A good CEO is typically known as an individual that not only has the ability to critically think, but the ability to think integratively. The founder of the Four Seasons hotel, Issy Sharp, created the Four […]

I think Meg Whitman, previously the CEO of ebay, could be classified as an integrative thinker. When she was first brought on as CEO for the company, she used salience to determine all of the variables relevant to transforming ebay into a major e-commerce corporation. This led her to splitting the company into 23 business categories, which then had thousands of subcategories. I think this goes to show that she wasn’t affraid of the complexity that comes with integrative thinking. I believe she also used causality to dertermine the multidirectional relationships between variables when creating the different subcategories. Her success as CEO shows when considering the fact that she started with about 30 employees to perform all processes across the company, yet by the time she stepped down, the company had grown to over 15,000.

I thought this was an interesting article about credit card skimmers. It goes in depth and shows picture examples of credit card skimming techniques and how to best protect yourself.
For starters, it’s a good […]

I thought this Wall Street Journal article was pretty good. It discusses using webcameras as a means to attack other larger targets. This is basically the same as what happened when Dyn was hit with a DOS attack […]

Darin,
With all of these smart tvs, cameras, thermostats, refrigerators, etc, I expect that we will be hearing more about these devices being attacked. Everyone wants the convenience, but few people take the time to think about the security of these devices. I think that at minimum, there should be a warning that pops up when consumers are setting up the device. Something that warns them about what can happen if they don’t change their password or update their security settings and apply software updates. I don’t believe that all consumers will read these, but some will. I would also recommend that the manufactures require a password change after 30 days.

I thought this was a good read, especially for the cyber track. It has some really good themes within it. The author outlines 4 suggestions for rising through the ranks in the cyber security field.

Many universities such as Stanford University and University of Massachusetts-Amherst experienced the “less spoken” aspects of ERP implementation – the failures.
During the start of the fall semester, UMass […]-
It seems strange for an enterprise as large as a major university to have a single go-live day for a major ERP system. Due to the scope that an ERP entails, phased implementation makes a lot more sense. For instance, have a select group of students use the new system. The reason these universities might have done the implementation the way that they did was to reduce cost.
-
I’m surprised they had the go-live date so close to the beginning of classes. Was this the first time the system had experienced full stress? I agree with Michael — having a singular class or group test it on a smaller scale first would give the team a sense of how well the system runs under pressure. I think not having a back-up plan was the real killer here, however — the failure would not have been so catastrophic if there had been another, well-versed system to pick up where the failed ERP left off.

I thought this was a good read and relates to our investigations of fraud in a way that we haven’t really covered yet. What if you find fraud but the evidence left behind was tampered with to give the appearance o […]

Hi Darin,
Thank you for sharing this article to us! I really liked the seven recommendations and I read the article via your link! I think the first one: Get the right people looking at it, is the most important one because often times, the lack of qualified and experienced professionals to look at it, results some ignorance from ourselves that we did not focus on.
-
Getting the right people looking at the data is important. If you don’t have the right people looking at the data, what is the point of doing all of the work? You need decision makers and people that have a clear understanding of what the data says to be looking at it, so that it can be your base for making an informed decision.
-
Thanks for sharing Darin.
I agree with both Yulun and Blake, I also think that getting the right people looking at the data is the most important one out of seven recommendations. We analyze the data collected to make decisions, therefore it’s very critical that we have someone who understands the data and is able to make decisions that will bring value to the company.

I thought this was a neat article. It challenges standard risk measurement techniques by claiming that we often fail to account for the actions of people. I agree. I think it is easy to look at and mitigate risks […]
