Special Edition March 2013 - Employee Security: Should we Educate or Ignore

This is a special edition of the Social-Engineer.Org Podcast.  Why?  We read this blog post from Bruce Schneier and decided we just couldn’t stay quiet.  He claims that educating through security awareness programs is a waste of time and money and that (quote) “I personally believe that training users in security is generally a waste of time and that the money can be spent better elsewhere” as well as “computer security is an abstract benefit that gets in the way of enjoying the Internet.”

So at the risk of ruining the fun Internet for our employees and clients we decided to have a little chat about this topic and discuss security education from the trenches….

We invited special guest Ben0xA on to talk with us about this very important topic and his blog post
