security management

Overview Conducting business online offers enormous benefits to an enterprise. Unfortunately, these benefits continue to be challenged by an escalating variety of complex security threats that all too often result in the theft of account information and identities, misappropriated intellectual property, regulatory fines and a resulting loss of business reputation. Consumers have become painfully aware of online fraud through news reports as well as through an increasing occurrence of 1st hand experiences. Online threats have grown beyond simple phishing schemes to significant, organized attacks posed by spyware, credential-stealing Trojans, browser hijacking, keystroke logging and remote administration tools, just to name a few.
