      <title>A very sketchy view of asset management problem from the InfoSec perspective</title>
      <description>Here are slides from my UISGCON14 talk in Kyiv -- it was on "fast track" so I had just 20 minutes, so it is not as detailed as I wish it to be. 

However, the central topic is obvious: if you do asset management for infosec purposes, you are mostly on your own. ITSM-originated asset management focuses on service availability and expenses (and downtime costs); so-called Software Asset Management is a fancy word for keeping count of your licenses, and CMDBs simply cannot work as intended at scale.</description>
