Invitation to CPE on Audit and Security of Networks & Database - 29 Sep 2011

Location:

Westown Hotel, Sheraton-Opebi link Road, Ikeja, Lagos

Description:

Synopsis:

Increasing incidents of information theft and data corruption have underscored the importance of securing corporate database and networks. But when considering information security and privacy, companies have continued to incorrectly assume that the threat is purely from external parties. Statistics clearly indicate that insiders commit the majority of data breach, a trend that has persisted over the last six years.

Most modern security tools – firewalls, intrusion detection and virus protection – are all designed to keep people and programs out of the network, not to protect from insiders. Because the database is the primary repository for intellectual property within most corporations and employees need access to this information to perform their jobs, the greater challenge is to enforce proper use of the database.

Organizations face the challenges of securing sensitive information and infrastructure in the midst of increased exposure to attack. Nevertheless, the more technical areas of IT audit and security of networks and databases have always been a problem area for IT auditor, risk and security professionals. In view of the above, this CPE is designed to explain what the main risks are, and how to secure and also plan the audit of networks and database security.
