Article: Security crisis? First, remain calm

[Shawn]

March 01, 2007 (IDG News Service) -- Security managers have to keep
their cool and clearly communicate with chief information officers
(CIOs) during a crisis affecting company networks, a top security
official with Microsoft Corp. said Wednesday.

Otherwise, trying to educate CIOs in a panic mode will complicate how
an attack is countered, said Greg Galford, Microsoft security
architect, who gave a presentation at the EuSecWest 2007 security
conference in London on Thursday.

Galford was a technical lead during a massive attack on Microsoft's
network in 2000 that prompted the company to make many changes to its
networks and its response approach. He now works with Microsoft's
Security Response Center, which handles new vulnerabilities and
exploits affecting the company's software.
