Great talk on economics of distributed system security
December 3rd 2008 02:26 pm
Gunnar Peterson from here in St. Paul gave an interesting keynote at the “Quality of Protection” conference, called The Economics of Finding and Fixing Vulnerabilities in Distributed Systems. Gunnar also posted it on his blog.
His remarks talk very intelligently about information security investment and the challenge of iimproving security in exchange for money spent. He makes some terrific analogies based on “money investment” strategies of Warren Buffet. I’m still reading it, actually – there’s a lot of good thinking there.
