Anybody remember that slick marketing line? You are a winner if you picked OS/2 . OK I will admit it, I was an OS/2 user. I liked it much better than Windows 3.1 and used it even after Windows 95 came out. I still think it was a superior product to anything that the guys from Redmond put out. Why don't we all run OS/2 today instead of Windows?...

Making Threat Modeling Work Better

The Article has images
2007-10-17 00:23:53 by sdl in The Security Development Lifecycle
Adam Shostack here, with part four of my threat modeling series. This post is a little less philosophical and a lot more prescriptive than the one about flow. It explains exactly how and why I changed a couple of elements of the process. The first is the brainstorming meeting, and the second is the way trust boundaries may be placed The...

Is there a better way to design interfaces?

2008-03-26 09:36:20 by HASH0x8b4f62c in StillSecure, After All These Years
 
Michael Farnum has a great post up today wondering if we in the security industry have been stifling our creativity by designing all of our management interfaces in one of two paradigms. The GUI kind of look and feel pioneered by Checkpoint or the command line standard that Cisco has made their own. It struck a chord with me because it was...

However, I could see how someone would be fooled on this one, thinking someone filed a bogus complaint against them. Almost as good as the subpoena story I heard from a customer...

Better than locks: A security approach to 'free'

2008-05-30 00:00:00 by HASH0x8b04a88 in Network World on Security
 
In January, Kevin Kelly wrote an essay entitled "Better Than Free" that explained which concepts held value on the Internet. This generated a lot of interest, mostly around the question of how best to make money out of these concepts.
