Ever wished you were an emperor so that you could impose your whims to everyone around you? Would you be a benefactor or a tyrant? In this SecurityFocus article, Scott Granneman takes the role of dictator of the security world and presents a couple of great ideas that would help improve security for millions upon millions of people.
“In this column I’d like to declare myself Emperor of the Security world. Don’t worry, I won’t force you to worship me as a god, nothing will be renamed in my honor, and no one will be forced to gather seashells (although my car does need a washing…). As for perversions, this is the Internet we’re using here, so everyone’s safe. No, instead, I plan to rule as a benevolent dictator, trying to bring wisdom and reform to a troubled land. As your new emperor, these are my security decrees…”
We Say: Sometimes, we all need a tyrant in our life to put us back on the right path. The IT security world certainly needs one right now.
