Business Security Information

I was planning on writing about endpoint security near the end of last month, but with the holidays and numerous other business and personal activities occurring at the end of the year I had to take a little sabbatical from writing posts for our website.  It is good to be back into the swing of things again, and I hope everyone has a great and successful year with their business.  As always I will be here to help you with any security issues that you may have for your business so feel free to leave comments or contact me using my contact form on my About page.

In a recent article on PCI , I discussed the need to know what sensitive information your are storing or have on your systems.  How, then, do you discover or determine what sensitive information is on your computers and other endpoint devices?  An endpoint device is basically the starting point or final destination of all information or data going over a network.    They include, but are not limited to, laptops, personal computers, servers, network appliances, network-attached storage, or any other type of device that can connect to a network using wireless, Ethernet or a modem.  Depending on your network, this can include many types of devices which makes securing your information even more important.
