| IT monitoring effective in deterring fraud by restaurant employees Sep 3rd 2013, 16:30 For many firms, losing significant revenue and profit to employee theft has been a cost of doing business. But a new study finds that information technology monitoring is strikingly effective in reducing theft and fraud, especially in the restaurant industry. | | New component in the quantum electronics toolbox: Interface between atoms and superconductors Aug 29th 2013, 13:30 The coherence of quantum systems is the foundation upon which hardware for future information technologies is based. Quantum information is carried by units called quantum bits, or qubits. They can be used to secure electronic communications -- and they enable very fast searches of databases. But qubits are also very unstable. Scientists have now developed a new electronic component which will help to deal with this problem. | | Study advances iris images as a long-term form of identification Aug 20th 2013, 20:13 A new report by biometric researchers uses data from thousands of frequent travelers enrolled in an iris recognition program to determine that no consistent change occurs in the distinguishing texture of their irises for at least a decade. These findings inform identity program administrators on how often iris images need to be recaptured to maintain accuracy. | | Computer can read letters directly from the brain Aug 19th 2013, 18:16 By analysing MRI images of the brain with an elegant mathematical model, it is possible to reconstruct thoughts more accurately than ever before. In this way, researchers have succeeded in determining which letter a test subject was looking at. | |
