Dictated in part by legislative and regulatory norms, an increasing number of organizations wish to manage and assign all access privileges across the network in a structured way. This is possible through the use of RBAC software. So how can companies achieve an adequate implementation of RBAC across their entire organization?

However, most of today’s DoS attacks target layer 7 (L7) by overwhelming applications with seemingly valid requests and Brute Force programs can send more than one million attempts per second. This paper will discuss how to intelligently mitigate these types of attacks.

With no direct control of the endpoints, IT departments have generally had to prohibit this or risk insecure access inside the firewall. But as more mobile devices appear on the corporate network, mobile device management has become a key IT initiative.

It’s time to rethink how we protect our endpoints. Instead of trying to build a better anti-virus “mousetrap,” without any shift in the underlying management model for vetting change in endpoint environments, security professionals should investigate more innovative approaches to endpoint security that can automate trusted change policies.

But as computer criminals refine their techniques, so must the detection methods evolve. To enable this, modern-day IT departments need to employ techniques and tools previously only available to forensic investigators within the law enforcement community. Thankfully, those tools are becoming available outside of the justice environment, and are proving highly effective in solving cases that would otherwise have remained impossible to close. Mon, 08 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT http://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/download/567/ http://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/download/583/ IT departments are facing three big issues when it comes to protecting the data created and stored on the systems they manage. First, the value of the data is often only realised when it is legitimately shared in some way; second, that sharing is increasingly taking place across public networks and third, the users doing the sharing are doing so on a growing diversity of devices in locations that are convenient to them.

But the world is changing. Experts agree that username/password authentication does not provide enough protection against unauthorized access. CIOs are challenged to increase authentication security while preserving operational and budget efficiency. Organisations need stronger forms of authentication that are easy to use and less costly to purchase, deploy and maintain than traditional “one-size-fits-all” options.

Unfortunately, many companies lack a cohesive strategy for assimilating, managing, and protecting that data. New regulatory requirements are often placed upon businesses with stiff penalties for noncompliance, with equally demanding deliverable dates.

Cloud resources can be provisioned on-the-fly to support specific project needs, or they can be leveraged on a longer-term basis to add capability to an existing IT infrastructure. For some companies, cloud resources even serve as the entire IT infrastructure because of the ease and speed of deployment and cost-effectiveness compared to deploying an in-house infrastructure.
