As mentioned in my previous post, I have been working for a company that specializes in IT Security for enterprises. You might be asking yourself 'what is IT security'? I know I was when I began researching this company.
What I have come to understand, is that since the birth of the Internet, there are now rules and regulations that companies need to abide by. The following are examples of these Internet regulations: the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
The first problem companies encounter is called "Compliance." Companies need to comply with these rules and regulations of the cyber world. The second problem companies face is making security management an integral part of business (many put it on the back burner or think they are 'secure enough'). Finally, companies fail to maximize their security opportunities and face data breaches and other cyber incidents.
Stay Tuned!
