Security - The Lies We Live By October 19, 2010

British Computer Society, East Anglia Branch presents:

Chris Mayers, Security Architect at Citrix Systems (UK) Ltd, will be delivering a talk on the theme of Security Theatre, defined by security guru Bruce Schneier as "security measures that make people feel more secure without doing anything to actually improve their security." This isn't just confined to protecting the public: it affects corporate IT too. Some common security measures aren't just a waste of money, they make security worse; others work, but for the wrong reasons. Which IT security lies do you live by?
