Looking back over the past few years, it seems like threats are only getting worse. We've had the Stuxnet Worm, The WikiLeaks affair, China-originating attacks against Google and others, and the recent Egypt Internet blackout. [Disclosure: The Open Group is a sponsor of BriefingsDirect podcasts.]
But, are cyber security dangers, in fact, getting that much worse? And are perceptions at odds with what is really important in terms of security protection? In either event, how can businesses best protect themselves from the next round of risks, especially as cloud, mobile, and social media and networking activities increase?
How can architecting for security become effective and pervasive? We'll pose these and other serious questions to a panel of security experts to examine the coming cyber business risks and ways to head them off.
Please join me now in welcoming our panel, Jim Hietala, the Vice President of Security at The Open Group; Mary Ann Mezzapelle, Chief Technologist in the CTO's Office at HP, and Jim Stikeleather, Chief Innovation Officer at Dell Services.
Gardner: As I mentioned, there have been a lot of things in the news about security. I'm wondering, what are the real risks that are worth being worried about? What should you be staying up late at night thinking about, Jim?
Stikeleather: Pretty much everything, at this time. One of the things that you're seeing is a combination of factors. W

The other piece of the puzzle has been that legal and regulatory bodies step in and say, "You are now responsible for it." Therefore, people are paying a lot more attention to it. So, it's a combination of all these factors that are keeping people up right now.
Gardner: Is it correct, Mary Ann, to say that it's not just a risk for certain applications or certain aspects of technology, but it's really a business-level risk?
Key component
Mezzapelle: That's one of the key components that we like to emphasize. It's about
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8B9uoM8CDg0A6W0EB-ZaLS_gkla333aM3UwBvrb4HfSTnnFca7dvuBWJQYqKTxOFKCevqg6aXoTAB1y9lU5OuiDAZwqZ7C4SJigKNL4SYz2vHIEN8zPkeKcQGcJeU6JD40JhZ/s200/the-open-group.gif)
Gardner: How about complexity, Jim Hietala? Is that sort of an underlying current here? We now think about the myriad mobile devices, moving applications to a new tier, native apps for different platforms, more social interactions that are encouraging collaboration. This is good, but just creates more things for IT and security people to be aware of. So how about complexity? Is that really part of our main issue?
Hietala: It's a big part of the challenge, with changes like you have mentioned on the client side, with mobile devices gaining more power, more ability to access information and store information, and cloud. On the other side, we’ve got a lot more complexity in the IT environment, and much bigger challenges for the folks who are tasked for securing things.
Gardner: Just to get a sense of how bad things are, Jim Stikeleather, on a scale of 1 to 10 -- with 1 being you're safe and sound and you can sleep well, and 10 being all the walls of your business are crumbling and you're losing everything -- where are we?
Stikeleather: Basically, it depends on who you are and where you are in the process. A major issue in cyber security right now is that we've never been able to construct an intelligent return on investment (ROI) for cyber security.
We're starting to see a little bit of a sea change, because starting with HIPAA-HITECH in 2009, for the first time, regulatory bodies and legislatures have put criminal penalties on companies who have exposures and break-ins associated with them.
There are two parts to that. One, we've never been truly able to gauge how big the risk really is. So, for one person it maybe a 2, and most people it's probably a 5 or a 6. Some people may be sitting there at a 10. But, you need to be able to gauge the magnitude of the risk. And, we never have done a good job of saying what exactly the exposure is or if the actual event took place. It's the calculation of those two that tell you how much you should be able to invest in order to protect yourself.
So, I'm not really sure it's a sense of exposure the people have, as people don't have a sense of risk management -- where am I in this continuum and how much should I invest actually to protect myself from that?
We're starting to see a little bit of a sea change, because starting with HIPAA-HITECH in 2009, for the first time, regulatory bodies and legislatures have put criminal penalties on companies who have exposures and break-ins associated with them.
So we're no longer talking about ROI. We're starting to talk about risk of incarceration , and that changes the game a little bit. You're beginning to see more and more companies do more in the security space -- for example, having a Sarbanes-Oxley event notification to take place.
