Wired.com runs a community called Innovation Insights, dedicated to "new thinking for a new era of technology."  Earlier this week, I contributed this article on cloud security, reflecting on some of the interesting trends around cloud network access and the impact on customer adoption.

I encourage everyone to dig deeper when a colleagues reference "security concerns" as one of the reasons holding them back from public cloud adoption models.  What are those concerns?  Are you exposed to them today?  And how do you mitigate risk?

Many cloud computing pundits state that cloud computing introduces a new method of Infrastructure-as-a-Service; however, that is just not the case.

Every week, it seems, we hear about another attack on IT security in the financial services sector.  This heightened awareness has firms taking extensive in-house precautions to raise firewalls, lock down apps and servers, and pursue other best-practice strategies.

But under the strain of constant threats and rapid evolution of new technologies, IT leaders can't help but wonder: Is what I'm doing enough?

It's Halloween: one of my favorite holidays. And between the free candy, hot cider, fresh apples and costumes always lurks a good ghost story.

In movies and around campfires, a ghost can be fun. But the real ghosts threating enterprise security professionals can be anything but. For the application security decisions made in the past sometimes have ways of coming back to haunt us - and our apps.
