The Jericho Forum moves beyond de-perimeterization to the cloud

Saw this recent release on two new board members joining the board of the Jericho Forum and it sparked a synapse in my brain about a good panel discussion I caught during the SC World Congress in December by several Jericho Forum members.  You can watch two of the presentations delivered that day here.  Getting away from all of the rhetoric around de-perimertization and talking about securing the cloud and other topical security subjects made the Jericho folks much more relevant to me.

One of the new board members is Phillipe Courtot, CEO of Qualys.  Of course Qualys's SaaS vulnerability management solution is more of a cloud solution and not about perimeters.  For me anyway, I think this is welcome change in focus by the Jericho Forum.
