Tuesday, July 08, 2003PDA security survey - someone's pocketed my data
 John Leyden over at The Register reports on a survey published by Pointsec Mobile Technologies on PDA security. It makes frightening reading, given that at least 25% of lap top and PDA users have lost one or other of their deveices last year. Downloading the company's sales and contact database onto either of these types of devices without some form of access security seems almost like corporate suicide. Yet that's what the survey says most of us do. Some of us even store the PIN numbers and passwords for other sensitive information on the PDA as well! ecommnet recomend the use of some form of encryption for both Lap Top PCs as well as PDAs, and have recently taken on the SafeGuard PDA and SafeGuard Easy products from Utimaco. posted by Robert Campbell 1:59 PM
