If this variety and magnitude of incidents were to occur to physical resources – unauthorized access to sensitive data, disclosure of personnel information, significant fraud, espionage, and degradation of function – there would be widespread outcry, investigation, and significant disciplinary action against those in charge. Unfortunately, we have developed an attitude and culture that views failures and compromises of important computing systems as inevitable and acceptable. This is dangerous, and threatens the future economic and military safety of the
country. ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as lists-ip () insecure org To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
