Does anyone else think that it's only a matter of time before IT security is going to be a regulated industry?

- lucisferre 15y agoIt would only work if it was regulated by people who understood IT security.
- pilom 15y agoIn the US, there was a relatively recent regulation of IT security in the form of Department of Defense Directive 8570. This directive requires IT security folks who work on DoD contracts to have a certification from one of the major certification authorities (think CISSP). Personally I'm not a fan of required certification for a number of reasons, but at least the DoD is trying to improve the quality of contractors working in IT security.
- lawnchair_larry 15y agoIt's cute that they think they are trying, but CISSP really is a joke.
