①“Data is becoming an asset which needs to be guarded as much as any other asset,” says Haim Mendelson of Stanford University’s business school. ②“The ability to guard customer data is the key to market value, which the board is responsible for on behalf of shareholders”. ③Indeed, just as there is the concept of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), perhaps it is time for GASP, Generally Accepted Security Practices, suggested Eli Noam of New York’s Columbia Business School. ④“Setting the proper investment level for security, redundancy, and recovery is a management issue, not a technical one,” he says.斯坦福大学商学院的海姆•门德尔松说道:“数据正在成为一种需要像保护其他资产一样加以保护的资产。” “保护客户数据的能力是市场价值的关键,而市场价值是董事会代表股东负责的。” 纽约哥伦比亚商学院的伊莱·诺姆建议说,事实上,正如,我们已经有了美国通用会计准则这样的概念,也许,现在,是时候采取公认的安全措施了。他(伊莱·诺姆)说:“为安全、冗余和恢复设定适当的投资水平是一个管理问题,而不是技术问题。”
①“Data is becoming an asset which needs to be guarded as much as any other asset,” says Haim Mendelson of Stanford University’s business school.斯坦福大学商学院的海姆•门德尔松说道:“数据正在成为一种需要像保护其他资产一样加以保护的资产。”
这里是直接引语,所以,使用了全倒装。
asset n. 资产;资本;财产。
which部分是定语从句,修饰asset:which needs to be guarded as much as any other asset
guard vt. 保护;守卫。—— guardian n. 监护人;保护者(这也是英国卫报的名字,这个名字起得好吧,人类的守护者,信息(新闻)、真相的守护者,说得有点复杂,理解不了的,可以忽略)
②“The ability to guard customer data is the key to market value, which the board is responsible foron behalf of shareholders”. “保护客户数据的能力是市场价值的关键,而市场价值是董事会代表股东负责的。”
这一句也是上面那个人说的
market value:市场价值。
which部分是是非限定性定语从句
responsible adj. 负责的。
on部分是状语
on behalf of:代表
shareholder n. 股东(share叫做股票,holder叫做持有者,股票的持有者就是股东)
③Indeed, just as there is the concept of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), perhaps it is time for GASP, Generally Accepted Security Practices, suggested Eli Noam of New York’s Columbia Business School.纽约哥伦比亚商学院的伊莱·诺姆建议说,事实上,正如,我们已经有了美国通用会计准则这样的概念,也许,现在,是时候采取公认的安全措施了。
这里是间接引语,也用了全倒装
正常版是:Eli Noam of New York’s Columbia Business School suggested Indeed, just as there is the concept of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), perhaps it is time for GASP, Generally Accepted Security Practices
as部分是as引导的方式状语从句,just是修饰,也可以说是just as
GAAP:美国通用会计准则。
GASP:公认(通用)安全措施。
【逻辑梳理】这里是说,我们已经有了GAAP这样的东西了,现在,也应该有保护客户数据的公认保护措施。因为,数据已经变得很重要了,变成了人们的财产(资产)。
④“Setting the proper investment levelfor security, redundancy, and recovery is a management issue, not a technical one,” he says.他(伊莱·诺姆)说:“为安全、冗余和恢复设定适当的投资水平是一个管理问题,而不是技术问题。”
setting部分是分词(动名词)短语做主语
proper adj. 合适的
investment n. 投资;投入。
redundant adj. 剩余的;多余的。—— redundancy n. ①裁员;解雇;②多余;冗余;累赘。
【逻辑梳理】这两句说得比较专业,但是,目的就是要保护数据安全。这里就是说了,是管理问题,不是技术问题,不是技术达不到,而是,管理疏忽了,才会造成数据泄露。本质就是要更加注意数据保护。
