John Price – Want Effective Security? Trust your people!

Do you run a small-to-medium sized business?  IT shop? Compliance team?  Are you tasked with implementing security for an organization that is attempting to pass a customer audit, SAS70 or set of regulations?  Where do you start?

If your background is in technology, chances are that you will be purchasing and deploying security tools.  If your background is in legal/compliance, you probably will be frantically writing policies complete with plenty of “thou shalts” and “thou shalt nots”.  While both of these approaches are valid and necessary, they are incomplete.  By themselves, they may provide the illusion of security, but as many companies have found, that illusion is easily shattered and the costs can be staggering.
