[dundee] Are Users Right In Rejecting Security Advice?

[gordon dunlop]

I have just come across, an interesting and perhaps controversial, article
on computer security and mainstream users. There is a podcast and a paper
that can be downloaded on the subject by Cormac Hereley (Microsoft). I have
downloaded but not yet read the paper yet ( a thousand other things to do),
so I will leave it to the Ethical Hackers on what their opinion about the
article is (as it is their specialist  subject). I think the author of the
article is proposing that new ways in implementing computer security and
ways for educating mainstream users should be changed.
