Entrust has turned-on two blogs today. (disclosure: Entrust is a client of The Lark Group).

One of these is especially interesting given the enormous amount of identity theft occuring in the market. Chris’ first blog touches on the decision by Bank of America to start deploying second factor authentication. While this is a good move, I’m surprised they aren’t looking at simpler, lower cost alternatives. Either way, this is a step in the right direction. I’d rather see Citibank deploy something like this that I can use than harrass me every week with calls in order to confirm transactions – which while protecting them, anoys the heck out of me. The other blog covers email compliance.

Watch for more from Entrust in the coming months.
