Did you see this? Christian Harris put up a nice blog last week calling alphanumeric logins obsolete. Thanks for the shout-out Christian.

The same article tells us that identity theft is up 33.1%, according to CIFAS, and that’s before taking into account the increase in fraud that we expect over the holidays. It seems that come holidays, crooks get greedy, which corresponds with a year-end boost in opportunity.

Happy Christmas to all and to all good security.
