Automation To Achieve Better ROI On IT Governance, Risk And Compliance Solutions
8:54 AM EDT Mon. Oct. 15, 2007
Data security is a huge concern for companies of all sizes as malicious attacks and security breaches occur on a daily basis. Sensitive data such as credit card information, personal account information, user accounts, identity information and proprietary information are just a few of the things companies must protect. Businesses today must concern themselves with both internal and external threats.
A direct result of security being compromised in the business sector has brought on many compliance, governance and regulatory mandates. Many of these mandates hit many of the verticals we focus on today, such as Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA), ISO 17799, Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Companies are spending hundreds of millions of dollars trying to protect themselves and their customers' data. Security remains the top predicted spend for companies of all sizes, and so the opportunities for VAR have to provide products and services continue to rise. Business partners that find the right tools and partnerships will find they have a significant advantage in this ever increasing marketplace.
