Two new security blogs you should add to your reading list
You wait ages for a new blog, and then two come along at the same time.
I'm delighted to announce that Sophos has doubled the number of blogs we offer our handsome and intelligent readers. No longer do you have to make do with just the Clu-blog and the SophosLabs blog, we can also now offer you new blogs by two other experts from the Sophos payroll.
First up, Paul "Duck" Ducklin has been working at Sophos for almost 15 years. During that time he's headed up a variety of departments including software engineering, global technical support and even (as he puts it) "for a few admittedly temporary weeks of vertiginously enormous budgetary power" our IT department.
Since 2001 Duck has been based in Sydney, Australia, where he acts as Head of Technology for our activities in Asia Pacific. Never short of an opinion - or a desire to express them - you can expect his blog to be quite lively.
Our other new blog belongs to Chester "Chet" Wisniewski, a senior security advisor working out of Sophos's Vancouver offices. Chet is responsible for working with the security community and communicating that information in an actionable way to security and IT professionals.
Chet's experience working with Fortune 500 organizations as a security consultant and network architect place him in an excellent position to share advice to customers about how to secure their networks and data against evolving threats.
So, take my advice and bookmark these guys' blogs right now (or sign-up for the RSS feeds if you prefer).
You can also follow Chet on Twitter. (We haven't yet convinced Duck to join Twitter, but we'll keep working on him).
Now, the only challenge remaining is enabling comments on our blogs - and then the fun can really begin. :) I'm told that's not too far away, but you know what IT people are like when they say "real soon now.."
