Migrating your shop to a different platform? Get ready for headaches. The net is full of complaints. Always, regarding any topic, but when it comes to e-Commerce, there is much more irritation than about any other topic, at least so it seems. The reason is that there is never a full comparison to be found (exceptions do exist, such as http://www.ecomparo.de in Germany, but not completely for altruistic reasons, as they are playing a systems integrator role). In this overview, we will look at the issues, pitfalls and concerns when… Read more E-Commerce Migration? Get ready for a headache! →

Heise and Aftenposten both report on IMSI catchers that have been detected in Norways government quarter. Now, given that anybody with a few thousand Euro in their hands can build such an IMSI catcher (which is capable of catching much more than just an IMSI, the unique mobile identification number of a cellphone, but can actually serve as a listening device to conversations and tape streams of voice-data), it is not neglect that is to be seen. In fact, it is an inability to see attacks while they are happening… Read more Surveillance in Oslo Government Quarter shows inadequate mindset to issues →

The CSP market is under pressure. Now a new entrant in Germany may cause even more disruptive crazyness: German Wirtschaftswoche has it: “Wir bauen flächendeckend ein Volksnetz, an dem sich Bürger, Unternehmen und Kommunen direkt beteiligen können”, bestätigte Geschäftsführerin Beate Rickert die Pläne zum Aufbau eines neuen Mobilfunkunternehmens gegenüber der WirtschaftsWoche. Wer genau das neue Unternehmen finanziert, will Rickert noch nicht verraten: “Hinter uns steht eine Gruppe mittelständischer Investoren.” Mehr wissen auch das Bundeswirtschafts-ministerium und die Bundesnetzagentur noch nicht.
