Senior Execs Dig Broadband

Senior Execs Dig Broadband 05/26/2004 02:41 AM
Well, it looks like we may finally be getting past the era when senior execs still needed their emails printed out by an assistant, so they can read them on paper. 99% of senior executives surveyed now use the internet at work, and 97% use it at home. In fact, 7 7% have broadband access at home, and many use PDAs and wireless technologies (both handheld devices and wireless networking) in their homes. When they're online, it seems like they do just about what you'd expect them to do: a fair amount of time is spent doing email. When they surf the web, they're most likely to be reading business news (which, one hopes, includes a daily visit to Techdirt). They also have no problems buying things online, with approximately 80% buying airline tickets and books or reserving hotel rooms online. It seems clear that the era of the completely clueless senior exec when it comes to the internet is quickly fading away.

Sending Software Execs To Jail For Bad
Security

Sending Software Execs To Jail For Bad
Security 12/19/2003 01:03 PM
It's pretty easy to make suggestions like this when you're sitting at a desk writing articles, and not writing code. Over at News.com, Charles Cooper is suggesting that the way to solve the cybersecurity issue is to put the fear of jail into software execs. Basically, he wants a Sarbanes-Oxley for cybersecurity that says that if a system is not secure, the executives of a company that makes the products can go to jail. While he is right that many security problems are due to sloppy programming, programming is not quite the same as accounting, and mistakes are going to slip through - not because of fraud (as in most accounting issues), but because it's nearly impossible to find every potential security hole or imagine every possible attempted intrusion scenario. While such a law likely would improve security on a number of products, it would also create a huge burden on software companies (and make many smart execs wary of becoming a software CEO). While it might make sense to increase the liability of software companies that do a bad job, there has to be a limit, or it will make it absolutely impossible for any new software company to ever get started.
