whitepaper Identity and Security Management and Strong Information Technology Governance: Novell's Solution Suite Automates the Approach to the Perfect Union2008-02-01 IDG (International Data Group)
  This IDC White Paper examines Novell's identity and security management (ISM) solutions and how these integrated offerings can play a key role in enforcing security compliance for enterprise organizations. When properly implemented and deployed, these solutions help companies to avoid violations of government and industry regulations, to avoid the leakage of intellectual property and to drive down the cost of compliance through integration, consolidation, and automation Strong security and governance programs should be symbiotic in nature. A total Identity and Access Management (IAM) driven Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solution should ensure foolproof and accurate measurements of policies and practices across the enterprise.   
whitepaper Nortel Secure Network Access and Microsoft Network Access Protection Integration2008-01-31 Nortel Networks
  With the ever-increasing need for enterprises to provide endpoint security and policy compliance, Network Access Control (NAC) solutions abound. However, confusion around industry standards, the multitude of NAC vendors and the complexity of the solutions has led to a relatively slow industry-wide NAC adoption rate. In order to increase flexibility, simplicity and comprehensive cross-platform device support, Nortel has worked with Microsoft to provide a joint NAC solution.   
whitepaper Protection for Every Endpoint2008-01-28 Symantec
  Given today's increasingly volatile threat landscape, organizations know they need to take a more holistic approach to protecting their endpoints. Generally this has meant applying security technologies to their laptops, desktops, and servers. But today's workforce is increasingly mobile, and that means more and more workers are using a wide range of mobile devices to access corporate data over insecure public and home networks. From an endpoint security perspective, this development has profound implications. As mobile technologies mature and grow increasingly sophisticated, organizations would do well to ask themselves a simple question: are today's smartphones being used more as a phone or a computer?

whitepaper A Security Strategy for Manufacturing Operations2008-01-09 Microsoft
  By connecting manufacturing and enterprise networks, companies have helped employees become more productive, resulting in streamlined operations and more effective business. But with this new connectivity comes additional risk from cyber attacks from both internal and external sources. Manufacturers must protect their systems from attacks that can negatively affect production and plant safety, and put proprietary information at risk. To mitigate the risks inherent in connecting manufacturing and external networks, companies must implement a defense-in-depth strategy to prevent their manufacturing systems from being compromised. This white paper focuses on technologies such as the Microsoft Forefront family of business security products, along with various other current technologies. It also introduces virtualization as a potential solution that secures applications in the manufacturing operations area.   
whitepaper Handling Encrypted Email at the Gateway of a Network2008-01-01 UNC Charlotte
  Protection for email is provided by client side encryption from being read or hacked. But the security risk in this protection is that it also protects virus from being sensed by the anti virus software. It also hides the hacker's destructive payload. The encrypted message can't be examined by any anti virus software rather filtered by content specific filtering engine. In case of providing perimeter defense for email virus, the network administrator faces the problem of disclosing the email or denies sending the email. If the email is allowed then network is not secure, if the message is disclosed then the message privacy is not maintained.

whitepaper Efficient Signature Schemes Supporting Redaction, Pseudonymization, and Data Deidentification2007-12-14 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  This paper gives a new signature algorithm that allows for controlled changes to the signed data. The change operations studied is removal of subdocuments (redaction), pseudonymization, and gradual deidentification of hierarchically structured data. These operations are applicable in a number of practically relevant application scenarios, including the release of previously classified government documents, privacy-aware management of audit-log data, and the release of tables of health records.

whitepaper The Insecurity of Test Data: The Unseen Crisis2007-12-01 Ponemon Institute
  When a large Midwestern US insurance company hired an outside expert from a respected technology consulting firm to develop business application software, it didn't think that it was turning test data over to an identity thief. In the course of completing a software project, the technology consultant attempted to sell over 111,000 individuals' social security numbers and related information to an undercover United States Secret Service agent. Following his arrest in June 2006, the consultant admitted that he sold the information for approximately 70 of the insurance company's customers to another individual.
