But this is a technology column and the underlying issue -- society's tendency to blame modern-day bad deeds on technology instead of the bad-deed doers -- is an important one.

Newsletter points to European perspectives | Network World

Guide to enterprise password management drafted | Network World

I hate passwords. I think passwords are a dreadful way of authenticating identity: they cost a lot, they change too often (and so users write them down), the rules for preventing dictionary and brute-force attacks are generally easy for users to circumvent, there are too many of them (and so users write them... oh never mind), and nothing can stop users from writing them down (and sticking them in their wallets, under their keyboards, behind their screens, in their desk drawers...). And yet we constantly h

Convergence: Not hip, still happening | Network World

Definitions are fun. Melanie Turek, a specialist in collaboration technologies, likes to remind folks that one of Webster's dictionary meanings of collaboration is, "to cooperate with the enemy."

Time to stop spam | Network World

[Note from M. E. Kabay: My good friend and colleague Stephen Cobb sent me this good news about progress in the fight against spam. Introducing delays into network responses is a well-established approach to interfering with automated attacks; for example, automated dictionary attacks on passwords via logon interactions can be stymied by a two- or three-minute delay every few wrong-guesses. I’m glad to see someone implementing this technique to deal with the wretched people who are abusing the ‘Net with

GAO slams FCC on junk fax processing | Network World

Geeks like acronyms. Various sources (e.g., Computer Desktop Encyclopedia, The Jargon File, and the Geek Dictionary) define lots of three-letter acronyms (TLA) and other abbreviations used by geeks. In that spirit, I can write that Yet Another Junk Fax (YAJF) appeared on my machine a few days ago, this time touting Yet Another Junk Stock (YAJS) and presumably aimed at Yet Another Gullible Fool (YAGF) stupid enough to spend money on information sent illegally by criminals.
