Trends are Changing IT Security Models
From internet commerce to the mobile workforce to cloud computing to social media … all of these trends are profoundly altering conventional enterprise environments and exploding established information security models. Commercial, non-profit and government organizations all require information security/assurance. Past security breaches have led to a variety of government regulations imposed on all types of enterprises, including:
- HIPPA for hospitals
- GLB for financial services
- SOX for publicly traded companies
- PCI-DSS for credit card transactions
- DIACAP for the Department of Defense
- FISMA for various federal agencies
- And many others
What’s worrying IT managers?
Despite all these regulated standards, in a 2010 survey of nearly 1,600 CIOs, COOs and senior IT and security executives worldwide*:
- 25% acknowledged an increase in internal data attacks.
- 75% of business managers admitted concern about potential reprisals from former employees.
- 60% perceived increased risk levels due to social networking, cloud computing and personal mobile devices.
Another 55 percent indicated that rising regulatory demands are accounting for moderate to significant increases in their overall IT security costs. Clearly, the challenge of establishing efficient, cost-effective IT security programs that incorporate and adapt to all of these new risks, trends and regulatory standards has never been greater.
