LogLogic's Anton Chuvakin's "Five Mistakes of Data Encryption" article just went live at ComputerWorld. This article covers some of the mistakes that often occur when organizations try to use encryption to protect data at rest and data in transit and thus improve their security posture.
The first mistake is not using encryption when it is easy and accepted. I'm talking about those pesky plain text protocols such as telnet and FTP. One can argue that people should have abandoned the above protocols for a host of other reasons, but, as the latest Solaris telnet 0day fiasco indicates, enough people are still using them.
Read the rest of the Anton's top 5 list here.
