		<description><![CDATA[Anup Ghosh wrote in his SC Magazine article titled &#8220;Unwitting accomplices and complicit security teams&#8220;: Cyber miscreants have figured out there is no sense in spending the energy trying to break through firewalls when you can simply ask any one of the thousands of users connected to the internet to invite you in.

Most small business owners understand that they need a business checking account in order to keep their personal and business finances separate.  That just makes good sense.  What some, especially home-based business owners, fail to do is separate their business and personal computing, especially userID and passwords.  Maintaining that dividing line between your [...]]]></description>
