silicon.com Champions ID Protection
silicon.com's new 'Protecting Your ID' special report addresses password best practices, how to avoid falling victim to the various ID theft scams, how to prepare for new data protection laws from 11 December and the issues the UK government faces in introducing a national ID card.
London,UK (PRWEB) December 5 2003--silicon.com has launched its authoritative 'Protecting Your ID' special report. With the web, email and technology in general making it increasingly easier for everyone to go about their business with a tremendous amount of personal information being stored and moved around electronically, just how secure are confidential details?
The public is becoming increasingly concerned about how data is used and abused whether it be CCTV surveillance footage, government databases or credit card details. silicon.com addresses these concerns with the 'Protecting Your ID' special report which covers password best practices, how to avoid falling victim to the various ID theft scams, how to prepare for new data protection laws from 11 December and the issues the UK government faces in introducing a national ID card.
"This report puts the spotlight firmly on personal measures we can take to make sure our data remains our own and we don't fall victim to a range of nefarious activity," said Tony Hallett, editor silicon.com. "It isn't only a matter of ID theft or passwords or biometrics - and this is about much more than Home Secretary Blunkett's ID card plans. It's about raising awareness at an individual level, something which we think will end up also helping UK business."
Privacy concerns and security issues have been highlighted in recent silicon.com stories regarding password security, biometric ID cards, identity theft, spam emails, 419 scams and RFID tags the 21st century barcode which opponents claim will give Big Brother round the clock insight into how we live our lives.
silicon.com will be adding new content to 'Protecting Your ID' over the coming weeks and conducting a reader survey on the subject. This special report can be accessed at: http://www.silicon.com/ID
