RSS - be first - manage your risks better            

If you were to pick between coming to CASEScontact and letting CASEScontact come to you, what would you choose?

For those who prefer the latter, RSS/XML feeds are available free for individuals and non-profit organisations.

RSS/XML feeds can update headlines on your computer software as they change through sections at CASES. Threat alerts, Tips & Tricks. Content can fly to your desktop faster than it takes to say 'What's new?'

So sign up for our RSS news, because it will help you protecting your information and BlackBerry/smartphone better.

if you want to know more about a browser plug in for reading RSS feeds or a special program see the section Getting Started further below.

Getting Started

Download and install free RSS reader software or the plug-in for your browser (for suggestions and links to plug-ins and software, see further below);

Add the 'channel' (i.e. RSS feed) links below to your RSS reader...

You may also bookmark the URL that is embedded in the title of the feed or else just click on it to see how the glossary looks online (you can do searches as well, of course).

If you wish you may check the validate item, to see if our feeds are valid ... which, of course, the are.

What do CASES RSS/XML feeds do: They gather information related to your areas of interest - Threat alerts, Tips & Tricks - and deposit them all on your desktop. So, in effect, if you don't stop by the site, the headlines pretty much pay your PC a visit.

How do I read these feeds? Once information about news items is in RSS format, RSS reader software can check for changes and updates. These headlines will appear on your screen with a summary. If you like what you see, you can always click through to the full copy on the CASES site.

Some browsers offer you a plug in to read RSS feeds in your browser, such as:

• Firefox - RSS - live bookmarks

Some RSS feed readers are...

• Feedreader
• BlogStreet Info Aggregator
• AmphetaDesk
• Wildgrape NewsDesk 1.1
• Beaver
• SharpReader
• KlipFolio
• BlogExpress
• RSSConnect
• Awasu Personal Edition

I have the RSS reader. Now what? Now you need RSS feeds to read. Just like the ones CASES has provided on this page. Each feed is just like the address of a Web page. All you need to do is use the 'subscribe' function of your RSS reader to start receiving updates from a particular feed.

Makes sense. But what about XML? 'Extensible markup language', or XML, splits information (be it content or images) by markers like 'headlines', 'introductions', 'footnotes', or just about anything else, making it easier for computers to locate specific information using those markers.

Let's say you're stuck in a library, with a million books. All you have is an author's name - 'Goldie', to help you find something on, for instance, breeding goldfish. After an hour of searching, all the card file yields is a book called 'Pure Goldie: The Life and Career of Goldie Hawn'. Pretty frustrating, yes? Now, what if someone were to read all the books, neatly marking all data and sorting it into everything from 'title' and 'author' to 'fishing' and 'breeding'? If this were to happen, you would find something on goldfish in approximately 0.005 seconds, wouldn't you? XML examines information online, fitting it into structures that can be called upon to give you exactly what you want.
