whitepaper The Importance of Application Security26/03/08 Symantec
  Application security has been a growing discipline in the IT world for about a decade. Not long ago, knowledge about securing applications came from a select few independent researchers, and resources for implementation were scarce. Through the years, more and more resources have become available as security expertise and toolsets have found their way to a wider population of technologists. Over the past five years, general knowledge of application security criteria has widened, making it rare that applications developers do not consider basic security aspects such as authentication and access control, among others.  sponsored by

whitepaper Texas Instruments Case Study: Bonded Warehousing in the UK2005-06-14 03:00:02
  A bonded warehouse in the UK stores expensive single malt whiskies which are subject to theft even by the warehouse employees. Pallets carrying these stocks are also subject to being misplaced in error, thus delaying on-time deliveries. To prevent these problems, it was necessary to ensure that forklift trucks moving pallets would pass correctly along pre-set routes. Deviations might mean that employees were taking product off to a hiding location intentionally for later theft, or were just misplacing stock in error. To create this security system, the company built a grid of transponders suspended from the ceiling. The forklift trucks are equipped with RFID readers.

whitepaper ADLINK and Teja Deliver CompactPCI Networking Platform Built on Intel IXP2400 Network Processor2005-06-15 03:00:01
  For developers at ADLINK, the initial premise was to design a highly integrated, standards-based, flexible hardware platform capable of doing ATM-to-IP (Gigabit Ethernet) internetworking in a CompactPCI environment. ADLINK developers faced two key design challenges, the first being the ability to process packet-based data at line rates of up to 2.5 Gigabits per second (Gbps). Second, because ADLINK intended for its new board to be used in multiple applications, developers needed flexible silicon that would support a variety of interfaces. Developers at ADLINK chose the Intel IXP2400 network processor as the core technology for the company's latest 6U CompactPCI peripheral card - the PICMG 2.16-compliant cPCI-6240 Series Network Processor Blade.
