Today's Story Highlights

Cracks in the Cybersecurity Walls: Q&A With NetWitness CEO Amit Yoran
Cybersecurity is a shambles in the U.S., but nobody seems able to do
anything about it, and things appear to be going from bad to worse.
NetWitness CEO Amit Yoran, who served as cybersecurity chief during the
George W. Bush administration, discussed U.S. cybersecurity with
TechNewsWorld in an exclusive interview.

What Does an Apple Tablet Need to Be Worth a Damn?
It seems almost every technology analyst, reporter and blogger these
days either believes that Apple is on the cusp of releasing an iPod
touch-like tablet computer, or is willing to repeat the rumors to that
effect. Some believe Apple will reveal a tablet in September, along with
the likely announcement of an iPod and iTunes upgrade.

Healthcare Email Blasts Clog US House System
Amid a boisterous debate on healthcare reform, people flooded members of
Congress on Thursday with so many emails that they overloaded the
House's primary Web site. Technical support issued a warning to
congressional staff that the site, www.house.gov, may be slow or
unresponsive because of the large volume of email being sent to members.

Asia's Internet Cables Jostled by Typhoon
Seabed movements believed caused by Typhoon Morakat damaged seven
undersea cables linking Asian nations, disrupting Internet and telephone
services, a Taiwanese telephone company said Friday. Taiwan's Chunghwa
Telecom, which jointly operates four cables in the Bashi Channel between
Taiwan and the Philippines, said service has been slow since the typhoon
pummeled Taiwan last weekend.

Sony Launches E-Book Format War With ePub Push
Sony said Thursday it will sell digital books only in the ePub format by
the end of the year. It will also replace its proprietary digital rights
management software with technology from Adobe, which is widely used in
the e-publishing industry. The moves are part of an aggressive new
strategy kicked off with Sony's reorganization earlier this year.

Microsoft Outlook Sets Its Sights on the Mac
If there were any lingering doubts about the Mac's penetration of the
enterprise, they were dispelled on Thursday when Microsoft announced it
would ship its Outlook e-mail client in Office 2008 for Mac Business
Edition next year. Outlook will replace Microsoft's free Entourage e-
mail client in the Business edition, but not in the Home and Student
editions.
