Reports of the death of privacy abound, but they're premature. There are certainly those who, on the sly, would seek its demise, for privacy tends to get in their way.

Every year brings it’s challenges - although I think it's fair to say that we enter 2010 with perhaps slightly more optimism than 2009. Nevertheless, economic trends, political events, responses to the banking crisis and technology devlopments are beginning to shape the risk agenda for 2010. Here’s my perspective on some of the issues that are

I’m interrupting my series of 2009 mega-trends and 2010 projections to discuss the current situation in cybercrime. What a crazy week. First Google says it is prepared to pull its business out of China after cybercriminals used Trojans to hack into Gmail accounts of anti-Chinese government human rights activists. Then it becomes clear over 30 corp...

“Subramaniam went to great trouble to hide his activity. He seems to have thought that carrying data around on memory sticks and using internet cafes would somehow protect him from scrutiny.
