November 10th, 2008

The International Herald Tribune writes that a report of online security will be released tomorrow, noting that “attackers bent on shutting down large Web sites — even the operators that run the backbone of the Internet — are arming themselves with what are effectively vast digital fire hoses capable of overwhelming the world’s largest networks.”

Takeaway for marketers: Time to think twice about your information security and backup procedures. You may not be able to prevent an attack, but you should be in a position to minimize the damage should one occur.
