Faced with the thought of a USB drive, notebook PC or backup tape going missing, most IT managers look to some form of encryption as the first layer of defence. However, according to one storage security expert, that's largely a pointless exercise.

Five years from now the notebook will likely be smaller and lighter, capable of making mobile phone calls on its own and running on methanol.
A Massachusetts Institute of Technology physicist, known for calculating the absolute, physical limit of a laptop computer's storage potential, has now imagined what it would take for a computer to accurately simulate the entire universe throughout its history.
Hitachi's storage division has made a tiny hard drive faster and more efficient, meaning notebooks will be quicker and use less power.
To mark the start of a new year, here's a roundup of the likely trends in processors, graphics, peripherals and notebooks over the next 12 months.
The Extensa is a business laptop with no particular frills. That's not a bad thing per se, but it's tough to get too excited about it, either.
