I was sent to this while listening to the Security Now podcast about computer security. (It is available off iTunes or you can go to grc.com for more information.) I was struck by how much jive there was between computer system security and the physical security I deal with daily. The Security Maxims were written by an analyst for the US Department of Energy looking at nuclear power facilities. Upon reading, they have relevance and I hope to illustrate some of them later with some examples. A link to this list is on the side.
As a teaser, here is one.
Gossip Maxim: People and organizations can’t keep secrets.
Think about that a bit the next time you are changing the combination on a safe and the staff find the new dialing hard since the old code has been in use for over 5 years.
