Story: Research reveals stalemate in 'IT security war'

I think what is happening at the moment in the IT industry is right! We need to take security as a serious matter right at the begining. If someone out there says he spends more time thinking about/ deciding on security measures or what type of authentication measures he needs to put up in his company or application, well, I would say he is sensible.

IT Security is a prime concern for financial institutions; how would they account for loss in terms of currency. There is a lot of loss happening in the form of phishing attacks or authentication problems.

With the increase in technology and technology being widely available to the world; there would always be serious concerns over implementing security strategies at the right places, more importantly in the right time.

No offence meant but, what use is business and business strategies without protecting yourself first. Jus' wondering how is it a stalemate? Why do we not see it as a measure to protect future distress.
End of the Day- It is the people in the IT Security dept of the company who gets the blame for not acting fast. And when they act, we headline it stalemate.

I appriciate and thank "ZDNet" for giving me this oppurtunity to speak out. I always follow ZDNet to track the latest news in Internet Security.
