Identifiers and Authentication - Smart Credential Choices to Protect Digital Identity | 2009-09-25 | Smart Card Alliance |
| In a digital age, the reality is that simple identifiers (e.g., e-mail addresses, login names, and identification numbers) are used without any protection and should be considered public information even though they point to a specific individual. In addition to the increase in public exposure of such data, the provisions of ownership of personal identifiers have not been effectively addressed, and there is a lack of legal infrastructure today to ensure the privacy of such information.

Security Separation of Multi-Core Processors | 2009-09-22 | CPU Technology |
| The semiconductor industry has arguably reached the point where security is not just an application level requirement, but a processor level requirement as well. A small but specialized industry has addressed several government needs for high speed classified processing, but more is needed. Specialized ASIC design with electromagnetic and air 'Gaps' is becoming an expensive and highly constrained approach, and more tools are needed. The first tools to enable this data separation have been in software and operating systems, but rounding out that portfolio is a reconfigurable multi-core firewall capability in the Acalis secure processor.
