I was at CISCO when code red hit. People that normally sit in their cubies were running around in a panic. I think someone decided to pull the plug, literally. What a mess.

I remember this.

I didn’t use my account much. Didn’t affect me, but I remember.

I read the entire wordy article. For anyone interested in cyber security, there were several nuggets:
• [The] “multi-billion dollar cybersecurity industry is still failing to protect far too many of our systems. Among those lessons...” [detailed list of issues follows]…

• “The first cybersecurity degree program wasn't established until 2000 (at Purdue). We still lack useful metrics to know whether we are making significant progress and titrate investment. And we are still struggling with tools and techniques to create and maintain secure systems. All this while the market (and thus need) is expanding globally...”

• Links to a list of historic publications re computer security
