Ever
mindful of hardware and software security threats to companies stemming from
advances in technology and new mobile devices, Sage Software recently published
an insightful, one-page Whitepaper, in order to raise awareness about the top
five security concerns to which all business should pay attention, and to
provide solutions to address and preempt potential security breaches.
According
to the annual report, cited by Sage Software and issued by the premier global
source of information security training and certification - the Bethesda,
Maryland-based SANS Institute - due to the rapid evolution, increasing
affordability, and proliferation of cutting-edge devices, such as smartphones,
tablets, and netbooks, a growing number of companies have opted to utilize such
gadgets to increase efficiency and productivity. A company's adoption and
management of such devices, however, raises valid concerns with respect to the
maintenance of a secure internal network infrastructure.
According
to the Whitepaper, the top security concerns for companies stem from:
· - The inability to control authorized and
unauthorized devices.
· - The inability to maintain authorized and
unauthorized software.
· - Insecure configurations for hardware and
software on mobile devices, laptops, and servers.
· - Code or configuration vulnerabilities.
· - Malware breaches.
