The deeper you go the more interesting it gets, malware command and controls located on the same network, fake banks, money mule recruitment sites, pharmaceutical scams and spam hosting - they or their customers if they are to forward the responsibility are definitely multitasking.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[
      My mother-in-law is, to give her some credit, an intelligent lady. However, faced with an upgrade from Windows XP to Vista and IE7 from IE6 and you have a situation akin to explaining quadratic equations to a two year old. Both circumstances will result in heavy objects being thrown around in frustration. 

So, the idea of Microsoft to provide a range of "<a href="http://www.microsoft.com/enable/aging/seniorpc.aspx">Senior PC packages</a>" is, in my mind, borderline genius and something I wish I had thought of first. Computer Weekly <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/enable/aging/seniorpc.aspx">mock the idea</a> in this weeks magazine, something I think is very unfair given that I'm sure some of their editorial team are getting on a bit and would probably be able to make good use of the built-in prescription software...

If home computing can be made as easy as taking the PC out of the box, plugging it in and turning it on (not a word from the Mac users please - I know you've been able to do this for years) then that's to be encouraged for everyone, not just the elderly. And if it stops the "support" calls from my mother-in-law then that's priceless!

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[
      It was fun to be in the dock as one of the defendants in the mock trial of A N Corporate at <a href="http://www.infosec.co.uk/">Infosec </a>last week. I acted the role of the hapless and rather impotent CISO working for an overbearing CIO. There was a serious point to the exercise though - those barristers were playing for real and the legal terminology was all correct. The sentences handed out to the CIO and CEO, who were found guilty under section 450 of the companies act of destroying documents, reflected what would have happened in real life.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that there might be confusion as to role of the CISO. It's a role that has quickly evolved from being technical and focused on IT, to one that's strategic and focused on mitigating business risks across the full scope of Information Security. 

My own role encompasses all aspects of managing risks to data and is, I'm pleased to report, far more respected than the part I played at the mock trial. But I've often had to push hard to put security on the agenda and I think some of the more traditionaly minded individuals in the organisation were taken aback by some of what I was putting on the table as being within scope of my responsibility when I first took on the role. 

The role of CISO is evolving and in fact, I think within a few years from now it'll probably no longer exist at all. Large organisations are going to require individuals whose role focuses on managing risk and compliance. The traditional view of the CISO as being a technical IT security specialist is going to very soon be as outdated as those who still hold that view!

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[
      Only a week to go until this years <a href="http://www.infosec.co.uk/">Infosec Europe</a> at Olympia. The program this year looks, in my opinion, to be the best yet including input from some well known industry names such as Bruce Schneier, Alan Paller, as well as my fellow bloggers David Lacey ("Locking Down Social Networking Vulnerabilities" on the 22nd) and Philip Virgo ("Why Do We Need an E-Crime Unit?" on the 23rd). 

I'll be participating in the "The Mock trial of A.N.Corporate" on the 24th in the Interactive Theatre, where, according to the blurb "The excitement of a real courtroom is brought to Olympia, when a mock trial is conducted where various members of a corporation (It Manager, CISO, CIO and CEO) are put in the dock, and questioned by the defence and prosecution." It should be fun!

There are some exciting <a href="http://www.infosec.co.uk/page.cfm/Action=ShowCategory/CatPageID=7">new exhibitors </a>on the list for this year including <a href="http://www.behaviosec.se/">Behaviosec </a>whose product "Behavio identifies unauthorized users within seconds by detecting anomalies in keyboard and mouse behavior."

I'm looking forward to seeing you there.
