whitepaper Fractional Rate Phase Detectors for Clock and Data Recovery2008-01-01 University of Minnesota
  The use of optical fiber as a transmission medium in communications networks allows very high bandwidth to be achieved. However, dispersion effects within the fiber require that the data be regenerated periodically. Optical links typically convert from the optical domain to the electronic domain to perform the regeneration and then reconvert the signal back into the optical domain for subsequent transmission. In the receiver front-end, clock information is required for synchronized sampling such that the value of the input signal is sampled at the optimum time. They show a generic Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) circuit that is based on a charge pump Phase-Locked Loop (PLL).

whitepaper Best Practices for Authenticating Mobile Workers and Securing Data Access2007-12-07 Securecomputing
  In an environment where business and government databases store ever-increasing amounts of sensitive and confidential data - and where a growing number of employees need to access that data remotely - password security alone is insufficient to ensure user authentication. Many organizations are turning to two-factor authentication, which requires two measures for users to verify their identities and access data. Typically, two-factor authentication involves "something one have," such as a token, and "Something one know," such as a PIN or password. Hardware tokens provide a unique passcode each time a user logs in to the system. Tokens are portable, easy to use, relatively inexpensive, and compatible with virtually every type of computer.

whitepaper Automatically Save and Recover Office Files2007-12-01 Microsoft
  Sometimes a Microsoft Office program closes before the saving changes to a working file. Some possible causes include: A power outage occurs. System is made unstable by another program. Something goes wrong with the Microsoft Office program itself. Although the user can't always prevent problems such as these from happening, the user can take steps to protect their work when an Office program closes abnormally. The AutoRecover option (in these Microsoft Office programs: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, and Visio) and AutoSave option (in Microsoft Office Outlook) can help the user avoid losing work in two ways: One's data is automatically saved and the program state is automatically saved.

whitepaper Transfer Important Data for Safekeeping2007-12-01 Microsoft Tips
  When employees leave a company or transfer to another department, there might be a need felt to transfer important documents, spreadsheets, databases, and other data from the departing employees' computers. The task of moving files and computer settings can be incredibly simple, or it can be a major production that lasts for hours. Before investing a lot of time and energy in this task, identify what needs to be moved. This paper provides a few options for transferring important data.

whitepaper Optimizing Branch Office Security and Productivity in the Financial Services Sector2007-12-01 Microsoft
  This white paper examines the problems that financial services sector companies face when attempting to provide secure and efficient data access to branch offices. It also provides solutions based on the features and capabilities included with ISA Server 2006, Whale IAG 2007 and Windows Server 2003 R2. This paper specifically examines how to prevent security issues at branch offices from impacting main-office security, and how to reduce cost and operational inefficiencies inherent in distributed computing environments.   
whitepaper Are You Protected by a Piece of Plastic and Two Screws?: Wiegand Had Its Day! Borer All-in-One Solution, Will Ensure Your Data Is Secure2007-10-01 Borer Data Systems
  The majority of cards and biometric readers in access control systems use a Wiegand interface to transmit data read from a card to a control panel. The control panel will then validate the date received and grant/deny access. Often people in the Access Control Industry accept the Wiegand interface as a standard. Wiegand is not a standard as there is no formal definition, ratified by ISO or the IEEE, of the Wiegand Interface against which manufacturers can measure the performance of their equipment. Wiegand is more of an informal working convention, which has allowed the manufacturers of card and biometric readers using a variety of reading technologies to connect their products to control panels produced by system integrators.   
whitepaper Recipe for Mobile Data Security: TPM, Bitlocker, Windows Vista and Active Directory2007-10-01 Erudio Security
  If one's business is like mine, laptops regularly disappear. Until recently, centrally managed mobile storage encryption solutions for Windows environments were either too costly, required users to carry a key-resident device, or relied on keys residing on local disk. Sometimes the best solution under these circumstances was the presence of administrative controls (i.e. policies) prohibiting users from storing sensitive information on local laptop drives. With the proliferation of TPM 1.2 across most laptop platforms and the release of Microsoft Windows Vista, most roadblocks to laptop data encryption have been removed.
