You don’t get an A for effort

During my senior year of high school, I enrolled in a popular computer science class. Our teacher was particularly lazy and he pretty much outsourced his lesson plans to his students, which meant everyone had to give a couple of presentations to the class each month. Most of these presentations were pretty boring, but I can still remember a certain seminar about computer security delivered by a major slacker.
Instead of discussing usual nerdy security topics like firewalls, data encryption, anti-virus protection, cryptography, authentication techniques, hacking, and access control, this scholar unintentionally put his own spin on the topic. He suggested that the best way to protect your data was to get a guard dog to hang out in your computer room or office and maul any would-be thieves. He also extolled the virtues of setting up electric fences, laser alarms, deadbolts, and using pepper spray to protect your data, in case you are allergic to pit bulls!
I’m not sure how the guy spoke for thirty minutes with a straight face, but the truth is you don’t want to slack when it comes to security. With the launch of CEREUS, we’re ramping up poker security even further.
We’ve engineered our new state of the art security center to protect our players and ourselves. Our new cutting edge system is fully automated and will detect and eliminate bots, collusion, chip dumping, and other kinds of fraud. Scammers will quickly discover that trying to foil our online poker software is fruitless.
We take pride in providing a fair and honest poker room, but we’re not afraid to ask for help. Give us a shout if you ever see anything suspicious and remember that we always welcome your thoughts, concerns, and feedback about security topics (and pretty much anything else). By the way, all it takes is a few juicy steaks to fend off a pit bull.
