Everyone is pushing for and jumping onto the bandwagon of New Technology which includes Mobile Devices, Cloud and of course Social Media.

I had an opportunity recently to join CIO Perspectives in New York City (which I want to elaborate more on in another article, watch for it...) and I was appalled how so many just plainly ignored the security of these new technologies.

Here is a great article that gives you a good idea at how blind everyone seems to be to the insecurity these technologies represent.  <Click here for article>

This to me, is amazing.  Claiming that Hackers Own the PCs and talk about:

"To satisfy these requirements, the key characteristics of a post-PC architecture are scalability, semantics and security."

Yet there is nothing in the article that even touches on Security.  It again is ignored.

Doesn't this reek of the Hans Christian Andersen's story, the Emperors New Clothes?

I really think everyone is so blind to the dangers that they just do not care.  Security is to many, an intangible item that doe snot need any focus or funding UNTIL a breach or their names get into the headlines for a "Lack of Security" issue.  But this is a topic for yet another new and upcoming article, so watch this website.  I got some good ones coming!
