I recently interviewed John N. Stewart, Vice President and Chief Security Officer of Cisco Systems about an interesting aspect of security: The the bad guys collaborate while the good guys ignore each other. I thought this was really interesting and we all know how it works — we see a competitor’s security problems as an advantage to us. John’s point is that through collaboration we can be more effective in fighting them. Listen to the podcasts — it is in two parts:Part 1 and Part 2.
