Crypto AG Presents the World’s First Gigabit IP VPN Encryption

0 comments
IP VPN security solutions from Crypto AG have triple-play capabilities(data, voice and video) and are compatible amongst each other. There are models for every user scenario and bandwidth requirement, for example, different rack versions with data throughput capacity of up to 1 Gigabit per second for direct integration into the ICT infrastructure. For smaller offices, there is a desktop version and for more mobile uses there are portable models, such as the Crypto Mobile Client and the MultiCom Radio Encryption platform.

After the Transistor, a Leap Into the Microcosm

0 comments
Dr. Ross, an I.B.M. researcher, is growing a crop of mushroom-shaped silicon nanowires that may one day become a basic building block for a new kind of electronics. Nanowires are just one example, although one of the most promising, of a transformation now taking place in the material sciences as researchers push to create the next generation of switching devices smaller, faster and more powerful than today’s transistors.

The lateral-line system

0 comments
Fish and some amphibians possess a unique sensory capability in the so-called lateral-line system. It allows them, in effect, to "touch" objects in their surroundings without direct physical contact or to "see" in the dark. Professor Leo van Hermmen and his team in the physics department of the Technische Universitaet Muenchen are exploring the fundamental basis for this sensory system. What they discover might one day, through biomimetic engineering, better equip robots to orient themselves in their environments.

New alkaline membrane for cheaper fuel cells

0 comments
A NEW type of fuel cell membrane made from quaternary phosphonium–based polymers could allow for the production of cheaper fuel cells which do not require the use of expensive precious metal catalysts.

Yushan Yan, chemical and environmental engineering professor at the University of California, Riverside, and his team developed the alkaline membrane, which contains the polymeric ionomer TPQPOH with a tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphonium unit

5 Metamaterials That Make Matter Invisible, Silent or Blindingly Fast

0 comments
Step aside, nanotechnology, the buzzword for today’s material scientist is “metamaterials.” These substances are tiny engineered structures from existing composite that are used to manipulate light, sound and radiowaves. Researchers are just starting to find applications for this research and may soon come out with products that can cloak military vehicles, make stronger microscopes and faster computer chips. Here are 5 examples of metamaterials in action.

Ongoing Botnet Attacks Identified as Team Projects

0 comments
Three significant waves of SQL injection attacks appear to be under the control of the same source, according to one security researcher.

Roughly 80,000 Web sites in China, 67,000 in the U.S. and 40,000 in India remain compromised and under botnet control as a result of separate and ongoing SQL injection attacks. The highest infection point during the last three months reached into the millions at one point in China.
