Sometimes, the pop-ups keep coming up and that means that their activities look repetitive toward a porn IP address that they may never have actually visited on their own. But the former CSO wouldn't take the time to listen, so some employees got fired for visiting porn sites they never actually visited.

Well, at least I now know why I've been treated as The Great Unwashed by some employees. Many security tyrants out there don't consider all angles to a potential security problem. And that's worrying.

At least, my co-worker's problem with pornography was solved, and the employees know that I am not the Ogre of Security Departments Past. Let's hope that will stick with them for a while.

Nevertheless, I'll need to continue to educate employees about security and try to figure out how to get them to trust my new security regime.
