* Law #3: If a bad guy has unrestricted physical access to your computer, it's not your computer anymore
* Law #4: If you allow a bad guy to upload programs to your website, it's not your website any more
* Law #5: Weak passwords trump strong security
* Law #6: A computer is only as secure as the administrator is trustworthy
* Law #7: Encrypted data is only as secure as the decryption key
* Law #8: An out of date virus scanner is only marginally better than no virus scanner at all
* Law #9: Absolute anonymity isn't practical, in real life or on the Web
