jawspeak··on What Should Be In A Top Tier MBA Entrepreneurship Class?
This is a really broad question. I wish there were more answers. Do you have any ideas you could kickstart the topic with? Company/startup simulations, labs, working with real startups.
jawspeak··on Ask HN: Does storing CC data in the session violate PCI compliance?
I've heard of companies having an internal policy: if in memory (in their data center's control) PCI sensitive data was allowed.

In some cases (memory mapped files) it could persist to disk, so either encryption, or a Compensating Control Document was created (limiting access to the filesystem).
