IBM Says Attacks to Boost System Security Concerns

Reuters, 10/2/2001
<a href="http://www.reuters.com/news_article.jhtml?type=technologynews&StoryID=257483">http://www.reuters.com/news_article.jhtml?type=technologynews&StoryID=257483>#

Last month's deadly attacks on U.S.  landmarks will change corporate
computing by boosting attention on system security, Louis Gerstner,
chief executive officer of International Business Machines Corp, said on
Tuesday. 

"This tragedy and others have brought home that security of systems,
applications and data is a very serious issue," Gerstner told the Nikkei
Global Management Forum in Tokyo. 

"I think you'll see a topography, a mapping of information
infrastructure in corporations that will be quite different as we go
forward."

He said security issues were combining with cost issues to drive
companies away from the distributed computing model of the 1980s, which
left data scattered among expensive personal computers on desks
throughout companies, and often vulnerable to viruses or other security
problems. 

"The need before this tragedy was cost.  Now there's a new issue,
security, which will lead to an architecture that has far more
concentration of data, processing and applications in secure servers,
and much more lightweight, protected access devices," he said.
