That’s surprising, because the Department of Homeland Security is a co-sponsor of a study titled “National Computer Security Survey.” At the end of next month, it will be sent by Rand to thousands of businesses in 37 sectors. A DHS rep says there are no plans to issue a press release on the subject until after the survey is completed.
Who’s more interested in getting the word out now? Lobbyists. “This is a pretty important survey,” explains Paul Kurtz, executive director of the Cyber Security Industry Alliance.