The answer to the question is that it really depends, and you almost can't tell, as you look at each individual situation.
Gardner: Mary Ann, it seems like assessment then becomes super-important. In order to assess your situation, you can start to then plan for how to ameliorate it and/or create a strategy to improve, and particularly be ready for the unknown unknowns that are perhaps coming down the pike. When it comes to assessment, what would you recommend for your clients?
Comprehensive view
Mezzapelle: First of all we need to make sure that they have a comprehensive view. In some
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ixqcCH2eK7Kx-e8vrLFnwJ2ZgKoQzfgYghAK17EcphEgBwxWjuNt5_3GlRnoNxkErQJKbg2TNsNBv1aG8yqYkdlExLWk2GgRX0mtRMBfis__9WWgH9zy3u0VaikH7Ce0Iex3/s200/Mary+Ann+Mezzapelle.jpg)
Their issue is around complexity, integration, and just knowing their environment -- what levels they are at, what they are protecting and not, and how does that tie to the business? Are you protecting the most important asset? Is it your intellectual property (IP)? Is it your secret sauce recipe? Is it your financial data? Is it your transactions being available 24/7?
And, to Jim's point, that makes a difference depending on what organization you're in. It takes some discipline to go back to that InfoSec framework and make sure that you have that foundation in place, to make sure you're putting your investments in the right way.
Stikeleather: One other piece of it is require an increased amount of business knowledge on the part of the IT group and the security group to be able to make the assessment of where is my IP, which is my most valuable data, and what do I put the emphasis on.
One of the things that people get confused about is, depending upon which analyst report you read, most data is lost by insiders, most data is lost from external hacking, or most data is lost through email. It really depends. Most IP is lost through email and social media activities. Most data, based upon a recent Verizon study, is being lost by external break-ins.
When you move from just "I'm doing security" to "I'm doing risk mitigation and risk management," then you have to start doing portfolio and investment analysis in making those kinds of trade-offs.
We've kind of always have the one-size-fits-all mindset about security. When you move from just "I'm doing security" to "I'm doing risk mitigation and risk management," then you have to start doing portfolio and investment analysis in making those kinds of trade-offs.
That's one of the reasons we have so much complexity in the environment, because every time something happens, we go out, we buy any tool to protect against that one thing, as opposed to trying to say, "Here are my staggered differences and here's how I'm going to protect what is important to me and accept the fact nothing is perfect and some things I'm going to lose."
Gardner: Perhaps a part of having an assessment of where you are is to look at how things have changed, Jim Hietala, thinking about where we were three or four years ago, what is fundamentally different about how people are approaching security and/or the threats that they are facing from just a few years ago?
Hietala: One of the big things that's changed that I've observed is if you go back a number of years, the sorts of cyber threats that were out there were curious teenagers and things like that
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBdy5nA4MGfEqizwQRLmaw4VQBt7aPGbsFkRsaM579HWyj5mvEzodsfSukBCP4su9PKQhsyQTUKk765gCmu5V2miDxMbN3JdHtDwpIJD_aVfTf8WBZmqjHhQYwRNTuyXlJjvUo/s200/hietala.jpg)
We had a case that popped up in our newspaper in Colorado, where a mortgage company, a title company lost a million dollars worth of mortgage money that was loans in the process of funding. All of a sudden, five homeowners are faced with paying two mortgages, because there was no insurance against that.
When you read through the details of what happened it was, it was clearly a Trojan horse that had been put on this company's system. Somebody was able to walk off with a million dollars worth of these people's money.
State-sponsored acts
So you've got profit-motivated individuals on the one side, and you've also got some things happening from another part of the world that look like they're state-sponsored, grabbing corporate IP and defense industry and government sites. So, the motivation of the attackers has fundamentally changed and the threat really seems pretty pervasive at this point.
Gardner: Pervasive threat. Is that how you see it, Jim Stikeleather?
