Rethinking what it means to win in security

Written by Chris Bedel | Jul 10, 2017

Are you winning in cybersecurity?  Michael Santarcangelo at CSO Online challenges us to rethink what "winning" actually means.  

In the article, Michael argues:

  • Security is not a sprint
  • It's not a marathon either...
  • He urges us all to consider "reasonable security"
  • He warns us to be careful of "risk catnip"

Overall, Michael makes some great points, and we like the risk-based approach and agree with applying a sense of economics to cybersecurity (i.e. don't spend $100 to protect $1).  

It's a thought-provoking read and can be found here:
