Ready for a history lesson? How about some thoughts on convergence, information sharing, relationship management or developing a strategic plan?

If you answered yes to any of those, then feel free to turn the page and read personal essays from the 2008 Security 7 Award winners. In their own words, this year's selections lay out their takes on these topics and more, drawing from years of experience in building security programs, executing important projects and meeting rigorous corporate and regulatory demands. This is the fourth year Information Security has handed out the Security 7 Awards, but the first time we've afforded our winners such a forum. Security professionals need to be heard, and you need to read what they have to say.
