Thank You and Moving On
First, I want to sincerely thank all of the readers of the Breach Blog. I have been blessed with the opportunity to meet some very genuine and talented people during my time writing here.
Now is the time for me to move on. I am moving on to other information security related projects. I am moving on to projects that play more into my strengths as an information security practitioner and give more value to a greater number of people. The project taking up most of my time right now is the creation of a series of information security training classes and seminars. It is just one way that I think I can contribute more.
The Breach Blog will still remain active, it just won't be updated on a regular basis anymore. Sometime within the next few weeks, I will post links to one or more of my new projects in a hope that you will find me and my work there.
The Breach Blog started out 18 months ago as a place where I could jot down my thoughts about breaches. It was a place that allowed me to read about current breaches, learn from mistakes, and make comments about my thoughts. What started out small, grew over time and I was (and continue to be) glad to share. In the end, I just want to help people do a better job securing the information assets that they are responsible for.
There are many sites that do a great job of staying current with today's breaches. These sites are maintained by talented and passionate information security professionals. True patriots. Check them out at the links below.
If I forgot a site, my apologies in advance.
I still have plenty of opinions, I will just be voicing them in a different manner in a different place.
Again, a sincere thank you to everyone who read and participated. I hope to run into you all again soon!

Although I can certainly understand, I will miss your insightful commentary on breaches, Evan. Please feel free to vent/comment on my sites, as it's all I can do to just find and post breaches, much less comment on them!
I look forward to seeing your new projects.
Best,
