I read his comments differently. He wasn't against honeypots, he just felt they were overdeployed. I think if you don't have a lot of time to devote to building and maintaining one they are of limited value. It may be more time saving to copy the defenses of those who do take the time to learn the latest exploits. Face it, if you don't spend a bunch of energy on your IDS then it's a toy.

Since I've been getting so much junk mail recently, I've had to put a new system in to stop it. There is no record of you having sent me any e-mail from this address in the past, so I need you to verify your e-mail. You can do that by just replying to this message. Once you've done that, I'll get the message you just sent me, and your address will be added to my list so that this system will never bother you again.
If you couldn't be bothered reading that last bit then JUST SEND A REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE.
Oh, and when you reply, please don't change the subject line of the message. It breaks things. Thanks.

Dude, I just know you're in Mensa when you pun like that!
I strongly second this post!
I'm studying for a CISSP cert and have found Secrets and Lies to be informative and inspiring.
I know some people who could use minix to open their minds.
Of course this leads one's imagination to the solution for power outages, ... explosive bolts!
I'm sure the permits will be a piece of cake to get.
This door has all the vulnerabilities of the physical key PLUS all the vulnerabilities of the new barcode system.
It's like putting a pair of firewalls in parallel. An intruder only needs to know how to bypass one of them to be into your soft and chewy insides.
He needs a back door. D'oh!
