Thought I would share this interesting visual showing of the growth of malware delivery networks. Malware software has been around for years, but malware networks are increasing becoming a much more concentrated, dynamic and significant threat.

What clients share about Redpoint Risk
[May 17, 2011]
I often ask my clients for a brief client testimonial to share with prospective clients. Recently I received one from a client whom I have had the great opportunity to work with for the past several years.
I have worked with Nifco America, a Japanese manufacturing company since 2007 (Initially while still at Deloitte and continuing as Redpoint Risk). Our relationship represents a fundamental goal I set as an independent consultant; to be a responsible, respected, and dependable partner.
The testimonial itself is a letter, which can be viewed here.
A selected quote from the testimonial:
“Chad is extremely knowledgeable of controls within computer system and understanding the security risks from outside and well as from within the company. I would highly recommend his services to any company looking into becoming compliant with J-SOX or just looking to improve upon the security of their systems.”
I would like to personally thank Nifco for the opportunity to work with them in the past and ongoing into the future.
