Inability to Authenticate hits us right where it hurts - security!

You might have heard about XP Antivirus 2008 and XP Antivirus 2009, fake security products which are actually malware, infecting unsuspecting victims!

The irony here is that our inability to Authenticate what is legitimate what is not is hitting us right where it hurts! Our security! Its one thing to be able to validate whether you belong to a “tunnel digger association” or not and its another to believe that an application is a security software and install it, but only to realise its actually a malware!

This is a very poignant point that demonstrates Authentication not only enables but also protects!
