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?

More TSA fun -- robot-brained airport
security worker makes mother place
infant on ground 01/22/2004 02:46 AM
Airport security tells a Mom to put her infant on the ground so they can check for a bomb in her bra.

That rule about not holding a baby during a search--what is up with that?? Believe me, I am fully capable of holding my child far enough from my body to get that little wand where it needs to go, but there was just no negotiating a compromise. I had a purple, writhing, screaming baby, a toddler, and a preschooler with me, not to mention a double stroller clogging up the gate, and in the end I actually had to put the baby on the ground so that they could put me in the off-balance stance, search me, and invesitgate the wire in my bra.

DVD Jon reopens iTunes access

DVD Jon reopens iTunes access 03/23/2005 05:21 PM
Less than a day after Apple closed the security hole that allowed software to disable its iTunes Music Store digital rights management system, the author redesigned the code to work around the block. The PyMusique software was introduced last week by Norwegian hacker DVD Jon, as a copy protection-free back door into the popular iTunes store. DVD Jon has now teamed up with Cody Brocious to rewrite the code to work around Apple's new block. "This version uses the crypto from iTunes 4.7 to allow it to work again," Brocious said in his blog. "If people want a Windows version enough I'm sure someone will release it, but we won't release an official Windows version any longer. Now, go buy music!"
