LexisNexis Suddenly Notices Massive Data
Security Breaches Everywhere They Look

LexisNexis Suddenly Notices Massive Data
Security Breaches Everywhere They Look 04/12/2005 06:01 AM
Funny how once the media attention for the various computer security break-ins started receiving attention, the various firms who were caught handing out your private data suddenly noticed that they'd actually been leaking data all along. Choicepoint, which was the first big one to admit a problem, later found a histo ry of leaked data. It appears they're not alone. LexisNexis, whose Seisant subsidiary wasn't particularly careful in how it kept all that data about you that you didn't realize they had (much of it, probably wrong ), decided that maybe it would be a smart move to look over some past transactions to see if this data leakage was a new problem. Turns out that it wasn't. LexisNexis is now admitting that they found not one or two more cases, but fifty-nine cases where their security was breached, opening up access to all sorts of private data (this is one of the databases the government likes to use to build profiles on people). The company is sending out letters to 280,000 people to let them know that they may have to spend the rest of their lives carefully scanning credit reports to make sure the company's own negligence didn't result in identity theft. Meanwhile, everyone's still being told that, basically, there 's nothing they can do against any of these firms that didn't seem to care about your privacy at all.

Airport security and laptops

Airport security and laptops 08/14/2004 01:30 PM

Every time you go through security you take out all the crap from your pockets, take off your shoes (hope you're wearing clean socks), take off the coat, and take out the laptop. Then it all goes in those plastic buckets and then on the screener belt, and comes out the other end, bumping down a short incline and slamming into a steel wall at moderate speed. Now your shoes were built to take this kind of abuse, but what about the laptop?

The ThinkPad, which has a reputation for durability has developed some kind of fracture, where my left wrist rests as I write, right above the slots for PCMCIA cards which are almost obsolete now that USB has become the universal connecting standard. Perhaps this is a weak spot in the current design of laptops? Maybe laptop designers need to build more rugged machines now that the TSA has singled them out for special treatment? Anyway, it's just a matter of time before my laptop is totally broken, it seems. I wonder if anyone else who travels by air with a laptop (seemingly everyone who travels these days) shares this concern?

Biometric airport security

Biometric airport security 04/29/2004 04:16 PM
Buying biometrically into big brother? Privium is an IBM-backed pay service at Amsterdam's Schipho l Airport that allows passengers to identify themselves by iris recognition and thus speed their way through security checks. This being the privacy-respecting Netherlands, the biometric information is not stored in a central database, but only on a card you carry with you; other countries may not be so enlightened. This could well become a standard form of identification. In the meantime, could the failure to buy this service qualify someone as a security or insurance risk?

In his latest Langalist, Fred Langa presents a letter from someone whose pen drive was destroyed by the x-ray scanner at the Cincinnati airport. According to Fred, the powerful magnets used in generating and focusing the x-rays — not the x-rays themselves — were likely the cause of the pen drive’s untimely demise. The incident points up that we tend to forget how delicate some of these devices are….

Computer Security Shifting Metaphors:
It's An Airport, Not A Fortress

Computer Security Shifting Metaphors:
It's An Airport, Not A Fortress 11/04/2003 04:07 AM
While some may laugh at anyone spending so much time trying to come up with a metaphor for computer security, it does often influence how people think about certain problems and what solutions they're likely to create. So, it's interesting to read one suggestion that we need to stop thinking of computer security like the machine is a "fortress" and everyone needs to be kept out. Instead, they suggest, it's like an airport - where you let everyone in, but restrict them to certain areas and have security checks along the way. Does this mean I'm going to have to take off my shoes the next time I visit a "secure" site?
