People often talk about export in terms of commodity - agricultural produce and manufactured goods.

T-Mobile is the first mobile telecommunications provider to have implemented a new remote authentication solution that utilises mobile telephones. For this, the world-renowned company has put its faith in the expertise of security experts from SecurEnvoy. The company’s SecurAccess and SecurICE solutions are based on the principle of tokenless two-factor authentication. T-Mobile staff will be able to identify themselves from anywhere when logging in using their mobile phone they will use a password and a dynamically generated passcode on the phone. This will ensure highly secure remote access to the corporate network.
There are many things you simply would never do in the real world – would you give every person in your street a key to your property? If you do you’d be expected to live with the consequences.

Windows desktops with full admin rights (the technical equivalent of a skeleton key) are a gift to malware writers. For starters, malicious software is more effective when its payload runs with administrator rights, as it does not need to find a security flaw to gain privileged access to the system. Add to this the human element, with users all too often unwittingly or even irresponsibly downloading applications that contain malware and you’ve got significant problems in the corporate network.
