AT&T Plans CNN-style Security Channel
An anonymous reader writes "Infoworld has a story about AT&T's upcoming effort to create a CNN of network security. From the article: "Security experts at AT&T are about to take a page from CNN's playbook. Within the next year they will begin delivering a video streaming service that will carry Internet security news 24 hours a day, seven days a week, according to the executive in charge of AT&T Labs.""
It's only going to be available to AT&T customers. That's too bad. Now it doesn't sound nearly as cool or half as useful to me.
So if you can't have it for free, it's not as useful to you? sounds to me like you confuse usefulness and free-riding.
But anyone, as a "security professional" (what's that anyway? a bodyguard? a rent-a-cop? a Pentagon-paid mercenary like those operating right now in Iraq?), you probably won't be impressed by AT&T's service anyway, as it probably will be a channel for news coming straight from the administration and other news organisation's pundits, as I doubt they want to keep a staff of real professional journalists on the payroll.
