I’m a professor for the Norwich University MSIA program, and since Sunday I’ve been here in Vermont for their residency week, culminating in graduation on Friday. It has been a great week! It kicked off with a wonderfully thought-provoking discussion led by Karen Worstell, former CISO for Microsoft, as well as former CEO at AtomicTangerine, and many other high-profile positions.

Don’t Be A Security Slacker
Sunday, March 25th, 2007Today I woke up to a beautiful, gorgeous spring morning…sunny, low 60’s (abnormally high for March), gentle breeze, the grass seemed to have gotten green over night, the birds are singing, the geese and ducks have come back after being gone for the winter and are swimming on our pond, a cute little chipmunk is eating from the birdseed and nuts I scattered on the patio outside my office door, what a great day!

I am always intrigued by the various viewpoints of folks in not only different industries, but also of those who have very little experience in dealing with information security, privacy and compliance versus those with a great amount of experience. It is very noticeable how the viewpoints shift from trying to address primarily only technical issues (overwhelmingly those with little experience) to the viewpoint of incorporating the issues throughout the entire enterprise and into all processes through procedures, awareness and responsibilities (overwhelmingly those with much experience).
