Fred Durst Quotes

If you wanna know how not secure you are, just take a look around. Nothing's secure. Nothing's safe. I don't hate technology, I don't hate hackers, because that's just what comes with it, without those hackers we wouldn't solve the problems we need to solve, especially security.

I don't hate technology, I don't hate hackers, because that's just what comes with it, without those hackers we wouldn't solve the problems we need to solve, especially security.

While there have been terrific advances in the state of technology around heuristics, behavior blocking, and things like that, technology is only a part of the approach to solving the problem with the more important aspect involving putting the right process in place.

I learned the technology and tradecraft of electronic security in self defense, with a lot of expert help.

Security is an endless race - one that you can lead but never decisively win. Yesterday's best defenses cannot fend off the attacks of today or tomorrow.

Security isn't just a feature, it's a base, it's a fundamental, right.

We put up the very best cyber security - what I call infrastructure to stop them, but [hackers] constantly [didn't stop].

Nothing is absolute in security.

Personally, I tend to be more interested in security and performance-related issues than other things.

You have to have as many defences in place as you possibly can. But even then of course - and it's important to stress this - you cannot guarantee being able to prevent every attack or every kind of attack.

If you think technology can solve your security problems, then you don't understand the problems and you don't understand the technology.

The only truly secure system is one that is powered off, cast in a block of concrete and sealed in a lead-lined room with armed guards -- and even then I have my doubts.

As cyber threats evolve, we need to evolve as well.

The question is, really, does the nonexistence of another attack prove that the programs that are in place are working?

Security used to be an inconvenience sometimes, but now it's a necessity all the time.

Because I don't believe that it's really desirable to have security on a computer, I shouldn't be willing to help uphold the security regime.

First, our focus on security is on the infrastructure itself. So it is all about how you protect the network, the device, and the application that is riding on the server.

I keep my stuff updated all the time. Being in the security industry, I keep up to date with securities.

I really believe that we don't have to make a trade-off between security and privacy. I think technology gives us the ability to have both.

I won't be satisfied until I've put the entire security industry out of work.

You can't defend. You can't prevent. The only thing you can do is detect and respond.

It was immediately clear to me that security was a cross-cutting issue, so rather than dividing the space up in parallel with each of the other areas, I wanted security cut across the areas in addition to having its own content.

There is no such thing as perfect security, only varying levels of insecurity.

We demand privacy, yet we glorify those that break into computers.

It's kind of interesting, because hacking is a skill that could be used for criminal purposes or legitimate purposes, and so even though in the past I was hacking for the curiosity, and the thrill, to get a bite of the forbidden fruit of knowledge, I'm now working in the security field as a public speaker.
