A true security system cannot be so fragile: Canon Original Data Security broken…

What is a Web browser for you? It’s virtually a whole world, all together: web sites, blogging, photo and video sharing, social networks, instant messaging, shopping… did I forget anything? Oh yes, logins and passwords. 🙂  Set an account here, sign in there, register here and sing up there – everywhere you need logins and passwords to confirm your identity.

Although this new book is on sale from January this year, we are happy to officially say our words of gratitude to Kevin Beaver and advise it to you.

XKCD posted quite nice comics with a reallife problem behind them. It is very likely that some Web-services do as described, either sell such info to third parties or use it for evil purposes. Our recommendation is if you cannot trust some of the websites, choose another unique password for them. It would be even wiser if you had different passwords for all websites you visit. Some even unimportant websites can aslo be cracked and even if they (better to say your data stored there) have no value at all, your password, can be tried for Facebook or LinkedIn, hopefully in vain.

Hello! Yet again, we have launched a survey on password usage behavior.

ElcomSoft always have yet another pair of eyes for your privacy… 🙂

So, they are back from CCFC  (Beijing) where Vladimir, Andrew, and Dmitry made their speeches and listened to those given by other reps.  Here is a follow-up of the conference with nice shots kindly taken by a keen “shooter” Dmitry Sklyarov 😉 But first of all, we’d like to thank Sprite Guo for taking care of all preparations and perfect managing throughout the whole conference – our BIG thank you!

Back from summer holidays? Suntanned, full of energy, had a good time? And worried about your bank account balance? Don’t strain your nerves unnecessarily, rather keep your business flourishing. We say that your money will return like a homing pigeon back to you! Keep your windows wide open
