Security for the paranoid

Relax Dude !

"I require my kids to use at least 14 character passwords on our home
network and I'm considering issuing them smart cards.

I keep my PC's turned around so I can tell if anyone has installed a
hardware keylogger.

I never check in luggage when I fly.

I do my Internet browsing from a locked down VMWare box that has no
rights on my network.

I use terrafly.com to see what others might be able to see about my home.

It takes five passwords to boot up my laptop and check my e-mail.

One of those passwords is over 50 characters long.

I also delete unused services on my servers. I block unused ports. And I
install hotfixes the day Microsoft releases them. "
