Stay away from Singapore.Janx, you know there may be a good  invention/design/business idea that could come outta this. imagine setting up  fake identities (Electronic or Informational Cover-Identities) that could run  parallel to a person's real identity on the Nets/Webs.   It would be a Preemptive Defensive Security Profile. It  would have enough real information to run parallel to a person's real ID but  would have fake accounts, pass words, etc. But it would be far more vulnerable  (intentionally) to cracking than a normal account, and the account would be set  to run on a loop and tracking server so that it would simulate activity on a  regular basis. It would look far more active than most "real accounts," and that  would be one of the bait draws. Professional Crackers and Identity thieves,  especially international ones, such as Russian ICCs, would see the far more  active fake/parallel account, find it easier to crack, and would tamper it  instead of the real account.   People could pay for the service, which would be Active  Identity Defense (for the average person) rather than systems in vogue now,  which are Passive/Reactionary.   For that matter active systems could be tied directly to  tracing and tracking programs so that when they are hit some idea can be gained  as to who the perps are and their possible operational location. The same could  theoretically be done to protect not just financial data, but even things like  Fictional but nevertheless valuable Electronic and Income producing Identity  Profiles (such as Second Life accounts).If you think the idea has merit  then contact me and I'll be happy to work on the project with you as a business  venture. You could handle the basic software design requirements, I would handle  the security aspects and some of the informational profile designs. Together we  could handle the overall system design and business plans.    Actually I can see such systems being sold not only to  the general public, but more advanced versions being sold to the military and  Intelligence agencies (though they already have some capabilities in these areas  that I know of - but from what I know there is no coherent method, just a bunch  of ad hoc procedures).   Let me run the idea by some buddies of mine in the  military and in government contracting and see if the government would have an  interest in the idea as active Cyber-Defense. If not there is still the general  public, who would probably go for it (at least at the corporate and higher end  client level) as an active cyber-defense for tectonic and financial  identities.   Well, I'm off today and have some other things to  do.   If you're interested let me know, if not that's good  too. Whatever you decide.</blockquote>
