Enhanced Security & Risk Management

According to ARN report by Julia Talevski, with the current "bumpy economic ride, many organisations are looking at how to get more out of the IT equipment they have, and what investments can bring about serious cash savings. Virtualisation has become an integral part of the solution, but it comes with a fresh set of challenges around security."
 
"Securing virtual environments, whether it be at the desktop, server, network, application or storage level, is a crucial component to any virtual strategy. With the security threat landscape constantly evolving, putting all company resources into a centralised virtual environment without a comprehensive security game plan is a gamble no organisation should willingly take"

Innovative approaches include the use of Nueral Networks to learn from and process large volumes of security data and report on possible exceptions. Typical solutions would include matching HR data with other business and systems data to build an enterprise wide security profile and report on security risks. Security incidents can be further analysed using advanced statistical techniques to predict possible targeting of systems.
