IT Security
Enterprise networks require system wide security options that can provide coverage to workgroups, internetworking, access, and core topologies. These features must have the flexibility to respond to new security concerns as they arise and to upgrade as new technologies become available and cost-effective. Implementing a flexible, dynamic Security Policy will save your enterprise money and protect your interests.
Network security presents an organization with a challenging dilemma. To ensure comprehensive security, an organization must address all hosts, systems, applications, and networking devices with a Security Policy that maximizes user convenience and productivity, and protects information assets, while at the same time limiting security violations. For enterprise-wide security, no single technology will meet all the requirements; in fact, intruders find it easier to penetrate a network if security deployment is limited to any single method. By deploying multiple, overlapping security methods - a systematic approach to security – the enterprise better protects its assets. Surprisingly, most enterprises might find that they don’t have to spend a lot of money to accomplish this. They just have to know what needs protection and what methods can best do the job. For that, an enterprise needs to know what it is dealing with, what its information assets are, who has access to them and which ones need more protection than others.
