Tulsa website

The recent troubles with the city of Tulsa's website have the attention of corporate security officers nationwide.

Bill Brenner writes for CSO magazine and CSOonline.com, a trade publication for corporate I-T secuirity professionals.

Brenner empathizes with suspended City I-T Director Tom Golliver.

Brenner says Golliver's mistake was not checking to see if an outside security firm was running a "penetration test" on the website, which, it turns out, they were.
