Hackers are now a bigger threat than the age old insider...
In a recent report from the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC), titled "Data Breaches: The Insanity Continues" found that 19.5 percent of reported breaches were the result of hacking. The second most common breach was insider theft at 16.9 percent third on the list is a category called "data on the move" at 15.7 percent which encompasses such things as a lost corporate laptop or briefcase. As the ITRC carefully notes... these statistics are based on incomplete data as many breaches are not reported, in many cases because differing laws in states do not require them to be reported.

How do I get my page to rank higher in google?
Question: How do I get my page to rank higher in goole?
Answer: If you figure it out let me know and we'll both be rich!
Just kidding! It's usually not too difficult to improve your search engine rankings by just following some simple guidelines when designing/maintaining your web site. However, one important thing to keep in mind regarding SEO (Search Engine Optimization) strategies is that there are no guarantees.

So where do we begin? With the basics...

A new decade a new blog... just what the world needed!
One of my resolutions for this year is to be more open in my business. This blog will hopefully serve as an organic collection of my thoughts on subjects of importance to my business goals and my clients needs. It will also house any interesting problems I encounter along the way... hopefully with a nifty keen neat-o type solution as the punch line. I'll try not to vent my frustrations too frequently, but I can't promise that I won't rant a little ever now and then on this journey. So with my intentions made known to all "teh interwebs"... here begins my journey into the blogosphere.
