			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;The smart grid is by definition going to be less secure than the existing grid,&#8221; said Andy Bochman, founder of the<a href="http://smartgridsecurity.blogspot.com/">Smart Grid Security Blog</a>. &#8220;That&#8217;s what happens when you greatly interconnect something that previously used isolation as one of its primary security strategies. It&#8217;s going to be less secure and more people from more diverse backgrounds will be able to reach parts of it &#8230; even if we do a great job of securing it with rock solid security technologies and policies.&#8221;</p>
<p>But the picture isn&#8217;t all that bleak, he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;The positive side is it&#8217;s the smarts in the smart grid that can detect problems early and respond much more rapidly than the mechanical, human systems can today,&#8221; Bochman said. &#8220;That will help us work around those isolated security incidents and ultimately make the grid more reliable and efficient than it is today.&#8221;</p>
<p>Part of the problem is that there needs to be a shift in the mindset of typically slow-moving utilities, said Brian Monkman, technology programs manager at ICSA Labs, a testing and certification firm.</p>
<p>The utilities are used to designing and implementing technology that has a projected lifespan of 30 to 40 years, which is eons in Internet time, he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have power meters within the country that were installed at a house 60 to 70 years ago and it&#8217;s still running,&#8221; Monkman said. &#8220;The biggest fear is that the lessons learned over the course of the last 10 to 15 years on the Internet will not be carried over to the smart grid.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rumors of the¬†<a href="http://www.cnet.com/apple-iphone.html">iPhone</a> <a href="/8301-31021_3-20001388-260.html">coming to Verizon Wireless</a> may have some consumers in the U.S. wondering about resulting cost savings for the device. But will more competition really mean lower prices?</p>
<p>Six months after the iPhone market¬†<a href="/8301-13579_3-10362595-37.html">opened up in the United Kingdom for the iPhone</a>, prices have only dipped slightly. But compared to prices from AT&amp;T, the iPhone&#8217;s exclusive carrier in the U.S., Brits are still getting a much better deal than Americans.</p>
<p>When Apple announced its exclusive contract for the iPhone with O2 Wireless was expiring in the U.K. last September, the British press was almost giddy at the prospect of a price war.</p>
<p>&#8220;Orange&#8217;s success in breaking into O2&#8217;s exclusive deal to stock the iPhone is expected to lead to a Christmas price war with the cost of the Apple handset coming down for U.K. consumers,&#8221; the¬†<a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2009/sep/28/orange-uk-iphone-vodafone">Guardian newspaper wrote on its technology blog in September 2009.</a></p>
