SCC Discussion Forums: Hot Friday Update (July 18, 2008)

It is hot today is Upstate NY; the same is true for some forum discussions taking place this week:

Also a notice about HOPE2008 and any members attending: HOPE2008
Next Week
I have been working on a two-part approach to guide smaller companies to better protect information without increasing stress. Comes down to two questions:
1. what are the five (and only five) most important things for any company to do (and why)?
I have some ideas around this that I hope to flesh out this weekend and share for dissection and discussion in the forums. We’ll package up and present the final list.
2. once the initial five things are done (the ones that do not require any thinking), what are the next steps?
I felt like limiting this to 10, maybe 12 - but now I’m not convinced. I’d like to collaborate to build a sequence of steps; again, small business in mind. 
Look for some details and a discussion thread in the coming days. I look forward to collaborating, learning and starting to pull together some guides and resources for people. 
Note: this dovetails with the series I have been authoring on how groups can build better solutions by leveraging the stuff that already exists. I’ll be finishing that up over the next few days (the pace here has really picked up). This will be an opportunity to put it into practice!!
