So I was at a meeting last week, and one of the high ranking members said something like this, which I'm sure you've heard before: Member: We've improved our communications by setting up this great website! It allows us to communicate all our super-important and highly confidential information. We had a marketing team put it together so it looks really professional and nice and is easy to use. We think this will really help our mission. Oh, and we had a friend of a friend do a quick free security scan for us, so it's secure too. So here's my simple and 100% accurate metric: If you spent more on your GUI than on your security, you don't have a secure application. Start preparing for the PR fallout of your website getting hacked now. -dave _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list [email protected] https://lists.immunityinc.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