Stikeleather: I agree. The threat is pervasive. The only secure computer in the world right now is the one that's turned off in a closet, and that's the nature. You have to make decisions about what you're putting on and where you're putting it on. I's a big concern that if we don't get better with security, we run the risk of people losing trust in the Internet and trust in the web.
When that happens, we're going to see some really significant global economic concerns. If you think about our economy, it's structured around the way the Internet operates today. If people lose trust in the transactions that are flying across it, then we're all going to be in pretty bad world of hurt.
Gardner: All right, well I am duly scared. Let's think about what we can start doing about this. How should organizations rethink security? And is that perhaps the way to do this, Mary Ann? If you say, "Things have changed. I have to change, not only in how we do things tactically, but really at that high level strategic level," how do you rethink security properly now?
Mezzapelle: It comes back to one of the bottom lines about empowering the business. Jim talked about having that balance. It means that not only do the IT people need to know more about the business, but the business needs to start taking ownership for the security of their own assets, because they are the ones that are going to have to belay the loss, whether it's data, financial, or whatever.
We need to connect the dots and we need to have metrics. We need to look at it from an overall threat point of view, and it will be different based on what company you're about.
They need to really understand what that means, but we as IT professionals need to be able to explain what that means, because it's not common sense. We need to connect the dots and we need to have metrics. We need to look at it from an overall threat point of view, and it will be different based on what company you're about.
You need to have your own threat model, who you think the major actors would be and how you prioritize your money, because it's an unending bucket that you can pour money into. You need to prioritize.
Gardner: How would this align with your other technology and business innovation activities? If you're perhaps transforming your business, if you're taking more of a focus at the process level, if you're engaged with enterprise architecture and business architecture, is security a sideline, is it central, does it come first? How do you organize what's already fairly complex in security with these other larger initiatives?
Mezzapelle: The way that we've done that is this is we've had a multi-pronged approach. We communicate and educate the software developers, so that they start taking ownership for security in their software products, and that we make sure that that gets integrated into every part of portfolio.
The other part is to have that reference architecture, so that there’s common services that are available to the other services as they are being delivered and that we can not control it but at least manage from a central place.
You were asking about how to pay for it. It's like Transformation 101. Most organizations spend about 80 percent of their spend on operations. And so they really need to look at their operational spend and reduce that cost to be able to fund the innovation part.
Getting benchmarks
It may not be in security. You may not be spending enough in security. There are several organizations that will give you some kind of benchmark about what other organizations in your particular industry are spending, whether it's 2 percent on the low end for manufacturing up to 10-12 percent for financial institutions.
That can give you a guideline as to where you should start trying to move to. Sometimes, if you can use automation within your other IT service environment, for example, that might free up the cost to fuel that innovation.
Stikeleather: Mary Ann makes a really good point. The starting point is really architecture. We're actually at a tipping point in the security space, and it comes from what's taking place in the legal and regulatory environments with more-and-more laws being applied to privacy, IP, jurisdictional data location, and a whole series of things that the regulators and the lawyers are putting on us.
One of the things I ask people, when we talk to them, is what is the one application everybody in the world, every company in the world has outsourced. They think about it for a minute, and they all go payroll. Nobody does their own payroll any more. Even the largest companies don't do their own payroll. It's not because it's difficult to run payroll. It's because you can’t afford all of the lawyers and accountants necessary to keep up with all of the jurisdictional rules and regulations for every place that you operate in.
Data itself is beginning to fall under those types of constraints. In a lot of cases, it's medical data. For example, Massachusetts just passed a major privacy law. PCI is being extended to anybody who takes credit cards.
Because all these adjacencies are coming together, it's a good opportunity to sit down and architect with a risk management framework. How am I going to deal with all of this information?
The security issue is now also a data governance and compliance issue as well. So, because all these adjacencies are coming together, it's a good opportunity to sit down and architect with a risk management framework. How am I going to deal with all of this information?
