This year has provided us with every type of security drama possible from major insider breaches such as WikiLeaks and the UBS insider, to the Norwegian Army data breach, the Sony hack and the demise of DigiNotar. It has truly been a game of two halves - the first half manic and dramatic, the second half steady but still tension-filled with its unfolding stream of incidents.
It was the Year of the Third-party Trust Compromise, and the Year of the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Mobile Revolution. Both of these will have their parts to play in 2012.
