Title:
Paul Simmonds on Nasty Questions to Help Assess Security Vendors
Description:
In an exclusive interview with Security Vibes, Paul Simmonds, Board Member of the Jericho Forum and Global IS Integrated Assurance Director for Astra Zeneca, revealed that the Jericho Forum is soon to release a set of 'nasty' questions to ask security vendors. These 'nasty' questions will enable purchasers of security products to be able to quickly assess exactly how secure the vendor's products actually are. The questionnaire is based on the Jericho Forum's 11 Commandments for working securely in a deperimeterised security architecture which many companies have been using as a basis for use with their RFP (Request for Proposal). The questionnaire will have several benefits and impact. In terms of benefits, having a ready made checklist of questions: - will help companies unfamiliar with de-perimeterisation to know the right questions to ask security vendors - will ensure compliance with the 11 commandments of secure de-perimeterisation - will cut through the marketing hype and ensure thoroughness of assessment of a security product from a vendor The long term impact will be that the strength of security products will be raised and that vendors themselvs will use the questionnaire as a checklist to ensure that their own products are secure before launching for general usage.
