1.9 billion, or a mere five weeks profit for the global banking giant, HSBC was the punishment handed by the US Department of Justice (DOJ), in late 2012, for the bank’s systematic disregard of shady financial transactions. The DOJ’s decision is in response to the bank’s failure to follow: the Bank Secrecy Act, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and the Trading with the Enemy Act. HSBC deliberately avoided reviewing flagged financial documents and clear warning signs that it was conducting

Apologies for my absence, and that I may not be blogging regularly for a while yet, but Apple is fighting an order that create a security crippled version of iOS so the FBI might be able to access the phone owned by one of the San Bernardino shooters. Understanding what they are looking for and why is crucial to understanding why Apple is fighing it and deciding whether the company should. Tim Cook pulled few punches in his open letter on why Apple is fighting, and he makes a good case. But what

certain security features. This would effectively create a back door into the I-phone. Apple turned down the FBI’s request due to a security concern. Thus began a fight between the United States Government and Apple Inc. over breaking encryption and government intrusion. The clash reflects wider debates in the United States and elsewhere over security measures used by companies to protect users of devices such as smartphones — and how much leverage authorities should have to gain

Walter De Gregorio, head of FIFA communications, said this about the recent arrests, “This for FIFA is good, it’s not good in terms of image, and it’s not good in terms of reputation but in terms of cleaning up this is good”. These recent arrests are a good start to getting rid of corruption for good. FIFA is

1. Chiquita Banana Video I think Chiquita should've refused to pay because paying the amount for security is not the solution to the problem. It can lead to many other problems. However, I just think that their options would still become a problem either way.
