Leechers are definitively NOT welcome

In computing and specifically on this portal, being a leech or leecher refers to the practice of benefiting, usually deliberately, from others' information or effort but not offering anything in return, or only token offerings in an attempt to avoid being called a leech.  Do take the time to contribute articles, powerpoint slide show, study guides, videos, quiz questions, news, downloads, links, forum posting, etc...   If worst come to the worst and you do not have any free time to contribute, a donation is always appreciated as our operational expenses need to be paid on a monthly basis and money allow us to hire people to review and develop new content.

Forcing registration also ensures that we minimize the amount of junk that unscrupulous users attempt to post within our message area, comments, web links, download areas, forums, or any other place where they can post their unsolicited and unwanted messages. The greatest benefit of all is the fact that registration helps us in maintaining quality content.

NOTE FROM CLEMENT:

The message above was posted on my friend Dan Swanson on his mailing list.   If you wish to subscribe simply click on the subscribe link:   Subscribe

Under the URL http://www.cert.org/podcast/  you will find a large collection of podcast that are extremely interesting.  Do take a look and start racking up some CPE's.  All of this is available for FREE, that the price I wish to pay for my CPE's.

Here is the message:

This podcast is intended to motivate leaders to pay attention to enterprise and information security, and the risks of not doing so. It introduces two landmark examples of organizations that did not treat adequate security as a high priority. It places security in a governance context and introduces how security can be viewed as a competitive advantage.

It discusses creating a culture of security, demonstrating duty of care, and determining who is ultimately responsible for security. It provides some next steps for taking action.

NoticeBored latest newsletter on governance

August 2008 - information security governance
Dear Clement,

The field of corporate governance exploded onto management’s agenda following Enron’s collapse in 2000/2001 and the introduction of SOX (Sarbanes Oxley Act) in 2002. There has been some public discussion of IT governance since then but information security governance is still emerging from the murk.

This month we expand on what ‘governance’ means and how it relates to information security in particular. It affects our target audiences (staff, managers and IT professionals) differently so we explain the implications in practical terms, covering the essential elements that everyone should comprehend.

You may have seen the recent news about the arrest of a network administrator in San Francisco. As reported, the accused was solely responsible for designing, operating and securing the city government’s network. He allegedly refused to disclose the network admin passwords at first, preventing others from managing the network in his absence. While it’s far too early to determine whether there is any truth behind the allegations, the story has fascinating governance implications that find their way into one of the case studies and the newsletter.

Kind regards,
Gary Hinson

NOTE FROM CLEMENT:
I usually do not write articles that are out of topics. But his story and the presentation of Mr. Paush has really touched me in a very special way. His presentation was so full of truth about our values and life that I listened to it a few times. If you have NOT listened to it, I would recommend very strongly you do so.

The lecture is at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo

Randy Pausch's final talk at Carnegie Mellon, in which he celebrates having fulfilled his childhood dreams, was an international sensation
By RAMIT PLUSHNICK-MASTI

Associated Press Writer

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon University computer scientist whose "last lecture" about facing terminal cancer became an Internet sensation and the basis of a best-selling book, died Friday. He was 47.

Pausch died at his home in Chesapeake, Va., said Jeffrey Zaslow, a Wall Street Journal writer who co-wrote Pausch's book. Pausch and his family had moved there last fall to be closer to his wife's relatives.

Pausch was diagnosed with incurable pancreatic cancer in September 2006. His popular last lecture at Carnegie Mellon in September 2007 garnered international attention and was viewed by millions on the
Internet.

In it, Pausch celebrated living the life he had always dreamed of instead of concentrating on his impending death.
