AntiOnline has made alerting the public to flaws in computer security its goal. New exploits are being developed on a daily basis. To say that you've 'secured a system' is an oxymoron. As with many other things in life, complacency is the worst trait a system administrator can have. Winn Schwartau agrees.
Vigilance is the key.
If you recognize that you're going to have to run to merely stay in place, you'll accept the scale and difficulty of the task ahead. However, if you put a number of measures in place and become satisfied, you will eventually leave yourself exposed. Modern soldiers don't go into battle with a medieval suit of armor. According to Schwartau, more than 60 percent of attacks result from an inside problem. So guard against internal problems, he warns.
