Dell on cyber security: You're screwed

I’m at the Dell Analyst conference this week and the Thursday morning session was all about security.

The track was well attended, likely because a lot of people have become very concerned about security thanks to the news that hackers from China have managed to compromise a number of companies along with US weapons systems under development.

Simply put, it is increasingly obvious that we are in the midst of a cyber-war. Truthfully, we have been enaged in one for some time but seem to avoid talking about it. Interestingly, Dell's Chief Security Officer is a guy who apparently received a number of awards from the FBI. Plus, the company has acquired a number of security companies over the last several years. As such, they are one of the few firms that integrates physical security (how you move around the Dell campus) with cyber security. As such, Dell is arguably one of the most secure firms in what is traditionally a very security conscious segment.
