Research and Markets: Security Advisory Service Aims to Help Organisations Reduce Overall Enterprise Risk Exposure and Vulnerability Exploitation.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com) has announced the addition of Enterprise Threat Alert - Security Advisory Service to their offering

We live in extremely challenging times. A heightened sense of urgency exists today because of the events and conditions--both individuals and groups--that threaten the enterprise. These conditions are widespread and diversified in nature and scope. Internal, as well as external, threats are a constant threat to the safety, security, and the line of defences that have been established to protect corporate assets. Although many threats arise from conditions that are intentionally created, many come about unintentionally. Combined, these conditions pose both immediate and strategic risk. Identity theft and "phishing Pronounced "fishing," it is a scam to steal valuable information such as credit card and social security numbers, user IDs and passwords. Also known as "brand spoofing," an official-looking e-mail is sent to potential victims pretending to be from their ISP, bank or retail establishment.

Legal and financial liabilities, and damage to the corporate reputation, are the adverse legacies of the emerging global threat conditions that plague today's enterprise. The aim of this security advisory service is to protect executive management against these pressures.

This service provides clients with bi-weekly, five- to six-page risk briefs concerning current enterprise threats and the specific actions that will reduce potential liabilities and promote corporate integrity and confidentiality. Each bi-weekly report of the Enterprise Threat Alert research service is based upon a continuing review of the security and legal analysis of global operational risk conditions that threaten the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of enterprise systems.
