Review: Flagstone Encrypted Hard Disk

Review: Flagstone Encrypted Hard Disk

Securing data when it leaves an organisation is always a problem. Despite user education, a laptop can all too easily be left in a cab and, if not properly secure, information is left in the clear for all to see. Even when software encryption is used, there is still a chance that it can be decrypted.

Review: LC5

Review: LC5

This product being the latest version of L0phtcrack is euphemistically called a password auditing and recovery tool. It is known to others as a fantastic password hash cracker for Windows. And while the new name makes it sound more like a seminal Detroit rock band of the late 60's, the latest version hopes to kick out the competition with a array of new features.

User Administration with Active Directory

User Administration with Active Directory

Keeping an organization safe from potential security breaches and costly downtime involves knowing who has access to what parts of the infrastructure and how changes were made to group policies or to user account information. Many IT organizations have already made the long journey from legacy systems to Active Directory (AD) or are well on their way. Having spent time preparing for the pitfalls and pains of migrations, corporations have often forgotten why they set forth on the journey in the first place. The promise of Active Directory has always been to lower the costs of user administration, but sometimes it is unclear how best to achieve these ends. For many organizations, the two most overlooked areas are group policies and the secure delegation of tasks.

Managing Information Security in Modern Commercial Environments, Part 2 – A Pro-Active Approach

Managing Information Security in Modern Commercial Environments, Part 2 – A Pro-Active Approach

In the first article of this series, we identified and provided examples of the types of issues that need to be resolved if organisations are to correctly manage risk in the area of information security. If we combine the impact of these trends and issues with the fact that most enterprises are being forced to cut costs in order to remain competitive the true magnitude of the problem becomes apparent. Simply put, information security managers have to secure more complex environments, faster and using less resources.

There is a saying that Alaska is what America used to be and in a way this product from Anchorage-based software firm Juzt-Reboot Technology is a bit like what software used to be. Opening up the package reveals a parallel port dongle and installation had an old-fashioned look to it.
