| While the problems of hackers, terrorism, malicious
software, natural and biological disasters aren’t about to die
off anytime soon and are in fact on the rise, those aren’t really
the biggest security problems today. Rather it is that security is
not given the respect it deserves.
The unfortunate truth is that security is often seen as a tactical
move for the majority of businesses worldwide. The repercussions
are that any security actions tend to be reactive to particular
circumstances, resulting in less than secure organizations, and
millions of dollars in losses.
What organizations should be focusing on, first and foremost, is
integrating the security paradigm into their corporate cultures,
ensuring that it becomes part and parcel of running the company,
much like making money and doing business.
The 2007 edition of IDG World Expo’s Security World strives
to ensure you are equipped with the appropriate strategies—and
tactics—to tackle this problem.
