Security Expert changes jobs.

News of Bruce Schneier’s departure from BT was leaked publicly last month. The famed security expert will now be taking on the position of CTO of Co3 Systems, an incident response management startup. Schneier says that the timing was right for him to move from the large company scene to the excitement of a startup.

Co3 provides a software platform aimed at automating incident response. The software assigns tasks, logs, tracks, and monitors attack response elements, replacing the tedium and error-prone methods of manual spreadsheet tracking.

“It’s taking manual incident response and automating and documenting it. We don’t change how incident response happens; we make sure it happens according to the way it’s supposed to,” Schneier said in an interview with Dark Reading.
