Securing Business Information addresses one of today's most critical IT challenges: keeping enterprise data secure in a widely distributed, Internet-centric environment. Drawing upon advanced research and consulting at META Group, it introduces a comprehensive, six-part process for implementing the highest practical level of information security throughout the enterprise. The authors cover every step involved in maximizing information security. Begin by preparing the enterprise for a major security initiative, identifying appropriate roles for each staff member, and effectively marketing security within the enterprise. Learn how to organize "security domains, " assess tolerable levels of risk for each, complete baseline security analyses, derive guiding policies based on what you've learned, and implement the improvements you've identified. Coverage also includes: evaluating the enforcement of existing security policies, identifying gaps, and setting priorities for remediation. Part of the Intel Press IT Best Practices Series, focused on identifying and sharing best-practice strategies for delivering Internet-based solutions that meet key business challenges. For every IT executive, manager, administrator and professional concerned with enterprise information security.
