InfoSec Compendium: December 17th

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

It has been well over a month since my last Compendium post and I want to apologize to all my readers for the delay. There is no real excuse for my lack of attention to my posts, other than to say that “real life” has been taking up more than 100% of my time.
With all things being equal I plan on adding a few more posts by years end with the expectation of getting things back on track in 2010. I also plan on introducing a new blog called “Healthy IT” that will focus on IT and the security needs of the Healthcare Industry.
For now here are a couple interesting links:

1 – What To Expect in Securityin 2010.

2 – Trend Micro 2010 Future Threat Report.

3 – F-Secure Security Threat Forecast 2010.

4 – Firefox, Opera, Safari browsers top list of high risk software.
