Frank Abagnale tells the inside story on IT security

You might know him best from the Spielberg film “Catch Me If You Can”, but former fraudster Frank Abagnale has spent the last 30 years working with the FBI on improving security, and more recently this has included a big element of IT security.

There’s a good Q&A with him at ComputerWorld that’s worth reading, as he makes some interesting points about IT and financial security – not least that the internal threat to companies is more significant than external hackers.
