Homeland Security Dept.  Would Absorb NIPC The president's proposed new
cabinet agency would take over cyber defense from the FBI.  The FBI's
National Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC) and several other key
federal cyber security organizations would be subsumed by the new
Department of Homeland Security, under the sweeping proposal announced
by President Bush on Thursday to create the cabinet-level agency.  The
Critical Infrastructure Assurance Office (CIAO), now part of the
Commerce Department, the Pentagon's National Communication System (NCS),
the Department of Energy's National Infrastructure Simulation and
Analysis Center and the GSA's Federal Computer Incident Response Center
(FedCIRC) would also join the new department.

Hackers unlock key to Norway's history A Norwegian educational center
for cultural preservation lost the password to a historical database
cataloging 11,000 original books and manuscripts, but was able to
recover it with help from the Web.  E-mail messages from more than 100
good Samaritans flooded the Ivar Aasen Center for Language and Culture
starting Thursday afternoon after the organization sought help from
security experts in reopening one of its databases, said a message
posted to the center's Web site on Friday.  The correct password appears
to have been found already.  http://news.com.com/2100-1001-934060.html

Survey: Readers bullish on security, Linux In the wake of the Sept.  11
terrorist attacks, continued hack attempts and pernicious new viruses,
technophiles expect that companies will boost spending on
security-related software.  About one- third of the readers who
responded to a recent survey by CNET News.com picked security as the
niche where information technology spending would most increase. 
Services and consulting software came in second.

Justice Dept.  Defends New FBI Powers New FBI guidelines that allow
agents to monitor religious meetings and Internet traffic will not lead
to an erosion of civil rights, a senior Justice Department official said
Friday.  Rather, the expanded powers will give the FBI the tools it
needs to pursue terrorists who hide in plain sight and target citizens,
said Assistant U.S.  Attorney General Viet Dinh.
