NETFLASH: BREAKING NEWS FROM NETWORKWORLD.COM

By Sheryl Hodge

EMC Tuesday announced that it has begun offering a package
geared to manage and analyze surveillance data. The company's
decision reflects a greater focus within the IT industry not
only on software security but on physical security as well, and
comes as EMC continues its effort to branch out from storage
into other sectors such as research management and physical
security data analysis.

DKIM fights phishing and e-mail forgery

E-mail fraud is a global problem that plagues consumers and

technology expenditures, lost productivity and network downtime.
With phishing attacks on the rise, leading companies are working

from e-mail fraud. DomainKeys Identified Mail, or DKIM, is one
such e-mail authentication protocol.
