Is your SAN or NAS an Achilles heel?

IT security has long been the focus of corporate attention, while storage security has been — perhaps unnoticeably — absent from the limelight. So it perhaps comes as a surprise to find that the data held in storage environments is frequently left vulnerable, simply because security in this area is so often overlooked.

Why is your network firewall falling short?

Why is your network firewall falling short?

Your network is secure, your servers are safe, and you’ve done everything to protect your network, corporate assets and intellectual property. You have a network firewall, so your perimeter is secure. Your network devices and servers are only accessible through your corporate VPN via two-factor authentication, and all external ports are blocked to non-authenticated traffic.

Wireless security is broken and it doesn’t matter.

Wireless security is broken and it doesn’t matter.

It’s hard to pick up an industry magazine or a newspaper without finding an article about the latest security flaw in one of the wireless protocols. Companies are scrambling to fix the problem by throwing money and resources at new standards and products. Organizations everywhere are wasting financial resources on technologies that prevent their users from taking advantage of wireless networks because of perceived security reasons.

I recently attended the graduation of the latest class of Norwich University's Master of Science in Information Assurance program. It was one of the high points of my lengthy career. In the spirit of full disclosure, I've been teaching in this program, for mid-career adults, since its inception. This was the second graduation in the 18-month program.
