Story: iPods are security risk, warns analyst
Posted by: Øyvind S (Tuesday 6 July 2004, 1:49 PM)
Lets not forget to mock Gartner for their incredible "research".
Is it really possible for a worker to take sensitive date out and damaging software in, using removable devices?
Noo .. what a huge, new and scary "threat".
This is probably the next headline:
"Printers, xerox and fax-machines and the like are everywhere nowadays. Giving your staff free rein to use them at work could lead to breaches of security and loss of data"
" This underlying vulnerability has existed since the release of Microsoft Windows 2000 "
hehe
" Adopt personal firewalls to limit what can be done on USB ports. "
yeah, that makes sense
