If someone asks to borrow your phone to make a call, what could they do? @DanNeely - because providing the very same answer as already posted shouldn't be encouraged. While Mike's answer is not likely to happen and it's more of a joke, it's still has a point. |

How to mimic an emotion? @MikeSamuel From FAQ - "IT Security - Stack Exchange is for Information Security professionals to discuss protecting assets from threats and vulnerabilities. Topics include, but are not limited to:(...) social engineering, including phising(...)" If you feel this question is off, you can flag it or open discussion on meta.security.stackexchange.com. In short, microexpressions helps me to exploit human part of IT system (humanware). If I asked how can I better mimic expression X to get secretary plug in my USB, would then question be on topic? |

How to mimic an emotion? @MikeSamuel - You didn't hear about Kevin Mitnick, Christopher Hadnagy, Paul Wilson, David Bannon, Farnk Abagnale, etc.? This is as much basic common knowledge as protecting infrastructure from malware. |

Getting rid of a large quantity of paper @rox0r I'm sorry for late replay, but after few weeks of searching I couldn't find any link describing decomposing paper in warer. I did it about 15 years ago as school project, so only thing I can do is to edit my answer to describe how to decompose few sheets of paper. However, for larger scale, I'm in dark, unfortunately. |

Why do we even use passwords / passphrases next to biometrics? Well, I could counter your statement (retina and medical conditions) with - passwords and Alzheimer. IMHO, the vast majority of people could use biometrics without any problem at all. |

Literature about IT security from a hardware standpoint Did you read it? I got that impression by looking at table of context. I'm definitely going to buy it (40$ for over 1000 pages book), just not sure is this what I'm looking for. |

Literature about IT security from a hardware standpoint Well, chapters 3 (Protocols) and 4 (Access Control) sound interesting but the book itself seems to be written for managers, not for IT (security) professionals. |

How would you store a 4 digit pin code securely in the database? Even if input device allows one try per minute (which is pretty unacceptable and frustrating for end user), attacker would only need one week to try all combinations. Isn't that little bit too weak protection? |

Password entropy in layman's terms Well, when you want to explain some complex concept to a kid, you have to use something (s)he is familiar with. At that time, I couldn't think of any better example. But anyway, it was that or Shannon... I took my chances with cleaning the room. |

Why do we even use passwords / passphrases next to biometrics? Why would I have to go to Palo Alto? If I have scanner, I would use it in registration form (for the sake of conversation, let say this is an option when registrating to FB) like I'm using passwords now. If I wanted to log in with fingerprint, I would have scanner locally, like I'm having keyboard right now. |

Why do we even use passwords / passphrases next to biometrics? Well, even if you do permenatly damage your hand, you will have unique scars. Also, there is not likely to injure your palms badly enough to wipe your epiderms (with mehanicals injuries). However, with fire or acid you could do it. Anyway, you actually remind me of something - hand-foot syndrom - people with this syndrom don't have fingerprints at all. There is also problem with poor scanning - can scanner penetrate deep enough into skin (some people might have altered upper layer, let say if they work with lime). All in all, at least to me, so far the best answer :) |
