Email Security Threat to Your Business 1



Email is Technically insecure and was not originally designed for what companies are using it for; confidential business conversations. It is logically insecure for use in confidential conversations because it cannot be controlled. The SCIE system was engineered for one purpose only confidential text based conversations.

The Secure Client Information Exchange, SCIE system, uses a thin client to access the SCIE servers in Switzerland. Many secure email systems use a fat client that is installed on your computer. Fat clients hold part of the systems code therefore enabling hackers to access the system from your computer.

Scie was engineered from the ground up for only one purpose, to keep confidential communications confidential. SCIE is a real time communications system.

There have been allegations that the SCIE system was used in the wall street insider trading scandal by Don Chu, of Primary Global Research, to communicate confidential inside information to Raj Rajaratnam the founder and manager of the Galleon hedge fund in new york.

Because the use of the secure client information exchange is 100% anonymous the scie developers can neither confirm or deny this allegation.

The latest 3 major tests conducted showed SCIE to be one of the most secure systems available. In addition to this video results of the latest test may be found on the Quanta Consulting website:

www.quanta-offshore.com

Unlike the majority of secure email providers, the SCIE developers submitted the entire system for testing to a 3rd party, most corporate email providers do their own in house testing...they test and certified their own systems, and do not publish the results.

However, research in motion the developers of the Blackberry, the blackberry email system and the blackberry BES (business enterprise server) do conduct 3rd party testing. But the blackberry emails can still be forwarded to unintended recipients, are subject to E-discovery, messages are not stored encrypted on the server and therefore blackberry is still insecure for confidential business communications.

SCIE Beats Blackberry BES in Security:

Geneva – Quanta Consulting Ltd is a worldwide distributor of the Secure Client Information Exchange; SCIE system. The SCIE system was engineered from the ground up for only one function, confidential text based business conversations that must remain confidential; a function that no secure Email system can provide

Quanta’s executive director Stella Smith explained, “The Blackberry BES e-mail system is the gold standard by which all other secure e-mail systems are judged. But Blackberry is still e-mail and not suitable for having confidential business conversations that must remain confidential; it is technically not possible. This is discussed in the SCIE Videos”.

Quanta SCIE Youtube Channel:

http://www.youtube.com/user/Quantascie

Quanta produced the SCIE videos to extend its marketing reach and obtain more direct sales of the system without a prolonged live sales presentation.

“Currently a potential client must schedule time with a sales representative, in order to understand the dangers that using email for confidential conversations poses to them and their companies and to see what SCIE actually is and what functions it performs”, Ms. Smith stated adding, “These are not entertainment videos, no car crashes not a lot slides in the video, it’s business. The presentations are unedited and narrated by one of my sales people, not a professional voice over actor. This is serious business particularly at this time with all of the Email hacking happening to companies around the world. Even the IMF and White House staff emails have been recently hacked. If you want to know what is really going on inside a company all you need is the confidential conversations in the corporate Emails”.

Quanta advises parties interested in SCIE to view the entire presentation. “Begin with the first video, ‘Email security threat to business’ and follow it through to the last video, ‘SCIE Real Time Use 16 - The Burn’, Ms Smith advised, “You will then have sufficient knowledge to purchase SCIE without having to schedule more than a few minutes for activation and of course any questions you may have”.

Quanta Consulting Ltd has issued a statement as to concerns clients and sales representatives have expressed over the possible misuse of the Secure Client Information Exchange by criminals and terrorist organizations.

Geneva - In an addition to the statement issued yesterday by Aero Consulting Inc., regarding the possibility that SCIE communications were used to facilitate insider trading activities with the Galleon Fund, Quanta Executive Director Stella Smith has issued this statement.

“Since becoming one of the first and currently the largest international distributor of the SCIE System , Quanta staff have been questioned repeatedly by potential clients and sales representatives as to the threat SCIE poses to international security. I asked the same question prior to finalizing the distributor agreement with Aero and therefore will refer to what the management of Aero Consulting stated to me and to terms in the written contract. While there is no existing technology capable of intercepting, tracing, decrypting or associating communications with a user, the existence and sales of SCIE poses no more of a threat to international security than any other technology. All innovations have the potential to be used for a nefarious purpose outside of the scope of intended use. This holds true for everything from transportation vehicles to the internet. The systems developers were well aware that these questions would arise when they made the decision to market SCIE openly and outside of Switzerland. This is why a ‘prohibited conduct’ clause is written into every distributor and independent sales representative’s contract”.

