Information Security

In recent months, the security of information has become a watchword—not just for IT, but for the executive suite as well. Risks once seen as intangible and difficult to control have become top security management priorities, as lost, stolen and abused information has led to highly tangible losses to the enterprise. For IT, the mandate has become clear: the enterprise needs to do more to manage the security of information itself.
