hi sc-l, While I was on vacation last month, Gartner held its Information Security Summit in Washington. John Pescatore, one of Gartner's senior analysts and an important proponent of software security asked me to participate in a panel (together with Howard Schmidt) on the Obama administration's plans for cybersecurity. Since I couldn't make the panel, we recorded a video response to John's questions which John showed at the summit. The questions were formulated to prompt a reaction to Melissa Hathaway's 60-day review and Obama's speech at the White House.
This month's informIT column is devoted to US Cybersecurity plans and my thoughts sparked by John's questions: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1379758 The original video is now up on the Justice League blog as well: http://www.cigital.com/justiceleague/2009/07/14/moving-cybersecurity-past-cyberplatitudes/ As always, I welcome your feedback. gem company www.cigital.com podcast www.cigital.com/silverbullet podcast www.cigital.com/realitycheck book www.swsec.com _______________________________________________ Secure Coding mailing list (SC-L) SC-L@securecoding.org List information, subscriptions, etc - http://krvw.com/mailman/listinfo/sc-l List charter available at - http://www.securecoding.org/list/charter.php SC-L is hosted and moderated by KRvW Associates, LLC (http://www.KRvW.com) as a free, non-commercial service to the software security community. _______________________________________________
