RE: How to create security awareness in top management

["William Woodhams" <William.Woodhams () wegmans com>]

Depending how much time you have you can show how insecure your company
is by showing real attacks and information that could be Easley
acquired.  Also possibly deface the "test" public site and bring it up
is another idea. This is just showing them that hey we are vulnerable.

Subject: How to create security awareness in top management

Hi all

I have got a job to make top management aware that their company must
take care about information security (presentation and discussions).

I will not go into too much technical details and I would like to start
with some good stories which show in an easy and understandable way
that information security is needed.

Does anybody has some information where I can take out some good ideas
to
start with?

--
Any help is very much appreciated.
Regards,
Mike
