Microsoft's pending leadership change offers a chance to tweak its boom-or-bust "we're on a journey" message. Instead, it appears the company is simply turning up the volume. Good. I was getting tired of singing "Don't stop believing"

Speaking at TechCrunch Disrupt, Google's Heather Adkins says startups should look beyond passwords to secure users and their data. Insert a drop of blood to unlock computer

Oooh how about a mark on the forehead or right hand!

Hey yeah! That would totally work. Best if we could use something catchy and memorable. 999 or something?

Kent Sharkey wrote: As a result, she said, any startup that still relies on standard passwords needs to ensure that it has an abuse team set up to deal "with customers getting compromised."
Any company with passwords will need to think about passwords and possible disasters.
Kent Sharkey wrote: Google will innovate beyond today's security, she did say the company is experimenting with hardware-based tokens
Ah, sounds more secure - the nice part of a hardware-token is authentication; that's what this is about. It's not about security. Google "needs" to know who you are.
Kent Sharkey wrote: Later in the conversation, which also touched on the NSA scandal, cybersecurity, and the weaponization of offensive cyber technologies, Adkins pointed out that hackers intent on making money from their bad acts had consistently found ways to exploit Google users who had yet to turn on two-factor authentication.
Yes, you're more "secure" if Google knows your phone-number.
..right. And hardware-tokens for those without a phone?
..and you're going to take on "passwords" with that "plan"?

Apple Senior Vice President Phil Schiller confirmed to AllThingsD that developers won’t get access to use a fingerprint as a means of authentication. He declined to comment on whether that might come in the future. We're stuck with just the fingerprints on the screen then

That was all the way back in 2008 (and 2010 for the article). New fonts, mango, new fonts. I figure I can re-use this every two years for the rest of my life

And while early rumors pointed to outgoing Nokia CEO (and longtime Microsoft exec) Stephen Elop, some prominent voices are pushing for the company to hire someone that specializes in turning around troubled firms. Because ... quality is job #1?