Plus you have additional funding capabilities now, because of compliance violations you can actually identify what the ROI is for of avoiding that. The real key to me is people stepping back and saying, "What is my business architecture? What is my risk profile associated with it? What's the value associated with that information? Now, engineer my systems to follow that."
Mezzapelle: You need to be careful that you don't equate compliance with security? There are a lot of organizations that are good at compliance checking, but that doesn't mean that they are really protecting against their most vulnerable areas, or what might be the largest threat. That's just a letter of caution -- you need to make sure that you are protecting the right assets.
Gardner: It's a cliché, but people, process, and technology are also very important here. It seems to me that governance would be an overriding feature of bringing those into some alignment.
Jim Hietala, how should organizations approach these issues with a governance mindset? That is to say, following procedures, forcing those procedures, looking and reviewing them, and then putting into place the means by which security becomes in fact part-and-parcel with doing business?
Risk management
Hietala: I guess I'd go back to the risk management issue. That's something that I think organizations frequently miss. There tends to be a lot of tactical security spending based upon the latest widget, the latest perceived threat -- buy something, implement it, and solve the problem.
Taking a step back from that and really understanding what the risks are to your business, what the impacts of bad things happening are really, is doing a proper risk analysis. Risk assessment is what ought to drive decision-making around security. That's a fundamental thing that gets lost a lot in organizations that are trying to grapple the security problems.
Gardner: Jim, any thoughts about governance as an important aspect to this?
Stikeleather: Governance is a critical aspect. The other piece of it is education. There's an interesting fiction in both law and finance. The fiction of the reasonable, rational, prudent man. If you've done everything a reasonable, rational and prudent person has done, then you are not culpable for whatever the event was.
I don't think we've done a good job of educating our users, the business, and even some of the technologists on what the threats are, and what are reasonable, rational, and prudent things to do. One of my favorite things are the companies that make you change your password every month and you can't repeat a password for 16 or 24 times. The end result is that you get as this little thing stuck on the notebook telling them exactly what the password is.
So, it's governance, but it's also education on top of governance. We teach our kids not to cross the street in the middle of the road and don't talk to strangers. Well, we haven't quite created that same thing for cyberspace. Governance plus education may even be more important than the technological solutions.
The technical details of the risks are changing rapidly, but the nature of the risk themselves, the higher level of the taxonomy, is not changing all that much.
Gardner: One sort of push-back on that is that the rate of change is so rapid and the nature of the risks can be so dynamic, how does one educate? How you keep up with that?
Stikeleather: I don't think that it's necessary.
If you just introduce safe practices so to speak, then you're protected up until someone comes up with a totally new way of doing things, and there really hasn't been a lot of that. Everything has been about knowing that you don't put certain data on the system, or if you do, this data is always encrypted. At the deep technical details, yes, things change rapidly. At the level with which a person would exercise caution, I don't think any of that has changed in the last ten years.
Gardner: We've now entered into the realm of behaviors and it strikes me also that it's quite important and across the board. There are behaviors at different levels of the organization. Some of them can be good for ameliorating risk and others would be very bad and prolonged. How do you incentivize people? How do you get them to change their behavior when it comes to security, Mary Ann?
Mezzapelle: The key is to make it personalized to them or their job, and part of that is the education as Jim talked about. You also show them how it becomes a part of their job.
Experts don't know
I have a little bit different view that it is so complex that even security professionals don’t always know what the reasonable right thing to do it. So, I think it's very unreasonable for us to expect that of our business users, or consumers, or as I like to say, my mom. I use her as a use case quite a lot of times about what would she do, how would she react and would she recognize when she clicked on, "Yes, I want to download that antivirus program," which just happened to be a virus program.
Part of it is the awareness so that you keep it in front of them, but you also have to make it a part of their job, so they can see that it's a part of the culture. I also think it's a responsibility of the leadership to not just talk about security, but make it evident in their planning, in their discussions, and in their viewpoints, so that it's not just something that they talk about but ignore operationally.
Gardner: One other area I want to touch on is the notion of cloud computing, doing more outsourced services, finding a variety of different models that extend beyond your enterprise facilities and resources.
