Dear colleagues,
Following my request to participate in a survey last year,please find attached to this email the report Setting the Standard. It finalises an Internet Governance Forum pilot project concerning the slow deployment of internet standards, standards that, if deployed, would make the internet and all its users a safer place immediately.
That's a long and really interesting read, thanks for sharing! As a private user / SME part-time admin I'm probably not really part of the primary target group, but especially the conclusion and recommendation sections give a lot of thought for improving our own setup. Reaching out to the managers instead of only the technical folks to improve general security awareness is certainly the right direction, but my hopes for measurable improvements are low. Influencing in these areas mostly works top-down, with the possible exception of publications read and respected by the decision makers. Perhaps these magazines could be utilized to heighten awareness by publishing manager-level articles that don't just boil down to product recommendations but action plans for their IT departments? Cheers, Hans-Martin
