Kim Cameron on the disappearing Perimeter:
The perimeter of the enterprise is dissolving in an environment requiring greater collaboration, oursourcing and integration with both suppliers and customers.

Pete over at Spire Security points out the obvvious(which alluded me):
As far as I can tell, Bruce Schneier's current Wired column, MySpace Passwords Aren't So Dumb, is intended to be taken seriously. The article is supposed to be about how "good" passwords on MySpace are these days, and there isn't a hint of irony in his statement:He also points out that if you're not going to do two-factor authentication, then don't worry about long passwords. If any data is important enough or vulnerable enough to require a strong and therefore annoying password policy, use two-factor authentication."But seriously, passwords are getting better."I am at a loss to explain how he can come to this conclusion when every single one of the 34,000 passwords he analyzed were stolen through a phishing attack. What he should have said was: "This shows that a 1-character password (the shortest they harvested) is just as secure as a 32-character password (the longest they harvested)"

I read the NY Times article on Jonathon Schwartz take-over at Sun. My concern is that Sun is going to the consumer market for an iPod-esque homerun product.
Mr. Schwartz contends that Java is the No. 1 driver of growth at Sun, ahead of Solaris, its operating system for corporate computers. "More teenagers recognize Java than they do Microsoft, because that is what they have in their pocket on their cellphone," he said in an interview on Tuesday. "Shame on me if I can't find a way to monetize that."
