Pragmatic CSO Podcast #2 - Whack a Mole
Submitted by Mike Rothman on Wed, 2008-01-16 10:42.
Show #2 has just been posted and this week I jump into the time machine and remember back to the carnival that would visit 2 or 3 times a year. There was a game called "Whack a Mole" that I think is very appropriate metaphor for the challenges facing today's information security professionals.
I tightened it up a bit, so it's a touch under 6 minutes.
Check it out and as always, I'm interested in your feedback.

"Whack a Mole" is probably the best analogy I've heard yet. Far better than "cat and mouse."
But the biggest difference for security guys is that when you win at this "Whack a Mole," you don't win a stuffed animal. You simply win the right to keep whacking at a new bunch of moles.
