All, I've been asked to speak before an executive audience (C*Os) about the state of security. The group that's invited me wants some data points for these folks, i.e., whether security is improved/same, etc. The problem I am having with all the material I've so far encountered is that it's been provided by (you bet) C*Os. Alfred Huger has request that you please direct all responses to me (mailto:yodaveat_private) I'll post the summary results to the list. I appreciate that the questions are not specific. They are only intended to help frame the presentation for the C*Os Disclosure: I won't be paid for this presentation. 1: Our organizations' network security is better than it was prior to 911 (Y or N) 2: We have purchased and use better and more security technology than we did prior to 911 Better (Y or N) More (Y or N) 3: Our security posture is more proactive today than 6 months ago (Y or N) 4: Our organization acknowledges the importance of security and has a) revised policy accordingly (Y or N) b) increased funding for security (Y or N) c) made corresponding changes to our security services (Y or N) 5: Business continuity and disaster avoidance planning has received the most attention and funding (Y or N) 6: The concern with business continuity and disaster avoidance has diverted attention and funding from other security issues (Y or N) Thanks in advance for your assistance.
