February 14, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- IT security solutions provider Comodo (comodo.com) announced on Wednesday that universities are looking to deploy a best practices approach for protecting student information and securing their online activities. Solutions that universities are planning to adopt include Comodo's anti-phishing SSL certificates, vulnerability management services and Comodo Two Factor for authenticated login and content verification certificates.

In the past three months, over 12 universities have selected Comodo to deliver a combination of solutions to meet a diverse set of needs, says the company. Some of these educational institutions include University of Connecticut, California University of Pennsylvania, DePaul University, SUNY, Ohio State, Yale, University of Chicago and Metropolitan College of NY.

"Across the country, educational institutions of all sizes are offering new online access opportunities for students and faculties," says Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and chief security architect of Comodo. "These organizations recognize that the proliferation of new Internet technologies and multimedia offerings has created tremendous security and authentication challenges for the higher education market as it moves to create innovative interactive opportunities. Comodo is proud to be able to help these institutions evolve to a best practices approach cost effectively without disruption to the student body."

Comodo also recently announced that Comodo Firewall Pro v3.0 with A-VSMART technology is an effective protection tool against the growing threat of malware.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through.
