The psychology of security

I missed posting a link to this when it came out, but Infosecurity Today has got a great interview with Bruce Schneier of BT Counterpane in its May/June issue and on its site. They also link through to a longer essay on this topic that Schneier has posted on his website here.

It’s pretty much essential reading. He also talks about the insider risk that I’ve previously mentioned, and says “I think companies underestimate the severity of insider threat”, as well as proposing why.
