Outside the Asylum

out of hiatus

I’ve neglected this blog for quite a while now. Various events and machinations that affected my career used up all my headspace. Things are calming down and becoming more sensible. More headspace for interesting technical architectural topics. fun!

I’ve started working on a product and service development program at eSecure. My interests and ambitions have found some nice synergies with eSecure’s business development goals.

All through my career i’ve dabbled in IT Security. However i’ve never really considered myself a “security guy”. But after landing in a security role almost accidently, i’ve come to realise that it’s really my true calling.

It comes down to the fundamental security triad; Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability. In the past in my telco jobs, it was predominantly about Availability, Integrity a close 2nd and not far behind, Confidentiality. Now i’m dealing with all three in roughly even amounts.
