There's an interesting article on Security Pipeline about the economics of information security. The article discusses why ROI is a poor measure, echoing my first post. But it misses out on a key point: that investing in security reduces your weighted average cost of capital and that you must include the cost of capital in your investment analysis.

Adam has pointed out a friend's new blog who has a set of interesting new blog posts, most about security and some about authentication and one in particular about Passmark's Sitekey - now deployed by Bank of America - and the issues he has with it.

The healthcare world is abuzz with the news that the Department of Health and Human Services is auditing Atlanta's Piedmont Hospital:
Neither Piedmont nor the HHS has confirmed that the audit was launched, and few details about it have been disclosed publicly. But an HHS document obtained by Computerworld shows that Piedmont officials were presented with a list of 42 items that the agency wanted information on.
Among them were the hospital's policies and procedures on 24 security-related issues, including physical and logical access to systems and data, Internet usage, violations of security rules by employees, and logging and recording of system activities. The document also requested items such as IT and data security organizational charts and lists of the hospital's systems, software and employees, including new hires and terminated workers.
