Quotes:
“You have to hold people accountable. ... 55% of CEOs in the United States today view
information security as a waste of time, and the reason why they feel that way is because
they’re not held accountable.”
“Information security is not about information, or security, as much as it is about people. Period.
People suffer when things go wrong.”
