whitepaper Security Considerations for Windows Mobile Messaging in the Enterprise2007-03-01 Microsoft
  This paper supports the IT Professional in a large enterprise corporation who has the resources and the mission to deploy a strong, controlled mobile messaging solution in his or her existing corporate network configuration. This white paper provides the IT Professional with technical information needed to understand the Windows Mobile security model from both the device and the server perspectives. With this data, he or she will know what security levels and features are available on front door and back door Windows Mobile powered devices and how Exchange ActiveSync interacts with each of them. Large corporations choose to direct the ongoing device configuration, called provisioning, that can alter the security level and other features on an already functioning device.   
whitepaper RSA & Juniper Networks: Securing Remote Access With SSL VPNs and Strong Authentication2007-03-01 RSA Security
  As organizations become more global in nature, the environment of today's worker is evolving, from one of centralization and control to one of mobility and performance. The numbers of remote and mobile workers is on the rise with the number of mobile workers in the U.S. alone reaching 103 million by 2008, and the following year the number of worldwide mobile workers reaching 878 million. With an increasing number of mobile and remote workers, a challenge for many of today's organizations is how to provide effective technology tools to maximize the productivity of remote and mobile workers while maintaining a high level of security for critical company information.

whitepaper Security Benefits From OS Virtualization: Real or Virtual?2007-01-24 NetIDSys
  Operating System (OS) virtualization allows businesses and individuals alike to use their available computer hardware resources much more efficiently and flexibly. This technology has become indispensable for many professional software developers and testers, allowing quick configuration of reference OS images that can be used in different contexts, often executing on the same computer. There are two main technological approaches to OS virtualization: standard and lightweight; lightweight further splits into containers and paravirtualization. Each approach has different architectural and run-time characteristics, hence different robustness of the isolation from the host OS.

whitepaper SMBs Can Cut IT Costs by 75% by Using Hosted IT Infrastructure Services2007-01-19 01:00:27 The Planet
  Find out why, as a small business, it no longer makes business sense to own and self-operate your IT infrastructure, including buying servers and network connectivity and staffing up to maintain them. That's because you can cut your IT costs by as much as 75% by using a "hosted IT infrastructure" provider. A hosted IT solution--leasing instead of buying--enables you to get the latest in technology without the costly maintenance and staffing requirements of an in-house approach. So you save money, eliminate administrative headaches and improve the performance and quality of IT services critical to powering your business success.

Learn the "Top 5 Reasons Why SMBs Should Adopt Hosted IT Infrastructures in 2007" and see how a hosted solution can help you stay a step ahead of your competition.
  
whitepaper The E-mail Management Crisis: New Research on the Seven Critical E-mail Management Problems0000-00-00 MessageOne
  With e-mail message stores growing at a rate of more than 30 percent per year and the sheer volume of e-mail expected to reach 120 billion messages by 2009, enterprise storage is entering a state of crisis. Most impacted by this crisis will be those organizations whose storage systems can't meet their increasingly stringent requirements for:
  • Performance
  • Security
  • Disaster recovery
  • Regulatory compliance
  • Legal discovery
Download this white paper to learn how you can tackle the problems associated with bulging e-mail stores and to find out what to consider when evaluating e-mail archiving systems.
  
whitepaper Attrition Defenses for a Peer-to-Peer Digital Preservation System2007-01-08 01:00:33 Hewlett-Packard
  In peer-to-peer systems, attrition attacks include both traditional, network-level denial of service attacks as well as application-level attacks in which malign peers conspire to waste loyal peers' resources. This paper describes several defenses for the LOCKSS peer-to-peer digital preservation system that help ensure that application level attrition attacks even from powerful adversaries are less effective than simple network-level attacks, and that network-level attacks must be intense, widespread, and prolonged to impair the system.   
whitepaper Q4 Web Security Trends Report2007-01-10 04:45:01 Finjan Software
  Finjan's Malicious Code Research Centre (MCRC) is dedicated to the research and detection of web threats. This report describes recent specific incidents of sophisticated hacker attacks that take advantage of Web 2.0 technologies to embed malicious code in high-traffic web sites as well as including "in the wild" examples of malicious code and suggestions as to how companies can protect themselves.   
whitepaper Innovations for Grid Security From Trusted Computing - Protocol Solutions to Sharing of Security Resource2007-01-07 01:00:31 Hewlett-Packard
  A central problem for Grid (or web) services is how to gain confidence that a remote principal (user or system) will behave as expected. In Grid security practice at present, issues of confidentiality and data integrity rely on weak social trust mechanisms of "Reputation maintenance": a principal who is introduced by a reputable party should hopefully behave in "Best effort" to maintain the reputation of the introducer. As will be discussed in this paper, this gentleman's notion of trust is insufficient for a large class of problems in Grid services. The TC initiative developed by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) takes a distributed-system-wide approach to the provisions of integrity protection for systems, resources and services.

whitepaper Penetration Testing: Taking the Guess Work out of Vulnerability Management2007-01-20 01:00:25 Core Security
  It is no longer good enough to simply identify potential problems on the network and systems. Security professionals must now know the real risks and implications of vulnerabilities and regularly test the effectiveness of network defenses. This white paper from IDC demonstrates how penetration testing software efficiently and easily helps address these challenges.

Download this IDC Executive Brief and see why penetration testing is necessary for organizations to:
  • Understand the actual risk to the business posed by specific vulnerabilities
  • Test the security of the network
  • Determine if current security investments are actually detecting and preventing attacks
