        Believe me I love mangolassi, but sending management to a forum to read a security article, probably won't be as effective as sending them to a blog link.

          A tag seems to be missing on this article as it does not show up here.

            What makes management respond to one form of blogging in one way and not the other? That reaction should be a security concern. The difference between a blog and a forum is only one of perception.

              Not horribly targeted if this is the one talked about. This came to an admin email account.
              Office 365 spam filters caught this one.

              Interestingly, the first link goes to a bad place as expected.
              http://kismettic.com.tr/delta/getnum.php?id=NDIyNGpqYWRtaW5AampkcmFpbmFnZS5jb200MDQx
              But the second link (with a typo in the visible URL) actually goes to Delta.

                Sure, but if an individual knows that their boss would prefer blog post A to forum post B, then you give them the blog post instead of trying to convince them that their perception is skewed. That's called "keeping your job 101".

                  Not if security is your goal or educating the boss is important. It's feeding into emotional illogic. Depends if your job is "toe the line" or if you are in security. Given that it is a security post, getting the CEO on board with security is already important.

                      If the issue is illogical emotional response, just call it a blog. Because.... it is.

                        It has to do with legitimacy. Sure anyone can build a corporate style website, but it's quite a bit of effort compared to making a post on a forum and acting like an expert. Also, KnowBe4 is a known player and they produce regular, reputable content.

                                Look at curtis. He has alot of "cred" when you look at his SW points, But everything he posts is garbage.

                                  Remember that KnowBe4 is a verified vendor here in ML. So the same kind of verification process that you would have from someone checking a corporate blog.

                                      Look at curtis. He has alot of "cred" when you look at his SW points, But everything he posts is garbage.

                                      SW has no cred system. It only has an "activity" system. But I'm unclear what that means in this context. We are talking about the same person posting on one blog or another. Curtis posting on a corporate blog should be considered a joke, being on a corporate blog should not give him any credibility.

                                        Any legitimate blog would filter his post, before posting it. In a forum all posts can be found and/or linked.

                                            So a corporate blog on the Internet is like a verified corporate blogger on the Internet 🙂
