Security

Security reminders

While looking through my del.icio.us links I found a couple that I haven’t had time to check in on lately. It is telling, really, that the sites I have not visited recently are those related to security best practices.

It is really entirely too easy to get sucked into other areas at work and rely on past practices to maintain security. But as things go in the world of tech, the rules, tools and environment change almost (it seems) daily.

With that in mind it is time to look again at the NIST Information Technology Security guidelines and the Center for Internet Security benchmarks.
