There is an interesting article in yesterday's RISKS-FORUM Digest (Vol 16 Issue 79) aka Usenet COMP.RISKS, entitled "InfoWar Level II in Miami" by Mich Kabay, Director of Education, National Computer Security Association. He brings to the the fore the issue of the cost of rumor spreading, spamming, flooded phone lines, pranks, done by folks on the net. The RISKS archives can be found in serveral places including the listserv@uga aka uga.uga.edu To find the article, send an INDEX to that LISTSERV. -- co-owner INFOSYS, TQM-L, CPARK-L, ERAPPA-L, JANITORS, LDBASE-L, et -L [log in to unmask] "Read my BITS" +1 814 863 1843 31 Shields Bldg. -- Penn State Univ -- University Park, PA 16802-1202 USA
