CHAPTER OF THE WEEK:  'Building your defense strategy'
The old Windows 2000 Encrypting File System (EFS) received a substantial update in Windows .NET, but there are many gotchas to be aware of. This chapter, from the book "Windows Internet Security: Protecting Your Critical Data," by Cyrus Peikari, provides a thorough walk-through on how to create an impenetrable moat around your system using the features of .NET EFS.

The Missing Link

Hunting little green men nets IT guy big pink slip
[Associated Press]
It's not such an alien concept to be fired for looking up raunchy Web sites at work. And evidently, it's not such an alien concept to be fired for hunting aliens. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services awarded a fresh pink slip to a staff computer programmer who ran Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence software on the department's server. The E.T. hunter, who boldly went where no department staffer had gone before, said he didn't think it would be a problem because he ran the program after hours and on weekends. But the Buckeye boss wasn't having any of it, and told the press that the guy obviously didn't find intelligent life in the mirror. Ouch!
