What will be the next generation of security tools?

I was reading a interesting discussion on Linked-In days ago about security technologies tendencies and I became happy to read about some very interesting solutions/technologies that I never heard about it and some others I'm more familiar but with a new approach.

I will spend some time in the near future to study more some of them and blog the results here but my objective now is to promote a health discussion.

On the opinion of the ISC2 folks, what will be the next generation of security solutions? And by "next generation" I mean a technology that will evolve or be invented.

My opinion to start it:

- Application White-list;
- More sophisticated financial/regulatory fraud detection tools;
- Data Encryption 

Happy 2010 for all

Unix file, folder permissions, security auditing tools.

I want to periodically check if ASCII password/config files on Unix have 400 or 600 access. Folders and files are owned by designated group and user. Folders and Files do not have world write access. Are there any tools/scripts available for this kind of auditing that I can use on Solaris? (7 Replies)
