Mobile location data 'present anonymity risk'

This is not really surprising, but it is interesting to see some real data. Anonymised data isn't particularly anonymous. If you think about your activities on a daily basis certain things would be pretty obvious based on your cell location data. It would likely be trivial to pinpoint your house and your place of work. It might also be easy to figure out where you get on and off of the bus, where you park your car, places you like to go for lunch etc.

94% of Healthcare Organizations Breached - BackgroundCheck.org

This is a really interesting info-graphic. 46% of breaches were for lost or stolen computing devices. That tells me that 46% of these losses could have been easily prevented by encrypting the data.

So I used to Have This Blog...

...then things got really busy (I think) and I stopped updating it. I think I'm going to start it up again. I'm going to be writing for Internet Evolution (first post coming next week) and I think this will be good for me to get the ideas flowing. I'm a WordPress guy and so I don't think I'll keep it here for ever and in fact I'm thinking I'll probably move it to my own domain (now currently hosting my photo blog). However, for now I'm going to continue to use Blogger and I'll see how things go. Stay tuned for, well, stuff.
