Fair and Balanced part 2!

I did a foxnews.com interview today at 10:30 about Lockheed Martin, Sony, LulzSec, etc. But I can't find a link to the video, so instead you should watch this video of Mark demonstrating SILICA's new features - http://www.immunityinc.com/movies/SILICA_7.3-release.mov.(SILICA is back up to its normal price of 2500 or so, but if you've only ever used Aircrack or Netstumbler or one of the other open source wireless hacking tools, then you're in for a treat...) My main theme on the foxnews thing was that you can learn almost everything you'll need to know about a corporation's security just by looking at their corporate structure. On one, very far, side of the bell curve you have companies who's CISO position only appears when they're headlining Fox News and CNBC for getting hacked. Most companies, however, range somewhere more normal. The question I like to ask is: "How often does your security group kill or slow down a business initiative from a business unit?" If the answer is "Very very rarely" then you're looking at a very insecure company. Or a company with lots of "security opportunities", as they say. :> I know Cigital went around doing a thousand page questionare to determine how security was built at various software companies. But you really can boil all that down to "what cool features did security kill".
