My good friend &#38; CISO of a mid-sized technology company, lets call him Alok, went into a budget planning meeting and came out as a shadow of his former self. To be more precise a 85% version of the Alok that I know. He had just been handed a 15% reduction in budget.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nofud.org&amp;blog=3571192&amp;post=92&amp;subd=nofud&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
