internet is quickly moving to adopt a new technology for the underlying networking used to track nodes on the network and communicate. However, the introduction of the IPv6 scheme could have a far reaching impact on spam security. As an example, the primary method for stopping the majority of spam used by email providers is to track bad IP addresses sending email and block them &#8211; a process known as IP Blacklisting. With IPv6 this technique will no longer be possible and could mean that email systems would quickly become overloaded if new approaches are not developed to address this. This is one example, but there are other examples across the web. “IPv6 has been designed to have a massive amount more IP addresses available than IPv4. We are talking 3.4 x 10^38 compared to 4.3 billion (4.3 x 10^9). Fundamentally, this presents serious difficulties in tracking all of the IPs for any purpose-email sender reputation, denial of service, sources used for malicious sign ups to websites, sources of click fraud attacks, influencing of search engine results, and many other scenarios. “As an example, the address space is so large that it would be easy for spammers to use [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With bullies and sexual predators increasingly moving from the Internet to mobile phones, the new Simply Safe SIM from Anvil Mobile automatically scans every text message sent and received to identify potential risks to children or vulnerable adults. With some 90% of under 16 year olds now owning a mobile phone and 1 in 7 children aged between 11 to 19 claiming to have been bullied by text, the new Anvil solution sends an alert by SMS or email to a parent, guardian or carer if abusive language and possible bullying or predatory behaviour is detected. Unlike PCs or laptops that are often shared and in open spaces, mobile phones are very personal devices that can be always on and not easy to monitor physically &#8211; making them an ideal target for bullies and predators. Simply Safe now offers protection without intrusion or a breakdown of trust. Only text messages that are considered potentially dangerous can be viewed by the parent or guardian when they are alerted to log-in to the secure TxtSafer message site. Future text messages can be blocked from suspect individuals and also stored for possible investigations by the police or schools. Simply Safe is the first [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thales, leader in information systems and communications security, announces that North Dallas Bank &#38; Trust Co. chose Thales hardware security modules (HSMs) to help it move from outsourced PIN verification for ATM and debit transactions. With secure, in-house PIN verification, the bank has enhanced its service to customers with real-time balances while lowering its transaction costs. “Customers want the balance they see online and on ATM receipts to reflect all their transactions, but with outsourced processing, customers had to wait,” says Greg Niemeyer, Executive Vice President of marketing and operations for North Dallas Bank. “Looking at customer service, security, and costs, it made sense to take control of ATM and debit transactions. With Thales HSMs providing security, our customer’s PINs have never been safer.” Prior to implementing in-house PIN verification, North Dallas Bank outsourced its ATM and debit transaction verification processing to a larger bank. Using an HSM-protected process, the larger bank drove PIN verification and sent North Dallas Bank a transaction file detailing activity. To update customer account balances, North Dallas Bank regularly posted the file to its internal systems. Expensive for the bank, outsourced processing also inconvenienced customers because it often took several hours for balances to reflect [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Three major security related events can be pencilled into your diary thus far for 2011. In conjuction with our events page here are the details. The world’s leading Counter Terror Expo will be held on the 19 &#8211; 20 April 2011 at London Olympia, London, UK. Infosecurity Europe, where information security professionals address the challenges of today whilst preparing for those of tomorrow will be taking place on the 19 &#8211; 21 April 2011 at Earls Court, London, UK. With the above two events taking place over the same timeframe it going to be a busy few days. For those travelling to these events from afar I feel it&#8217;s quite convenient to have these running not far from each other in London. The final confirmed event taking place is the Transport Security Expo and Conference which will take place 13 – 14 September 2011, at Olympia, London, UK. Keep track of our events page for further additions in 2011. As our final post of 2010 we would like to finish by wishing all our readers a safe and secure 2011, thanks for you continued support.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cut-Tex® PRO, the world’s strongest cut resistant textile is now being used to manufacture slash resistant windbreaker and other cut resistant clothing for security professionals. PPSS Group, the company behind Cut-Tex® PRO have developed cut and slash resistant windbreakers in order to improve the personal safety of security professionals and reduce the risk of workplace violence related injuries. “This incredibly lightweight and breathable fabric will now allow us to manufacture standard and bespoke slash resistant clothing, using it either as inner or outer layer”, says Robert Kaiser, CEO of PPSS Group. Security professionals all over the world are frequently dealing with potentially hostile members of the public. John Portis, Managing Director of New Zealand based Trojan Security said: “New laws around the world are aimed to make sure that we are left with good, trustworthy and professional security operatives. Now we have to do our part of the bargain and make sure these guys are safe while on duty, and slash resistant clothing using Cut-Tex® PRO will certainly be of great help”. An increase in anti social behaviour and a noticeable lack of respect is making the job of true security professionals ever so difficult. Peter Fagerlund, CEO of Seas [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) has selected managed security company, Redscan (formerly Network Box UK), to provide a unified security solution which will protect the College from all online threats. The College required a network security solution that would provide: a secure, robust firewall; web and email scanning and filtering; and the ability to establish a demilitarised zone (DMZ) for guests of the College to use. Julia Allmark, IT Manager, RCR, says: “We were particularly attracted to Redscan by the firewall management element where changes can be requested and instantly implemented without compromising security. The proactive updates and 24 hour monitoring are also of great benefit to the College as we know that whenever a problem arises, Redscan will be working on the solution.” The unified solution provided by Redscan replaces a collection of network security solutions provided by several different companies, with different suppliers managing the ISA server, the back up of the ISA server, mail scanning and firewall management. As Julia Allmark says: “We found it very difficult to pinpoint the causes of problems as and when they occurred &#8211; which sometimes resulted in longer downtime. Now that we use Redscan to manage all of these systems, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Businesses must appreciate that sociological and behavioural changes impact network security if security management is to keep pace with new threats, according to a free guide by managed security company, Redscan. The guide, ‘The Future of Network Security’, looks at the trends in behavioural changes that will impact security, including: virtual working and increase use of cloud-based services; the increased use of social applications at work and the massive drain they cause on corporate bandwidth; businesses trusting their corporate data to third party cloud-based services like Google Docs; and the increase in use of unified communications by companies. It goes on to detail the main security responses that companies will have to implement to respond to these changes, including: securing data in the cloud; maintaining data protection; stronger identity management for remote worker access; securing against social applications, P2P software and VOIP; an increase use in managed security services as budgets constrict; and a re-focus on encryption technologies as privacy concerns continue to be a primary concern of Internet users. Simon Heron, Internet Security Analyst, Redscan says: “Securing a network is as much about anticipating future needs as it is defending against current threats. Businesses need to be aware of [...]]]></description>
