AP: Bush Expected to Sign Scaled Back Internet Security Plan
One of the criticisms of the change relative to this group is that the previous stronger wording for the network operator industry was watered down. Instead of expecting/demanding/mandating that the industry collaborate on network security (creating an ISAC and other measures), the latest draft simply recommends that the industry consider these measures. Is there anything happening with collaborative security policy and remediation in the industry? Has any effort showed progress towards an effective ISAC or similar? Can networks realistically collaborate on security, or do the political and operational barriers not justify the effort? Pete.
