Technology and Telecommunications

The technology and telecommunications industry is characterized by rapid change. As the industry continues to evolve into a colossal network of interrelated and interdependent providers each organization's information technology infrastructure has become a critical growth enabler. The need for security and compliance management becomes more significant as these organizations continue to innovate and expand into new markets. Information is the lifeblood of this industry. Much of that information, including payment card numbers, healthcare information, social security numbers, and other personally identifiable information, is highly confidential.

The Security Landscape for Technology and Telecommunications

This industry segment has been targeted by hackers and organizations of all sizes having suffered security breaches. The threat landscape is also changing with hackers targeting confidential competitive company information that is often sold to the highest bidder. Potential losses as a result of a breach are significant. In addition to regulatory fines, lawsuits, and notification costs the organizations' reputation, often its' most valuable asset, may also be severely affected.
