What are the odds?
\n1 in 6 of laptop or PDA stolen
\n4 in 5 data files stored unencrypted
\n2 in 3 data files transferred unencrypted
\n1 in 2 limits users ability to install whatever they please, irrespective
\nof risks<\/p>\n
1 in 5 suffered data or network sabotage
\n1 in 4 not know if computers have been illegally accessed
\n2 in 5 not keep log of computer security incidents
\n9 in 10 suffered a computer security incident during the past year
\nALL enterprises have some software installed on desk tops that computer
\nstaff not know are there, and would not approve of if they did know<\/p>\n
Other common problems
\n* Systems for security, that are so complicated that no one uses them, are
\n as bad as having no security at all,
\n* Computer systems functionality depends on various configuration files …
\n who has access to them?
\n* Security needs to be documented, otherwise investigators will assume you
\n did not do it
\n* Employees bring unsecure home systems to the office, plug them into
\n corporate systems and guess what? now the corporate systems are
\n unsecure. Example, some employee at a financial institution had a lap top
\n from home with the wireless port wide open, plugs it into the system at
\n work, which is now wide open over the wireless port
\n* Each new technology has new security weaknesses unknown to people
\n installing them
\n* Executives consider corporate security rules do not apply to them, they
\n are free to break any of them
\n* People think the laptop breach laws do not apply to other portable
\n devices that can carry corporate data … they are wrong
\n* Data is backed up, but can it also be restored in a crisis … there
\n should be periodic checks that backups are getting everything they ought to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
