Larrabee leakage...
Blog A quick update on the Larrabee many-core processor that Intel says will get the standard architecture running at teraflops in the next couple of years. The cores (or tiles, which seems to be a new alternative name for the same thing) will talk to...

Mobile Encryption is not Enough
Blog Every instance of data leakage through a mobile device is a two-step process: firstly, uncontrolled data transfer from a corporate server/host-based resource to the device and, secondly, further unauthorized transfer of this data from the device...

USB drives: Useful tool or security nightmare?
News With these devices, corporations' biggest worry about data leakage is not that some disgruntled employee will copy data to the drive and sell it to a competitor - discontented workers can already do that with 3.5-inch floppy disks, writeable CDs...

Encryption: Turn It On, Turn It On, Turn It On Again
Talkback Whether data was lost by the Government or a contractor, without implementing the necessary security procedures to protect data in transit, data leakage will continue, exposing thousands of innocent people to identity theft.
