Securing Techology

I have put in an order for a new HP ENVY 13″ notebook to replace my stolen blogging system which I should be receiving sometime this Friday. I am extremely excited about this, as I am not a fan of writing my blog on my MacBook Pro 13″ (Mid-2009 model), no offense Apple, I just miss myNV. In any case, I have decided to take this as an opportunity to answer a key question that has been circulating in my head especially after this horrific event: In a world where technology is so key to our daily lives, where it is so accesible, how can we secure it?

A New Era Arrives

For many people, Wednesday, January 27, 2010 was no ordinary day. On January 27, 2010, Apple announced for the first time to the world that all the rumors and speculation over an “Apple tablet device” were true. This was the first time that we heard the term Apple iPad, and the buzz was incredible! Some people claimed the iPad to be nothing more than an oversized iPhone, some claimed it to be “the netbook killer”, and others saw it as a multimedia haven to where printed media can finally meet the digital age in a single, accepted format. Whatever the claims, and wherever you were, there was plenty of buzz surrounding this product that was announced to be 60 days away from general availability. Then, finally when Apple announced the availability to start preordering the iPad for its arrival on Saturday, April 3, 2010, people started slowly finding their way into their nearest Apple Store location to talk about the newest addition to the Apple device family. As I awoke this past Saturday morning at 7:30 AM, it actually dawned on me that the wait was over. The day that many were waiting for in anticipation had finally arrived. The day a new era arrived was here…the launch of the Apple iPad.

Thinking Outside “The Box”

I realize that we in IT, can easily take for granted how difficult challenges such as a new computer can be for some consumers, especially coming over to anything new or different. After purchasing my new Apple MacBook Pro 13″ notebook computer system that I wrote about in the previous post, Apple Makes It as Easy as 1-2-3, thinking nothing of it, I thought that its quite likely that some of you may never have had the opportunity to see what the experience of taking an Apple computer home or to your office is like.

I am here writing to you today from Baruch College at WordCamp NYC 2009!

With over 50 speakers, 8 session tracks, and more than 10 sponsers at this event, its no wonder that this event has brought in over 600 attendees!
