A couple of million times I have opened CNN and a forced-fed advertisement has started to play without my request. Usually this kind of forced advertiseing just pisses me off - and I rush to click the ad closed as fast as possible...

But one got through - and I had to capture it for you. I hate to play an advertisment, but this is different. The BIGGEST PROBLEM WE HAVE IN OUR BUSINESS IS THE LACK OF A NULL SET...We can't count something that didn't happen. You will never be able to write a report to your boss that discusses how many people did not get hurt at your work today.

I guess that problem exists with computer security as well. IBM is trying to tackle this problem with this ad. Listen carefully and see what you think.

Thanks for listening to the podcast. Hope you are having a great 2017. Tell your friends and subscribe - write a review as well. Thanks for listening!
