Nightmare or Dreamscape? Security is Everyone's Problem

Munir Kotadia writes on ZDNet Australia:

It is not just the hackers, spam and DDoS activity we need to worry about. These days it isn't even safe to simply surf Internet because there is no way of knowing if a Web site has or hasn't been compromised -- take the IE-exploiting Facebook ad, for example, or the Sydney Opera House Trojan.

These are legitimate sites and yet people have most likely put themselves at risk by simply visiting them.

So how do you go about protecting your organisation in such a hostile environment? According to Graham Andrews, the CIO of PricewaterhouseCoopers, the task is "a nightmare".
