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

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.
