Since they<BR />don't know what it actually is, none of them will actually use it.<BR /><BR />Yet another security framework will be announced with great fanfare, and a minor<BR />industry will spring up with people consulting and teaching you how to use it<BR />and/or get certified for it. Because it has a new name, few will realize that it is just<BR />a minor variation on one of the existing security frameworks.<BR /><BR />Even though we have just passed through a pandemic and have had ample<BR />examples of what went wrong with our business continuity plans, BCP will<BR />continue to be ignored.<BR /><BR />Ignorance, misinformation, and disinformation will continue to be spread via<BR />social media.<BR /><BR />Someone will promote yet another application for blockchain to solve an<BR />intractable problem, in a situation where blockchain technology is completely<BR />irrelevant.<BR /><BR />====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer)<BR />rslade@gmail.com rmslade@outlook.com rslade@computercrime.org<BR />Stand firm and immovable as an anvil when it is beaten upon<BR />- St. Ignatius<BR />victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm <A href="http://twitter.com/rslade" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/rslade</A><BR /><A href="http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/" target="_blank">http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/</A><BR /><A href="https://community.isc2.org/t5/forums/recentpostspage/user-id/1324864413" target="_blank">https://community.isc2.org/t5/forums/recentpostspage/user-id/1324864413</A> Thu, 31 Dec 2020 19:06:18 GMT https://community.isc2.org/t5/Threats/Happy-New-Year-What-are-your-predictions/m-p/42083#M203 rslade 2020-12-31T19:06:18Z
