Mouse-Box — An Entire Computer inside a Mouse

Smartphones in our pockets are exponentially smaller and more powerful that they don't realize the need to carry laptops with us everywhere. Now imagine if a small mouse meets the need of the entire PC? Not just imagination, it has been proved and done by the engineers at a Polish startup...

Researchers: Accelerometers Perfect for Pervasive Tracking

Minute manufacturing imperfections in popular accelerometers cause that hardware to emit uniquely identifiable data that could give third parties the ability to single out specific mobile devices, regardless of any privacy protections deployed on them. In a paper published by the University of...

When, Not Whether, Is the Question for Mobile Authentication, Research Finds

The findings from a recent study carried out by Microsoft Research and the University of South Carolina suggest that we should be asking ourselves when to require authentication rather than whether to require authentication. The research puts forth the idea of tailoring authentication requirement...
