Overview

Your organization faces significant security challenges in today’s world, where protecting vital business data can be an expensive and daunting proposition. You must proactively address security concerns that impact the applications, databases and other business assets that are essential to daily operations. Most importantly, you must ensure continuous business operations by mitigating risk at virtually every level of your organization — all while maintaining budgets
and achieving operational efficiencies.

Meeting these challenges requires new thinking; a new model for security management that weaves the disparate elements that protect your business assets into a complete and easily managed solution. The new security management model aligns security with business needs by integrating three critical components in the security environment: identity and access management, threat management and security information management. Each component must be open and flexible, easily integrating with one another, as well as with third party solutions.

When properly implemented, integrated security
management enables you to understand your security
environment in all of its complexity, turning security data into actionable information, obtaining timely answers to critical questions about your IT environment and, based on those answers, taking proactive, aggressive action to
protect assets and information across your entire
enterprise.
