Description: In today’s complex regulatory environment, organizations are increasingly exposed to threats to the information in their mission-critical inward- and outward-bound communication channels. These threats exploit a diversity of technical vulnerabilities in IT systems, as well the behavioral characteristics of employees. Regulatory and commercial penalties for failing to secure these channels can be severe and value-destroying; regulatory guidance on compliance requirements is, however, still very limited. The solution is to adopt a best-practice approach, such as that set out in the internationally recognized information security standard ISO/IEC 17799:2005. This standard provides completely independent structured guidance for a risk-based approach to securing the onfidentiality,
availability and integrity of corporate information. A best-practice information security framework will support the coordination of compliance strategy across multiple channels and guide control responses to multiple threats to all sorts of information assets. The products that make up SurfControl’s Enterprise Protection Suite (EPS) meet this best-practice guidance and will help organizations secure broad and ongoing compliance with the regulatory requirements to preserve the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.
