HIPAA and Beyond: How to Effectively Safeguard Electronic Protected Health Information
By : Lumension, Inc. Published Date: Aug 04, 2008
HIPAA lacks the depth and breadth on which to build an information security program as it takes a myopic view of security and privacy with Protected Health Information (PHI) being the center of its universe. But there is much more to information security than PHI. Healthcare organizations must look beyond HIPAA and take a global view of their infrastructure because while HIPAA is a static regulation, healthcare organizations exist in a dynamic IT world with new threats coming about daily.

Fact of Fiction: Debunking the Top 5 Misconceptions about Data Protection
By : Lumension, Inc. Published Date: Mar 26, 2008
One of the latest trends in IT security has been the shift in focus toward data-centric protection. Data is the most valuable asset an IT department must protect, and technology has evolved to meet this requirement. Encryption technology and data leakage protection solutions, which tend to rely heavily on content filtering technology, have helped shore up many organizations’ data stores, but the problem is that as companies adjust their data protection strategies they have fallen prey to a number of misconceptions about data protection.

The Extraordinary Failure of Anti-Virus Technology: Why Whitelisting Succeeds Where AV Has Failed
By : Lumension, Inc. Published Date: Oct 22, 2007
Anti-virus technology fails to prevent computers from virus infections. And because it fails, it inadvertently assists many security woes that plague the computer population. Fortunately, whitelisting technology has emerged in recent years. Whitelisting technology takes a different approach to the malware problem, recording all valid programs and preventing others from executing. Because of this approach, it can be and is used to prevent other ills, such as spyware, adware, unlicensed software or any other kind of unauthorized software. Whitelisting can be applied to device control as well, which prevents the attaching of unauthorized devices to corporate PCs and laptops.

Identity Enabled Web Services - Standards-based identity for Web 2.0
By : Ping Identity Corporation Published Date: Apr 28, 2009
Web Services are emerging as the preeminent method for program-to-program communication across corporate networks as well as the Internet. Securing web Services has been a challenge until recently, as typical Web authentication and authorization techniques employed browser-to-server architectures (not program-to-program). This resulted in user identity ending at the Web Application Server, forcing the Web Services Provider to trust blindly that the Web Services Requester had established identity and trust with the end user.

Understanding the Total Cost of Ownership for Endpoint Security Solutions.
By : Sophos Plc. Published Date: Apr 08, 2009
Organizations considering moving to an endpoint security solution often assume that the costs of switching from their current anti-virus vendor will be greater than upgrading with that vendor. This study, conducted by Hobson & Company and commissioned by Sophos, aims to uncover and quantify all the cost areas involved in migrating (upgrading or replacing) to an endpoint security product and managing the solution to gain a total cost of ownership (TCO) comparison between the leaders in the field.

Protection for Mac and Linux computers - genuine need or nice to have?
By : Sophos Plc. Published Date: Oct 20, 2008
The current risk to computers running non-Windows platforms is small but growing.

This paper investigates the real threat from non-Windows platforms. It discusses the dangers of them distributing Windows viruses, examines the implications of their growing popularity, and highlights regulatory pressure to protect them.

Assessing Endpoint Security Solutions: Why Detection Rates Aren't Enough
By : Sophos Plc. Published Date: Mar 04, 2008
The primary reason for an organization to buy an endpoint security solution is to protect its network, systems and data from malware. It is tempting, therefore, to base an assessment of potential solutions largely on malware detection rates. In reality, however, detection tests – no matter how thorough – provide only a snapshot of a security vendor’s ability to provide ongoing manageable protection. There are several other equally important criteria that should be taken into account.

Data Leakage Landscape: Where Data Leaks and How Next Generation Tools Apply
By : Utimaco Safeware Published Date: Apr 02, 2008
Like the steady drip from a leaking faucet, everyday data leaks are making headlines more often than the nefarious attack scenarios around which organizations plan most, if not all, of their data leakage prevention methods. In this paper, we map these leakage points with regulations and best practices. Protection mechanisms can be simplified by breaking them into five major categories: classic malware protections to prevent system infections, enforceable access controls, encryption, filtering for data sensitive data types being sent out of the organization, and education.
