[http://backbytes.computing.co.uk/2008/07/when-staff-shou.html] As we all know, IT security is a problem that hardware and software alone can't solve. You also need a brain. "I used to work for a large credit reference agency based in the East Midlands," says Gordon McIntosh at T-Systems. "I had a team-mate who had risen to a fairly high technical position thanks to the company policy of promoting those who had been there longest. "One morning she showed concern at a large stack of floppy disks balancing precariously on my desk. She was concerned that by stacking so many floppy disks together I was in danger of propagating a virus through the stack." -- David Harley, ESET Research Author AVIEN COO: http://www.avien.org http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
