Seminole, FL (PRWEB) February 24, 2005 -- In an upset victory, The Security
Awareness Blog for Ma, Pa and the Corporate Clueless received the most online
votes in both categories it was nominated for in the 2005 Business Blogging
Awards.
In the Best Tech Company category, The
Security Awareness Blog competed against two popular Microsoft employee bloggers
and an Apple employee blogger. In Best Overall, Security Awareness topped five
well established blogs by experts in the emerging industry of business
blogging.
“Our strategy has been simple since the
beginning, offer our readers great and useful content on the blog,” said Winn
Schwartau, president of The Security Awareness Company, which maintains the
blog. “When we asked for their support, they responded in overwhelming
numbers.”
The voting took place at www.businessbloggingawards.com, sponsored by blog consultants
www.Insideblogging.com. After a small hiccup with the original
voting software, organizers found a secure solution where voters could only vote
once, based on IP address.
This is the first ever
awards of its kind as business blogs became more popular in 2004. The Security
Awareness blog was created in June of 2004 as a new tool for Winn Schwartau’s
Security Awareness Company (Interpact Inc.) to communicate with its audience.
Blog regulars find up-to-date computer security information and tips from The
Security Awareness Company team and commentaries from other top experts in the
Information Security Industry. The eight-month-old blog can be found at: http://securityawareness.blogspot.com
“It’s great that we’ve been recognized as one of the best business blogs.
That means we really are creating a “security aware” culture of computer users,”
Schwartau added. “It’s the people, not just the technology that will limit
computer security threats in the future.”
The Security
Awareness blog has an Atom formatted XML site feed for syndication and news
readers, along with other standard RSS feeds. The blog also has a convenient
email update for opt-in subscribers, which is normally sent twice a week,
Schwartau added.
