Key to Security

There are so many hacks happened in recent days. That to major corporate organisations key databases. During the IDC security road show, Dubai (21-06-2011) one of the presenters was showing a slide with some corporate logo, captioned as it’s not our customer list. It’s giving high alert to business and professionals. How to protect the critical information? Is there any one product to buy and keep as security? Lot of questions and fears! Where to protect, what to protect and how to protect. To whom we can trust, to whom we cannot. Security road show I saw another interesting caption don’t trust anyone. To build up a security systems, the primary factor is awareness. What is our critical information’s, who all have access now, how they access, where it’s kept, how it’s kept, etc. Once we have the awareness, start putting technology to protect each of the segments. Keep a proper discipline. It has to be reviewed frequently and improved.
