Last April we posted a failing report card for failing to protect their domains from such spoofing. https://otalliance.org/news/releases/OTA_414reportcard.html. We are encouraged by the recent willingness to proceed with best practices now adopted by many leading businesses. In April we will be updating this report to include the top 50 .gov and .mil sites as well as offering the targeted sites training to help implement industry standards.

I've encrypted my Hard Drive, Emails, Database and Browsers, as well as my Passwords with all different Encryption Systems and have found that even if a certain Mail gets through with a Malware cookie or a Trojan pre-emptive Email they will be picked up by my Anti-spyware as well as My Root kit scanners and Anti-virus before they can penetrate my system I just keep a Bunch of scanning going on my workstation all the Time, except when in use for Work Purposes. The Security systems do all the Security and Scanning as well as The Spam Filters and Email scanners too. They run all night for I can set them too. Then nothing comes in without serious Scrutiny. That makes penetration very unlikely to penetrate the Encryptions to get to The Security as well as the possibility of an injection from an adware too. They don't have any passwords either. For my Perfect analyzer erases all the History and cookies, as well as The Browser pages after work too. Passwords are deleted too. Watching for unknown senders will keep the system safe from unknown choices too. Layers of Encryption seem to work for me.
