Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

ADVISORY...for Wednesday (April 21)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

WHAT:     The surge in information technology offshore outsourcing,
          while designed to reap economic benefits, is resulting in
          new information security risks and threats. Whether you're
          directly involved with your own business process outsourcing
          or off-shore outsourcing initiative, or have indirect
          involvement through vendor partners, maintaining the three
          tenets of security -- Confidentiality, Integrity and
          Availability -- can prove challenging as critical business
          functions are shifted overseas.

          This 90-minute program offers practical advice on the
          critical security issues facing companies involved with
          offshore outsourcing, including:

          - Secure Application Development
          - Intellectual Property Protection
          - Information Privacy and Data Protection
          - Regulatory and 3rd Party Due Diligence
