Lousy Security Advice

Posted August 28th, 2007 by

I had a friend, Mr Vlad the Impaler of blog comment fame, who sent me this article: 10 Pieces of Lousy Security Advice.

Numbers 1 and 4 (IIRC) are my favorite whipping-boy, c*mpliance. Yes, it’s lightweight reporting and fairly obvious to security dweebs, but it brings a tear to my eyes. =)

    I strive for blog comment fame. Maybe I should take tips from this “Vlad” guy.

    Well, for starters you have to be my neighbor, that limits the field somewhat. =)

    This is a late comment… but why the “…had a friend?”

    dre… someday you sould aspire to having this said about you:

    He manages information governance reform for a refugee aid organization and continues to have his advice ignored by CEOs, auditors and sysadmins alike.

    Now that’s what I call self-actualization!
