As the Olympics approach and the best of the best in a wide array of sports gear up to penetrate global supremacy, the security experts are busy exercising their little grey cells over a very different creed of penetration: computer monitoring software. Computer systems for the London Olympic Games are unyieldingly under the scanner to ensure that the systems are not infected by cyber attacks.

Oh Bloody Hell

PC monitoring has become a well known phenomenon in recent times. Software like Mobistealth computer monitoring have become household names, as spying in the tech realm has gone up a few notches. However spying takes a whole new meaning when the event under the gun is the biggest sporting occasion in the world, and the systems being potentially targeted are the ones that would deliver updates and results to Olympic scoreboards, timetables to athletes and confidential information to border officials. Hence, with all due respect to Mobistealth computer monitoring, this tracking is a whole new ball game altogether.
