Round-Up This week the MoD was kind enough to point out that it had actually lost loads of laptops, some containing similarly sensitive data. Glad you asked - the MoD has announced it has lost a laptop containing the personal information of about 600,000...

Leader It's unsurprising that the MoD has reported the most hacking attempts. Yet the fact that there are apparently so many hackers targeting government systems makes some of the MoD's figures seem puzzling.
[12 Jul 2005]
Leader There was the tiddler of a deal with the MoD, worth a mere £6m or so - definitely not in the same league as the big one over in Whitehall last week that BT didn't get its teeth into. Just when we think the pipeline of big wins for BT must be...

Leader All of which means, quite simply, that both EDS and the MoD cannot afford for anything to go wrong with the Defence Information Infrastructure project to create an integrated IT platform for the armed forces.

Leader The MoD also moved on with its £4bn IT outsourcing project, revealing the final three bidders to progress to the next phase. But it won't be such a happy Christmas over at EDS, which lost the Revenue contract, and IBM Global Services, which lost...

Comment The IT modernisation project, codenamed Defence Information Infrastructure (DII), will create a single standard platform for the MoD, which serves 157,000 desktop users around the world. The MoD has studied examples of IT failures at home and...

Comment In the UK, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) lost over 600 laptops in one year alone. Explaining a lost laptop to your boss is one thing, explaining just which files have fallen into someone else's grubby mitts quite another.

Comment BT has also been on the receiving end, with a £50m MoD deal which will see it provide a radio communications network to the police and army. silicon.com's second monthly round-up of IT contract wins has revealed that in a less than favourable...

Comment The MoD and the NHS argue the deals make sense for them. If the MoD isn't happy with Bill's software will it package it all back up, pop a stamp on top and send it back to Seattle? It's no secret that Bill Gates and Tony Blair are good mates.

Comment The initiative came about as a response within the MoD to attacks from Melissa, the Love Bug and the Anna Kournikova viruses over the last year. In an attempt to minimise the problems caused by global email viruses, DERA - the UK Defence Evaluation...
