I cannot tell you how often I still see this...an unfunded IT or security mandate is NOT a mandate. Be careful! https://lnkd.in/erEzfsx #CISO #CIO #infosec

I'm no fan of the "National Cybersecurity Strategy Implementation Plan" - and even MORE government regulation of this industry - but was quoted in this piece nonetheless. Thanks, Colleen Frye! #infosec #cybersecurity #NCSIP

An #infosec oldie but goodie of mine. "You can't talk yourself out of a problem you behave yourself into." –Stephen Covey "Errant assumptions lie at the root of every failure." –Alec McKenzie "In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it." –Robert Heinlein ^^^...these and other goals to help you reevaluate your #CISO and #CIO initiatives before that dreaded #breach occurs.

With all the talk about the "TikTok ban", I think what America *really* needs is for Congress to pass the Read the Bills Act and the One Subject at a Time Act: https://lnkd.in/ebUcpFD6 https://lnkd.in/ejBRrtXj It's fascinating and downright scary what our so-called representatives vote for without ever reading or understanding. I've found that it's often best to read (and believe) the fine print. As I wrote about a year ago (below), there's more to this "TikTok ban" than meets the eye: https://lnkd.in/eV7jfJkA
The #RESTRICTAct is being marketed as a TikTok ban...a fight against threats to our national security. 🤣 It's WAAAY more than that (like most things federal government, eh?). Below is a great overview and a quick read on how the the "democratic" regime is hell-bent on controlling the people. I *knew* this wasn't about TikTok...I knew it was something bigger - just not something this big. Seriously, read it and *please* tell me I'm wrong...I'll be here, ready to have a dialog. AND I'll gladly update my stance if I'm wrong. I'm just here for the truth.

1moKevin Beaver, I cannot tell you how many times I have reviewed ISO 27001 certification audit reports and they justify the requirement for management support as asking them "Do you support the ISMS?". This may shock you but those going for certification respond "Yes". I know I am a dinosaur, but I would want to see the strategy, the budget based on the strategy, the approval or rationale for disapproval. Show me the money. I don't want your moral support, I want your money. This is why I guess people think I am hard on them.
