writing an industry standard

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

The Investment Industry Association of Canada is producing a two-document guide on evaluating cyber risk in their third party (vendor) arrangements. The "context" part that lists 20 questions by relevance was substantially written by me! Happily, I was able to continue my work after my layoff, and make the document an unadulterated version of what I had in mind without any entanglements.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
