Cloud seems to be the ultimate Rorschach Test, both in the real world and the IT world. (From http://blog.labslice.com/2010/09/wispy-cloud.html ).

Lab environments are places were you can play with machines -- eg. customer POC, product evaluation, training environments etc. The objective is to move those lab environments to the cloud, for certain customer use cases. We use regular AMI

I am quite certain that the EMV chip, which is the chip on your card, must authenticate the POS machines it talks to. The authentication is done using public key cryptography. So it's not sufficient just to host a fake machine and expect it

I may be opening myself up to attack, but I find that the best programmers around are the ones who started at the lowest levels and then progressed up the abstraction levels. It's quite easy to move up in levels of abstraction, but not the

It's quite possible that the Chinese government hacked your iphone so that they can send out spam for fake Rolexes. But in most likelihood you have a keylogger or browser based password sniffer sitting somewhere in your computer, and you ar

My business (LabSlice) was just announced as a semi-finalist. I didn't even realize it was publicly announced until I clicked this link in the poster's blog: http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2010/11/aws-start-up-challenge-20... . I am just a dat

I completely disagree. A person who is really passionate about IT security will know about cryptography because they are interested in how security works, not because it's a requirement for the job interview. In fact, I am surprised at the

I believe that established businesses sell for 3-5 times their annual revenue. Your situation sounds different. With practically no costs, steady growth, and the claim that you don't advertise --- well, that can make you quite a premium com

Every startup has the chicken and egg problem -- It's worth a million dollars, but only if it had the customers/dollars/advertising/partnerships to make it succeed. You've obviously got belief and vision for the project, which are great tra
