Innovasjon uten personvern? Nei takk!
I jakten på raskere innovasjon ønsker noen å avfeie personvern som unødvendig byråkrati. Men kan vi virkelig kalle noe innovativt hvis det overser grunnleggende ansvar for brukernes data? Personvern er ikke en hindring; det er en hygienefaktor – like viktig for programvare som sikkerhet er for biler. På samme måte som Volvo revolusjonerte bilsikkerhet, bør vi som utviklere og produktledere bygge applikasjoner med innebygget personvern fra starten. For produkter uten personvern har rett og slett ikke livets rett.

Luksusfellen for utviklere er å ignorere sikkerhetsgjeld
Produktet du ikke vedlikeholder er en voksende sikkerhetsrisiko som fort kan utvikle seg til å bli en kostbar affære.

Sikkerhetskultur spiser policy til frokost!
En god sikkerhetskultur er verdt en bunke med policies og litt til.

Uansvarlig produktutvikling vil straffe seg
Lar du ferdige IT-prosjekter ligge og råtne fordi du ikke har råd til vedlikehold? Det kommer til å koste deg.

Spy back on the apps spying on you
Social media applications spy on you, and probably send home some data about you every second you use the app. But what about the applications that have another business model? Do you trust that your bus pass app, developed by your the municipality, or your smart vacuum cleaner is not sending your data back to the developers? Often, we have no idea, and until recently iOS-users had no good way of inspecting the traffic that was sent from their devices.

Handy tips for staying secure on the go
We wrote about "Safe travels for the road warrior" last year. This year we offer one more trick, and expand our list for staying safe and secure on the road. Watch out for shoulder surfers, and protect your equipment if you have to leave it in for example your hotel room.

Safe travels for the road warrior
In business travel, a road warrior is a person that uses mobile devices such as tablet, laptop, smartphone and internet connectivity while traveling to conduct business. The term spawns from the movie Mad Max 2, starring Mel Gibson.

The problem with IoT and random
“The s in IoT stands for security” is a joke as old as the shared code base used in your IoT web-camera. Usually we mock IoT for having little or bad security, but the real issue is perhaps that IoT can't have good security.

Here, have my biometric data, I don´t care.
Some grocery stores in Norway use fingerprints for verifying the users age when buying an item that has age-restrictions. The security of this solution gets a thumb up 👍

When developers disclose information
Information sensitivity is a problem that can bring your organization to its knees. What do you do when disaster strikes?

Security in containers and orchestrations
Containers is the currently best way to build software for platform independence, and an orchestration service manages them, but how about that security?

Revoking of certificates
Managing certificates, and rotating them in due time can quickly get out of hand.
