What are the key defensive measures that can mitigate the risk and impact of security failures in an organisation -To tackle this, I would define security, security failures, measures taken against security breach/failure, ofcourse giving examples along the way. There are so many real life examples that have happened recently..think of anonymous hacking hb gary by exploiting user trusts, using similar passwords across your accounts, ignorance. -For impact you can consider the US government in the wake of wikileaks.

Start with securing the internal network (Wireless access points, fireproofing, computer locks etc). then move to the perimeter and beyond (Use firewalls, encryption, Buglar proof etc). I guess that gives me 1 mark. /Bonz On Thu, Apr 21, 2011 at 12:00 PM, george < theonlydamnedavailablename@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear Question Asker, Your question is amorphous and though this IS an IT forum, could span to physical security, lock-picking, manufacturing, military etc. So be kind enough to narrow down. -ty On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 8:47 PM, Gichuki John Chuksjonia < chuksjonia@gmail.com> wrote:
