Security design, Ray-Bans, and phones – Recap

Security design, Ray-Bans, and phones – Recap

Security design weekly recap for May 24-30.

This week: John A. Macready and Bausch & Lomb. The original Ray-Bans were designed for pilot safety. Then they became cool. In our cybersecurity program, do people experience our controls as safety goggles or as cool sunglasses? Principle: Hand out Ray-Bans not safety goggles

Previously: Bas van Abel and the Fairphone. Design the security program, say with NIST controls, tied to strongly held corporate values. If it can be done with a smartphone, it can be done with a security capability. Reinforce values to gain support, speed implementation, and further adoption. Principle: Frame the initiative: reinforce values

One thing more: You can listen to Bas van Abel on the TED stage: Changing the Way Products Are Made.
