SECURITY CONCERNS TO STUNT E-COMMERCE GROWTH

Security concerns are eroding Internet users' confidence and having
such a chilling effect on their online behavior that U.S.
business-to-consumer sales will grow more slowly than expected in coming
years, Gartner warned this week.

EXCLUSIVE: CODEASSURE 2.0 SEEKS OUT SECURITY HOLES IN YOUR SOFTWARE

The regular release of software patches to protect applications from
hackers suggests that safety from malicious attacks remains a difficult
and elusive goal. Part of the problem is that security is not wired into
software developers' thinking the same way quality and usability
are. Application security only emerged as a key issue once internal
applications were exposed via the Web to all passers-by, including
crackers and miscreants.

HERE WE GO AGAIN -- MORE CONSUMERS IN JEOPARDY

CardSystems Solutions, a payment processor, has apparently exposed
approximately 40 million credit and debit card accounts. I would say
"Here we go again" or "I told you so" at yet another security breach,
but at this point, it's just getting repetitious.

MICROSOFT'S WEB SITE DOES HAVE COMPLIANCE COVERED

Recently, a fellow IT geek was complaining about Microsoft's lack of
information regarding the compliance bogeyman. His face flushed, he
practically spit the last drops of his beer across the table at me,
snapping "Where is Microsoft's Sarb-Ox [Sarbanes-Oxley] compliance
guide? You can't find anything on their site."

EXPERTS SPLIT ON PORT 445 SECURITY RISK

More than a week after Microsoft patched 10 security flaws in its
software, security experts are offering differing views on whether an
attack that exploits one of these flaws may be brewing.

======================================================================

PATCHES ISSUED FOR CRITICAL REALPLAYER FLAWS

RealNetworks has issued patches to four vulnerabiliites in its
RealPlayer media software, some of which could allow an attacker to run
unauthorized code on the user's computer.

HOTMAIL TAKES A TOUGHER STANCE ON SPAM

Microsoft is throwing the full weight of Hotmail behind its Sender ID
e-mail authentication technology by sidelining incoming mail when it
fails to pass a Sender ID check.

PRODUCT GUIDE: CODEASSURE SUITE 2.0

CodeAssure Suite 2.0 is an excellent static source-code analyzer. Its
accuracy is stellar, but it is limited to Java and C code, and it ships
exclusively as a plug-in to Eclipse. Both limitations keep it from
realizing its full potential.
