    Just a few quick notes here...
    
    I've updated the links on the C4I.org mainpage, I know there are some
    real diehards on ISN who really enjoy what little nuggets of
    information I dig up and find interesing enough to post online.

    Did anyone notice the NIPC advisory posted on February 11th?
    
    http://www.nipc.gov/warnings/advisories/2003/03-002.htm
    
    It has four additional security checklist links at the bottom of the
    advisory with an additional www in front of the usual www you would
    have, for instance...
    
    http://www.www.sans.org/topten.htm  
    
    I know we're in a national crisis of impending terrorist attacks, or 
    then again maybe not...

    But how hard is it to check your links to make sure they work?
    For that matter, go to a site with any information on it?
    
    http://www.www.unixtools.com/securecheck
    (Just delete that extra www to see what I mean) :)

    And if anyone cares, to little fanfare, the Department of Homeland 
    Security has released the much awaited, and delayed...
    "The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace"
    
    http://www.whitehouse.gov/pcipb/cyberspace_strategy.pdf
    
    76 pages that will get looked at once or twice and filed away like 
    alot of computer security policy does, only to be pulled out when 
    something bad happens and you need to point fingers at someone.
    
    Cheers!
