Security and Compliance Solutions for Today's Enterprise


In a recent industry survey of over 400 IT professionals, one of the top three IT priorities for 2011 is security and compliance. However, security is a broad term so we're sharing with you three of the hottest security issues that we encounter as we develop and manage security solutions for many of our customers like GAB Robins, CTS Corporation, COTY, Blue Cross Horizon, IBM and many more.

Today, a world of threats are ready to impact your business at any time.
That's why Virtela offers everything you need to create a

Key Security and Compliance Issues

We've put together a comprehensive security podcast and FAQ series designed to help you solve key security and compliance problems. For each of the top security issues, Ted Ritter, Senior Research Analyst from Nemertes Research discusses the key Nemertes_Logo_smalltrends, major issues to overcome and potential solutions to the problems via podcast.

We've also compiled some of the most commonly asked how-to security questions to address specific business, application and implementation issues. And we've offered guidance, alternatives to consider, best practices and case studies to answer those questions.

Some of the hottest security issues today are as follows:

  • Extending Defense-in-Depth into the Cloud. As more companies use public clouds for storage and compute such as Amazon EC2, Rackspace Cloud and IBM Cloudburst, IT managers want to know if and how to ensure secure access to and from these public clouds, in addition to beefing up the security with stateful features such as (Intrusion Prevention System) IPS, anti-malware, web filtering and more within their own IT infrastructure. Take a closer look at the topic with our Cloud Security Guide.
  • Implementing Best Practices to Achieve Compliance and Defend Against Advanced Persistent Threats. What would it take to meet compliance and new regulations? Is log management enough? What should be logged? Will the log catch newer and more sophisticated threats like APTs? Can you and how do you act upon what you're able to log and track? The questions go on and on when it comes to compliance and APTs because they're evolving quickly, giving IT managers little time to put a robust plan in place. Learn more in our Best Practices Guide.
  • Securing and Managing the Mobile Workforce, Including Employee-Owned Device. Companies globalizing their businesses or supporting a highly mobile workforce face the challenge of making these mobile users just as secure and productive as those employees at the main offices. Furthermore, with the rampant adoption of smartphones and iPads, including those owned by the employees, and more users using them for business purposes, IT managers wonder how they can secure and manage these devices just as they do corporate laptops and desktops. Learn how to secure your mobile users.
