Happy Friday, and Happy Halloween! If you're looking for some thought provoking reading, my good friend Gunnar Peterson presented what is truly a masterpiece about information security in a cloud environment at the mnemonic RISK Conference in Oslo, Norway this week. I wouldn't do it justice to attempt to summarize it fully here, but he makes a number of excellent, anti-information security-establishment points about how we as a discipline really need to buck up and deal with the difficult problems in information security, rather than continue to do the same old thing that we've been doing, for, well, 5078 days.
This is excellent brain food - I encourage you take the time to read and digest it. Nice work, Gunnar! Check it out: Thinking Person's Guide to the Cloud.
