Want to get a feel for somebody? Read their blog as a start. Security expert and provocateur Marcus Ranum, CSO of Columbia, Md.-based Tenable Network Security, has this write up posted in the “events” section of his blog
 
    “Computer security has historically been a disaster and continues to be one [according to Ranum]. Many practitioners have attempted to explain the issue in terms of risk management, failure to communicate, or lack of education. In reality, it is a simpler social problem and is not solvable by any means short of a redesign of human behavior.”
