Lost Or Stolen Laptops Containing Personal ID Databases  Part 1-The Introduction, Cases and Some Root Issues

4thDT Security Blog - Accountability and Liabilities Continue To Raise Public Concern - 2009 was a year of technology growth for the Internet as well as for criminal organizations that exploit the advances in technology to commit various types of criminal activity in the Identity theft arena.  What we have seen in 2009 is an increase in criminal sophistication and planning.  Criminal organizations are outsourcing the development of malware and network sniffing programs to countries that perform software design that are willing to be an accessory to program development of criminal activity regardless of the damage or consequences.  Because of international and political complexities tracking and neutralizing these type of activity is almost if not impossible. What this does is make the playing field with the same weapons and strategies on both sides. Where does that leave the consumer, right in the middle as the victim. .... Read more

4thDTTM Security's roadmap includes cell and PDA security to eliminate these vulnerabilities directly and permanently to eliminate the Man-In-The-Middle. See the white paper or watch the presentation below for more information.   More Media News    More presentations and whitepapers

Electricity Grid in United States Penetrated by Spies. Wall Street Journal April 8, 2009
The Wall Street Journal posted an article on the Electricity Grids in the USA stating the obvious that has been going on for several years. They have been compromised! This should not come as a surprise since the majority of the control is performed via a SCADA network that is connected to the Internet. These type of MITM (Man-In-The-Middle) attacks are used for many reasons, such as to map the entire grid system or install kill switch software are just a couple. What makes matters a bit more difficult is that the ones mentioned in the article are the ones that have now surfaced. The uncertainty of other type programs should be of greater concern. How will they be triggered? When will they be triggered? These questions and others have to be addressed. There are three articles of interest: Smart Grid May Be Vulnerable to Hackers CNN Mar 21, 2009, and Hackers Reportedly Have Embedded Code In Power Grids, CNN Apr 8, 2009 and the original WSJ article click here. Also some background history on SCADA networks April 7, 2009 article "SCADA Security, What SCADA Security ? By Gadi Evron

What can be done now to prevent further access and neutralize the kill switches we can not see?
4thDTTM Security addresses these problems and eliminates the Man-In-The-Middle. See the white paper or watch the presentation below for more information.    More Media News     More presentations and whitepapers

F'TAP-2525 Prototype - Due to the economic times we are forced to delay the pre-production beta release for an additional twelve months. We are still looking for beta testers. We are actively seeking investors and or partners to help launch this new technology into full production.

We are also looking for manufacturers that are seeking new technology security solutions that will be able to fund our preproduction run and be the first to evaluate this technology for their products. Purchasing incentives are negotiable.

If you are interested in being a part of this new security technology please contact us and we will setup an appointment.


  • Research into the current cyber security environment reveals an industry wrought with confusion.  Patches are released to fix patches that ultimately fail to protect systems. The primary reason the current patch-on-patch approach does not work is hackers stay one step ahead of the developers. They find a way through the new patch, often as the patch is released, and sometimes before it is released, to the public.  Because of this confusion the cybersecurity industry chose to operate in a "Risk Management" mode and not a solutions mode.
  • It is not an anomaly that hackers target software, it's easy. Why only the software? Unlike software, hardware is impossible to emulate. It is no mistake that throughout history the greatest encryption devices were hardware based.
  • With the advances in parallel computing, dual and quad gigahertz processor chips, advanced computing architecture and more powerful development systems, brute force attacks allow hackers to break data protected by today's security solutions much faster - often in minutes. Most security applications today are founded on the principal of layers of fixed digital algorithms that are not only vulnerable, but they slow down the throughput timing from point-to-point. Basically, security today adds more layers and sub-nets that contributes more to the problem of security than to the solution.
  • There is no single security solution "Silver Bullet" for the Internet known to man today. Otherwise there would only be one type of equipment on the market.  The fact that the Internet Providers are distributed world wide and sell bandwidth globally has changed the direction of Internet Security toward a point to point solution. The road to a point to point solution has to start somewhere and that starting place is 4thDT Security.
  • Security and Privacy go hand in hand, however, keep in mind that taking away rights and privacy does not make us safe. Criminal behavior, terrorism and social misconduct are active in all forms of social structures be it a free republic as the USA, socialism as in Europe, communism as China, totalitarianism as in many other minority ruled countries. Giving up our privacy rights in any social structure does not make us safe, in fact, it makes us more vulnerable to criminal behaviors than ever before by incorporating back doors for those and others monitoring all parts of our privacy. 4thDT Security closes all back doors to unauthorized access!
  • Security is not a product, it is a process which includes social behavior and uses technology products to practice the policies set forth.  Many CSO's and risk management analysts look at security as a feature that is included when they outsource their IT requirements. Would you outsource your families dynamic core stability to a an outsider whose behavior you have little or no influence on?  Many outsource security type firms have fine print clauses in the contract that will exonerate them from any consequences or accountability.
  • "The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them." (Albert Einstein).  Today we are experiencing this not only in the security industry but also in the automotive, banking and other industries.  4thDT Security is a new company to the security industry and incorporated a different level of thinking to solving some of the root causes of Internet security.  The 4thDT Security approach represents a paradigm shift in the way Internet security is implemented today.
