Data Privacy Is The New Strategic Priority

As firms face a growing list of data protection regulations and customers become more knowledgeable about their privacy rights, developing a data privacy competence has never been more important. Sustained compliance delivers a number of benefits, but firms with reactive and siloed privacy tactics will fail to capitalize on them.

Forrester Consulting evaluates the state of enterprises’ data privacy compliance in a shifting regulatory landscape by surveying global enterprise decision makers with responsibility over privacy or data protection. This report analyzes how they are evolving to meet the heightened data protection and privacy expectations of legislators and consumers, along with the benefits they can expect from a holistic data privacy approach.

Adopting a Next Generation Data Security Strategy

This white paper highlights how organizations can adopt a next generation data security strategy that bridges security technologies deployed across heterogeneous and highly distributed environments. Organizations are lacking a centralized view of their data security risk posture, compounded by the complexity of managing security across distributed environments. This lack of visibility results in an ineffective way of prioritizing alerts and assessing the business impact of lost or stolen data assets. Taking a holistic approach affords organizations a comprehensive view of existing security risks to sensitive data.

Turning Data into a Game Changer for Your Organization

Data can be a business’ most valuable resource—but data is also valuable to cybercriminals. Whether they want to lock an organization’s data to demand a ransom or exfiltrate it to sell on the dark web, cybercriminals have options for making money off this precious resource.

While data carries risks for an organization, it also presents major opportunities for cybersecurity professionals to demonstrate their significance.
This eBook looks at some of the high-level elements you should think about when protecting your data— and it discusses how to use data-protection activities to help advance your team’s credibility within your organization.

Zero Trust Security: Getting to “Zero” Requires a Secure Foundation

It’s safe to say today that cybercrime is as robust and evolving a tech industry as its IT security equivalents. Attacks are more frequent, more sophisticated, and more successful, requiring organizations today to shift security strategies to more secure models.

Zero Trust security is an IT security model that takes a holistic approach to network security using several different principles and technologies. In this paper, we’ll focus on why you need to first focus on foundational security, what’s entailed, and how the monitoring of events and the management of permissions—as tactical as they sound—are critical to properly underpin a strong and effective Zero Trust security model.

Case Study: RIGA Airport

RIGA Airport is one the busiest and fastest growing international airports in the Baltics. In order to allow their people and teams to effectively connect and collaborate amidst multiplying data, they deployed Microsoft® SharePoint®, which created barriers to team productivity and general data security.

The airport's biggest challenge was missing an overview of access rights and not being able to track changes to permissions as they occurred. They were looking for a solution to eliminate data security threats and improve overall governance by preventing unwarranted access rights from increasing.

With SolarWinds® Access Rights Manager (ARM), the principal solution developed by SolarWinds, RIGA Airport was able to limit access rights to a need-to- know basis, thereby helping reduce data security risks, as well as help ensure accountability and compliance with internal policies by knowing who accessed which files.

Overcome Cloud Security Challenges Today

According to Gartner, “Through 2022, at least 95% of cloud security failures will be the customer’s fault.”

The most significant step an organization can take to ensure appropriate levels of cloud security is for the corporate leadership to agree that cloud computing has become indispensable, and that it should be governed through planning and policy.

Access the report to learn how to overcome the below challenges:

  • Delaying cloud migrations due to an exaggerated fear of the security of cloud providers resulting in loss opportunity and inappropriate spending
  • A strategic cloud strategy is lagging behind cloud usage, leaving a hole in governance leading to unnecessary compliance incidents and data leakage
  • A lack of skills and resources for cloud use cases

Pause for this 16 minute read to avoid cloud security failures.

Advanced APIs – How to Optimize Security, Maximize Resources, and Push Innovation

The traditional way of applying security countermeasures has always entailed shoring up infrastructure at one location or another and hoping that attackers will be frustrated or scared off.

To combat rising cyberthreats, you need the ability to safeguard users, applications, and infrastructure across your expanding network, end-to-end and top-to-bottom. But, managing the complexity and volume of disparate solutions that do not smoothly integrate becomes a time consuming and error-prone task, as threats across your network grow and may remain undetected. Homegrown security deployments tend to slow down business operations and negatively impact productivity. Today’s enterprise hybrid networks require an agile approach network security policy management solution.

Join cybersecurity experts Tim Woods, Vice President of Technology Alliances at FireMon and Holger Schulze, CEO and Founder of Cybersecurity Insiders, to explore:

  • How an open platform closes security gaps
  • How to achieve 80% reduction in firewall and cloud security group misconfigurations
  • How an agile approach to Network Security Policy Management enables shared intelligence and automation
