Securing Data at the Endpoint: Four Steps to Protect Your Enterprise from Data Leakage
Can your organisation really afford to take chances when it comes to data security? Recent instances of data thefts and spyware infiltrations have forced enterprises to analyse potential holes in existing security nets for data leakage. The most significant security breaches come from insiders - both from malicious and seemingly benign activities. Merely browsing the Internet can potentially expose your computer - and your data - to spyware and keyloggers, which can execute on your machine without your knowledge. And now, with a barrage of new, portable storage technologies, it's never been easier for information to escape onto an iPod ®, storage device, digital camera or CD-R. So easy in fact, that the term Pod-slurping has become mainstream. Safeguarding an organisation's most valuable assets - its data - starts at the endpoint, and enterprises must manage which devices and applications are allowed entry.
