Today's computer users are faced with an ever-increasing number of malicious programs. Trojans, worms and viruses damage computer systems and communication channels, steal confidential data and spy on users. Users need effective protection from hacker and malware attacks. Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) that analyse internet traffic and internal networks are available, though their usefulness is limited due to the frequent use of data encryption on the Web. They also fail to protect against threats emanating from removable storage media. Disclaimer:

Once upon a time, not so very long ago , there were phones for business users and phones for the rest of us lazy plebs who just preferred playing snake and sending “OK” SMS messages to one another.
Nowadays, however, with smartphones becoming the “must-have” devices for anyone under the age of 40 in the developed world, the distinction between enterprise phone and consumer phone is blurring and so are the distinctions between which operating systems are business focused and which are more for personal use.
RIM’s Blackberry phone used to be exclusively targeted at the business user and its OS, considered outdated and clunky by some, was excused by the fact it wasn’t meant to be “user-friendly” but “enterprise friendly.” Want your emails pushed to your phone? Want your work calendar synched? Get a Blackberry. Want to play NFL football on your phone? Get an iPhone, after all, there’s an app for that.
