"The only truly secure system is one that is powered off, cast in a block of concrete and sealed in a lead-lined room with armed guards - and even then I have my doubts. - Gene Spafford"
Russ McRee's HolisticInfoSec.org is dedicated to sharing information security content and resources in an open, clear manner, with the hope of helping improve infosec for all who seek to do so. Information security is best broken down to the most simple components: best practices and common sense. The threat-scape facing an information security practitioner is perpetually dynamic; we must adapt and evolve as do those threats. Holisticinfosec.org endeavors to aid in that process through dynamic content and timely topics in ISSA Journal's toolsmith. As well we know, those who would do harm never rest: protect your own.
Practice simplicity Seek to be proactive, rather than reactive Think creatively, but adhere to standards Employ best practices
