However, price is only one part of the equation, and it can be difficult to choose between hosted security providers .This buyer's guide will help you pick the right vendor and services for your needs. 		 sponsored by

whitepaper How to share sensitive documents and maintain control over them2009-09-02 Confidela
  Businesses need to share important or sensitive documents on a daily basis, whether it's quotes or RFP responses sent to customers, intellectual property or specs shared with contractors, or financial information shared in the context of an M&A transaction (e.g. Deal Room). But once recipients receive the documents, you lose all control and those recipients can copy, print or forward them without your knowledge. Technologies such as enterprise DRM and email encryption are too cumbersome, expensive and not appropriate for external sharing of information. This paper discusses how you can mitigate these risks simply and effectively.

whitepaper The "Outside-In" Confidential Data Security Mode2009-08-13 Trend Micro
  Confidential data resides everywhere—from locked-down data centers to mobile devices—and is increasingly accessed by a wide range of constituents—from employees to contractors and business partners. How can CIOs and CISOs possibly secure confidential data when it is in a constant state of motion? The ESG "Outside-In" data security model seeks to put confidential data security in context by anchoring data security to risk metrics, categorizing risk zones, and recommending security controls. When properly and consistently applied, ESG believes that the "Outside-In" security model can help organizations improve confidential data security while making this data more productive for global network-based business processes.

whitepaper Security Compliance in a Virtual World: Best Practices to Build a Solid Foundation2009-08-01 RSA Security
  Over time, IT and security teams and external auditors will increase their knowledge and competencies in virtualization. IT and security teams should work closely with each other and their internal and external auditors in the design and implementation of virtual systems and educate them about the specific risk management methods and security procedures being used. As skills are mastered, organizations will be able to virtualize systems, and auditors will assess those systems with increased confidence. The benefits of virtualization are transforming how IT enables business. Capabilities provided by virtualization software providers and the security industry in general are enabling organizations to accelerate the adoption of virtualization without compromising security objectives or compliance.

whitepaper Achieving compliance with GSi Code Of Connection (CoCo)2009-07-23 Lumension
  In November 2005, The Government published 'Transformational Government - Enabled by Technology' which documents the steps necessary to achieve effective delivery of technology for Government. To develop the necessary trust and confidence within the Public Sector communities and between Government and the citizens, a common approach to risk management and the implementation of an Information Assurance framework becomes increasingly important . The aim of the Code of Connection (CoCo) is to develop the trust required both within and between communities, which then allows more effective use of shared systems and services. The CoCo provides a minimum set of security standards that organisations must adhere to when joining the GSi. This paper addresses some of the key challenges of achieving and maintaining compliance with the GSi Code of Connection (CoCo) for the GCSX.

whitepaper Security Reference Guide2009-07-22 CDW
  For better or worse, the security field changes rapidly. It differs from mainstream IT work in that predicting the next challenge proves quite difficult. Threats appear to come out of nowhere, and incidents seem to strike at random. On the other hand, like all areas of IT, security as a discipline constantly builds on itself, rarely taking a step backward. In particular, over the last year we've seen attacks used in new and complex combinations, growing sophistication in online criminal activities, and an escalation of the ongoing arms race between the developers of malicious software and the creators of defensive tools.

These developments have either overwhelmed some traditional security measures or made them irrelevant. As a result, organizations have had to change their tactics in order to cope.
