risk management

I have a strong interest in entrepreneurship. As my followers know, I am a long-time member of JCI, and I am a serial entrepreneur myself. I developed companies in both Norway, and in France, and I have had my share of success and failures.

I have decided that this blog - the Roer.com Information Security blog will change and narrow it's focus a bit, and focus on information security for entrepreneurs and start-ups. I hope that this small change in focus will not drive away my current readers, while continue to grow my readership.

By doing this change, I hope to fill what I think is a gap in the Security blogging arena - to help start-ups and SME's to adequate security. As far as I see it, most security bloggers out there are in one or more of these three groups:

• vendor or service provider, focusing on promoting their own products/services
• (enterprise) risk management, focusing on what many SMEs will consider theory and not very relevant to their everyday focus
• IT-security, focusing on technology, hacking, and "geek" stuff

I think they all have an important role to play, and that they are needed. But for myself, I do not belong directly in any of the categories, plus I am very interested in entrepreneurship. Thus, I will try to fill this gap :)

But worry not, my readers! I will continue to dish out my opinions on global security, TSA, other bloggers and whatever else even remotely securtiy related that I feel an urge to comment upon!

On a side note, I have also established a new blog, focusing on another area I love - trainings!

Do you think this is a good move? Or am I walking into a dead end? Your thoughts are highly valued!
