I was talking to someone fairly high up in SAIC network management about safety on the internet. SAIC is a global leader in that field. He claims he will only use a virtual computer to purchase something on the internet. He creates it, does what he needs to do then destroys it. I didn't ask if he did any on line banking.

2Old, Good article!

Sounds like he knows what he’s doing. I use Faronics Deep Freeze and flip over to a VM. When through, flip back to real machine and everything in VM is gone!

For e-mail and Credit cards I use MaskMe. My real e-mail is masked as a random address and directed through MaskMe. I can then turn it off when I get what I need or if they abuse it.

With the Credit cards, I create a virtual card, not my real card number, in the amount of the purchase and it is only good that one time. I never use a real CC number online.

i use a prepaid card 99% of the time it has no money on it.The 1% of the time i actually put money on it i use it up straight away.If a hacker was to get the card info they couldn't use it, they have a 20minute window max from the time i put funds on it to the time i use the funds up.