“With the exception of the Quanta staff the majority of SCIE system sales reps are off shore Trustees, lawyers and corporate formation and administration companies. The majority have some form of fiduciary responsibility and/or are regulated to the extent they must adhere to KYC (know your client) regulations in their various jurisdictions. These sales reps for the most part only sell SCIE to their existing clients or purchase the system on behalf of the client. This is how the SCIE developers wanted the system sold. This is more of an attempt to insure that the technology is not used by the wrong people than any other technology company has ever made.”

“Being acutely aware of the possible misuse of the system Aero Consulting has written into every contract, under the prohibited conduct clause, that no active marketing or sales are permitted in any country listed as a terrorist State or suspected of aiding a terrorist organization or terrorist State. Marketing and sales are also prohibited in all countries where there exists a current armed conflict.”

Twitter users seek privacy in WikiLeaks case

ALEXANDRIA, Virginia (AFP) – Lawyers for three Twitter users asked a US judge to overturn a court order directing the microblogging site to disclose clients' data to US authorities for a probe into WikiLeaks.
The order calling on Twitter to release data about the accounts of Icelandic lawmaker Birgitta Jonsdottir, US computer researcher Jacob Appelbaum and Rop Gonggrijp, a Dutch volunteer for WikiLeaks, was handed down in December by Judge Theresa Buchanan.

Buchanan, who also heard Tuesday's challenge, ordered Twitter in December to hand over to the US government information on the three subscribers and any other clients linked to WikiLeaks, the organization led by Julian Assange that last year released a slew of US diplomatic cables.
Among the information Twitter was ordered to give to the government were Internet Protocol addresses and the names and addresses of "tweet" recipients.

The December court order was sealed -- or secret -- until last week, when the details were made public to allow Jonsdottir, Appelbaum and Gonggrijp the right to reply.
In a tweet sent to AFP, Jonsdottir said she was determined to fight for her right and the right of "other social media users" to privacy.

"I don't have much choice, do I -- nor other social media users," she said when asked if she would hand over her Twitter account details to the US authorities.
"That's why this has to be fought and discussed."


The powerful law firm at the center of the WikiLeaks plot

One of the big outstanding questions in the story of the plot to undermine WikiLeaks and Salon's Glenn Greenwald, as well as a separate plan to discredit critics of the Chamber of Commerce, is the nature of the role played by the large international law firm Hunton & Williams.

Hunton, which brags it employs 1,000 lawyers in 18 offices on three continents, has worked for both the Chamber and Bank of America. The company is nervous because WikiLeaks is reportedly planning to release internal bank documents, and Bank of America apparently connected with Hunton to help respond to the crisis.

Hunton attorneys in turn had a series of e-mail communications -- since hacked by WikiLeaks supporters and published online -- with a trio of technology firms that proposed various schemes to attack WikiLeaks, Greenwald and critics of the Chamber. (One typical idea was to provide labor activists with false documents in order to discredit them.)

House Extends Key Patriot Act Provisions

Here are the expiring provisions the House adopted:

• The “roving wiretap” provision allows the FBI to obtain wiretaps from a secret intelligence court, known as the FISA court (for Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act), without identifying the target or what method of communication is to be tapped.

• The “lone wolf” measure allows FISA court warrants for the electronic monitoring of a person for whatever reason — even without showing that the suspect is an agent of a foreign power or a terrorist. The government has said it has never invoked that provision, but the Obama administration said it wanted to retain the authority to do so.

• The “business records” provision allows FISA court warrants for any type of record, from banking to library to medical, without the government having to declare that the information sought is connected to a terrorism or espionage investigation.


Inside look at foreclosure decisions

Internal documents and emails give insight into how lender decides whether to foreclose

One Valley man says he doubts mortgage giant Fannie Mae's pledges to help troubled homeowners, after he disputed his foreclosure. Some of the lender's internal communications shed light on the way his home's fate was decided.

In investigating the claims of Phoenix resident Glen Reinfried, 12 News obtained Fannie Mae documents and internal emails relating to Reinfried's case. They show conflict between what some staff members want the company's public image to be and the realities of a major mortgage company in the midst of the housing market collapse.

