Editor's Note: Top 10 Topics For 2006
Welcome to a special edition of Compliance Pipeline Newsletter.
As the new year begins, TechWeb has joined forces with sister
publications InformationWeek and Network Computing to bring you the
latest and best stories on 10 of the hottest technology topics ... such
as Firefox and IE 7, Windows Vista, wireless broadband, VoIP, spyware
and phishing, open source, and more.
Let's face it; it's impossible to demonstrate compliance with most
regulations and privacy laws if phishers are gaining access to your
systems or spyware is running rampant on your network. Network
Computing's
Spyware & Phishing Center delivers the latest news of threats and
anti-spyware and anti-phishing products, plus hands-on product reviews
and tutorials on strategies for protecting your organization from such
malware.
Even if you don't suspect that your network is infected, it never hurts
to be sure. Learn from the experts
how spyware works, how to select the right
anti-spyware tools, and how to safely
clean out your systems -- before it becomes a compliance problem in
addition to a security issue.
Be sure to check the Spyware & Phishing Center frequently -- we'll be
adding new stories regularly.
I'd encourage you to scan the other technology centers as well. We've
carefully selected the most useful articles from across the TechWeb
Network to bring you up to speed on hottest technology topics.
