Swann is unveiling their new wireless security camera, which consists of a camera with a transmitter which transmits video signals wirelessly to the receiver for recording.
The little extra security of the new Swann camera is it adds encryption to the signals that are being transmitted wirelessly. Making it with very slim chance for others to eavesdrop your wireless signals. The newly released Swann camera is called Swann ADW-300, which will cost you around $200.
The Swann ADW-300 camera transmits the video signals in a point-to-point manner to its receiver. Using the special technology for the signal transmission, it ensures the signal transmitted is intact without getting disturbed by any nearby interference. Furthermore the signal is encrypted that which ensures no one could steal your signals.
The encryption is definitely a need for today’s wireless security camera. Imagine, if you have this security cam installed in the living room of your mansion, and the receiver is somewhere in another room. If the signal is transmitted without any encryption, someone who stays nearby could have eavesdropped the signals that might possibly contain video that shows you running around in the house naked.
Some other features found this highly secured wireless cam including olor viewing and recording during the day, black and white with infra-red night vision in low light situations and a wireless transmission range of around 160 feet. The device is said to be available soon.

It was last year Innovative Card Technologies and eMue Technologies introduced the credit card that comes with its own authentication system, and now Visa Europe has rolled out their newly designed credit card which comes with similar authentication system. (VISA may have purchased those cards from the two companies)
The new credit card introduced by VISA comes with a keypad, and a digital number display. The card is exactly the usual size and there is also a magnetic strip that can be used with conventional card readers. At the back of the credit card, you don’t get the traditional security code number. Instead, you key your pin number on its keypad to get to generate a random security code on the digital display.
You can then enter this one-time security code while making a purchase online. This is definitely much more secure than the traditional security code, as no one could simply guess what the card has generated.

Many big houses have security cameras installed, and of course the reason is to monitor the surrounding of your house for any suspicious movements and record them down. And some more security cams will definitely keep thieves away i.e. your house will be considered as the toughest case once thieves have noticed that you’ve got security cams installed, for sure they’ll give up breaking into your house.
But if you can’t afford for those expensive security cams, it might be a good idea to get some fake ones. As they can be used to deceive outsiders that your house is fully equipped with security system, and thieves will most likely change their mind once they’ve found you have cams installed.
Some of these fake security cameras from ChinaVasion have been made to look so real, and cost only $15 each, which shall be good ones to have in your house, at least to hint others that your house is securely equipped.
Surprisingly, the fake security camera works almost like a real camera, it even has a motion sensor once activated, will get the camera to move and follow the object or person who’s activated it. Some more, it’s got a built-in LED that lights up once the camera is activated as if it’s really recording the video footage. But, I bet thieves will get smarter after reading this post, and they’ll have ways to differentiate between a real and a fake cam.

A security and communication device called the Guardian Angel, sounds like the real angel which God sent to hover above you always and give you a hand in any unsafe situation.
The Guardian Angel is to be launched into the air in any situation that you feel unsafe or you’re unsure about. The device will then give a video-live-stream awareness to a security company, police or ambulance. It should be a super effective security and communication device as it transmits “SOS” data in the forms of pictures, sounds and even the position-coordinates of where you are.

Remember the times whereby you hear from someone that they happen to lose their laptop and you simply just shrug away thinking it will never happen to you? Think again. If the same scenario would to happen to you, you would not want to start worrying about laptop security then.
The digital age today has indeed ushered in a new age of uncertainty, one which you always have to safeguard against the invisible enemies. Picture the next business plans of yours placed loosely inside an unsecured computer ready to be hijacked by another malicious program. Hard Drive Encryption is an option perhaps you would like to consider with security of data given so much importance. The mere fact that having an encrypted data vault would ensue a piece of mind is an investment worth spending.
Having said that, it is not to say having laptop security and hard drive encryption alone would suffice. Ultimately, end-users have to ensure that they take responsibilities of their own equipments. Mobile Data Protection System can only do so much to safeguard our data but at the end of the day, we need to be careful on how we handle our personal documentations.
To summarise, one cannot be more careful when ensuring information security and privacy in today’s modern world. One can never know who is viewing her profile online or offline. With the advent of technology and the viruses that tagged along with it, do ensure you will always keep your computer up-to-date and protected. You can never be too careful with protecting your personal documents from snooping eyes these days.
