Comment Move the control point to the user side! (Score 0) 220

Hi all, We at CloudUSB have studied the data privacy problem and how it can be preserved while using distributed on line resources; we focused on online storage, used for backup or for making data available all over the world. The idea of the control point (http://cloudusb.net/sep/?The_control_point) is to keep on the user side the key to security, that is not only the password, but the software to encrypt the data, and we propose a portable solution keeping both operating system, programs and data in a small USB stick: all the information going out of the stick are already crypted, so the user is the one which as the complete control on his data. The solution is particular easy to use: after the setup, the user has just to store his data in a directory, and it will be crypted and syncronized on-line (in crypted form): everything based on open source or free software and free on line services to make the solution usable from the first moment by everyone by just downloading it at http://cloudusb.net/ ! bye giammy

Journal Journal: The control point

Internet and today widespread connectivity possibilities have make very easy and useful the data spreading all over the world with the obvious advantage of having it available everywhere.

But which is the missing concept in this scenario? It is the control point idea!

LHC Will Be Shut Down In 2011 Because of "Mistake" 183

astroengine follows up to a story about the LHC shutting down that seems to have hit all the news replicators today. "It's to be expected when pushing the frontiers of physics, but the LHC's epic 'will it or won't it' saga continues. Due to an unforeseen construction mistake, the LHC will cease experiments for a year (starting around late-2011) so repairs and upgrades can be carried out. For now, accelerated particles will have a maximum energy of 7TeV (half the power of the LHC's design maximum), which is ample for at least 18 months of experiments before shutdown."
