What do you really mean?



When I say "...dog..." what do you see in your minds eye?  Me?  Big, smiling yellow lab...I bet you see something completely different?

So..... when someone says that the "cloud" is more secure?  I know they see something completly different than I do.

One of my CIO friends asked me what was the greatest risk of migrating his HR practices to the "cloud"?  I explained that since his HR practices were already less than optimal, migrating them to the cloud meant that they could automate their crappy processes and perform more of them faster, in the "cloud".

What his company really needed was expert guidance BEFORE they migrated to the "cloud".  He thought I was kidding (being the SECRET CISO and all), he was surprised when the VP of HR agreed with me!

When someone tells you that the "cloud" is more secure, ask them what they see in their minds eye when you say "dog"...
