Security Management Program Development and Support
“Knowledge is power”, goes
the old adage; Today, knowledge is information, and information is business. From supply chain to sales,
never before has information been so much at the heart of enterprises' strategy
and one of their most essential assets.
Paradoxically, never has it been more at risk. For,
in the e-economy, success means openness. Corporations must deploy mobile
workforces to increase productivity and flexibility. Sharing enterprise data with
business partners is a must to improve competitiveness. Being able to deliver
electronic services and support to customers is a necessity.
Each of these new links may be an open invitation to
attacks and intrusions, adding the new threats of spying, data destruction, or
denial of service to the ever-present risks of internal malpractice.
Competitors can steal confidential information sent unprotected over the
Internet. Internet connections to enterprise networks open the door to hackers
to disrupt operations or steal information. Mobile user connections can be
spied; passwords can be stolen.
According
to WarRoom Research, 60% of Fortune 1000 companies reported attacks recently,
with half losing more than $500,000. IDC estimates the total cost of attacks is
currently over $16 billion annually, equivalent to the entire earnings of a
large multinational! More importantly,
beyond accounted losses, heavy customer losses, worsened image and fallen stock
value often result from security break-ins, as many cases dramatically
demonstrated during the last few years and months.
