Taxonomy of Information Assurance

Found an interesting work in progress by Abe Usher, which is working "Towards Taxonomy of Information Assurance". He is working on creating a taxonomy of information assurance, based on the three aspects of:

  1. Security services
  2. Information states
  3. Security countermeasures

It looks quite interesting. I look forward to seeing the final results in about 6 months. His initial results are now available, and are well laid out. Through an open collaboration process he hopes it will yield a useful tool for the security community to use in addressing information assurance issues.

I released a new study, the "INFOSEC Zeitgeist 2003" report that details the patterns and trends in 2003 in INFOSEC. Check it out =)