There's quite a bit of back and forth about, is cloud better for security or worse for security? Can I impose more of these automation and behavioral benefits if I have a cloud provider or a single throat to choke, or is this something that opens up? I've got a sneaking suspicion I am going to hear "It depends" here, Jim Stikeleather, but I am going to go with you anyway. Cloud: I can't live with it, can't live without it. How does it work?
Stikeleather: You're right, it depends. I can argue both sides of the equation. On one side, I've argued that cloud can be much more secure. If you think about it, and I will pick on Google, Google can expend a lot more on security than any other company in the world, probably more than the federal government will spend on security. The amount of investment does not necessarily tie to a quality of investment, but one would hope that they will have a more secure environment than a regular company will have.
You have to do your due diligence, like with everything else in the world. I believe, as we move forward, cloud is going to give us an opportunity to reinvent how we do security.
On the flip side, there are more tantalizing targets. Therefore they're going to draw more sophisticated attacks. I've also argued that you have statistical probability of break-in. If somebody is trying to break into Google, and you're own Google running Google Apps or something like that, the probability of them getting your specific information is much less than if they attack XYZ enterprise. If they break in there, they are going to get your stuff.
Recently I was meeting with a lot of NASA CIOs and they think that the cloud is actually probably a little bit more secure than what they can do individually. On the other side of the coin it depends on the vendor. I've always admired astronauts, because they're sitting on top of this explosive device built by the lowest-cost provider. I've always thought that took more bravery than anybody could think of. So the other piece of that puzzle is how much is the cloud provider actually providing in terms of security.
You have to do your due diligence, like with everything else in the world. I believe, as we move forward, cloud is going to give us an opportunity to reinvent how we do security.
I've often argued that a lot of what we are doing in security today is fighting the last war, as opposed to fighting the current war. Cloud is going to introduce some new techniques and new capabilities. You'll see more systemic approaches, because somebody like Google can't afford to put in 150 different types of security. They will put one more integrated. They will put in, to Mary Ann’s point, the control panels and everything that we haven't seen before.
So, you'll see better security there. However, in the interim, a lot of the software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers, some of the simpler platform-as-a-service (PaaS) providers haven’t made that kind of investment. You're probably not as secured in those environments.
Gardner: Mary Ann, do you also see cloud as a catalyst to a better security either from technology process or implementation?
Lowers the barrier
Mezzapelle: For the small and medium size business it offers the opportunity to be more secure, because they don't necessarily have the maturity of processes and tools to be able to address those kinds of things. So, it lowers that barrier to entry for being secure.
For enterprise customers, cloud solutions need to develop and mature more. They may want to do with hybrid solution right now, where they have more control and the ability to audit and to have more influence over things in specialized contracts, which are not usually the business model for cloud providers.
I would disagree with Jim in some aspects. Just because there is a large provider on the Internet that’s creating a cloud service, security may not have been the key guiding principle in developing a low-cost or free product. So, size doesn't always mean secure.
You have to know about it, and that's where the sophistication of the business user comes in, because cloud is being bought by the business user, not by the IT people. That's another component that we need to make sure gets incorporated into the thinking.
Stikeleather: I am going to reinforce what Mary Ann said. What's going on in cloud space is almost a recreation of the late '70s and early '80s when PCs came into organizations. It's the businesspeople that are acquiring the cloud services and again reinforces the concept of governance and education. They need to know what is it that they're buying.
There will be some new work coming out over the next few months that lay out some of the tough issues there and present some approaches to those problems.
I absolutely agree with Mary. I didn't mean to imply size means more security, but I do think that the expectation, especially for small and medium size businesses, is they will get a more secure environment than they can produce for themselves.
Gardner: Jim Hietala, we're hearing a lot about frameworks, and governance, and automation. Perhaps even labeling individuals with responsibility for security and we are dealing with some changeable dynamics that move to cloud and issues around cyber security in general, threats from all over. What is The Open Group doing? It sounds like a huge opportunity for you to bring some clarity and structure to how this is approached from a professional perspective, as well as a process and framework perspective?
