Embedded Network Security
For a marketing guy, Josh Lucas at Extreme seems to really get it in a recent TechWorld article. Though he quotes the bogus statistic of “80% of attacks coming from the inside” his thoughts on the virtualization of security services and the role of 802.1X as “one of the first ideas of how to distribute enforcement through the network” are spot on. I wish Extreme had a bit more of a footprint in enterprise networks today so that their ideas would hold more weight in the standards bodies and in pushing the incumbents to work faster.
