are-companies-under-reporting-breaches
Posted by: admin 14 years, 10 months ago
A while back, I read in Brian Krebs' blog that "colleges and universities were more than twice as likely to report a breach as any other entity, followed by government agencies (17 percent) and businesses (15 percent)." (Emphasis mine.). A well-worded sentence that got me to wondering if significant under-reporting occuring.

I have just finished reading Gordon &Loeb's Managing Cybersecurity Resources: A Cost-Benefit Analysis and I highly recommend it for information security professionals seeking to learn more about the economics of information security.

WiKID got a nice review over at the Coffee Corner. I hope they do test the WiKID server on your home network. That is exactly the scenario we envisioned when we released the open source version. No reason why home users shouldn't be able to have strong authentication. I do want tot try to clarify some of the issues, if I understand them correctly:schneier-questions-need-for-himself

I read with delight this quote from omnipresent security pundit Bruce Schneier questioning the reasons for the existance of the security industry:
"We shouldn't have to come and find a company to secure our e-mail. E-mail should already be secure. We shouldn't have to buy from somebody to secure our network or servers. Our networks and servers should already be secure."
