Let a Hundred Flowers Blossom
December 3rd, 2009 admin
I know many of us work in large, diverse organizations. The larger or more complex the organization, the more difficult it is to enforce uniform security countermeasures. The larger the population to be “secure,” the more likely exceptions will bloom. Any standard tends to devolve to the least common denominator. There are some exceptions, such as FDCC , but I do not know how…

AFCERT circa 2000...This video shows the United States Air Force Computer Emergency Response Team (AFCERT) in 2000. Kelly AFB, Security Hill, and Air Intelligence Agency appear. The colonel who leads the camera crew into room 215 is James Massaro, then commander of the Air Force Information Warfare Center. The old Web-based interface to the Automated Security Incident Measurement (ASIM) sensor is shown, along with a demo of the "TCP reset" capability to terminate TCP-based sessions. We have a classic quote about a "digital Pearl Harbor" from Winn Schwartau, "the nation's top information security analyst." Hilarious, although Winn nails the attribution and national leadership problems; note also the references to terrorists in this pre-9/11 video. "Stop the technology madness!" Incidentally, if the programs shown were "highly classified," they wouldn't be in this video!

I just got my hands on a new promo item our Marketing department came out with, which looks quite interesting: It’s Mikado, an old European stick game. Basically, the idea is to carefully pick up sticks without moving the pile, in order to gain points; player with the most points wins. OK, so the game is rather cute, but it is supposed to...

Today the Ponemon Institute announced results of a survey they conducted titled Growing Risk of Advanced Threats: Study of IT Practitioners in the United States .

Amazon.com just posted my four star review of At Large by David H. Freedman and Charles C. Mann. From the review : “At Large” is a “hacking” book published during the mid-1990s, but it doesn’t address the characters usually considered to be the “stars” of that era. Rather, At Large tells the tale of a...
