If you have never been breached, you probably don't want to pay. That's why I said infrastructure funding . increase cost for everyone microscopically, where we connect to the Internet. We can have vastly better insurance against disaster, at economy of scale pricing, or we can all continue playing Russian Roulette with our privacy, and Identity Thievery. - Al Mac . _____ From: JL Walls [mailto:jwallsatt () gmail com] Sent: Friday, March 30, 2012 9:38 AM To: Al Subject: Re: [Dataloss-discuss] [Dataloss] follow-up: RockYou to pay FTC $250K after breach of 32Mpasswords Who is going to pay for that?!?

We have heard variations on this story before. Why do we have to wait for a breach to find out some outfit is a pack of liars? Why can't Infrastructure funding pay for privacy security audits of start-ups, to find which are not a pack of liars? Then FTC, or other outfit, have web index identifying which outfits have passed inspections how recently, and which have not. - Al Macintyre _______________________________________________ Dataloss-discuss Mailing List (dataloss-discuss () datalossdb org) Archived at http://seclists.org/dataloss/ Unsubscribe at http://datalossdb.org/mailing_list Supporters: Risk Based Security (http://www.riskbasedsecurity.com/) Risk Based Security equips organizations with security intelligence, risk management services and on-demand security solutions to establish customized risk-based programs to address information security and compliance challenges.
