October 2001: This survey of over 2,500
interviewees provides a very good view of the security
landscape. Main issues identified were:
Corporate funding for infosecurity
continues to grow overall, through the pace has slowed.
PKI, wireless and Enterprise security
management will be among the hot technology markets in 2002. This
suggests secure email tools such as SecretSweeper
and Recall as
well as access management tools like SelectAccess
will become more widely deployed.
Viruses, trojans and other malware
infected 90% of the organizations surveyed, despite the fact that 88%
of those organizations have anti-virus protection in place. Email
filtering tools such as MIMEsweeper
and SecurIQ
can provide more generic protection against these kinds of threats.
The number of organizations hit by
web server attacks doubled from 2000 to 2001. Web server protection
such as Entercept
can help.
Overall, 'insider' security incidents
occur far more often then external incidents.
