Microsoft Unveils Applications, Strategy

Microsoft is reportedly fighting back at Gartner´s criticizm of PocketPC´s security (or lack thereof). According to this report Microsoft will offer customers User identification technology from RSA Security. This move is expected to prevent malicious and fraudulent access to corporate networks.

Your humble editor still thinks keeping your PocketPC with you an password protected is the best policy for now! If you work for the FBI, an added security precaution would be to not leaving your PocketPC on park benches in Russian neighborhoods[img]images/forum/smilies/icon_wink.gif[/img]

"In addition, RSA has developed a software token for the Windows Pocket PC 2002 operating system. Now, after passing an initial security check, users of mobile devices can obtain a second unique code to access the network from their PDA. By embedding the technology into the operating system, users no longer have to carry separate hardware tokens -- small devices attached to keychains that generated access codes, Powers said. "
