To effectively combat the various kinds of security threats, IT decision-makers should consider a multi-tiered approach to security that includes physical theft, system access and intrusion, and data encryption.  Toshiba contracted with the PC World Test Center to test the security of its EasyGuard security on its Tecra A8 model line installed with Microsoft Vista. PC World tested several facets of Toshiba's EasyGuard security-multi-level password, fingerprint reader, trusted platform module and SD token utility. The "EasyGuard Report" also includes IDC analysis that recommends a tiered approach to security that includes the physical, system access and authentication, and data encryption.
