Enterprises Don’t Know Sensitive Data Flow
I’ve recently taken an interest in a site called Dark Reading. It’s a security news site that reports on just about everything security and privacy related.
Today I found a very good article that talks about a survey being released on how enterprises don’t know where their data is or even how to classify it. This has been one of my pet peeves for some time now. It’s a good read and will hopefully kick start some people’s brains and get a move on in this area. I never understood how an organization can enforce security when it doesn’t even know what it needs to protect.
Here is an excerpt from the article:
“Most enterprises still don’t know where their sensitive data resides, and less than half of those that do know are actually enforcing its protection, according to new research to be released next month by The 451 Group.”
Cheers!
