Prison data makes the great escape
Posted in podcast on
In this week’s podcast we ask how data on 84,000 prisoners, as well as details of ex-convicts, found its way on to an unencrypted USB stick, in the latest in what looks like a long series of data breaches. Also on security, we look at facial recognition trials at Manchester Airport: exactly what are the security benefits of this latest biometrics scheme?
Meanwhile, on the hardware front, we cover the latest stories from Intel’s Developer Forum, which has just wrapped up in in San Francisco, and look at Palm’s latest smartphone offering, the Treo Pro. Is it enough to keep the company up there with Apple, RIM, HTC and Nokia?
