“Reducing Systemic Cybersecurity Risk”

I think the NATO paragraph is supposed to paraphrase this quote on p32:
"The main practical limitations to hacktivism are that the longer the attack persists the more likely it is that counter-measures are developed and put in place, perpetrators identified, and groups penetrated by law enforcement investigators."

Comment: Speaking of RHEL clone... (Score 1) 201
just found out a new RHEL clone (thanks to distrowatch.com News 03.21.2011) - PUIAS http://puias.math.ias.edu/ is an RHEL clone "... started long before CentOS or other projects were available."
The question is: if CentOS fizzles for whatever reasons, how many will switch to one of the less than 5, one-man-show RHEL clone, how many will dig in and pay for RHEL, and how many will switch to non-RHEL?
How To Preserve Videos Pirated in the 1930s?->

cultiv8 writes "From an interview on NPR:
The Institute of the American Musical in Los Angeles is home to footage collected by one of the earliest pirates —Ray Knight of Jacksonville, Fla. Between 1931 and 1973, Knight would make trips up to Broadway and sneak a 16 mm camera into theaters. He eventually collected footage of over 175 musicals. Knight's family gifted the films — which, in many cases, are the only visual record of many of the earliest musicals — to the Institute of the American Musical when Knight died. But, there's a problem. The institute is a one-person operation that has been housed in a Los Angeles duplex for the past 30 years. The tiny nonprofit is having a hard time finding a way to preserve the Knight films — and the rest of its archives.
How would you recommend they preserve the Knight films?"
