Last week I came across two stories about PayChoice (a payroll processing company) and the United States National Security Agency (NSA) getting hacked and really didn’t think twice about them.

By this time next year, I am hopeful that one of the key preventative online risk technologies [...]

Even though I needed to spend Day 2 in my hotel room finishing a deliverable I have to tell you from my experience with Day 1 (05/11/09), Microsoft has definitely put on a great conference. The talks that I’ve been to have been nothing short of top-notch and I am looking forward to heading back [...]
