Check out Cisco’s Free Weekly Risk Report

By jheary on Mon, 03/23/09 - 2:18pm.

On a weekly basis Cisco’s Intellishield group will post a free overview of what’s happening in the security world. The reports provide a high level overview of what’s happening in these areas:
*Vulnerability
*Physical
*Legal
*Trust
*Identity
*Human
*Geopolitical
*Miscellaneous
*Upcoming Security Activity

I find the geopolitical information very interesting, mostly because it is hard to find it elsewhere.

The risk reports are also available as podcast downloads or via RSS feed.

Take a look at their archive of Risk Reports here

Enjoy!

The opinions and information presented here are my PERSONAL views and not those of my employer. I am not a spokesperson for my employer in any way.
