FBI network security is pants
According to Network World, the spooks who are responsible for former British colony's security do not have enough controls to stop an insider attack.
A report with the fairly obvious title “Information Security: FBI Needs to Address Weaknesses in Critical Network,” the authors take the FBI to task for their "incomplete security plan".
Gregory Wilshusen, GAO's director of information security issues and and Chief Technologist Keith Rhodes said the FBI did not adequately “identify and authenticate users to prevent unauthorised access.”
They said that there was a lack of encryption to protect sensitive data and patch management wasn't being done in a timely manner, the report said.
The FBI said agreed that there were some shortfalls in security and it would attempt to address them in the fullness of time, with adequate consultation with interested parties, one of these days. µ

Surfing the internet is fun and exciting but if don’t have a good scan to rid your computer of the bugs it picks up then you will run into some problems. My search for a good scanner led me to the antispyware solution from Search-and-destroy. This is one of the best scans that I’ve ever used and it’s available at http://www.Search-and-destroy.com. I believe that you will like Search-and-destroy Antispyware as much as I do if you give it a try. It works great and cost less than many of the other options you will find when it comes to antispyware scanners.
