Security Awareness for Ma, Pa and the Corporate Clueless
Well, the term "Security Awareness for Ma, Pa and the Corporate Clueless" certainly caught my eye as I viewed this site. I wasn't quite sure if the author was being humorous about the statement or if he was really being serious. I guessed that it was a little bit of both.
As I read the subtitle, which promises security tips and tricks that offer on the people and not the technology, I expected to be bombarded by jargon that will be of little help to my poor, not-so-security-savvy brain. But it was not so.
I started reading and at first, I was fascinated with the stories compiled within. The blog entries, to me, seemed just like a compilation of stories and articles the author found while surfing the net. As it is so, the entries do revolve around one certain topic - security. It is great though; the stories cover a wide range of topics and are quite interesting.
Design-wise, the blog itself has a very simple one. It is a straightforward, no-nonsense kind of layout. However, through its simplicity, it emphasizes on the fact that this blog is not some unthought of kind of blog. It has a purpose and that purpose is security.
As I said, this blog is straightforward and has a purpose. It is a great blog to visit to find out, if not everything, some good tips and trick about security. Though most of the entries are just links of articles with a little bit of summary up front, it is a great one to visit to find out more about security. I would suggest anyone of any age to visit just to find out more at what they cater to best - security.

According to the website, itself, “Security Awareness for Ma, Pa, and the Corporate Clueless” (which I will refer to as “SAMPCC” in this review) “gives computer security tips and tricks to government, corporations and home users everywhere. We focus on the people - not the technology.” There are supposedly six contributors, but when I went through the posts on the main page, in my initial skim-through, I saw that only Greg Hoffman was contributing anything.
I also noticed something else: although the website says that it gives security tips, I couldn’t really see any tips. It seemed that the posts were links or excerpts of news pertaining to computer security. For example, there were posts about major sites being hacked, and then there would be a link to the original news article. Where were the tips?
The layout, itself, is rather plain: your average Blogger layout and there seems to be no information about the authors when clicking on their names, except for Greg Hoffman, but even that information was sparse. All I learnt was that he was in marketing, but that was something in comparison to the others. I began to wonder if there really were other authors.
All-in-all, SAMPCC is interesting, because it provides interesting news articles about the computer and internet industry, but if you’re looking for security tips or a personal weblog, look elsewhere.
