\"\"<\/a>Admittedly, women are easy targets in our society. Our physicality has placed us at a\u00a0disadvantage in hostile environments. This year’s rape statistics in New York City alone has jumped nearly 24% from 2010.<\/p>\n

In the Eastern Republic of the Congo<\/em>, a woman is raped every 5 minutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But in August, the East Coast met Irene–a formidable woman.<\/p>\n

Irene picked a fight.<\/p>\n

She ‘won.’<\/p>\n

If you live on the East Coast, you certainly had an encounter with,<\/p>\n

Mrs. Irene Hacker.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The word hacker implies stealth, at least in the traditional sense of the word. Yet the Irenes’ of the world do not subscribe to stealth.<\/p>\n

They give ample warning.<\/p>\n

Hurricane Irene certainly did.<\/em><\/p>\n

Her fists delivered wind, rain and floods. Vermont, NY\u00a0 lies crushed under her fury.<\/p>\n

Apparently, the etymology of the word ‘hacker’ is evolving. Many Hacktivists <\/a>do announce their intended prey.<\/p>\n

September’s issue\u00a0<\/a> of the the Chief Security Officer magazine (CSO) discusses how\u00a0 Trend Micro has uncovered evidence of a major targeted malware attack that has managed to infect over 1,400 computers in Russia and its former Soviet satellite states. This year is littered with similar reports.<\/p>\n

Maybe, I have been miscalculating the efforts of IT professionals to protect their enterprise especially when I consider all the preparation in anticipation for\u00a0 Hurricane Irene. There was just so much the President Obama, FEMA and state and local officials could do.<\/p>\n

The parallels between the threat from natural disasters and cyber attacks are glaring, yet subtle; apparent yet disguised, noted yet ignored.<\/p>\n

Not unlike the\u00a0 often under-estimated power, contribution and influence of a woman to her family, her society—her world.<\/p>\n

And, as with Hurricane Irene and Cyber-terrorism, go ahead, make preparations, but the presumption that you have the ‘eye of the storm<\/em>‘ pegged may prove arrogant.<\/p>\n
