1982 Machine of the Year was the Computer and the 2006 year end issue of Time magazine has ”You” - the IT Professional as the Person of the Year.
With the continued focus and increased attention on information security, many information security professionals find themselves to be in constant demand. What makes these InfoSec Professionals to be sought after? (See DNA of an effective InfoSec Professional) and the real question would be will 2007 be not just the Year of “You-the IT Professional” but also the Year of the “InfoSec” Professional?

So that means I’ve been Time’s Person of the Year twice now (2003 was “The American Soldier”)? That so rocks!

I guess you are, Michael … as The American Soldier and now as an IT Professional. If this year or one the years to come end up becoming the “Year of the InfoSec Professional”, that would make your be Time’s Person of the Year three times – :0)
