6 FBI Lessons to Strengthen Enterprise Security


 

4. Keep critical data off the network:
Lesson:
Increase security manifolds by avoiding sensitive information on network.
As most of the critical data is often stolen over a network, enterprises can take advantage of the steps initiated by the FBI where they avoid posting or exchanging sensitive data over the network. This makes stealing the data more difficult and helps strengthening security.

5. Change in approach:
Lesson: Determine the response speed of your information security system
Organizations need to modify their approach when dealing with the IS system. As earlier the effectiveness of the IS system was measured on the basis of how it can help to impede the breach or on the number of detections, now it need to be changed to how quickly the IS system reports of the intrusions. This will help in acting quickly and preventing vast damages.

6. Coordinated Intelligence:
Lesson: Prioritizing potential threats and sharing such information
Organizations need to prioritize those security threats that may cause major damage to the business and reveal this information so that it becomes easier for others to understand the danger. This will not only help in effective use of the finite resources available with the organization but will also help in strengthening security for others.
