Know how to safeguard your data
Your data and computer equipment will be always at risk. Here are just a few short samples:
| On August 26th a virus was detected at the International Space Station, it was intended to gather personal information and most likely was transferred from an initial software load or from a personal compact flash card. Nasa called the virus a "nuisance" and the news was quickly downplayed. |
|
| Last month, through social engineering, many people downloaded fake Flash updates using links posted on Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. Flash is the most widely deployed software in the world and is mainly used to watch animations and videos from a web browser, but the fake one can make the machine totally unstable |
|
| In the United States, Steven Brill’s Verified Identity Pass, one of the Transportation Security Administration’s Registered Traveler program under the brand name Clear, lost a laptop containing 33,000 registered travelers' names. The laptop containing unencrypted names, addresses, birth dates, driver’s license numbers and passport numbers of customers seeking to enroll in the company’s Registered Traveler program dissapeared on July 26. The laptop was later found but the company's reputation suffered a blow. |
