We came across an interesting InfoWorld article by Roger Grimes in which Bruce Schneier thinks computer security isn’t going to get any better in the next 10 years. Basically, security and complexity are interrelated. Security is getting better, but these advances are far outpaced by systems becoming more and more complex. Read the full article here. The interesting thing to contemplate is how this prediction could affect our careers as security professionals. Is this a good or bad thing for our careers? Good – probably because it offers career stability… Bad – because our jobs could become a lot more difficult… What do you think?
