Update iOS Now, Malicious Attacks Coming Soon Posted: 12 Aug 2010 09:00 AM PDT Apple released updates yesterday for iOS on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch to patch flaws that were exploited by the JailbreakMe hack. The author of the JailbreakMe hack responded by making the JailbreakMe source code public--providing malicious developers with the tools they need to attack the iPhone or iPad. The race is on to apply the Apple iOS updates before malicious exploits start circulating.

In an emergency, would you tweet for help? Posted: 12 Aug 2010 09:00 AM PDT In an emergency would you dial 911 or would you turn to Twitter and Facebook for help? You might be surprised by the results of a new Red Cross survey.

Facebook, Germany still at an impasse over data collection Posted: 12 Aug 2010 09:00 AM PDT Facebook officials met with Hamburg's Data Protection Authority on Thursday, but the two entities are still at loggerheads over how the social-networking site collects the information of unregistered users.

Do you need network security and privacy loss insurance? Posted: 12 Aug 2010 09:00 AM PDT If your business manages personal information about health or finances, a security breach can cost millions. HITECH and other regulations not only apply fines, but they require disclosure and notification of those affected. In some cases, companies must pay for free credit reports too. These costs can range from $80 to $200 per compromised record. The problem for many companies is the sheer volume of information that can be compromised in a single breach. If you lose 5,000, 50,000 or 500,000 records, the math may mean bankruptcy. Fortunately, you can now get insurance to cover these risks.
