London, UK: Internet security provider ESET has carried out a survey of London taxi drivers which has revealed that 190,000 mobile phones are left in the back of the city’s taxis every year, highlighting the need for businesses and individuals to back-up, encrypt and password protect their devices in the event of it falling into the wrong hands, and the data being stolen, compromised or abused.
LONDON, UK: As the US Department of Defense (DoD) closes the competitive bidding process on its $11 billion Defense Healthcare Management System Modernization (DHMSM) programme, lawmakers remain skeptical about the 10-year project’s ability to deliver, according to an analyst with research and consulting firm GlobalData.
Bovington: The Tank Museum announces the launch of its latest exhibition, ‘Fury’, sponsored generously by Wargaming. Opening its turret doors on the 20th of October, the exhibition tells the story of the museum’s integral involvement with the making of David Ayer’s visionary film, Fury, which bursts onto cinema screens across the UK on the 22nd of October. The movie casts two of The Tank Museum’s exhibits: the world’s only working Tiger 131 tank and the eponymous Fury Sherman M4 tank, in a tale of overwhelming odds deep behind enemy lines in the last days of the Second World War.
Dubai/London: Increasing numbers of employees work from home or while on the move. As a result, the need for remote access solutions is growing. And when networks are accessed remotely it is particularly important to verify the identity of users in order to prevent unauthorised access. Instead of having to acquire expensive additional tokens and thus invest in further hardware, it makes sense for companies and organisations to make use of the award-winning SecurAccess tokenless technology. The solution unambiguously verifies identities using devices such as smartphones. SecurEnvoy has developed and has been granted a patent for this method, and the manufacturer will be presenting SecurAccess at the GITEX Technology Week in the Dubai World Trade Centre, from 12th to 16th October.
