For those of us working in the realm of security, Bruce Schneier is certainly one of the icons of the field. So when the news goes out that British Telecom has acquired his company, Counterpane Internet Security, it definitely gets one's attention. His blog entry indicates this is something he's been working on for a year, so congrats to Bruce and his team for finally having it happen. (And I agree, to a security guy, the comment Bruce points out is quite funny.)

BTW, if you are at all concerned or interested in security issues in general, Bruce's weblog should definitely be among your feed list. He covers a wide range of topics and it's quite valuable to read.
