> The chickens will continue to come home to roost until people treat digital security as seriously as physical security Do people take physical security seriously? It doesn't seem like it. Anyway, when I was an undergrad in the 1990s and took a computer security class our professor (Gene Spafford) talked about security being primarily an economic question. And that is generally how security, both physical and digital, has been treated since forever. And how it will always be. The economic and physical damage caused by poor digital security is a rounding error compared to everything that happens in the real world. As long as you understand that the following link is at least partly tongue-in-cheek, you may find this to be an entertaining read: Cybersecurity is not very important http://www.dtc.umn.edu/~odlyzko/doc/cyberinsecurity.pdf http://www.dtc.umn.edu/~odlyzko/doc/cyberinsecurity.pdf
