The Security Catalyst

I am excited to introduce to you a new program that I host and produce for Cornell University called “Driving the Digital Revolution.”

Driving the Digital Revolution is a simple, but powerful, way to consider the changes taking place around us every day. The digital revolution has led cultures from poverty, literally changed the face of global business, local business and even impacted on the family structure. Without question, the digital revolution both counts on and plays an active role in shaping how people protect information.

Cornell takes its role in driving the digital revolution seriously. In both education and research, emphasis is placed not only on the field of study, but in how that subject is being transformed by advances in computing and information resources. It realizes that as ideas and technologies are advanced, we have an obligation to not only consider the consequences, but to study and anticipate the unintended consequences.

I am sharing this with you for two reasons:

(1) I am passionate about this series and the opportunity to work with other experts to dig deeper and uncover important concepts that are driving the digital revolution; their words have a lasting impact on me, and I believe they will on you, too.

(2) We are at a place in our industry when we need change. We need to grab on to a vision of hope and drive change. Studying how Cornell participates in driving the digital revolution is a blueprint for our success.

So sit back, plug in and consider the words — and passion — of Dean Constable and how they apply to what you do. Working together, we can change the way people protect information.
