 NEWS! - Nikon encrypts RAW file data
The fact that Nikon has chosen to encrypt a portion of the RAW file data would not be particularly problematic for third parties to overcome, were it not for certain laws enacted around the world in recent years.
Hence, they must either request the white balance setting from the user as the RAW file is converted, or attempt to determine an appropriate white balance setting automatically (which would not necessarily be the same as that determined by the camera itself).
Nikon hasn't communicated their reasons for encrypting the white balance information in their latest NEF formats, but we have to say it doesn't sound like a very good idea.

  Cryzip Trojan encrypts data, requests ransom
The malicious program searches for 44 different types of files, encrypts them, and then leaves a note for the user to pay $300 for the password to recover the files, according to an analysis by security firm LURHQ.
While other cyber-extortion schemes exist, there are only three known cases of a file-encrypting program that attempts to ransom a victim's data, according to LURHQ.
Last year, antivirus firms revealed that a program, dubbed PGPcoder, encrypted victim's files and demanded $200 for the password to the files.

 FCW.com News - Texas center encrypts with NeoScale   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
To comply with federal legislation as well as internal policies requiring that patient data be protected, the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston is encrypting and storing all types of data in one central place.
After consulting with a storage engineering company, university officials decided that encrypting, managing and consolidating most, if not all, data on its SAN was the best route.
Encrypting the data is not unique, Gordon said, adding that the product does not diminish network performance, with only nominal latency and strong key management -- the creation, transmission and maintenance of a secret key.

 PC World - Virus Encrypts Data, Demands Ransom
A virus that encrypts documents and demands a ransom to get them back is circulating on the Internet, but at least one security company has released the password needed to recover the files.
The Trojan horse virus encrypts the contents of a user's Word documents, databases, or spreadsheets, and then leaves a file demanding $300 in exchange for the password to access the information, said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant with security company Sophos.
However, the password to unlock the data is actually contained in the Trojan and is used in the process of encrypting the files.

 Tool encrypts passwords to protect admin privileges   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Like other programs of this kind, it is used to run a command as another user, but the advantage is that the password needed can be encrypted using a tool provided with the program that makes reverse-engineering the password very difficult for a casual user (to put it mildly!).
The encrypted password is passed to the program itself as a command-line parameter, so very little work is involved to allow an admin-level program to run securely in a conventional user's context.
Since the password-encryption tool only works in one direction -- it encrypts, but doesn't decrypt -- it is not possible for a user to reverse-engineer the password even if he downloads the tool himself, and the security of the whole process is maintained.
