Computacenter launches report on strengthening IT and data security of a business

Computacenter has recently published a report on strengthening the IT and data security of a business. The report, titled ‘Close the Security Gap with a Unified Approach’, runs through how organisations can better their business security via 10 attainable steps.
 
The 2013 Information Security Breaches Survey, by PWC and Infosecurity Europe, states that 84 percent of large organisations suffered staff-related security incidents. More and more organisations - and sensitive data - are falling through the cracks in the traditional siloed approach to security.
 
As the threat landscape continues to evolve and expand, greater visibility of the security position of an organisation will become a critical success factor.
 
Without properly knowing the nature or number of their enemies, IT departments are at a huge disadvantage. Sadly, this disadvantage will only increase if organisations fail to take on board preventative measures.
 
It’s easier for IT departments to close the security gap by using integrated tools and automated processes. Businesses will have a better chance of avoiding the financial penalties and reputational damage that invariably come with security breaches.
 
Computacenter has developed a range of assessments that help organisations define and deliver a multi-layered information security framework.

Computacenter manages thousands of devices and events every month for its customers, which gives the company a unique insight into emerging and evolving security risks. To find out more, visit http://www.computacenter.com/security