Anonymous Hacks Security Firm Investigating It; Releases E-mail

A U.S. security firm that claimed to have uncovered the real identity of Anonymous members responsible for a recent spate of web site attacks became a victim of Anonymous itself, when members of the online vigilante group breached the company’s network and stole more than 60,000 internal e-mails.

The group posted the e-mail spool Sunday on the Pirate Bay torrent site for anyone to download and sift through.

HBGary Federal, which does classified work for the U.S. federal government among other security work, claimed it had been working with the FBI to unmask hackers behind recent denial-of-service attacks against PayPal, Visa, MasterCard and Amazon. Members of Anonymous — a loosely structured group of internet troublemakers — had organized the mass attacks after the companies suspended accounts used by WikiLeaks to receive donations and host documents. More recently, members of the group directed denial-of-service attacks against government web sites in Tunisia and Egypt.

Last month, the FBI announced it had executed more than 40 search warrants against people suspected of participating in the WikiLeaks-related attacks. British police also arrested five men in relation to the attacks.

The hack against HBGary Federal occurred after the Financial Times published a story on Saturday quoting Aaron Barr, CEO of the company. Barr said his company’s researchers had uncovered clues to the real identities of top members of Anonymous by monitoring chat rooms and Facebook groups they frequented. Barr identified a co-founder of the group, who goes by the name Q, and said he planned to give some of the information to the FBI. He also planned to present his findings at a security conference in San Francisco next week.

On Sunday, Anonymous ridiculed the company’s research skills and the accuracy of its data in a press release posted at Daily Kos, mocking the company’s “infiltration of our entirely secret IRC server anonops.ru and in particular our ultra-classified channels #opegypt, #optunisia, and, of course, #reporters, which itself is the most secret of all.”

Madoff trustee: JP Morgan Execs Warned of Fraud

NEW YORK (AP) -- E-mails and other internal documents show that executives at JPMorgan Chase were complicit in Bernard Madoff's massive fraud, lawyers seeking to recover funds for his victims said Thursday.

The lawyers work for a court-appointed trustee who filed a $6.4 billion complaint under seal late last year against JPMorgan, the disgraced financier's primary bank for two decades. The parties agreed to make portions of it public on Thursday.

Among the e-mails cited is one in 2007 in which an unidentified JPMorgan Chase employee recounts being told "there is a well-known cloud over the head of Madoff and that his returns are speculated to be part of a (P)onzi scheme."

The material supports allegations that "the bank's top executives were warned in blunt terms about speculation that Madoff was running a Ponzi scheme," attorney Deborah Renner said in a statement. "Yet the bank appears to have been more concerned only with protecting its own investments in (the Madoff firm's) feeder funds."

In a statement on Thursday, JPMorgan said the complaint "is meritless and is based on distortions of both the relevant facts and the governing law."

Pakistan to cut BB services for foreign missions-sources

Pakistani authorities have asked mobile telephone operators to stop BlackBerry services to foreign missions in the country amid concern about the security of the communications, industry sources said on Monday.
Two industry officials confirmed that the regulator, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), had asked them to stop all Blackberry services to foreign missions.

"I can confirm that PTA has asked us to stop all BlackBerry services to foreign embassies and high commissions," a senior official at a mobile company, who declined to be identified, told Reuters.
Another industry official at another mobile company also confirmed receiving the instructions.

"There are some other issues as well, mostly relating to BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server), which we are trying to resolve in consultation with the PTA," he said.

SURPRISE! Leaked Emails Show Fox News' Exec's Attempt To Link Obama Campaign To Marxism

Media Matters has uncovered even more internal Fox emails revealing a purported network-wide campaign to link Barack Obama to "Marxists" and "socialism" during his 2008 presidential race.
October of 2008 was a busy month for Fox News exec Bill Sammon, now the managing editor of Fox's Washington, D.C., bureau.

Media Matters has cataloged the multiple appearances he made on Fox News trying to tie Obama to socialism -- but more troublesome perhaps are his Fox News internal emails that continue to be leaked (some former co-worker has it in for him!).

For example, on October 27, 2008, Sammon sent an email to his Fox News colleagues with the subject heading "fyi: Obama's references to socialism, liberalism, Marxism and Marxists in his autobiography, 'Dreams from My Father.' Plus a couple of his many self-described 'racial obsessions'..."
The body of the email contained the references -- and, unfortunately for Sammon, there weren't too many. His email only mentioned five somewhat tenuous references from Obama's book, e.g.:
