The internet has brought us countless opportunities – yet it has also brought
new dangers such as identity theft, cybercrime, hacking and malicious
attacks, to name but a few. Complexity too is a bar to development, as today’s
online consumers struggle with multiple screen logins, challenge/response,
numerous passwords and other difficulties. Some of these not only breed
confusion and inconvenience, they also leave gaps in security. Many users,
clearly, would welcome a simple device allowing them to plug and play securely.
