Alright, maybe it is not exactly research related but I think it’s pretty cool. We previously announced that McAfee SiteAdvisor has been acknowledged by the U.S. Department of Commerce with its “Recognition of Excellence in Innovation” honor. The award was presented by the Honorable Robert Cresanti, U.S. Under Secretary of Commerce for Technology, for the technology’s innovative approach to making the Internet a safer place to search and surf for consumers.

A couple of pics below from the McAfee RSA booth:
