Video: Bruce Schneier on Incident Response and His Next Book
Few figures in the IT security landscape command the respect and admiration of so many people as does Bruce Schneier. The well-regarded expert recently changed jobs, moving from BT to become the CTO of Co3 Systems in January of this year.
In a video interview with eSecurity Planet, Schneier explains why the incident response technology that Co3 Systems builds is an important part of the modern IT security lifecycle. A key part of what Co3 does is to automate the details of incident response, he said.

Bruce Schneier is a legendary figure in the security community, well-known for his expertise in cryptography and more recently for his insight into the surveillance activities of the National Security Agency (NSA). Schneier currently serves as the CTO of incident response management vendor Co3 Systems. In an interview with eWEEK at the RSA conference here, Schneier detailed his views on the NSA’s surveillance activities. When it comes to domestic surveillance and metadata collection, Schneier firmly believes that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is the right agency to handle that data. He noted that the FBI already has domestic security capabilities and is responsible for the national fingerprint database. “The FBI is where we have laws and we have transparency,” Schneier said. “Spying on Americans is not the job of the U.S. military; it’s the job of the FBI.”Schneier added that anything that involves actually breaking into networks should fall under a military command. In his view, the NSA should be focused on defense and communication security, making software and networks more secure…