Hietala: It is a big opportunity. There are a number of different groups within The Open Group doing work in various areas. The Jericho Forum is tackling identity issues as it relates to cloud computing. There will be some new work coming out of them over the next few months that lay out some of the tough issues there and present some approaches to those problems.
We also have the Open Trusted Technology Forum (OTTF) and the Trusted Technology Provider Framework (TTPF) that are being announced here at this conference. They're looking at supply chain issues related to IT hardware and software products at the vendor level. It's very much an industry-driven initiative and will benefit government buyers, as well as large enterprises, in terms of providing some assurance of products they're procuring are secure and good commercial products.
Also in the Security Forum, we have a lot of work going on in security architecture and information security management. There are a number projects that are aimed at practitioners, providing them the guidance they need to do a better job of securing, whether it's a traditional enterprise, IT environment, cloud and so forth. Our Cloud Computing Work Group is doing work on a cloud security reference architecture. So, there are number of different security activities going on in The Open Group related to all this.
Gardner: What have you seen in a field in terms of a development of what we could call a security professional? We've seen Chief Security Officer, but is there a certification aspect to identifying people as being qualified to step in and take on some of these issues?
Certification programs
Hietala: There are a number of certification programs for security professionals that exist out there. There was legislation, I think last year, that was proposed that was going to put some requirements at the federal level around certification of individuals. But, the industry is fairly well-served by the existing certifications that are out there. You've got CISSP, you've got a number of certification from SANS and GIAC that get fairly specialized, and there are lots of opportunities today for people to go out and get certifications in improving their expertise in a given topic.
Gardner: My last question will go to you on this same issue of certification. If you're on the business side and you recognize these risks and you want to bring in the right personnel, what would you look for? Is there a higher level of certification or experience? How do you know when you've got a strategic thinker on security, Mary Ann?
Mezzapelle: The background that Jim talked about CISSP, CSSLP from (ISC)2, there is also the CISM or Certified Information Security Manager that’s from an audit point of view, but I don't think there's a certification that’s going to tell you that they're a strategic thinker. I started out as a technologist, but it's that translation to the business and it's that strategic planning, but applying it to a particular area and really bringing it back to the fundamentals.
Gardner: Does this become then part of enterprise architecture (EA)?
Mezzapelle: It is a part of EA, and, as Jim talked, about we've done some work on The Open Group with Information Security Management model that extend some of other business frameworks like ITIL into the security space to have a little more specificity there.
Gardner: Last word to you, Jim Stikeleather, on this issue of how do you get the right people in the job and is this something that should be part and parcel with the enterprise or business architect?
At the end of the day it's the incorporation of everything into EA, because you can't bolt on security. It just doesn't work.
Stikeleather: I absolutely agree with what Mary Ann said. It's like a CPA. You can get a CPA and they know certain things, but that doesn't guarantee that you’ve got a businessperson. That’s where we are with security certifications as well. They give you a comfort level that the fundamental knowledge of the issues and the techniques and stuff are there, but you still need someone who has experience.
At the end of the day it's the incorporation of everything into EA, because you can't bolt on security. It just doesn't work. That’s the situation we're in now. You have to think in terms of the framework of the information that the company is going to use, how it's going to use it, the value that’s associated with it, and that's the definition of EA.
Gardner: Well, great. We have been discussing the business risk around cyber security threats and how to perhaps position yourself to do a better job and anticipate some of the changes in the field. I’d like to thank our panelists. We have been joined by Jim Hietala, Vice President of Security for The Open Group; Mary Ann Mezzapelle, Chief Technologist in the Office of the CTO for HP, and Jim Stikeleather, Chief Innovation Officer at Dell Services.
This is Dana Gardner. You’ve been listening to a sponsored BriefingsDirect podcast in conjunction with The Open Group Conference here in San Diego, the week of February 7th, 2011. I want to thank all for joining and come back next time.
