My question to Phorm
How much did you pay Ernst & Young for the audit?
Have you had an audit done by any independant computer security experts?

(for Phorm who are not based in the UK. Accountancy audits + GMTV = coverup)

If you connect all the spin put out by Phorm, to a power generator could you could solve the world energy crisis
With respect, Ernst & Young have years of auditing experience. Of course Phorm had to pay them. They will employ specialists in many fields including accounting, IT, forensic examination (computing and accounts), and business management and law, with offices and local experts all around the world. To even hint that Phorm could be involved in any cover up with Ernst & Young could put this message board in danger of breach of libel/defamatory rules in the UK, resulting in potential civil action against the hosting company, and the board owners....so be careful please.

Their audit was carried out using American privacy guidelines, which may well not carry any weight in the UK.

Phorm have already said that their systems and process can be audited to meet exacting UK standards (whatever they are), and I think its only a matter of time.

VM, BT and Talk Talk will have their own acredited Internet Security specialists in-house, or on contract, and they will be responsible for making sure that any equipment in place, permanently or on a trial basis meets UK RIPA standards and Internal security best practice.

I'd like to see the spin cut out, and get down to the real nitty gritty too. Sell it how you want, but webwise is just another link in the chain. A good browser and simple common sense will stop most phishing sites, and is yet to be proved that WW is a safer experience, or adds any value to Internet safety.
