The convergence of physical and logical security isn't a new idea, but largely untapped by solution providers. Groups like 1nService and PSA Security are bringing these largely segmented channels together for this $7 billion market opportunity.
Despite optimistic outlooks from leading technology vendors, tech stocks offer no safe haven for wary investors seeking relief in the free-falling market. Fifty of the leading publicly traded tech vendors and distributors lose ground in Sept. 29's record-breaking sell-off.
Monday, Sept. 29, 2008, will go down in the record books as one of the worst
trading days in the history of the U.S.
stock market. After the House of Representative failed to pass the massive $700
billion financial system bailout package, investors pulled their money out of
the market by the billions of dollars.
While the technology sector remains relatively healthy, tech vendors were not
immune to the ravages of the free-falling market. Overall, the technology
sector lost 8.9 percent of its combined value. All 50 of the leading publicly
traded technology vendors and distributors monitored by Channel Insider
suffered losses in trading. No technology sector or vendor type escaped the
sell-off.

trading, see below.
