Developing FIPS 140-validated Solutions for the Federal Government Using RSA BSAFE Software
The U.S. House of Representatives' Committee on Government Reform recently released the 2005 edition of its Federal Information Security Management Act report card. Unfortunately, the news was not good. The 25 major government agencies reported 15% of the IT systems remained uncertified/unaccredited while 6 agencies lacked effective corrective action plans, illustrating little improvement in the level of information security compared to previous reports.

Zeroing in on targeted advertising
The research company comScore conducted an analysis of Internet companies that collect data on consumers. By examining the routes computers travel along the lines of the Internet, companies are better able to zero in on specific consumer interests. That ability to hand pick likely customers has generated the interest of advertisers, who obviously want to display their promotional materials only to promising purchasers.
