Intrusion Detection Systems White Papers
Platforms & Infrastructure: Protect Guards Laptop and Desktop Data
Overview Although businesses are typically focused on protecting sensitive data traveling outside their networks over the wires, the data on an employee's hard disk may be equally vulnerable to theft. It's arguably easier and quicker to pilfer gigabytes of your company's data from a lost or stolen computer or by unauthorized access to an office desktop.Those who believe they will avoid this kind of data theft by using Windows login/password protection underestimate how easily this type of security measure can be compromised using a bootable floppy and commercial utilities available on the Internet. Once a thief has defeated your password protection, it is easy to circumvent Windows NT file system permissions and use undelete programs to recover data previously deleted from your disk.
