DLP to Forensics, The face of IT security and governance is changing

Just a few years ago, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) didn’t exist and data forensics was what lawyers used to win cases. Today DLP and forensics are now becoming common in IT security departments and some state laws are now basically mandating that DLP solutions be in use to protect corporate and personal data. The combined use of DLP tools and forensics can be a powerful weapon in the fight against data breaches and theft of intellectual property within your company if you know what technology to have and how to correctly use it.

In this presentation, learn from Jeremy Wunsch as he talks about:

• Why the combination of DLP and Forensics is important
• What really is DLP?
• What works and what doesn’t with DLP and Forensics
• What you need to think about before implementing any of these solutions

Understanding Managed File Transfer - Insights & Best Practices

As IT departments continually adopt new technologies to improve the performance of their systems, productivity of their end users and relationships with trading partners, they are faced with numerous challenges. One such challenge companies face today is securing and automating large file transfers. Traditional file transfer systems and mediums no longer meet the needs of most organizations or their trading partners, especially when data exposure is a concern. Many organizations have developed in-house solutions that are difficult to manage, lack the ability to track and audit file transfers, and expose the organization to security breaches. A Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution should be secure, easy to manage, and have the flexibility to integrate with existing technologies.

In this presentation, you will:

• Gain a better understanding of the business challenges and drivers of file transfers.
• Identify the security concerns around traditional file transfer systems and mediums.
• Learn best practices to develop security architectures for file transfers.
• Understand how a MFT solution can meet the needs of your stakeholders

10 Simple Rules for Implementing an Encryption Strategy

Organizations are becoming more and more proactive about data security, with data encryption viewed as a core element to their defensive measures.

Encryption of data is being adopted at a rapid rate to comply with industry regulations, protect intellectual property, obtain safe harbor from data breachdisclosure laws, and effectively manage risk. As encryption proliferates, IT professionals are making critical decisions that directly contribute to, or detract from, an organization's ability to effectively manage encryption keys and data security.

Data is an organization's most valuable asset and it must be protected.

Designing and implementing an encryption strategy is not complicated if you understand the needs of your organization and establish the right decision-making criteria for encryption solutions. Simplicity, breadth, manageability and efficiency are the primary requirements security-minded organizations must build into their encryption strategy. A solution that has the least complexity will make the jobs of IT professionals easier, be more cost-effective and time-efficient, while at the same time protecting data and meeting compliance standards.
