Comdex's Secure Side
A sampling of the information security products on the menu at Comdex
By Michael Fitzgerald
…
Comdex typically features several small companies making outsized claims in an effort to get press attention. Even in this slimmed-down Comdex, that was true. In the security space, it was Stealth Media Labs, which said it has a way to prevent movies and music from being copied illegally.
Stealth's timing, at least, was good. Intellectual property issues were the subject of hot debate at Comdex, both on panels and in keynotes. Filmmaker George Lucas even got up during the keynote by News Corp. President and COO Peter Chernin and talked about the cost of piracy.
It's individual entertainers, not entertainment companies, that stand to lose the most from rampant content piracy, Lucas insisted. "Corporations are like cockroaches," he said. "They'll survive everything."
