New startup vArmour is joining the mix to solve a persistent data center security problem: How do enterprises keep information safe as file storage increasingly becomes virtual?
There was a time when companies stored sensitive files on specific hardware — that is no longer the case. Cloud technology has made it so that files aren’t stored on one particular hard drive or tower anymore. Instead they move fluidly from server to server. That technology makes data centers more efficient and IT more flexible, but it also compromises security software, which relies on files staying in one place.
“Security likes to be able to lock your stuff in place,” says Jon Oltsik, senior principle analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group.
A new study suggests that the explosive adoption of mobile devices will help, not hurt brick and mortar shops – challenging the fear that ecommerce firms like Amazon are a death knell to local commerce.

Wouldn’t it be nice if family planning were as simple as turning on the TV? Well, it might be in the near future, thanks to a contraceptive computer chip slated for potential public sale sometime in 2018.
Created by MicroCHIPS, a Massachssetts-based drug delivery implant developer, the chip is to be inserted under a woman’s skin and can be activated and deactivated by remote control. It works by administering a low dose of the hormone levonorgestrel once a day.
The really impressive part? The chip is good for 16 years; only then would you need another visit to the doctor’s office for replacement.
