Como estoy vaguete y son las 2:30 de la madrugada segoviana (¡qué frío hace en este pueblo!), me limito a copiar y pegar, y dejar que los genios hablen por sí mismos… Predicciones estúpidas (y recurrentes) sobre la seguridad de la información en 2009…

‘Tis the season to predict (prediction tracker), BUT it is also a season to make fun of other’s idiotic or super-trivial predictions. Let’s start NOW!

“More activity from the cyber underworld” (here)  – ya know, hackers will hack, phishers will phish, spammers will spam type stuff we need more of Deep, deep insight in this.

“Computer users can expect to see more spam” (here)  – now that we are on the subject of spam

“Someone will unplug the Internet” (here sadly) – no comment, really.

“SCADA <anything REALLY bad>” (here) – to be really honest, I have not really seen it yet this year so no link, but it will come. Help yourself to previous year embarrassments

“The space <insert this vendor’s space> will be all the rage in ‘09!” (many) – if you are a NAC vendor saying this, you get 10x of the idiocy points. Congrats, you are now in prediction biz too

“Year of mobile malware AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN” (here) – the number of dangerous mobile viruses will grow 700% from 1 to 8 [OK, I admit there are more than that, but what is their risk today?]
