16.10.2008Symantec Rolls Out Internet Security 2008
The growing problem of identity theft is a key focus of the 2008 versions of
Symantec's
Norton Internet Security and Antivirus programs, released on Tuesday. The Cupertino, California-based company said that the packages, designed for
Windows XP and Windows Vista, feature enhanced protection against identity theft and other online security threats.
A new Norton
feature, Identity Safe, allows users to control what information is shared with a Web site. It stores and encrypts passwords and other confidential
data until needed, and automatically fills in passwords and Web forms. This feature is designed to protect against keystroke loggers -- hidden malware
that secretly captures keystrokes, then transmits the data to a remote attacker.
Identity Safe embodies some of the ideas in
Symantec's Identity Initiative. First announced in January, the Initiative is an attempt by Symantec to address what Forrester analyst Natalie
Lambert called the "huge problem" of identity theft. According to Symantec, 53 percent of Internet users no longer give personal information to Web
sites because of identity theft fears, and 14 percent have stopped paying bills online. ..

08.01.2008Microsoft's Geneva Server: Hailstorm done right

31.10.2008National ID? How about a global ID?
The Federation for Identity
and Cross-Credentialing
Systems (
FiXs) --
a little-known group of
non-profits, government
contractors, commercial
entities, and government
agencies -- has just unveiled
a first-of-its-kind global
infrastructure to support
distributed, integrated
identity management and
cross-credentialing across
organizations.
The implementation
combines several existing
security technologies along
with a set of trusted models,
policies, and operating rules
to insure the accurate
identity of personnel
accessing physical sites or
logical systems.
Already in a pilot
mode at a handful of
government agencies and
defense contractors, the FiXs
identity management initiative
does not have a hard date for
broad deployment, although the
impediments do not appear to
be technical. "The cultural
gap with the public in general
is still too wide," said Dr.
Mike Mestrovich, president of
FiXs. "I think there would
have to be a public consensus
to move us in that direction
and I don't see that
happening until at least 2009
or beyond."

10.08.2007Bill would let ID theft victims seek restitution
A bipartisan bill that would let victims of identity theft seek restitution for money and time they spent repairing their credit history was
introduced on Tuesday in the Senate.
The legislation would also give federal prosecutors more tools to combat identity theft and
cybercrime, according to sponsors Democrat Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Republican Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania.
Leahy is
chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Specter is the ranking Republican on the panel.
Last year, 8.4 million Americans were
victims of identity theft, and many were left with a bad credit report, which takes months or years to repair, the lawmakers said.
