Protect Your Company's Data On The iPad

Security experts at a conference recently had no trouble hacking data on an iPhone 3Gs. iPad uses the same operating system, so it will presumably be just as vulnerable.

"The Apple iPad is coming, and--thanks primarily to the iPhone revolution--it is guaranteed to break out of its consumer-oriented shackles and start showing up at work. A quote from Star Trek: The Next Generation comes to mind: "Resistance is futile." Your business data will be assimilated.

Despite the fact that Apple has targeted the tablet as a consumer-oriented device built for media consumption, emerging polls suggest that leading reason that consumers want the iPad is specifically for work, with media consumption and game playing not far behind."
