Re: Rethinking FUNSEC

["Hubbard, Dan" <dhubbard () websense com>]

Funsec has hit its peak of inflated expectations and certainly hit its plateau of productivity, due to that we have 
decided to relegate Funsec to the newly created "Jesters Quadrant".

I don't have a column anymore. Nowadays I copy funsec and paste it into Word and sell it as white papers to vendors.

Hi Team,

IMHO, the garbage in the press are influencing policy makers in
governments
and corporations to the wrong conclusions. Conclusions which lead to
actions
which is not addressing the reality of the threats. This is now not
something to be laughed at, but something which is hurting the industry.

I'm already started to tear into articles which as flawed, not
researched,
and garbage. I will continue to do that.

But we have another option - take the FUNSEC dialog public. This is not
opening the list, this is taking these conversations - which deal with
critiquing press articles -  public and searchable.

Thoughts?

Barry
