Solutions Increased
security breaches along with continued governmental regulations and
evolving laws are forcing many organizations to closely analyze
security measures in place. While these drivers have lead
organizations to take action much work needs to continue.
According to the 2005 CSI/FBI
Computer Crime and Security Survey unauthorized use of computer
systems continues to increase with web site incidents increasing
dramatically.
It appears however that many
organizations continue to make security decisions based primarily on
financial analysis and do not report incidents to law enforcement
over concern for negative publicity.
The cost of security breaches can
be staggering and are often times underestimated in financial
models. New laws such as those in the state of California
which now require notification have significantly increased the cost
of incidents, created widespread public awareness and in some cases
have damaged company reputations beyond repair.
One well documented 2005 breach
against a credit information provider included the theft of 145,000
consumers' personal information. The information theft has
since been used in about 750 identity theft scams. The company
has since taken charges against its earnings of $5.3M in Q1 and
$6.0M in Q2 2005. The majority of the fees are for legal and
notification expenses. What however is the real cost the
company in moving the business forward?
In another incident a credit card
processor had a potential 40 million cards accessed by intruders.
The major credit card companies now refused to do business with this
organization.
