7 Steps For Better Information Technology and Systems Security
1. All IT users must be aware of
the risks.
If IT users are not aware of the
risks, it is unlikely they will do something to enhance security. The first
line of defense is knowledge. The risks are internal and external, and

Healthy Eating With Heart Healthy Diets
Aware that you could also get it when you are in your
late 30's. Are you surprised? Why not? You must be eating too much of food that
contains saturated fat or your body is not able to handle the stress you are
under. Therefore, here are some heart healthy diet guidelines that will help
you cut down the risk of a heart attack. First of all you should cut down on
fats by cutting down on the amount of oil used in food preparations. Try to eat
grilled, baked, or boiled food which requires very little oil or no oil for
cooking. Also, instead of using butter for toppings, use yoghurt to reduce
saturated fats.
Instead of butter, margarine can also be used. If you cannot prepare vegetables without oil, try using olive oil. Olive oil contains unsaturated fats and antioxidants. Eat fresh fruits and avoid canned fruits, as they are high in sodium, which increases the blood pressure. Instead of drinking full fat milk, drink skimmed milk. Eat daily meals in moderation.

Recent losses of personal data held on discs, laptops
and USB keys by governments and companies have highlighted the need for better
security. Here Dan Simmons looks to see if biometrics can help.
As the name implies biometrics is all about using a
measurable biological characteristic, such as a fingerprint or iris pattern, to
identify an individual.
And the field is not confined to gross physical
characteristics such as facial features, more subtle measures - such as the way
a person walks - can also be used to identify individuals.
Researchers at the University of Southampton have won
funding from UK and US governments to establish this form of biometrics.
They claim their gait recognition system is 99%
accurate when identifying people.
